Pitchers, the pitches they throw, and how they throw them -- these days it's the stuff of constant scrutiny, but there's never been anything like a comprehensive source for such information. That's what preeminent baseball analyst Bill James and ESPN.com baseball columnist Rob Neyer realized over lunch more than a dozen years ago. Since then, they've been compiling the centerpiece of this book, the Pitcher Census, which lists specific information for nearly two thousand pitchers, ranging throughout the history of professional baseball. The Guide also offers:
  • A dictionary describing virtually every known pitch
  • The origins and development of baseball's most important pitches
  • Top ten lists: best fastballs, best spitballs, and everything in between
  • Biographies of some of the great pitchers who have been overlooked
  • More knuckleballers and submariners than you ever thought existed
  • An open debate concerning pitcher abuse and durability
  • A formula for predicting the Cy Young Award winner
  • Something fresh and new: Bill James' Pitcher Codes

The Neyer/James Guide to Pitchers is about understanding pitchers, and baseball's action always starts with the pitchers. It's also about entertaining debates and having a great deal of fun with the history of a game that obsesses so many.

Great For Michigan Fans!
Color: Michigan Wolverines, Style: Goal Post Chew Toy
I got this toy for my puppies and it’s been a hit! Not only does it look great with the Michigan Wolverines design, but it’s also really durable. My dogs love chewing on it and it’s holding up really well despite their intense chewing. It’s the perfect way for any Michigan fan to spoil their furry friends while showing some team spirit. Definitely recommend it for dog owners who want something tough, fun, and stylish for their dogs!

Field Goal MISSED
Color: Kentucky Wildcats, Style: Goal Post Chew Toy
Got ripped off on this one. I missed or they lied about this product IS MADE IN CHINA. The school logo washed off in water when I first received before giving to dog. Gave to dog and she took one sniff and one bite and walked away. After a week of laying with dog chews, I threw it away.

Subpar manufacturing
Color: Penn State Nittany Lions, Style: Goal Post Chew Toy
We bought one of these dog toys in Happy Valley and our dogs LOVED it. I purchased two on Amazon and am disappointed with the shipment. One toy was 1st quality. The second one was in packing that was stapled back together and what we found was the toy was subpar. There were sharp pieces left from the molding process. I’m not sure how this wasn’t caught in the manufacturing process.

Plastic too HARD!
Color: Georgia Bulldogs, Style: Goal Post Chew Toy
