MLBTR Originals: 8/14/11 – 8/20/11

By Dan Mennella | August 21, 2011 at 7:15pm CDT

A look back at the original pieces we published here at MLBTR last week …

  • Ben Nicholson-Smith interviewed three GM candidates: Ben Cherington, Al Avila, and Thad Levine.
  • On Thursday, Tim Dierkes was the first to report that the Pirates were discussing a multiyear deal with Jose Tabata, that it would have three club options, and that he parted ways with his previous agency.
  • Tim was first to report that the Braves signed righty Juan Jaime to a minor league deal that covers 2012.
  • The Nationals' decision to pass on Adam Dunn looks smart now, writes Ben.
  • The Boras Corporation will be busy as always this offseason. Here's a look ahead, courtesy of Tim.
  • What does it mean when a draft pick signs a Major League deal? Tim has you covered.
  • We been refreshing this ever-evolving list of players who have cleared waivers and can therefore be traded.
  • Here's a refresher on the various ways one can enjoy MLBTR.
  • The latest Elias Rankings Update is out!
  • Mike Napoli is having a great year on the heels of an offseason in which he was twice traded. Tim recounts those swaps.
  • Carlos Zambrano isn't the hottest trade commodity these days, but he could feasibly be moved for some other bad contracts, according to Tim.
  • Tim looked at some lefty relievers the Yankees and Phillies could reasonably acquire.
  • Being a Type A Free Agent ain't all it's cracked up to be, and Tim looks at which guys that distinction could hurt.
  • Who might be non-tendered this offseason? Tim has a look.
  • Here's the transcript to the weekly MLBTR Chat with Tim.
  • Ben has a closer look at trade candidate Hideki Matsui.
  • Howard Megdal writes about the similarities between Hunter Pence and Rondell White.
  • Baseball Blogs Weigh In makes its weekly appearance, courtsey of Mike Axisa. Among the hot topics: Jim Thome, The Draft, and the Angels.
