Way back in the 20th century, Bill James wrote the first essential book about baseball managers. Chris Jaffe has just written the second.

From now on, whenever I have a question about a manager, Jaffe's book will be the first and last one I reach for.

John Brattain Memorial Fund

The Hardball Times has set up a memorial fund for John Brattain's family. He left behind a wife and two teenage daughters.

Four years ago, I found from personal experience how generous the online community can be to its own in their hour of need. I am now literally begging you to be even more generous than you were to me.

Still a Touch Early 2009 Projected Standings - ZiPS edition

Dan Szymborski at Baseball Think Factory has created a 2009 ZiPS projection disk for Diamond Mind. so I've run 100 iterations and the results are below. This will probably be the last set of projected standings I post before starting my full set of projections. I'm assuming that Alex Rodriguez will miss 30% of the games here.
