Pebble Hunting: Alex Anthopoulos’ Amazing Offseason

How the resurgent 2014 Blue Jays were built.

Why baseball missed an opportunity to get strict.

Life is about the journey, not the destination, but still: Does Bartolo Colon ever get to first base?

At what rate do big leaguers beget more major leaguers?

Featuring extreme exploits at second base.

Why we might be overestimating pitchers' offensive abilities. Yes, OVERestimating.

Congratulations, your team just walked off with an error. Now what do you do?

Which is worse for the pitcher: having Billy Hamilton on first, or David Ortiz on second?

Have the Marlins figured out how to beat the Giants at their own ballpark?

Despite replay, ejections aren't down (or aren't down by much) this year.

Is swinging on 3-0 counts a stathead philosophy or an old-school staple?

Reviewing the most egregious starts of the last decade and a half, with an assist from Old Hoss Radbourn.

And a division that's shaping up to be more fun than the Playoff Odds suggested.

Headfirst slides are under fire (perhaps for good reason), but they aren't without their virtues.

You're running a terrible team, and you get to do (almost) anything you want with it in order to learn more for the future. What do you do?

Neither the first nor the last reevaluation.
