We are back today with another question from a reader of the site. Keep these types of questions coming. I would rather write about what you want to hear. Nathan wrote to me the other day and asked the following question:
How would you rank the following waiver wire outfielders: Milton Bradley, Moises Alou, […]

Well, once again, I am a day late in getting this week’s On The Wire segment. Over the past two days I have celebrated my 10th wedding anniversary, and Brady’s 1st birthday. So needless to say, it has been a very busy last few days. So let’s get started

I’m starting off-topic with a trade I received in a 6×6 (Holds, OBP) 2nd-year keeper league (we retain only 5, alas). He sends me D-TRain and Dunn for Rios and Rafael Soriano.

It’s the New Year and a fair number of position rankings are available for everyone to check out.

Minor adjustments will occur here and there, but especially with veterans most people’s minds are already pretty […]

Luke Scott

I was going through some articles on Baseball Prospectus, and I ran across Joe Sheehan’s view on Luke Scott after he was traded to the Orioles.  Basically he doesn’t think that Scott is going to produce great numbers in Baltimore.  But he had this to say:
“Yes, he’s an upgrade in left field in the short […]

UPDATE:
I found this quote of rotoworld.com (and a reader e-mailed me as well) about Colby Rasmus 2 days after I wrote the article on him:
General manager John Mozeliak said Tuesday that 21-year-old Colby Rasmus will be given a chance to claim the Cardinals’ starting job in center field during spring training.
This is a turnaround from […]

The big trade of Miguel Cabrera and Dontrelle Willis to the Tigers have been well documented, and I am not going to able to offer much more then what has already been stated.  However, I have received several e-mails regarding the two main prospects that were sent to the Marlins.  Here are my thoughts on […]
