Borderline Fantasy Starters, Week 21-22

Date: Thu, Aug 26, 2010

Last week our borderline fantasy starters, I came away with an 3.95 ERA.  Not too shabby considering two of those earned runs came from Ross Ohlendorf, who I warned you to only start in extreme circumstances, and Travis Wood got absolutely rocked for 7 earned runs.  Without those two, the ERA was 2.90 in 62.1 [...]

LA Turns Back On Man-Ram Like It Did To Van Damme

Date: Thu, Aug 26, 2010

The first time Manny Ramirez went on waivers was before the 2004 season when the Sawx dared any team to accept his $20MM/year contract.  No one did and he helped the Sawx win the World Series.  Now it’s the Dodgers’ turn.  Say goodbye to Mannywood?  Could be.  If no one dares take him, the McCourts [...]

2010 September Call Ups, Hitters

Date: Tue, Aug 24, 2010

Is it call-ups?  Or callups?  Can I get a ruling on this– Wait, someone’s at the door.  August 31st, is that you? Uh… No.  August 30th? Nope.  August 32nd? No, you nitwit!  It’s September 1st!  Yes, it’s time we looked at September call ups (callups? call-ups?).  These are potential September call-ups that will, should, could [...]

Call The Dream Police Cuz Bautista’s 2010 Feels Like A Cheap Trick

Date: Tue, Aug 24, 2010

Jose Bautista hit his 39th and 40th home runs last night.  As frequent commenter, VinWins, pointed out yesterday, in the Blue Kays last 162 games, Bautista has 50 homers.  Okay, I was way off with this guy, but Jose Bautista didn’t see this year coming.  His own mother doesn’t recognize him.  Every morning he wakes [...]

Fantasy Baseball vs. Fantasy Basketball

Date: Mon, Aug 23, 2010

There’s a certain grind to the baseball schedule that someone with a slight case of OCD like myself can fully get behind.  Day in and day out over six months.  You make a small move to offset another move and it may not show up in the standings for three months.  By August, you wanna [...]

National Emergency

Date: Mon, Aug 23, 2010

‘Uh-oh’ doesn’t really do the sight of Stephen Strasburg throwing a pitch and shaking his elbow in pain.  Word is now he might go see Dr. Freeze.  Usually a visit to Dr. Freeze means the pitcher will be out for at least a year.  I think a visit to Dr. Freeze in this case would [...]

Fantasy Baseball Two Start Pitchers, Week 21

Date: Sun, Aug 22, 2010

Baseball is still going, I thought it was over since football has started. Soccer that is. Yeah, I know American Soccer is unwatchable, so I get my binoculars out and peer across the pond. I am sure I am alone in my passion as not many people play fantasy baseball and love the EPL. Oh [...]

AL Catchers Are Being Burnt By A Crisp

Date: Fri, Aug 20, 2010

For the Ministry of Silly Names, this is a great day.  Finally, Coco Crisp gets his just deserts, or is it breakfast?  Coco Crisp has had a problem with injuries in the past, constantly going snap, crackle, pop.  Now I’m with Coco, as long as he doesn’t move to TBS.   His game was Baroque, now [...]

This Cracker Wants A Paulie

Date: Fri, Aug 20, 2010

Paul Konerko went 5-for-5 yesterday with his 31st homer.  Paul Konerko is also winning your league for you.  You had your back up against the wall.  You took Hanley in the first round, Halladay in the 2nd and then you hit the 20th round and you were like, “Hmm… I totally screwed myself by not [...]

Borderline Fantasy Starters, Week 20-21

Date: Thu, Aug 19, 2010

This isn’t meant to replace Smokey’s two-start pitchers for fantasy that comes every weekend.  This is meant to supplement that, like something A-Rod’s cousin would give you.  This isn’t two start pitchers, this is barely owned guys that could give you one start.  A pick up and a drop.  They’re all owned in less than [...]

The General Lee Rides Again In Georgia

Date: Thu, Aug 19, 2010

The Braves should totally give Derrek Lee the number 01 and paint him orange.  Too bad Waylon Jennings isn’t around anymore to announce him when he comes up to bat.  Lee-haw!  The Cubs received back Tyrelle Harris, who I believe is a male model, Robinson Lopez, who dispenses candy from his neck, and Jeffrey Lorick, [...]
