The title was part of a special Simpsons that Kim Jong Il commissioned where Ralph Wiggum’s mouth is jammed shut full of Korean bean paste. Stupid American! Last year in 317 ABs, Shin-Soo Choo had 14 HRs and 4 steals while batting .309. Though, as I used to say to one ex-girlfriend, “Beware the small […]

Fantasy Baseball, the 1950s
April 9, 2009 | Fantasy Baseball HOF, May's Daily Notes | 22 Commentsby: Lou Poulas
The Fantasy Baseball Hall of Fame has spent an unhealthy amount of time identifying the best fantasy seasons, careers, All Stars, and Hall of Famers of the fantasy era. The Fantasy Era began in 1980, and thus many great players of the 1980’s fall just short of enshrinement since their careers commenced in 1979 or […]

I’ve Got a Sinking Feeling…
April 8, 2009 | Fantasy Baseball Daily Notes | 126 Commentsby: Rudy Gamble
What are two things that Edinson Volquez, Chien-Mien Wang, Fausto Carmona, and Mike Pelfrey have in common? One is they all throw 90+ MPH sinkers. The second is that none got an out in the 6th inning nor gave up less than 4 runs or 9 baserunners. Blech. It’s way too early to change pre-season […]

April 8, 2009 | Uncategorized | 26 Commentsby: Rudy Gamble
Tom Verducci of SI has posted his annual ‘Year After Effect’ post which poses that young pitchers who threw more than 30 innings last year than they had the year before as injury risks. I had reference this theory as part of my risky pitchers tests. For those who haven’t read this and are too […]

Last night, he pitched a gem. 7 2/3 IP, 1 ER with 89 pitches. I love prospects that seem destined for greatness then fail. (see Alex […]

12 Team Mixed League Recap
April 7, 2009 | 2009 Fantasy Baseball Draft | 127 Commentsby: Grey / Rudy
This was a fantasy baseball league put together by the FSWA, Fantasy Sports Writers Association. (Grey is in the FSWA and Rudy is unlicensed. Hopefully they don’t kick out Grey for hiring non-union labor.) We drafted this league together, which made for some disagreements in our two styles of drafting. That was quickly mended when […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Emilio Bonifacio is like that kid in the 80’s movies that seemed like he didn’t belong but, by the end, is holding his own. At least for one day. Yes, Bonifacio has 2B eligibility, but the Marlins are playing him at 3rd. Who knows how long this lasts? Perhaps as long as Anthony Michael Hall’s […]

Please, blog, may I have some more?Frenchy’s back, Jordan Schafer’s going to hit 161 home runs (accounting for one rainout, of course) and McCann’s going to win the MVP. Oh, and Lowe’s winning the Cy Young. Unanimous. Spring has sprung and baseball’s back. It’s a good time to be alive. Aren’t you glad you didn’t eat any peanuts in the last […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Adam Ronis of Strong Island’s Newsday.com hosts the Fantasy Roundtable this week. He asked… Do you have players that you will absolutely not draft even if they fall far in snake drafts or go cheaply in an auction and if so why? Include examples. Can’t say I was super enlightening on this one but feel […]
