Brandon Webb Article
(By: benbrown47)

Here is an article about Brandon Webb from Fangraphs:

Daily Graphing - Brandon WebbMarch 15, 2006 at 7:59 pm · Filed under Daily Graphings

Remember back in 2003 when Dontrelle Willis won the National League Rookie of the Year award? If it weren’t for a few extra wins, perhaps Brandon Webb would have won the award instead, since his 2.84 ERA, 180 innings, 172 strikeouts and 1.15 WHIP were all better than Willis. Since then, Webb has been quite consistent throwing over 200 innings in his past two seasons with an ERA just under 3.60. He only has 21 wins to show for his effort, but he’s only received an average of 3 runs per start from his offense, so it hardly...

Is Rickie Week or Strong?
(By: benbrown47)

One of my biggest question marks is Rickie Weeks at second base. Recently he has had problems with his right oblique. Here is what CBS Sportsline says about him.

2B Rickie Weeks is making slow progress from a strained right oblique. Weeks has been fielding groundballs and playing catch, but he has not been cleared to swing a bat. The Brewers hope to have him back in games by the end of the week. (Updated 03/20/2006).

He should be fine physically, but with all his talent, his stats were not good last year. He struck out way too much, which is not a concern, but he also doesn't walk. I...

Wily Mo and Arroyo Trade Helps!
(By: benbrown47)

Good News
The Wily Mo trade for Arroyo is really going to help my team. With Wily gone that guarantees that Kearns will stay in the Reds Outfield. He doesn't have to worry about being traded or having a bad day and getting benched. It is also great for the two players getting traded. They both will get the opportunity they both deserved. Living in St. Louis, I got to see the Reds play a lot, and always wondered why someone as talented as Wily Mo never got to play regularly. I see a similar sitution as Ortiz, who was waived by the Twins.

Bad news
It looks like the Big Hurt is back to his...

Fantasy Draft
(By: benbrown47)

This is my first installment of my journey through the 2006 version of the Baseball Geeks fantasy baseball draft.

Man I am exhausted! I just got done with the Baseball Geeks 20 team draft. 420 picks, I am officially a Baseball Geek!

For Christmas I got the best present in the world, and IPOD! I have been listening to every podcast possible on fantasy baseball, and felt I had great grasp on a good strategy. All I have to say is that I am thankful I have my draft for my money league in a couple weeks.

As far as my picks go, Vlad fell to me a #4. This suprised me. In my normal...
