These rankings are based off of their 2007 performance. The clear cut #1 Second Baseman during the pre-season is still playing "King of Hill" with the others. Chase Utley is a second baseman in a third basemans body. This guy just puts up monster numbers, and is a Top 5 Fantasy Player because of   more...

In order to win your fantasy league, you need to understand where the shortages of talent exist. There is no question that second base is the weakest position in this year's talent pool. Sure, you can make an arguement for catchers (especially if you are in a league that must start 2), but the   more...

A very stat-heavy article from Baseball Prospectus that helps determine who were and weren't the best clutch hitters of this past season. It's worth breezing through to see the names that show up on both lists. As you may have guessed, David Ortiz appears on one and Alex Rodriguez appears on the   more...

It's going to be an interesting season. We found out Greg Maddux is a bit of a closet nutjob. But compared to Brian and Marcus Giles, Maddux might be pretty damn normal. Some people would like to be a fly on the wall in certain places. If I was a fly in San Diego's locker room, I'd probably find   more...

Not sure if any of you caught it last night on Sportscenter, but the NL West was called the best division in baseball. This is a far cry from the supposed bottom dweller it has been called in the past, and where many figured it to be again. The NL West is the only NL division with three teams over   more...

A few words come to mind when I think of the San Diego Padres offense. Punchless, anemic, hapless, weak, maybe even effete or feminine. But as I was sitting here watching Joel Pineiro - Joel "FREAKING" Pineiro - toss seven shutout innings while only allowing four hits in a 5-0 Cardinals win, I   more...

Where's the best place to go when your power numbers are down and you're being referred to as a has-been at age 28? Why, cavernous Petco Park of course. At least when the media starts picking on Marcus Giles, his big brother will have his back and will give everyone limpers and dead-arms in his   more...

Marcus Giles has been signed by the Colorado Rockies and will compete for the starting second base job in 2008. Can he convert the highest batting average at Coors Field last year to long-term success?

If you don't know why the Braves are actively shopping Marcus Giles and Adam Laroche, here's the reason. "seven guys are eating up 80 percent or slightly more of the $80 million payroll. Yes, seven guys." GM John Schuerholz will have to be very creative this offseason.
