I've used Euston's work in my own articles on the Row...

I’d definitely be interested in reading more from him.

Brian Cartwright burns BP in his intro?

Nice

Aaron King is still my homeboy... iffy mechanics and all

If Dustin Pedroia played in Seattle, not many people would be talking about him.

I've know Tim Kniker before ever going to BtB

I hope he can hold up against the others. I think some of the unknowns are at a little of a disadvantage.

After reading all the entries...

Euston, Funck, Knight, and Kniker are my favorites. Cartwright and Ghirioli are the cannon fodder (I’m not even sure why Ghirioli made the finals)

I'm probably another sore loser, so take this with a grain of salt.

But I would have taken your article over the majority of the ones that made it this far. Keep up the good work.

Just to be clear

I’m not saying I should have made it, but I tend to think that there were better pieces submitted than some of these. Colin Wyers, for instance, didn’t make the cut, despite being absolutely one of the best writers/researchers out there.
