Great stuff. Personally I expect hellickson and ogando to regress a bit this year rather than continue to pitch how they did last year. Ogando was shaken up late in the world series last year. I’m not saying that wasn’t expected as a rookie on that stage but it definitely doesn’t sit well on a kids head for the offseason. Keep up the great work man!

KO great blog, you had a awesome show today, you really are this generations Murrow and love how tolerant you are to women and how you defend and stand up for them everday. Keep it up. All you have to be is yourself and you will always have a fan in me.

Hey Keith – looks like the Yanks got ripped off by signing Ibanez. If the numbers you cite accurately predict his performance this year, his departure from the Phils could be a good thing. Pap has good numbers from last year with the Red Sox and I hope that he performs well for the Phils this year. Our pitching looks solid (i.e. Halladay, Lee) and Howard seems to be ready for action soon. I want a Phillies/Yankees World Series because payback is a b***h.

Typo correction: (“his SENSE hasn’t been good in a decade, and his bat is barely good enough to fill a DH role”) ..play.saw Lavarnway for AA Portland Sea Dogs; he can outhit and out “de-sense” Salty Dog…

It’s a preseason ritual– Keith forecasting gloomy things for the Yankees. Where were they supposed to finish last year? Third or fourth? Instead they won the division. But I’m not a numbers-cruncher. What the Cards did last year was magical and I doubt could have been predicted.

Keith, thanks, it is good to know, before I buy it myself, that instead of the BP downgrading the entire Royals roster they’ve narrowed it down to two individuals. Huzzah!…and thanks for the occasional reminder that baseball and liberal have more in common than just Francoeur and his strike zone. Cheers.

Brother Keith:

Thank you for this. Thanks for your show. I’d love to watch a ballgame with you sometime. I’ve been on a personal boycott until McCourt is gone. Once he’s gone, I can go back to Chavez Ravine.

Your pal,

Dave Perez

Are PECOTA projections done by former Royals utility man Bill Pecota?

Congrats for Steve Carlton. In my opinion in baseball the pitcher is the most important player on the field.
Peace, David
