Jon Paul Morosi lists his top 20 FA pitchers not named John Lackey. If a team needs a #2 or #3 starting pitcher to bolster their rotation, they're looking at: Andy Pettite -- who'll be resigned by the Yankees anyways -- Rich Harden, Ben Sheets, Randy Wolf or Jason Marquis. Ouch.

I know this isn't an actuall "link" to why it won't be hard to deal DLowe, but you gotta read between the lines. The FA starting pitchers behind John Lackey are absolutely horrible.

It's a good article explaining how BABIP works for those of us who aren't complete stat heads.

Looks like this guy is running a series on advanced stats. Could make for some interesting reading throughout the off season.

He lists the Braves trading for Adrian Gonzalez at number 4. What do you guys think, do we need to trade for Adrian Gonzalez?

He's one of those guys who hands around in a baseball career however he can. I always liked him when he was on the Braves.

Well, that should hike his expected salary a bit...

I'm really looking forward to meeting this kid. I'm hoping he's a good guy in person because I'm loving everything I hear from him in print.

Some days you just feel like stirring up trouble. Here's a link to a mlbtraderumors review of the always hot button topic of the Mark Teixeira trade. Discuss.

And Go! on the Heyward line

Hmmm...if he's healthy, I wouldn't be opposed to him. However, Willingham is a horrible in the field and often looks like a goofball when running down fly balls. I guess he can actually run tho...unlike GA and his professional gliding.

Thoughts?
