Offseason Prospectus #26: The Atlanta Braves
I’ve got very little love for the Atlanta Braves. I’ll never be able to get past the abusive relationship they had with the early-’90s Pirates. They are a team from the Deep South who didn’t have the good sense not to employ an unabashedly racist reliever (John Rocker). [...]

BBA Ballot: NL Manager of the Year
Originally posted at Marlin Maniac. As part of the Baseball Bloggers Alliance, my job is to spout my opinion on end-of-season awards and make sure we kick the crap out of the BBWAA (they deserve it).
