im a member

of them and basically every other nl sb blog

also a member of the bluejays mariners and orioles blogs so i can talk to them when we play them, friendly not starting shit of course

its nice to learn about other teams players and see thier perspective vs the braves

what i have learned is almost every team we play everyone knows if you get to the 8th without a lead you are going to lose because of Venters/Kimbrel, yet maybe one of our best rp EOF who leads the bp with era and stranded runners nobody even knows

Mariners have hands down the best blog on that site lol.

Yeah there's a lot of good baseball blogs out there. Last season I was working two jobs, but now that I only got one I've had a shit ton more time to read them.

Seems like sabermetrics and other advanced stats are going mainstream, which is nice I guess.

Really would like to see a turn away from ERA, batting average, wins, saves, etc.

Yeah lol. Unfortunately the casual baseball fan will always judge pitchers by wins and ERA, and hitters by their batting average and RBIs.

And fielders by their fielding percentage LOL.
