By: Dr. Gary S. Goodman | 2010-03-26 | Baseball Having the biggest, glitziest payroll in baseball is no assurance of participation in the post-season, as the New York Yankees discovered, in 2008. Winning the most games of any team in the league during the regular season is also no guarantee that your team will get out of the first round of the playoffs, as the '08 Chicago Cubs and Los Angeles Angels can attest. So, if money does not conquer all, and winning the most games doesn't catapult you to the top, permanently, or at least through November, what does? read more

By: Dr. Gary S. Goodman | 2010-03-26 | Baseball In a surprise move, the Los Angeles Dodgers improved their team by acquiring veteran pitcher Jon Garland and the number 12 all-time home run hitting, Jim Thome. Garland is expected to pitch every five games, which would put him on track to take the mound six times between now and the post-season. Thome, who hasn't played a fielding position for two years, is expected to pinch-hit off the bench. Exactly how much have the Dodgers improved through these pick-ups?
