Obviously so many out there but the above links are the ones I tend to gravitate to. Hoping maybe some of you can introduce a new one to me. I for one love the overthemonster site and only discovered it yesterday, it links each team with a great host of articles so I can see what is going on outside of Boston.

If you like some crazy humor with your Red Sox, you have to check out Surviving Grady.
Surviving Grady also has all the links to other Sox sites you'll ever need, and then some.

Fangraphs.com-Though it it obvious way more than the RS, you can still access all the RS records, and if you click on the player, it will have links to any articles they wrote that are related to the player.

BDC of course
Here are a few of the other main ones I like. I think you can come up with pretty much anything using these sites.
Baseball Reference -
http://www.baseball-reference.com/ - has a TON of data. Just browse around. It's crazy.
Baseball Prospectus -
http://www.baseballprospectus....stics/sortable/ - great especially for SABR stats
Fangraphs -
http://www.fangraphs.com/ - awesome, awesome site
Hardball Times -
http://www.hardballtimes.com/main/stats/ - good stats glossary and articles.
Cot's (for info on contracts, etc.) -

Cot's Contracts is very good for payroll info. However, one thing you have to keep in mind is that it shows actual payroll outlays for the year, not the 'Average Annual Value' amounts that are used for luxury tax calculations.

Question for everyone:
Do any of you pay to read a few sites such as ESPN insider?
I find it stupid that they would charge us.

Read Hillbilly's post and my IQ went down 25 points, almost low enough to forget what I was going to write (btw, it wasn't the former CIA director who had texted shirtless pictures, but that is the least significant error in the post).
Who was the regular poster here who left to start his own Red Sox site a couple of years back, does anyone remember? For the life of me I cannot. And does anyone visit his site?

Harball with softlaw. It was a great albeit short lived site.

No, it wasn't softlaw, or any of the iterations with "law" in it...at least, that is not the one I remember.

Yes. Thanks, pinstripe. I did have the picture of Billy Beane in my head, but could not, for the life of me, remember his screen name.
Does anyone visit his web site? Does he still have one?
