Originally I wasn't going to do them, but I got inspired about a week ago (yay Spring Break!) and an owner of a different fantasy website convinced me to post them on his site. When they go up (which should be later this week), I'll shoot you guys a link if you'd like to take a look.

We're kinda laid back here, comes with the territory, we can even point people to Paul's work:

Paul Sporer's Starting Pitching Analysis while we wait for Bod's.

Paul's guide was excellent this year. If anyone is looking for a guy who knows his stuff through and through, Sporer is the guy to go to for pitching. Also of note is that Sporer's PDF format this year was a nice touch. It's very easy on the eyes.

Hmmm - I figured Bod would be doing his again this year - always a good read. We will be adding SP's to our Consensus Ranking threads soon - so everyone will get a chance to weigh in. We will have something to compare. Look forward to the link Bod.

There's my pre-cursor post to the Tiers. It's basically a breakdown of all the defenses in baseball and how they might affect their respective pitching staffs.

Mike, I did the article for the proprietors of DraftBuddy as an author for their site. I can't post the article over here, but we'll link to it and I can answer questions here as well as on the Draft Buddy site.

I'm starting a new thread with all the links to each section of the Tiers. If the mods want to combine the posts and stick the one with the links at the top, have at it (or not -- whatever is totally fine). I'm just happy to have this thing ready this year after not believing I would have time to do it.
