Outside The Confines: A little Wednesday link break

Happy Wednesday, everyone! Hope the first half of your week has gone smoothly, and that the downward slide into the weekend goes quickly. It’s hard to believe it, but we are almost at the one-month mark of the major league season, and while we can still use the “small sample size” excuse with player performance, it’s safe to say we’re starting to see some of how the rest of the season will go (no comment on the Cubs’ place in the standings, obviously we all hope that will change).

That said, I think we’re really starting to get a sense of who the strongest players of the season are, and which previous dark-horse teams might actually have what it takes to make a postseason push this year.
