The leaderboard doesn't attempt to prove anything, it's just something that I like doing and it points out some notable performances that might not get as much attention. For example, James McDonald quietly becoming one of our better pitching prospects. Leading the organization in both strikeouts and walks is sure to turn some heads.

Even though Mitch Jones left the team a few weeks ago, he still leads the Dodgers in almost every power category.

------------------------------------------------------

I got an E-Mail from Will Carroll explaining why his labrum article from 2004 is now obsolete.

The reason the article is "essentially obsolete" is that techniques in both surgery and rehab have changed so significantly. Whether it's newly constructed bone anchors, changes in surgical methodology, or having far too many pitchers to practice on, it's not a death sentence for pitchers any more. It's not good by any stretch, but it's not as bad as it was just a few years back.

I now feel much better about Schmidt's chances than I did a couple days ago. While there's still a chance that Schmidt might never be an effective pitcher for the Dodgers, there's also hope he can come back and be a useful member of the Dodger rotation. Thanks to Will for the clarification.
