@Corey: Longoria, it's close, but not that close. @UncleMel: I'd take Cruz and Beckham, but neither are the slam dunk the pitchers are. @R.J.: My bad, and congrats!

Hey, it’s “Rich” from the Fantasy Baseball Cafe, except I don’t go by Rich, and no one from the Cafe would know me as such. Please change it to “R.J.”, which is the name that appears on all my articles at the Cafe.

Thanks, and it was a great year!

Grey….thanks for a very entertaining and informative year.
Quick question???
I play in a standard 5×5 $260 AL keeper league.
I have CC and Verlander, both at $24 next year.
Want to move 1 or both.
Offered Beckham($6), Quentin, Span, Cruz or C. Davis (each $10) for either pitcher.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

In a keeper league, which keeper is better in the long haul, Longoria, or Tulowitzki? and how close?

Thanks!

@Grey: Hehe. We've got Monday Night Football here rather than the baseball, so didn't catch that. The next step for Lidge will be to get one out at the beginning of the 9th before handing the ball over.

@Steve: I enjoyed when the announcers said after the game now Lidge has his confidence back. Yeah, the manager opts for an injured Scott Eyre for 2/3 of the ninth then goes to Lidge for one batter. Confidence booster!

Grey,

I didn’t get a chance to write last week, but I wanted to give you a big shout out for helping me along this season. I don’t know how it happened but I finished first in all three of my leagues this season. It was good advice and lots of luck – like when you told me to pick up Nyjer Morgan even as I go after Jeter (never got him) and he then stole what 20 bases for me. I would buy you three rounds or make a donation, but I’ve been living off unemployment for the whole season (more time to read this blog!). I looked forward to reading this every morning and making.

As a former NYC metro area inhabitant like you, Go Yankees!

@big o: I think you're talking about Turturro. Not related to Monk. Related to other Turturros. Didn't see any MLB specials though.

@Grey:
my favorite radio show is weei sport-talk radio .
so i finally ventured onto their site , weei.com .
use to be all things sawx … now patriots football , too .
anyhoo , schilling has a blog there , 38 pitches , does radio interviews , and is running for congress ,
don’tcha know .

current mood on site is …. papelbum go to n.y … bay too …
lester ok , but better cool it (defending papelbon) … ellsbury only one worth a damn .

current mood on casino floor , here in connecticut … where life is split 50/50 , yanks/sawx … is NO one is wearing sawx colors today .
(yankee fans are giggling) .

@big o: Sawx just like to complain. How is Schilling even a topic of convo anymore?

@Grey:
if this was the umpiring crew that schilling and the rest of sawx nation has been complaining about (c.b. bucknor , west , etc) .
torrealba would have been tossed
2 or 3 innings ago .
