Writing a baseball article and taking shots at the Garfield board game of 1981, feels good. This is what I was meant to do with my life
If Tanner Scott is worth four and $72 million, and Edwin Díaz three and $69 million, I'm excited to see who the Dodgers sign next year for two years and $66 million

Before the big news happened this morning, I wrote up all the little news from the past couple of days. Thoughts on Ferrer/Ford, Soroka, Matz, and... Drew Anderson, apparently

"If we’ve learned anything out of this process, about Kent or about the others, it’s two things: that it’s easier, mathematically, to get 75% of the vote when there’s 16 voters than when there’s 394 of them; and that not only is it an honor to be nominated, it’s also a mystery."

I've had my head down lately, and will probably continue to do so for a bit, but I should remind folks that BP360 is out now, and for a limited time you can get a one-year subscription, a copy of the book that's killing me, and a T-shirt that isn't killing me, all for one price. It's a good deal!

I've long written at the intersection of baseball, history, and politics @baseballprospectus.com. The freedom I've had has been unlike any other publication I've written for. I'd like to repay that, so once again, show me a new subscription and I'll write your request for a column or player comment.
ICYMI: Our rates our going up as of 1/1, making now through 12/31 the absolute best time to lock in a year subscription. You can extend a subscription via the BP360 promotion that's currently available, but that's the only way.
hey everyone, today we're announcing something at BP that is both long overdue and something I wish we could keep holding off on, but the reality is we can't: a price change to our subscription.
We'll continue to provide one of the best value props out there, and keep earning your support.

Once again they’ve decided to time the Winter Meetings with the stretch run of the Annual. I can’t say I’m thrilled, but I also can’t say I’m surprised

Netflix is going to create the Casablanca Extended Universe, but it's really just all the stuff happened in December 1941. First season will be about the war, but the second season will be about Lisenba v. California, the Chungpu earthquake in Taiwan, and the death of mathematician Émile Picard

Last night I wrote up the Cedric Mullins and Miguel Rojas contracts. One is kind of happy and fun, the other features a Mike Elias quote that comes as close as baseball gets to Vogon poetry

Feels increasingly like the internet is hiding parts of itself from us. I know this because there's no way there aren't at least 50 books of midwestern poetry out there in the world with the exact title "Eating Over the Sink: A Man's Dance"
