Baseball and Wikipedia

Brendan Gawlowski on February 03, 2013 @ 08:31PM
If you spend a lot of time reading about baseball on the internet, you're bound to wind up on Wikipedia eventually. It's an amazing resource and while the site's proponents are often reminded that it's less than scholarly, even Wikipedia's detractors have to admit that it's a pretty impressive database…

Kelly Shoppach Could be a Mariner [Updated]

Brendan Gawlowski on January 28, 2013 @ 02:17PM
UPDATE 1-29, 3:53: Sources on Twitter are indicating that the Mariners have signed Shoppach, pending his completion of a physical. Here's Heyman and Churchill. Buckle up if you haven't heard the news: Kelly Shoppach could be coming to Seattle. The basis for this rumor is Jason Churchill's Twitter…

Pro Ball NW Podcast, Episode 9 - Baseball Hooligans

Jon Shields on January 26, 2013 @ 07:31PM
Jon Shields and Brendan Gawlowski discuss how a cup series running alongside the regular season would play in baseball, soccer fans versus baseball fans, gut feelings about how much impact Safeco Field's new dimensions will have, players who are auditioning the new dimensions for future free agents,…

Time for Bourn?

Jon Shields on January 26, 2013 @ 09:16AM
Back in October, MLB Trade Rumors' Tim Dierkes ranked Michael Bourn as the third best free agent behind Zack Greinke and Josh Hamilton, but Bourn's market never developed. His most recent employer, the Atlanta Braves, eliminated any chance at a reunion by signing B.J. Upton and trading for Justin…

Michael Bourn and the Letter of the Law

Brendan Gawlowski on January 25, 2013 @ 07:53PM
With Spring Training only two and a half weeks away, most of the prime free agents have been signed. Shaun Marcum fell off the board today, leaving Michael Bourn as pretty much the only prominent free agent without a new home. Some have hoped that the Mariners, with a question mark in center field and…

Potential Catcher Signings

Jon Shields on January 24, 2013 @ 10:48PM
CBS Sports' Jon Heyman has confirmed that Ronny Paulino is Seattle-bound, adding that he'll join the Mariners on a minor league contract. When I wrote about Paulino the other day I made the incorrect assumption that he was being brought in on a Major League deal as the primary backup to Jesus Montero.…

If Smoak Clicks

Jon Shields on January 22, 2013 @ 11:49PM
Justin Smoak owns a .223/.306/.377 batting line through 1,421 career plate appearances across three seasons. That's hardly acceptable from a glove-first shortstop, but it's downright dreadful for a lumbering first baseman expected to be a force in the middle of a big league lineup. Now 26 years…

Griffey, Felix, TV Money, Verducci Effect

Brendan Gawlowski on January 22, 2013 @ 05:46PM
There was a lot of news today in Marinerland and Baseballworld, so I thought I'd make things easy and compile all the information in one place. First up, the Mariners have announced that they are inducting Ken Griffey Jr. into the team's Hall of Fame. Griffey's induction comes as no surprise as the…

Mariners to Sign Paulino, Commit to Montero?

Jon Shields on January 22, 2013 @ 12:33AM
The Seattle Mariners have agreed to sign veteran catcher Ronny Paulino to a one year contract worth $1 million plus incentives, according to reports out of Mexico (1, 2), pending physical. Paulino can be viewed as a backup catcher as opposed to a part-time catcher (if that makes sense). The 31…

The Musial Cup

Brendan Gawlowski on January 21, 2013 @ 05:08AM
Over the past year my sports preferences have changed quite a bit. I'm still as big of a fan of baseball as I ever was, but my interest in both basketball and football has dramatically waned. I used to be a slave to the television on Saturday and Sunday afternoons in the winter. This year, I watched…
