Neyer: Ryan Howard is basically Shin-Soo Choo
The Hardball Times (Free subscription) | 28/10/2009
There have been a lot of people who have followed in Rob Neyer's footsteps over the years, but there still isn't anyone better at writing stuff that pisses off mainstream baseball writers : Ryan Howard is pretty good. I mean, he's no Shin-Soo Choo. But pretty good, for sure. You probably think I'm just some snot-nosed blogger trying to make a name for myself. You're right. After all, it's patently...

Unrewarding campaign for Indians
MLB (Free subscription) | 16/11/2009
While players the likes of Shin-Soo Choo and Asdrubal Cabrera had strong seasons, no one on the Tribe merited serious consideration for any of baseball's major awards.

In the Land of Pravda, Ben Zobrist is the Invisible Man Sitting Atop the Clouds

... and so did Chone Figgins and Franklin Gutierrez although neither is to be seen on this list. Shin-Soo Choo? Marco Scutaro ? Ian Kinsler ? Nada. But Michael Young is present for some unknown reason. The writer doesn't know what WAR is most likely. That's no crime. Hell, he probably has no idea about defensive value either. Fine. Zobrist ranks third in AL OPS. That would put him behind Mauer...

Blogging the Offseason: Cleveland Indians

... in a rebuilding mode, would you entertain the thought of trading him this offseason? Next to Shin-Soo Choo possibly having to serve military time in South Korea, this is the million dollar question. When the Lee/Martinez trades went down, I could have put money on the fact that Sizemore would have wanted out. He was promptly shut down with his elbow issues, and really hasn't been heard from...

... can shelve a pitcher for 12-18 months, but position players could return within 6-9 months. Shin-Soo Choo , for example, underwent Tommy John surgery in September 2007 and was back in the outfield for Cleveland in May of 2008. However, because this is Nady's second time having the procedure, there could be unforseen complications. Despite missing just about the entire 2009 season, Nady still...

... , or Alex Rodriguez , or Jason Bay , or Jason Bartlett, or Adam Lind , or Kendry Morales , or Shin-soo Choo, or Jason Kubel . Five of those players were approximately Jeter's equal at the plate, and seven were unquestionably his superior. In addition, for an award intended to go to the top hitter in each league, one has to notice that Jeter didn't actually finish #1 in any meaningful offensive...

Walkoff Walk (Free subscription) | 27/10/2009
As the playoffs and award season gets underway, we want to take a gander at some players who had outstanding seasons in 2009 but whose teams ended up just shy of making the postseason and who will (most likely) not pick up any fancy trophies. Quite a consolation prize: a round of golf and a write-up on a low circulation sports blog. Previously, Garrett Jones , Danny Haren , Shin Soo Choo , Wandy...

Indians Inattention
Bugs and Cranks (Free subscription) | 29/10/2009
Think Indians fans had a hard time sitting still while they watched former aces C.C. Sabathia and Cliff Lee square off in Game 1 of the Series last night? You can’t possibly imagine the lengths the players went to in an effort to avoid thinking about it at all. Shin-Soo Choo looked for the best place to hide just in case the South Korean military came to collect on those two years of...

Pedro Martinez: “Who Are You, Kareem Garcia?”
The Big Lead (Free subscription) | 29/10/2009
Pedro Martinez: Don Zimmer still hates Pedro Martinez . For obvious reasons - Red Sox, Mets - we feel the same way. Want to laugh at Pedro? This video is terrific: “Who are you, Kareem Garcia, to try to test Pedro Martinez, a proven player for 10 years'” Here’s something for Phillies fans - ESPN’s Rob Neyer crafts an argument claiming that Shin-Soo Choo is better than Ryan Howard . (Not a joke.)...
