    An Overdue Link Round-Up

    It's been a while since my last post linking to all of my recent writing across different sites, so let's take care of that!

    Over at The Crawfish Boxes, I had pre-trade deadline features on the relief pitcher market generally and Felipe Vazquez specifically. I also contributed a series preview for the Cardinals-Astros meet-up.

    And the newest feature over there is a piece looking at the Astros' chances at finishing the year with the best record in the majors, comparing their remaining schedule strength against the Dodgers, Yankees, and Twins. As a bonus, I even explained why they're favorites to set another franchise win record this year.

    I also did three game recaps along the way, including a loss to the A'sa loss to the Indians, and a win over the Mariners.

    If you haven't been following my posts here, I did a piece Hall of Fame weekend suggesting that other teams should follow the Mariners' lead in lobbying for Edgar Martinez, and even suggested a name for each team. And following the Astros acquiring Zack Greinke, I looked at his chances of reaching 3000 strikeouts, and the history of 3000 K teammates.

    And lastly, in non-baseball news, over at Out of Left Field, I did a piece suggesting some possible (albeit unlikely) future Disney live action remakes.

    Phew, that was a lot; I've been productive lately!

    Another Out of Left Field Update

    After a bit of a break, I posted another update to Out of Left Field, this one a sequel to last week's piece on the concept of film adaptations.  Check it out!

    Out of Left Field Updated-The Edge of Tomorrow

    I'm going to link to the first few Out of Left Field posts here as a reminder, since the site is still new (not yet sure how many, but at least a few). So, with that in mind, here's today's post on the new movie Edge of Tomorrow (which I very much enjoyed).

    An Experiment

    I had long been toying with the idea of adding essays about non-baseball subjects here. In the end, though, I decided it was best to keep all my writing separated into Baseball and Non-Baseball. To that end, I today started Out of Left Field. Right now, I'm thinking it'll be my writings on pop cultural things, but it may just evolve into whatever I feel like writing at the time. I also added a link to it on the main site.

    The inaugural post is up over there, reviewing The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Go check it out!

    The Numbers of Mr. 3000

    I've been a little busy, but I figured I'd give a heads up on some other writing I've been able to help with. Specifically, I contributed to this article analyzing the advanced stats of Bernie Mac's character in Mr. 3000. Check it out, it's a fun piece!
