Before I begin, I want to pay homage to Big Magoo, who is one of the more respected writers at Razzball and previous author of this weekly article. I imagine that he is walking the earth like Ryu, contemplating the dopeness of his existence.
With that said, I want to introduce myself…
I’m Son. My initials are SS, just like Slim Shady! Mind blown! I’ve mostly done stuff over on the football side, but have been pumping out more baseball content, primarily Bear or Bull.
If you’re not familiar with the One Man’s Trash article, it’s time to get existential y’all!!! This should get you in the mood.
We humans are a funny species. On one hand, we were able to build devices that can compute a gagillion calculations per minute. On the other, some would walk up to a lion in the Serengeti and try to pet it. In essence, we do not always operate with a logical modus operandi. But that is what makes life interesting. Ever play single-player franchise mode in MLB The Show? How about mock drafting with a bunch of bots? Boooorring. The human element presents a challenge, on one hand, and opportunities, on the other. Why? Because each individual looks upon the world in a unique way and emotion often overpowers logic. And therein lies the heart of One Man’s Trash.
Players get churned on the waiver wire all the time. An owner tilts and rage drops a player for the flavor of the week. A no-name player gets hot and puts up ridiculous stats. Should you pick up the player or not?
That’s what I’m going to try and help you out with each week. I will highlight a few of the players, with the most activity on the waiver wire, and decipher if they are trash or treasure.
See you guys in a few weeks!
