Excerpts

Excerpt up at Rich Lederer's Baseball Analysts. It's the intro essay to Chapter 5, "Rise of the Fundamentalists, 1893-1919."

Excerpt up on Dick Williams at Ducksnorts. It went up January 21, 2010. It is NOT the full Dick Williams commentary from the book; it focuses on the Padres stuff for this except. Makes sense, as Ducksnorts is a Padres blog.

Excerpt up on Tom Kelly at Aaron Gleeman.com. It went up January 13, 2010.

Excerpt up on Casey Stengel at the Was Watching site. It went up December 17, 2009.

Dusty Baker excerpt went up December 1, 2009 at The Hardball Times.

Charles Comiskey excerpt went up on November 30, 2009 at The Hardball Times.

My writing on Pat Moran (great manager from around 1920). This comes from Chapter 5 in the book. This excerpt went up November 23, 2009 at The Hardball Times.

My thoughts on Billy Martin was the second excerpt up. This comes from Chapter 8 in the book, which focuses on managers from 1977-97. This went up at The Hardball Times on November 17, 2009.

A piece outlining the Tendencies Database, the analytical core of the book, was the first excerpt up. I had it go up first largely to set up future excerpts. This went up at The Hardball Times on November 16, 2009.
