With great hair comes great responsibility. But, is pitching success included in the large bundle of assets that come with having great hair? In the case of Burch Smith, I certainly believe so. The soon to be 28-year-old pitcher in the Royals organization boasts wondrous locks and, more importantly, elite

It’s been a slow off-season. Like, a really slow off-season. With the hot stove frigid, fantasy baseball players haven’t had many ways to quench their thirst, unless they’ve thrown themselves head-first into football, basketball, or hockey. January and February can be some of the darkest months of the year (figuratively

There are many pitcher stats that we review and analyze to predict regression or breakout. While there is plenty of focus on BABIP (batting average on balls in play), HR/FB (home-run to flyball ratio) and ERA (earned run average), LOB% (Left On Base percentage), is a stat that I think

Congratulations on surviving another off-season. Now that the new year is upon us, it’s time to spend the next month  traveling across the positional landscape, labeling players with numbers that correspond to their value. It’s the very definition of freedom. A ton of hard work was put into these rankings,

From the 21st of January to the 20th of February, the writers at TDG will be taking you through our rankings position-by-position. As I mentioned in the primer, this year we’re doing things a little differently. Instead of having my personal rankings up on this site, like last year, these

If you have been following along all week here at TDG, you have read almost a dozen articles about players that we believe can be quality last minute additions to your roster before free agency ends. If you listened to our advice, you could have very easily turned over your

To say that the majority of baseball fans are down on Ian Kennedy would be an understatement. When I mentioned that I was going to be writing about Kennedy, a colleague of mine at another site said “Good luck finding something something to write about that s**tbag”. I completely understand
