What a beautiful moment the A’s had at the end of the game yesterday thanking fans–Wait, why is the A’s owner, John Fisher, unrolling that comically long TNT fuse? Oh God, what is he doing? So, Oakland played its last game in Oakland yesterday, and hell is too cool a place for John Fisher. Teams […]

Here’s a story I think I’ve told before, but it’s sorta related to today’s post, and it’s a short schedule day in late-September: Cougs and I went on an architectural tour of Palm Springs — hey, when you don’t have kids, you have to find stuff to amuse each other. So, this tour would go […]

Wowza, what a deadline, huh? Sure, we didn’t have the superstar-level players like Juan Soto or Justin Verlander moving this year, but the volume was astounding. A total of 59 trades were made during time surrounding the deadline with 32 going down on the Tuesday deadline alone. Certainly, highly owned players like Jack Flaherty, Erick […]

We are back for another week of trying to piece a winning Wednesday lineup together. Today, we are trying our hand at another stack, this time with the Colorado Rockies. Before you look, no, they are not playing at home. However, they are playing the Angels and facing off against a guy named Davis Daniel. […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?We had another successful week of streamers last week, and it led to one of my best weeks of the year. I had numerous 8-2 wins in my season-long leagues, and those are the sort of scorelines that could change the standings. The volatility of streamers can lead to lines like that but it will […]

A few short weeks ago, we had to update our prior understanding of some league-wide factors affecting our dumb little fantasy game. This week, with every team crossing the half-season mark and the All-Star break bearing down on us, let’s get some housekeeping in order for the second half of the season. These two factors […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?We wanted to exploit the Rockies on both ends of the ball last week, and that played out wonderfully. Not only did they struggle with the bats, but the arms were horrific as well. That’s a common trend throughout the season because we want to use players against that team as much as possible. It’s […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?In this week’s Avoiding The Blurbstomp, C.A. introduced me to the band Boredoms for the first time. And holy cow, what a journey it has been discovering their catalog of chaotic music. Guitars, drumming, and screams everywhere all the time (but read his piece, he’s much more masterful with the written word to describe the […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Cincinnati Reds corner infielder slash former Tiger slash former Cub slash former National (guy gets around) Jeimer Candelario continued his best Kyle Schwarber June mash-fest impression on Friday night going two for five with a two-run home run to extend the Reds lead en route to a win. Jeimer now leads all major leaguers with […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?We had a rough showing in Week 8, but we bounced back big time last week. Almost every one of our streamers performed well, and that’s something that rarely happens. That has me excited to keep chugging along because the waiver wire is calling to me right now. With that in mind, let’s look at […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?How dumb is MLB? How about: You have a sport where teams play 162 games and you don’t have every team play on Memorial Day. MLB could own all holidays from April until October. It’s so easy. If you don’t want all day games, fine. Have them play night games. Have them mid-day. Just have […]
