Kelder does have a first name but only his Mom uses it. He's been playing fantasy sports since before the internet had sites to do it. Not a member of any important organization but he thinks he's super funny! When not consuming baseball, he enjoys church coffee and food in larger quantities than his doctor would like.

I am reading a book this summer called The Cartel by Don Winslow. No, you wise acres, it’s not the only book I’ve read. I read a 1,0000 pager too! Brandon Sanderson comes highly recommended. Anyway, in this book, they mention grilling out in Mexico is called “carne asada.” I refuse to do any Googling […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?That calendar app has flipped to August. School supply shopping is all on the parent’s Facebook. A tropical storm might dump ten inches of rain on my house in the next three days. But none of these are the most significant events of the month for this site. Football training camp is in full swing, […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?The trade deadline has come and gone. Here’s the trades that affected the corners, and some quick hitters after. The deal: Cubs acquire Isaac Paredes, Rays acquire Christopher Morel Morel shouldn’t lose any of his power value in Florida but the counting numbers might dip. They clearly liked his XStats, and if you have been […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Recently my family took me to Colorado. That’s a high elevation, especially when my home in Eastern NC is at 4 feet above sea level. It’s also a high elevation when you factor that they love to hike and I, well, tend to take after Gimli in Lord of the Rings while they are built […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?So here I am, sitting at 6:29 AM and it’s already 83 degrees with humidity, well on the way to another day of heat advisories. Chicago did its part to promote Twisters by having at least ten tornadoes on the ground last night. There has already been a Cat 5 Hurricane. Does this feel like […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?My online buddy Bunt Singles had to deal with “real life” and “important things” which hopefully are just due to his moving, not a unanasthesized vasectomy or accidental amputation, so Kelder gets to fill in. It’s also the All Star break, time to assess where you are and what ground you can make up, and […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Well hello everyone, back after a two week hiatus. No, I wasn’t holding out for a higher salary. Nope, didn’t visit my Sherpa to tell me what to do for my struggling TGFBI squad (he would have said, remember you have it and make moves). I was in Colorado with the family and told them […]

Oooookay, Tyler Soderstrom. You’re the first A I’m writing up this year. .370 and 4 HR in 7 days is quite the hot streak. This could be something and I’d go get him now. Tyler, yes first name basis, came up as a catcher and was the number one prospect for the Oakland system, which […]

Did you know they still play baseball on bad teams, and their stats count just as much? Didn’t think so. I wouldn’t blame you for avoiding all things White Sox for this season, or Marlins, or any of the 6 or so teams that have already tanked. That’s why you come here! Here are some […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?The Razzball tools are real, and spectacular. I was poking around and there’s this neat little BABIP vs. Avg. calculator. If you pay, you can play with the tools just like I did. What we’re gonna do, is focus on this tool and talk about some guys to buy, and some guys to get rid […]

Nothing like a good Memorial Day week check in. Thanks to all who served, and let’s just get to the content. MVP: Alec Bohm. Based on where he was drafted and his top 5 player status, this guy has been a fantasy owner’s dream. I’m sure you all who have drafted him have regaled your […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?I didn’t know there was a save button. To backtrack, I’m on too many platforms. I joined the TGFBI on the NFBC site, my home leagues are on Yahoo, my dynasty is on Fantrax, and I joined a random one on ESPN. I’m not here to critique any site; the trouble is having too many […]
