"Scattering The Ashes has all the feels. Paul Russell Semendinger's debut novel taps into every emotion. You'll laugh. You'll cry. You'll reexamine those relationships that give your life meaning." — Don Burke, writer at The New York Post
"This charming and meticulously researched book will remind you of baseball’s power to change and enrich lives far beyond the diamond."
—Jonathan Eig, New York Times best-selling author of Luckiest Man, Opening Day, and Ali: A Life
"A young man from Compton rises to the highest levels of baseball greatness.
Considered one of the classiest baseball players ever, this is Roy White's story, but it's also the story of a unique period in baseball history when the Yankees fell from grace and regained glory and the country dealt with societal changes in many ways."

the MVP
on the last podcast with Paul, EJ stated a couple things, 1. if Judge and Raliegh were roughly equal in WAR he would vote Raliegh for MVP. 2. since Judge is not putting up close to 11 WAR as he has in 2 recent seasons his season is kind of a normal good MVP season
first the WAR
Baseball Reference
Judge 9.8
Ohtani 8.6 (7.5 hitting, 1.1 pitching)
Raliegh 7.3
Fangraphs
Judge 10.1
Ohtani 9.1 (hitting 7.2, pitching 1.9)
Raliegh 9.0
I actually had this post almost written when my computer turned off and the whole thing got lost. I had listed about a dozen HOF players- many never reached 9 WAR once let alone 3 times a…
Judge had a very disappointing game this afternoon
zero home runs
to be clear, I am NOT extremely disappointed to be playing the WC. LOTS of teams have played for the WS from the WC spot. i admit there are definitely disadvantages. I think it is incorrect to think that there are zero advantages.
that said, I think we are definitely a better team than the jays and while I give them credit, I still hate losing to them. most of all, I hate it that we only needed one game and all of us can point to... what? 20 games that we gave away? is it more than that?
so is this the time and place to ask which loss is the most frustrating? I know many will say th…
Paul, can you find the pre-season win-prediction post and comments? I'd love to see how everyone did. I think I said 92 wins, but I don't remember.
i am not really convinced that the Jays are a particularly good team
BUT, I must give them credit. when they lost 2 in a row to boston and let us tie them, I thought they would be unable to carry the weight and would fail to hang on for the division lead
instead they won 4 games in a row to end the season. credit to them!
will we see the RH heavy lineup in game 1 vs Crochet? I feel we definitely should, but I am not sure if Boone, etc... will have the necessary stuff to start a playoff game with Grisham, Rice, and Jazz on the bench
last time we faced Crochet that lineup was successful,…
