DRays Bay has an absolutely fantastic analysis of Carlos Pena up on their site.
I highly recommend a read.

Are you sure this was a non-GOI article because it was so fantastically written that it really seems like a GOI article. My favorite line is the one at the end:
There are the intangibles: leadership, smile%, pre-game dances, and between pitch mound meetings, but in terms of things we can measure, exploring a deal involving Pena seems prudent for a team that is constantly working around the big payroll elephant in the room.
Is this blog a fairly major one for Rays fans b/c it seems pretty official
1) The article was very GOI-like, so i linked to it
2) RJ Anderson of Fangraphs writes for it
3) It's semi-official, i think...
