About Sean »

I graduated from Emerson, where I studied writing and broadcasting. I'm a freelance writer who primarily writes about economics and baseball, and sometimes the economics of baseball. My work has been featured in Baseball Digest and in various news outlets from Portland, OR to Portsmouth, NH.

I'm the author of a Red Sox blog called Kennedy's Commentary, and strive to give my readers unique and interesting perspectives on the latest Red Sox news and developments.

www.KennedysCommentary.blogspot.com has all the latest Red Sox news, information and stats, plus an analysis and commentary of all things Red Sox. The Boston Globe has linked Kennedy's Commentary to its online sports page and has quoted it repeatedly. A must read for any member of Red Sox Nation.

    I think you are right about '81. The reason Dawson got in is that he hit 49 home runs in 1987 and won the MVP (even...

    Javier Vazquez led all pitchers the last decade with 193 quality starts, one more than Barry Zito.

    Vazquez also totaled 2,001 strikeouts, second only to Randy Johnson in the 10-year period.

    What a steal for the Yanks.
