To say Paul Goldschmidt is locked in right now is an understatement. Dude has delivered 9 HRs, 27 RBIs and 23 Rs in August. That’s only 23 games folks. For the season, that’s a slash of .338/.419/.633 with 33 HRs and an RBI total already north of triple digits. Unless the gold-digging descendants of Lewis […]
Please, blog, may I have some more? If you were like me growing up, your Grandma always made your favorite dishes. We’d show up on her doorstep and she was always willing to whip something up for her boys. With a cold glass of soda, we’d sit down at the table and watch her go to work. The ingredients would magically appear […]
Please, blog, may I have some more? We’re in the dog days of summer and a look at the MLB calendar finds only 7 more Sundays of regular season baseball to look forward to after today. The wheelin n dealin is now done so it’s time for the MLB teams contending for playoff spots to step on the accelerator. Some will make […]
Please, blog, may I have some more? We are just about one week into the post-trade deadline season and what have we learned? We learned the Padres are trying to become the Yankees and Dodgers by trading for the biggest name on the market. The old Vegas gambling mantra is ‘scared money don’t make money’ and I believe A.J. Preller prescribes to […]
Please, blog, may I have some more? On Tuesday, we were treated to the annual mid-summer classic. The MLB All-Star game brought together the game’s best players, except for a couple noteworthy snubs named Logan. The reigning AL MVP got the show started quickly with a single off Clayton Kershaw, only to get picked off from first moments later. On the NL […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Yesterday, my buddy Mitch Staniger penned a nice tribute to All-Star game snubs in his DFS article. With so many more deserving names for the honors, I’ve taken the baton and put together a list of my own. I still can’t believe Logan Gilbert is not an All-Star. I’m on record twice making the prediction […]
Please, blog, may I have some more? The All-Star game is right around the corner. In fact, Phase II of the MLB All-Star voting concluded on Friday, so we now have the starters. As always, we’ll see the respective lineups loaded with the superstars as well as some newcomers who earned their ticket in the eyes of the fans. Unfortunately, as is […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Today is June 26th. On this day in 1961, Yogi Berra collected his 2000th career hit. The Hall of Famer and 18-time All-Star is widely regarded as one of the greatest catchers in baseball history. Some of his very long list of baseball accomplishments include 14 World Series appearances, catching Don Larsen’s perfect game in […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?That’s right, Happy Ef(lin) Father’s Day to all my fellow dads out there. Unlike my Mother’s Day article, I won’t be serenading you with clever songs to honor all our pops and grandpas. We, men, like to cut to the chase and get right to the action, don’t we? We also like to make choices […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?I had you there, didn’t I. How many of you were instantly taken back to the 80s just now? Maybe you saw the original movie recently before going to the sequel, so this phrase was fresh in your mind. Perhaps you were born in the right decade and remember seeing the original when it first […]
Please, blog, may I have some more? So, you’re probably wondering why the Sunday DFS writer is here on Saturday. Did you have a moment of panic after tying one on last night and think you lost a whole day? Did Razzball fire Mitch Staniger? Fear not my friends. While the former may very well be true, the latter is not. My […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?When you think of comfort food, mac-n-cheese is always at or near the top of the list. Who can resist the temptation of that four-cheese goodness your mom used to make on holidays or special occasions? Maybe it’s the Kraft mac-n-cheese variety that comes to mind first…the one in the blue box that was a […]
