How is it that the more money you make, the more money is guaranteed? You don’t see anyone tying someone up with a contract to wait tables at The Cheesecake Factory for $10/hour for six months. Even if they go four weeks without spilling a tray and have what is deemed a “career month!” Please, blog, may I have some more?

Karabell Sends Postcard in from Stupidville
May 27, 2008 | Uncategorized | 78 Commentsby: Hater Bell
Looks like someone found time to transcribe Karabell’s refrigerator magnets into a blog post. ESPN’s top fantasy analyst, Eric Karabell, went through his early season favorites to be fantasy baseball’s Most Valuable Players and Cy Young. Now obviously they don’t give awards for this shizz, but Karabell’s playing in his sandbox, so grab a teat and follow along. Please, blog, may I have some more?
Halladay is the vet who averages 10 innings a game. AJ Burnett is the high-paid free agent with filthy stuff. McGowan is the prospect that’s on the verge of greatness, but Marcum has the best ERA, WHIP and K rate. That’s right, Shaun Marcum! Please, blog, may I have some more?
(NOTE: This originally ran on May 18th.) Jay Bruce could be called up from the minors relatively soon. UPDATED: The Cincinnati Enquirer reports that Jay Bruce will be called up before Tuesday’s game. So I figured I should give you a breakdown, but then Baron Von Vulturewins, a regular commenter in the Razzpound and an all-around good guy (actually, he could be writing in from jail, I have no idea), did a great breakdown of Jay Bruce in the comments.

Rudy Gamble on The Fantasy Baseball Gurus Podcast

Do you like the words of Rudy Gamble but only wish they were narrated with verbal stammers and Tim Kurkjian-like voice cracking?
Pine no more! I was a guest of The Fantasy Baseball Gurus podcast on Sunday night. I come on around the 33 minute mark. Please, blog, may I have some more?
Matt Holliday hits the 15-day DL with a strained hamstring. I wouldn’t be surprised if he just sat for a few days and pushed through it if the Rockies were in a better position team-wise. Well, ain’t that a kick in the pants? Please, blog, may I have some more?
Locally Blogged Baseball Insights – Memorial Day Weekend Edition
May 25, 2008 | Uncategorized | 11 Commentsby: Rudy Gamble
We realize that exporting our views across the country has damaging consequences on the blogosphere.
To help remedy this, we will try to occasionally feature locally blogged advice/insights/humor/etc. that will be fresher, more sustainable, and require less energy consumption (for us anyway). Please, blog, may I have some more?
With Barmes headed to the 15-day DL, the Rockies decided it was time to recall Ian Stewart. Mentioned two weeks ago that it was only a matter of time before Ian Stewart got the recall from the Rockies. So what’s to be expected? Please, blog, may I have some more?
As Sean Connery says, “Shituation: Dire.” Rios has been the pea under your mattress. The splinter in your paw. The tighty-whitey stain that your fourth grade classmates saw when you were changing for gym and have teased you about for the rest of your life (but maybe that was just me). Please, blog, may I have some more?
Ok, every season there’s some flat-out surprises, but one I haven’t heard too much about this year is Johan Santana’s fairly subpar performance. This was a guy that everyone and their drunk, Irish mother-in-law told you to draft because Johan Santana was headed for a ’68 Bob Gibsonian season. Please, blog, may I have some more?
This week’s Fantasy Roundtable is being hosted over at RotoJunkie.
THE TOPIC: Buyer’s Remorse. What are three players you regret buying or drafting this March?
Not sure why I gave Kevin Kouzmanoff a free pass – guess I couldn’t come up with anything too interesting to say on him…. Please, blog, may I have some more?
Straight from Girardi, “The process has started, converting Joba to a starter, and tonight was the first [step] of extending him a little bit and we’ll continue to do it, getting him up to where he can throw enough pitches.” The Yanks stretching out Joba to get him ready to start by pitching 2 innings in a blowout? Please, blog, may I have some more?
