Re: And Now, Paxton
Danny boy... I think we have all seen starting pitching get pushed up draft boards in the early rounds. That has been precedent for a while. I predict another trend will develop and that is people drafting that 8th or 9th starter in rounds 20-23 when in the past you were filling out your offense. Es...

I am fairly certain there is someone who went MadBum and then Marte in a draft. Can you imagine his week?

Re: Notes n Stuff
Happy bday to my buddy Dave Clum. Might be one of the nicest guys in this game. A Clum team will always have FAAB money in the second half, deep pockets at the first and second break of the auction, a big offense, terrible pitching on paper, and a surprisingly good pitching staff at the end of the y...

Re: False Promise
I don't understand modern campaigning. I guess because it's not modern. In the past, politicians had to take to the road to spread 'their message'. Understood. With only newsprint, radio, and local tv, this was important. Now, folks tweet when they sneeze. We know of a bombing in a third world coun...

Re: Where's The VALUE In These Guys?
Value is getting guys later than your competition got them in other leagues in an overall competition. There is no other type of worthwhile "value." Value does not exist in contained leagues from my perspective. You either have the player or you don't. There is no comparison, as nobody else has tha...
