Welcome to the year end Razzball Awards! Or as they call them in New Jersey, the “What’s this crap?” Unlike the ESPYs, you won’t have to wear a tux or listen to Derek Jeter try to be funny. Speaking of Viagra — Vlad’s got one good leg and he’s not wearing a shoe on it. Please, blog, may I have some more?

Boys Of Summer Are Gone – I Hope You’re Happy, Don Henley
September 29, 2011 | Fantasy Baseball Daily Notes | 79 Commentsby: Grey
On the first day of the season, I said something profound and uplifting. Don’t go back to look. I’m sure I did. Today, I’m like Mark Twain talking about summer in San Francisco but less pithy. The coldest winter I ever spent was the last day of the baseball season. Please, blog, may I have some more?

And Jered Matters As The Weaver
September 28, 2011 | Fantasy Baseball Daily Notes | 157 Commentsby: Grey
Jered Weaver will not make his final start of the year because he doesn’t care about your H2H team. Weaver ends the season with a line of 18-8/2.41/1.01/198. If you throw out three bad starts, his ERA would’ve been 1.72 in 220 innings, but if if’s and but’s were candy and nuts no one would ever leave the bathroom. Please, blog, may I have some more?
Lock, Stock and Taking Stock, Part 1
September 27, 2011 | fantasy baseball strategy | 42 Commentsby: Albert Lang
In the first installment of the grading process, we’ll look at the gold stars, the players that exceeded expectations. As always, in the comments, feel free to beat your chest about who you were high on relative to the rest of fantasy baseball players! Please, blog, may I have some more?
Mark Trumbo is done for the year with a stress fracture in his foot. What an inauspicious end to his rookie season, if I’m using the word inauspicious correctly, or even spelling it right. Year line was 65/29/87/.254/9. Trumbo’s OBP was tizzerrible at .291, but his minor league rates suggest he can grow into someone that can take a walk here and there.

Frenchy, Alex Très Back, Leave Questions For Next Season
September 26, 2011 | Fantasy Baseball Daily Notes | 70 Commentsby: Grey
Alex Gordon and Jeff Francoeur were shut down for the year because the peasant Royals want to give Lorenzo Cain and Jarrod Dyson a full three days to show their worth. Gordon’s line this year was 101/23/87/.303/17. Terrific! Wonderful! Tonderific! But if you peak under the hood, things aren’t as they seem. Please, blog, may I have some more?
Ben Revere Shouts “The SAGNOF is Coming”
September 23, 2011 | Fantasy Baseball Buy/Sell | 91 Commentsby: Grey
Twins aren’t winning. Twins haven’t won all year, actually. You can look it up. They’re 0-for-2011. But Ben Revere wants to steal bases for no reason. I love that. I’d prefer my fantasy players act selfishly and just try to inflate their own value. Please, blog, may I have some more?
Catch Me If You Can Starring Leo DiMinicarepublicaprio
September 23, 2011 | Fantasy Baseball Daily Notes | 34 Commentsby: Grey
Turns out Leo Nunez isn’t exactly who he said he was. He’s been playing under an assumed name. His real name is Juan Carlos Oviedo, he’s a Latin 29 and he’s pen pals with Keyser Söze. He enjoys snorkeling through Atlantis, talking to his giant rabbit Harvey and hunting Sasquatch. Please, blog, may I have some more?

This is it, fellas and three girl readers. The last train is leaving the station. The giddy has just about got up and went. It’s your last chance and I’d throw every single pitcher, not just the ones I have listed here if it meant the difference in my league. Please, blog, may I have some more?
Pence-A-Sore-Knee Phillie Shoulda Bought Insurance From Ned Ryerson
September 22, 2011 | Fantasy Baseball Daily Notes | 28 Commentsby: Grey / Rudy
Hunter Pence has a patella tendon strain and won’t play until this weekend. Though, more likely, he’s not playing much more in the regular season. Don’t you love H2H leagues? What I don’t understand is how you can fantasy baseball, which is a shizzload more intensive than fantasy football, then leave the end of the season up to luck like it’s fantasy football. Please, blog, may I have some more?
