The 40-man roster began in the 1960’s when the Houston Colt 45’s entered as an expansion team.  It gave them an opportunity to call up a young, smooth outfielder named Billy Dee Williams, who could play the field with the best of them.  Unfortunately, he was on the bench most days, because his team was content […]

Fantasy Baseball Points League: City Slickers Post

August 31, 2012 | Points Leagues | 19 Comments

by: LT

I’m sure you remember the scene from the seemingly forgotten classic City Slickers when Curly, played masterfully by the legendary Jack Palance, tells Billy Crystal’s character, Mitch, about that “one thing” I could have sworn when watching the other day, that he was referring to fantasy baseball, because as we well know, fantasy baseball IS LIFE! Their […]

Yesterday, Jason Kipnis went 2-for-4 with his 13th homer.  Member when he had 11 homers going into the All-Star break and we were like, “Yo, I’d let Kipnis sleep with my baby’s mama.  He earned that shizz, yo.  Just make sure you change the sheets, that’s all I ask.  And maybe if you could pick up some […]

Bottom of the Ninth: Alfredo Sauced

August 30, 2012 | Closers | 3 Comments

by: Dan Pants

Bobby Valentine opted to go with Andrew Bailey over Alfredo Aceves for the save on Friday night. Initially, I thought it was because Alfie had thrown 37 pitches the night before, but Aceves disagreed. No, this time it was personal. So personal, in fact, that Alfredo let his feelings be known that night and got […]

by: Tom Jacks

Ryan Braun – Ryan Braun has been making it rain all season long. With 35 homers and nearly a 1.000 OPS to date, he’s definitely put the bomp in the Brewers offense. What’s more is that he’s been incredibly consistent on a monthly basis, as he’s posted no less than a .941 OPS all year. […]

Kenley’s Heart Being Questioned, Josh Beckett Knows How He Feels

by: Grey

It didn’t take long for Josh Beckett to cause people to question the heart of the Dodgers staff.  And they didn’t even have to send them a Valentine.  Look, we wouldn’t wish a heart issue on anyone but of all the Dodger closers over the years, why Kenley Jansen?  Why not Steve Howe?  He was a coke […]

Due to my flight back from New York having me traveling around 2 AM west coast time, I bowed out of yesterday’s podcast.  There was no way I was going on three hours sleep that I got in a middle seat.  I need my 18 hours of sleep while Asian women massage my bunions.  It’s […]

Deep Impact: Don’t Hate the Playa, Hate the Berry

First things first– does Matthew Berry always have to refer to himself as: ‘Matthew Berry – The Talented Mr. Roto’? What is the deal here? Did he marry a chick with the last name ‘The Talented Mr. Roto’ of which he and said wife agreed to combine their last names via the hyphen? Somehow I […]

Hasta Bautista

It’s a wrap for Jose Bautista in 2012.  See you around like a donut in 2013.  It’s far from breaking news that he’s done for the year.  It looked like it was headed that way for the last few days.  As an aptly-named, pessimistic Polish man would be named, Bummerooski.  He didn’t have the year […]

Pitcher Profile: Brett Anderson and the Tommy John Cure

August 28, 2012 | Pitcher Profiles | 5 Comments

by: JB Gilpin

With a young career riddled with injuries, it was tough for A’s fans to see Brett Anderson endure a Tommy John reconstruction surgery, adding further doubt to what kind of career Anderson could put together. There is virtually no question that, when healthy, Anderson can be a top-of-the-rotation starter.  With decent K rates and a […]

Shelby Miller Loved Everywhere Except In Springfield

by: Grey

There’s some strong indications that Shelby Miller could be called up by the Cards when the rosters expand on September 1st.  “Why should we care about some stunod with a 4.89 ERA in Triple-A?  Hey, Grey, we care about stunods now?”  That’s you talking to yourself just as a pretty girl walks by and thinks […]
