May we never forget!
Today is a day of reflection and remembrance above all else. Please be sure to take time today to honor and mourn our fallen heroes. Don’t let them be forgotten.
Nothing I put on virtual paper today will come close to doing justice to remember those who make the ultimate sacrifice for our country. Please, blog, may I have some more?
Yesterday, Tarik Skubal (9 IP, 0 ER, 2 hits, zero walks, 13 Ks, ERA at 2.49) had one of the best starts ever fo’ reals fo’ reals fo’ reals fo’ reals…fo’ reals! FO’ REALS! As I continue to say fo’ reals in different intonations, the Fo’ Reals Police break down my door and drag me away, I’m told that I’ve become ungovernable with my fo’ reals, and the City Council meets to vote on whether they can ship me out of town because I fo’ reals’d too much, but, due to a by-law in the state constitution that says, ‘No one can be shipped out of town fo’ fo’ reals’ing too much,’ I’m allowed to stay.

There’s underwhelming weeks for two start options, and then there’s this week. Yuck. Not only are the Chocolate Chip and Sugar Cookies in short supply, but even the Oatmeal Raisins are lacking in quantity. (They’re also lacking in quality.) If you’re someone who comes here looking for options to chase after on the waiver wire for the upcoming week, my advice is to go ahead and take a gander at what’s on offer, but come back next week.

I can’t complain about the results in Week 8. Most of our starters performed well, and the hitting streamers were also solid. We’re actually going to ride one of the same hitting steamers from last week, and it’s hard to believe some of these guys are still sitting on the waiver wires with how hot they are.

Hello once again, Razzballers! And happy holiday weekend to all out there celebrating. Enjoy those BBQs, beverages, and agonizing roster decisions this long weekend.
I know it’s an arbitrary cutoff, but Memorial Day weekend (end of May) does feel like a momentous turning point in the fantasy baseball calendar. Please, blog, may I have some more?
It was an Imperial March last night at Busch Stadium as the Mighty Men of Measurement took the mound.
Ok. Maybe that’s laying it on too thick. But more than a few of us were keen to see if Zac Gallen (5.2 IP, 4 ER, 3 H, 3 BB, 4 Ks. Please, blog, may I have some more?
Ronald Acuna Jr? BACK. Hunter Greene? BACK. Spencer Strider? BACK. George Kirby? BACK.
This is the best week of news we have had all season. While Strider and Kirby were not stellar in their first starts back, it must feel better slotting them in your lineup than Ryan Gusto or Tyler Anderson. Please, blog, may I have some more?
Bubba Chandler is ready. When the Pirates will call him up is your guess = my guess. Jac Cannoli is ready and the Royals could use hitting, but where is he going to play? I don’t know. Roman Anthony is ready, but he’s more “Where is he going to play” than Cannoli. Please, blog, may I have some more?
