Baseball Analysis
What's Inside?
There's
a giant body of worthy baseball research that never gets published or has
become long out of print. This effort taps into it. Choose an author from
the left margin.

Article Submissions
The Guru
invites Sabermatricians, baseball historians and everybody else to submit
interesting analysis for the public to read. Please submit articles by
emailing the Guru. Articles may
be edited before publishing. Please follow these instructions carefully:
Include your return email address, your website URL (if you have one), what
type of baseball research you do, a brief bio and any contact info you'd
like to make available to readers. If you wish to arrange to have your article
available by subscription only, then indicate that preference in your email
and we will make financial arrangements.
Criteria
for Article Submissions - Readers should know that when
they click on a link to an article, even one written by a non-guru, that
something original and worthwhile will pop up on their screen. While we cannot
always achieve this, it is our mission. Examples of original items for the
analysis section are as follows:
News reports - such as Gary Garlands daily Japan baseball box
scores and daily game summaries translated into English,
Annotated photos taken from an event - such as Charlie Haeffners
HOF photos and Joe Mocks Ballpark shots,
Personal experiences - such as Mike McCanns monthly Minor League
report,
Interviews - such as John Holways series on the Ladies Leagues
and the Negro Leagues,
Historical diaries such as Bruce Markusens daily series
on the 1972 As and Max Blues detailed account of the NY Giants
1916 historic winning streak,
Articles based on facts from various sources used as evidence to prove
a point revealing new understanding of a topic - such as Jim Albrights
series on Sadaharu Oh and
Use of another authors formula on a different data set to prove
a point - such as Jeff Mordocks use of Bill James' Hall of Fame
Monitor in his assessment of active players,
Presentation of baseball history using an original formula - such
as John Korsgaards position research or Craig Tomarkin's series on
the greatest teams of all time.
