Being a Phillies fan has never been easy. The team has amassed the most losses of any professional sports franchise in history, as well as the longest losing streak and the most last-place finishes in the major leagues. The year 1980 was redemption for a miserable, century-old legacy of losing. It was also the beginning of the end for a team that could have been among the very best in baseball throughout the decade. Between 1980 and 1983 the Philadelphia Phillies captured two pennants and a world championship. Legends like Tug McGraw, Steve Carlton, Mike Schmidt, and Pete Rose led the collection of homegrown products, veteran castoffs, and fair-haired rookies. If they had won another World Series, the team not only would have distanced themselves from a history of losing but would have established a championship dynasty. It never happened. The 1981 season was a watershed for both the Phillies and baseball. A players' strike led to a sixty-day work stoppage. The Phils, who had been in first place before the strike, were unable to regain their winning ways after play resumed. Labor relations between an increasingly powerful Players Association and inflexible owners became more acrimonious than ever before. Player salaries skyrocketed. Old loyalties were forgotten, and the notion of a homegrown team, like the 1980 Phillies, was a thing of the past. Almost a Dynasty details the rise and fall of the 1980 World Champion Phillies. Based on personal interviews, newspaper accounts, and the keen insight of a veteran baseball writer, the book convincingly explains why a team that had regularly made the post-season in the mid- to late 1970s, only to lose in the playoffs, was finally able to win its first world championship.

Описание: On September 6, 1967, in the midst of a pressure-filled six-week pennant race, the Red Sox, Tigers, Twins and White Sox stood together atop the American League. Never before or since have four teams tied for the lead in baseball’s final month. On three subsequent occasions including the season’s final day, three of them tied again. In 1967 the stakes were high because there were no playoffs. The pennant winner went directly to the World Series. The size, consistent tightness and duration of this pennant race make it unique. Here, for the first time, all four teams and their players are treated equally.The teams provide wonderful contrasts with substantial differences in skill sets, leadership and temperament. Overt psychological and physical intimidation played a major role throughout the season. The standings were volatile, and so were emotions. The stress of competing against so many other teams for so long was constant. Its effects on players, managers and teams were visibly corrosive in some cases and galvanizing in others. Tragically, some wilted or broke. Others responded heroically.

Описание: The All-Time Themed Baseball Teams, Volume 1 is a compilation of Major League all-star teams based on various themes. Theme examples include: U.S. Presidents, consisting of the best Major League players who happen to have a name that matches the last name of a U.S. President; Colors, representing players whose names contain one of the Crayola crayon colors. Other themes include: Food: Frank(s) and Bergers (Burgers), Bacon and Curry, Salmon and Roe and Ham and Fowl(er), these are just a few of my favorite food related player names that might be found on the All Food Team. Occupations: A (Max) Butcher, a (Dusty) Baker but no John Candelaria maker. This team looks for player last names that reference an occupation that someone might have. Animals: (Steve) Lyon, the Tigers and (Doug) Bair, oh my. This team consists of player names containing an animal. Last Name Is Also a First Name Team Whether you're Howard Frank or Frank Howard, you could be on this team containing players whose last name could also be used conventionally as a first name. Flora: A (Pete) Rose by any other name would still smell as sweet and is still not in the Hall of Fame. That is why we plant our (Bob) Seeds so that they grow a strong (Charley) Root system and blossom into a (Homer) Bush, all the while making sure our (Norm) Branch is not covered with (Mike) Ivie. Flowers, trees or flora parts are what these players need to have in their names to be considered for this theme team. Body Parts: You have to have strong (Ricky) Bones and a lot of (Jim Ray) Hart, but most of all, you must use your (Dave) Brain to its fullest potential. To be included on this team, the player's name must contain a body part. Financial: A (Brad) Penny for your thoughts. Personally, I'd rather put my (Don) Money in the (Ernie) Banks or a money market (Lee) Pfund so I can earn a good deal of (Dave) Cash. This team consists of players that have financial terms in their names. Locations: From (Kelly) Paris to (Gus) Britain, from (Al) Holland to (Clyde) Milan, from (Miguel) Cairo to (Frank) Brazil - though all-in-all, I'd rather take a rocket ship to the (Wally) Moon. This theme team includes players with well-known geographic locations in their names. Smiths: A team composed of players whose last name is Smith. Jones: Not to be outdone by the Smiths, a team of players whose last name is Jones. Gonzalez/ Martinez Team: The influence of the Latin player finds its way into a theme team with players whose last name is either Gonzalez or Martinez. Weather: One might expect some (Bob) Hale coming in from the west that might change to some (JT) Snow. Don't expect any (Josh) Fogg, but there could be some (Rich) Gale force winds blowing in, leading to a big (Jake) Freeze. The forecast calls for a heavy dose of (Tim) Raines leading to a potential (Curt) Flood. It won't be long before (Ed) Summers is upon us, so have a (Harry) Bright day. This all (Roy) Weatherly team contains players whose names might be mentioned in a weather report. Z: This team contains only Major Leaguers whose last name begins with the letter Z. Automotive: Whether you drive a (Whitey) Ford, a (Jose) Mercedes or a (Jack) Bentley, each of us can do our part for the environment by not using (Pat) Diesel in our (Chuck) Carr. This theme team consists of players whose names represent a car, truck or motorcycle brand, manufacturer, part or other automotive term. Berry/Bery: Phil Rizzuto never referred to me as a (Earl) Huckleberry. However, he once ate my (Darryl) Strawberry and (Dan) Quisenberry pie. Players that feature "berry" or "bery" somewhere in their names will comprise this delicious team. What's in a name? This is not really a theme team but a list of some of the best and worst names of Major League Baseball players, by position.

Описание: An unprecedented look inside the world of baseball scouting and evaluation from Fangraphs' lead prospect analysts
For the modern major league team, player evaluation is a complex, multi-pronged, high-tech pursuit. But far from becoming obsolete in this environment--as Michael Lewis' Moneyball once forecast--the role of the scout in today's game has evolved and even expanded. Rather than being the antithesis of a data-driven approach, scouting now represents an essential analytical component in a team's arsenal.
Future Value is a thorough dive into the world of the contemporary scout--a world with its own language, methods, metrics, and madness. From rural high schools to elite amateur showcases, from the back fields of spring training to major league draft rooms, FanGraphs' Eric Longenhagen and Kiley McDaniel break down the key systems and techniques used to assess talent. It's a process that has moved beyond the quintessential stopwatches and radar guns to include statistical models, countless measurable indicators, and a broader international reach. Practical and probing, discussing wide-ranging topics from tool grades to front office politics, this is an illuminating exploration of how to watch baseball and see the future.
