Friday Linkage
- Viva El Birdos on Murray Chass, Stan Musial, and blogging.
- The Platoon Advantage on MC Hammer ... baseball pioneer.
- Wezen-ball details the Bob Uecker filmography.
- I'm still planning my own thing, but MGL's review of The Beauty of Short Hops basically nails it.
- Speaking of MGL, he's appearing at this Boston event in May, and it's going to be a real doozy.
- I was sorry to read about the passing of Charlie Metro, a baseball man through and through.
- If you just can't get enough, Jay Schreiber revisits the Oliver Perez binder.
- Seems like if Joe Maddon can't handle Manny Ramirez, nobody can.
- According to Dave Cameron, Chase Utley is baseball's most irreplaceable player. I'm not sure that's true ... Hanley Ramirez? Ryan Zimmerman? Robinson Cano? It's actually an interesting exercise. Maybe somebody with some free time this weekend can figure it out?
- Speaking of Ryan Zimmerman, apparently he's an excellent bad-ball hitter. Or was last year, anyway. And Jose Bautista was the champion.
