It's 1 am, and it's been a long Saturday night. This is going to be interesting. I've broken down the issues with the Knicks performance into the following: 1) Terrible Help defense 2)...
Took the time to plug in some numbers for a lot of the rumored options that have been out there for our available shooting guard spot. Though for our shooting guard spot I think we need something...
Made a few crazy trade idea posts earlier but those were crazy. Going to take a look at the Knicks current roster, the rumors, and see what we can do. Going to assume a few things just for the...
Hey guys, I'm a long time reader, first time poster, die hard fan like the rest of you. Like some of you, I'm also a numbers guy (if you haven't seen Aaron Barzilai's work over at B...
I'm going to get right into it. The Mets current roster has a few holes I'd like to address: 1) Crappy Long Term Payroll Commitments via mopupduty.com 2) Inconsistent (that's the nicest...
It's that time of year again. The suppressed hope wrapped in a blanket of cynicism and dread. But hey, we're the Mets. so you signed up for this. My AAOP centers on a couple of ideas 1) I love Jose...
Question: How can we improve the quality of this roster in the short and long term in a cost efficient and timely manner? Problems/Holes/Issues: I’ve considered 5 glaring areas of interest...
Well 2010 was done in the spring training, so let's take a peek at 2011. Moves to be done: Personnel to let go: Manuel, Minaya. Players to let Walk: Castillo (If you can pay Frenchy and Escobar...
Let me be the first to say that I have loved the Mets since birth, and have suffered as you all have with this love. Though I believe that losing this season (as in letting Minaya ride it out and...
With a title like that, it's tough for this post not to sound embellished. I will try to be as clear and neutral as I present this but I am not perfect. As far as 2010 is concerned. I have thrown...
The Mets ended 2009 with the 4th lowest team WAR in baseball at 12.1. The losses of Fernando Tatis (1.5 WAR), Ramon Castro (.5 WAR), Ryan Church (.4 WAR), Brian Schneider (.3 WAR), Cory Sullivan...
Regardless of If we go with the assumption that Holliday is not receiving an 8 year deal, but in fact a 6 year deal, The Cardinals are refusing to go above about the 16 million mark. With this...
Well, this is perhaps my fantasy. But to me this all makes sense. 1) Make a push for Matt Holliday Going by some calculations over at Drivelinemechanics, I think a contract in the range of 5...
For most of you outside of the NY and immune to the hysteria of NY sports radio with callers who suggest the Mets "Package Luis Castillo, Daniel Murphy and a prospect for Joe Mauer or Miguel...

I'm a realist. The Mets have no chance of making the playoffs. So they should probably start dealing. Let's see if these work 1)Mets trade Carlos Delgado, Sean Green, and Jeff Francouer to the...
Fernando is getting the start tonight in RF. John's stance on FMart and how the Mets have rushed him has been well documented over the past couple years, and I would have to agree with it....
Let me preface this by saying, I'm sorry if this comes off as spam or an unrelated plug of a film, but let me assure you this is very prevelant to baseball. Bigger Stronger Faster* is a film...
Baseball Scouting is almost as old the game itself. The methods of finding a good baseball player have seemingly stayed pretty consistent over the years until the new millennium. For about a...
I know everyone has an opinion on this board when it comes to prospects so I thought it would be interesting to get your perspective on what seems like the biggest candy store in all of baseball:...
Ok so I've got a pretty good idea on what I'm going to take with the 12th pick. But now as the draft moves on, I'm kind of at a loss. My next pick is 77 followed by 107 137 and 167 respectively.So...
Hello, this is my first year doing the mock draft on here, but I'm confident that I will do a good job given my knowledge. I will use this thread as an open forum, where anyone who cares enough can...
I know a lot of people here including John and myself love Sulentic. Yet, he's batting under 200 this year.Obviously, I'm far from drawing conclusions, given the fact that he's right out of high...
I've been watching this guy a little here and there, and I must say I've been impressed.I know it's a small sample space, but in a tough hitters park like Clinton, Johnny has put up good numbersw...
I've been searching for a software where you can compose you're own stats and have it do the calculations instead of going by calculator, anyone have anything like this, I remember there was one a...
I've been having a little fun, in a secluded sort of way, calculating and adjusting minor league equivelents for the top minor leaguers, incorperating such things as Park Factor, Pitching/Hitting...
