The MLB is the highest level a player can reach in professional baseball. More specifically, MLB refers to the organization that operates North American professional baseball's two major leagues, the National League and the American League. On an organizational level, MLB effectively operates as a single "league," and as such it constitutes one of the major professional sports leagues in North America.

The 2009 National League Cy Young race is an interesting situation. There are at least two pitchers who make definitive cases for the coveted award, and choosing the winner will be a difficult decision for those forced to vote. While some great pitching was pretty commonplace throughout the entire National League, the race really boils down to two pitchers. Guys like Matt Cain, Adam Wainwright, Jair Jurrjens, Johan Santana, Wandy Rodriguez, and others were absolutely great this season, with many of them having career years. At the end of the day though, the best pitching was hands down performed by Tim Lincecum, the young ... Read Full Story

Free agency filing as begun, and so have extension signings and options (Manny Ramirez decided to come back to the Dodgers, and the Phillies brought Cliff Lee back). With the Yankees still celebrating, it will soon be time for Brian Cashman to make some decisions. The sad part is that all of these 2009 Yankees are great guys and all of them want to come back for 2010 and beyond. Money has never been a real issue for signing free agents. However it is always wise to bring in a young minor leaguer to replace an aging veteran. That being said the Yanks can ... Read Full Story

We all know that Hideki Matsui helped the Yankees win the World Series with some clutch hits in the playoffs and we saw his bashing of Pedro Martinez in game six of the World Series of 2009. Hideki Matsui wants to be back but will the Yankees bring him back? The Yankees have a plethera of outfielders and all Matsui could do is DH since he has surgically repaired knees. He is a Red Sox killer however but we have Austin Jackson waiting down in the minors. Jackson did hit .300 but with only four home runs. Would the Yankees take the chance of ... Read Full Story
Japanese baseball will have at least one American manager for the eighth consecutive year in 2010, as Marty Brown takes over as field boss of the Tohoku Rakuten Golden Eagles after four years managing the Hiroshima Carp. Trey Hillman began the string when he became skipper of the Nippon Ham Fighters in 2003, and the trend reached its peak in 2007 when there were four U.S. managers: Brown, Hillman, Bobby Valentine with the Chiba Lotte Marines...

about having the first Partial Hall of Fame Vote of the season!  Woooooooo! Like many Mariners fans, I think Edgar Martinez was the most loyal, most dependable, and most productive of anyone to ever put on a Mariners uniform. I loved Ken Griffey Jr. and Alex Rodriguez when they were Mariners, but Martinez was a cut above in many ways. Is there anything fans can do to help get him into the Hall of Fame next year? Well, Dennis, unless you are...

The Boston Red Sox have acquired Jeremy Hermida from the Florida Marlins in exchange for a pair of minor league left-handers in Hunter Jones and Jose Alvarez. Neither pitcher is considered a top prospect, as both are relief pitchers who offer little to no upside for fantasy baseball owners. Hermida, however, is a different story. Once considered a top prospect, Hermida has done little to back up that billing since debuting for the Marlins in...

The 2009 World Series has ended and 2009-2010 hot stove league has started. The Seattle Mariners are in need of a power hitter as they have one of the worst offenses in the league (OPS, OBP, BA, R, BB are league worst, HR ranked 11th in the league). Who should they go after? Big free agents like Matt Holliday are probably untouchable as a big city team will offer him a huge contract the Mariners can't match. So, the M's need to go after guys...
