The Rise Of The Middle Class

Date: Wed, Aug 18, 2010

Chase Utley went 0-for-5 as he returned from the DL.  My favorite advice by fantasy ‘perts is when they tell you to get a returning superstar into your lineup.  Do people often leave their 1st round picks on the DL when they’re playing?  Is this something I need to tell people?  While you’re at it, [...]

Young Fantasy Starters, the Shutdown

Date: Tue, Aug 17, 2010

The Verducci Effect as explained by Amerigo Verducci, “Pitchers generally feel the effects of abusive increases in workload the next year, not the season in which they were pushed.  That’s a no amore!”  I believe Amerigo’s cousin in the States, Tom, leaves off the last line when he’s describing it.  So to avoid this, clubs [...]

Let’s Get Ready To Grumble

Date: Tue, Aug 17, 2010

Francisco Rodriguez will miss the rest of the season; he needs surgery to repair a torn ligament in his thumb that he injured in his sparring match.  Cut me, Mackey Sasser, cut me!  On a not that serious but kinda serious note, besides Nolan Ryan, are all pitchers the wimpiest athletes?  Coach, I have a [...]

I Can’t Help Falling In Love With Elvis

Date: Mon, Aug 16, 2010

Member those days when you and your buddies sat around your one buddy’s DJ equipment?  You know, the buddy who claimed to be a DJ but really wasn’t any good at all and only played at other friends’ parties.  Member how you used to sniff glue?  Good times, indeed.  Wait, what was I saying?  Stupid [...]

Slow Twin Wiz

Date: Mon, Aug 16, 2010

Yesterday, the Oakland A’s hit Kevin Slowey about as well as Elmer Fudd can pronounce his name.  After missing last week’s start with a sore elbow, it was a great sign that he took a no-hitter into the 8th inning, only to be lifted for precautionary reasons.  After the game, Precautionary Reasons said, “Don’t blame [...]

Fantasy Baseball Two Start Pitchers, Week 20

Date: Sun, Aug 15, 2010

There are two weird trends going on this year. The amount of 1-0 games and the desperate creepiness of Carl “Purple Pie Man” Pavano’s mustache. Both completely weird me out in different ways. Fantasy wise 1-0 games suck, unless you are like me and like to dry hump starting pitching. The Pavano situation is awful. [...]

The Kemperor Strikes Back

Date: Fri, Aug 13, 2010

Matt Kemp doesn’t seem like he cares.  Well, about anything outside of protecting Rihanna’s honor and piercings.  I don’t blame him.  The GM questions his defense.  The manager plays Jay Gibbons over him.  Andre Ethier gets all the cool pink shirts.  Manny was recently overheard saying, “What does a man have to do to get [...]

Chipper Gives Fans One Last Injury To Remember Him By

Date: Fri, Aug 13, 2010

Ted Williams hit a HR in his last AB.  John Elway won his 2nd straight Super Bowl in his last start.  Chipper Jones eschewed a standing ovation in favor of a reclining operation.  Sometimes you don’t appreciate greatness until it hits the DL.  In between all the injuries, Chipper Jones has had one of the [...]

Run, Joe Blow, Run

Date: Tue, Aug 10, 2010

It’s long overdue we turned our attention to the underrepresented side of SAGNOF — the cheap steal.  Long ago I realized I like my steals like I like my women, cheap. Sure, there’s girls out there that know which spork to eat their Hamburger Helper with, but real value is found in girls that can [...]

Oldface Edmonds Takes Old Jack Swing To Cincy

Date: Tue, Aug 10, 2010

When Jim Edmonds was a trending topic on Twitter, I figured he died. Turns out he was just taking the Casino Bus to Cincy, though that might be a riverboat.  Edmonds will continue to be a part-timer, gaining no value.  Maybe one day he’ll garner 25% of a HOF vote and the interwebs will go [...]

Young Owners No Longer Restless

Date: Mon, Aug 9, 2010

This week we’re starting a new weekly column that will be here every Monday afternoon, it will be all about fantasy baseball keepers. The column will then move to Friday in the offseason.  Since many fantasy baseball keeper leagues don’t decide on their keepers until the start of the new season, I figured I’d go [...]

Yesterday’s Success Is News To Morrow

Date: Mon, Aug 9, 2010

Brandon Morrow lost the no-hitter but pitched as well as any pitcher this year.  9 IP, 0 ER, 1 Hit, 2 Walks and 17 Ks.  Though not everyone was impressed.  When reached for comment after the game, Adam Lind said, “If you gave me 27 outs, I could strike out 17 times.”  Did Morrow go [...]

Fantasy Baseball Two Start Pitchers, Week 19

Date: Sun, Aug 8, 2010

A cavalcade of stars trampling through your computer like a Colt 45 commercial. Not really, but if they all did… awesome. I would be the first person — make that the second — to die from high fiving. The first, if you must know — was that kid who slept with the hot teacher in [...]
