new, from the makers of plunk biggio

If you've been noticing that your blog reader has been woefully lacking information about people getting hit by pitches this year, you might want to check out www.plunkeveryone.com. Apparently, to my amazement and in defiance of all the available statistical data last year, people are STILL being hit by pitches even though Craig Biggio retired and it's now been more than a year since his last HBP. Shocking, eh?

While the new site no longer focuses one one player's attempt to reach historic levels of getting hit by pitches, it does feature an all-new nearly-interactive bruise board which will keep track, as daily as I can manage, of a wide variety of HBP statistics, season leaders and records. (We even have radar gun readings for most 2008 plunks). As always though, we do not support or endorse intentionally plunking everyone.
