The Sinker, the Pirates--no metaphors here--just Baseball

from PiratesProspects, via Will Carroll--aka The Injury Expert--cited this as the best baseball article he's read in years. It is good and worth reading (as a piece of writing, it does remind me of William Zinsser discussing how good writing can make any subject worthwhile; e.g., "So that's how he did it--slippery elm. I'll be damned.")
