Federal League Division Series BRK vs. BTM
(Preview)
I spent over an hour writing this up only to lose it to cyberspace. I can't do it again. This was an unbelievably competive series that saw two 15 inning games and a 10 inning game. 4 games were dedided by one run. The only bad game was game 7 as BTM took the series with a 10-0 win. Jon got shafted with a 15...

SHI/PBG Trade
(Preview)
Shiner continued their makeover by filling that huge CF void and also adding to the already impressive bullpen. That required sacrificing a couple beloved prospects, but hopefully the new guys will earn their keep. PBG trades Chris Young and Grant Balfour to SHI for Nick Castellanos and Kellin D...

BRK Offseason
(Preview)
No real idea what to do with BRK next year, but do have some gaps: Options: Ubaldo Jimenez - regressed this year, could be worth a flyer for someone setting up for an out year. Zach Britton / Bud Norris - good young starters. Could flip for older but better guys. Most prospects available - including Belt a...

Another Quality Starter Available
(Preview)
Although I'd love to keep him, it makes much more sense for Shiner to trade Mark Buehrle off his A contract to a very affordable B2. Although I'm open to other potential upgrades, the top priority is filling that huge Vernon Wells size void in CF. Even if you don't want Buehrle, let me know if you're sho...

SHI-SPR trade
(Preview)
Shiner overreacts to Ryan Roberts' playoff grand slam by sending a King's ransom for him. I wish. But they do send Martin Prado and Jonathan Garcia for him.

Quality starter available
(Preview)
Kyle Lohse is available for trade. B1 200k salary. Won't come cheap. Could be the starter that puts you over the top. 30 starts, 1.17 whip, 3.39 era. Looking for middle infielder with a future, picks, prospects, or cash in this deal.

Rookies and Free Agents
(Preview)
Preliminary versions of the 2012 Rookie and Free Agent lists have been posted at the site. Please note that there will almost certainly be some minor changes as I typically overlook someone or misclassify a player or two and our more compulsive, er, helpful owners point out my errors. Thanks, -Tom
