Re: Zack Wheeler And Alex Cobb
According to SNY website Darling will be back...I haven't seen or heard of Darling leaving Mets TV team. Here is my Ron Darling story: I was at Giants tailgate and saw Darling walking through parking lot. Stopped him to talk and he told me a story about the late and greatest Bob Murphy. The team was...

Re: Greg & Shawn Competing In LABR AL & NL Auctions
Every year I look at the results of draft and I wonder what Lawr Michaels has been smoking. $40 for Kershaw when Scherzer, next highest sp, went for 32 is flat out just bad strategy. Then he sat on $211 for about 90 minutes and really didn't get a quality bat in his entire lineup. Im no "expert" but...

Re: Greg & Shawn Competing In LABR AL & NL Auctions
Interesting strategy ...punting avg for speed and then finding good power guys at decent prices. Jose Fernandez could be the key to their winning. Love to hear the why on Melvin Upton

Re: Greg & Shawn Competing In LABR AL & NL Auctions
Fielder for 30?! Thats no discount for injury, body type, age and a middling season. For 3 extra bucks...EE or for 4 less...Pujols. Kipnis for 27...what has he done lately? stars and scrubs or scrubs and scrubs?

Re: Stay Away From Bubba, Good Heavens, Stay Away From Bubba
Dan, Great post. Really one of my favorites. I was trying to explain to someone about how the one year that I entered the Main, I was so shocked and unprepared for the way in which players came off of the board. I think that this post comes closest to it. I know I could go to your team and look at y...

Re: Roto Snips
BK, Michael Bourn not signing caused you to give up your seasons? Michael Bourn? Here were his numbers post ASB last year: .225 2hr 25 rbi 36 runs 17 sbs 5cs 81 strike outs .325 obp. You wanted to pay $12 mill per for 5 years and possibly pick number 11 in the draft for that? Keep the faith in the b...

Re: Roto Snips
BK, I believe that a package that Atlanta put together for the Dbacks would not have hurt the Mets farm at all. Delgado is destined to be a #4 starter IMO and that of many prospect evaluators. How much better is Prado then Murphy? The rest of the guys were non-elite prospects. That is why I think Up...

Re: Roto Snips
Sorry Dan...one more Mets argument since my assertion was "attacked": The Mets' plan seems to be building around a young, price effective starting rotation of Harvey , Wheeler and Niese and middle of lineup of Ike, Wright, D'Arnealt and attaining competitiveness in roughly 2015, perhaps 2014 if ever...

Finding Your Gauge Player
I am in the 10th round of a Draft Champ League Draft. I, like many drafters, like to plan where I will draft my first sp, first closer etc. before the draft begins. I do that by figuring out what tier of sp I want and where they are likely to go in the draft. Based upon draft position, I then try to...

Re: Who Makes It Into The MLB Hall of Fame?
I am a lifelong Mets fan. Piazza was never my favorite player, but damn he carried that team on his back. He actually made being a Mets fan fun for a couple of years because you never felt like they were out of the game if he had an AB left. I was listening to Mike Francessa on WFAN, the premier, dr...

Its funny that you listed your height and weight Dan. Now if you can come up with about 18 more statistics about yourself, you can make it into the Forecaster. But one thing I wondered at the live NFBC drafts is the whole food and drinks thing. It is not like the food you are paying 50-100 for is ev...

Re: What Has Become...My Annual Rant
That signing raised my eyebrows today as well...where was the competition for Guthrie that they needed to throw that much money for those number of years? That is a signing that they will live to regret.
