Charlie Saponara, a Jersey boy who grew up 15 minutes from Angel Stadium, first started writing about baseball back in 2008 when he opened Fantasy Baseball 365. Since graduating college with a degree in English, he has spent time coaching baseball as well as working in several minor league front offices. He also writes for The Outside Corner, Fire Brand of the AL and contributes to Project Prospect and ESPN's Sweet Spot. His work has appeared on FoxSports.com and CBSSports.com. You can follow all of his baseball musings on Twitter (@CharlieSaponara) where serious statistical analysis often takes a back seat to the humorous side of things.
