The great Bob Feller dies.......
I remember meeting him at a baseball card show 28 years ago. I was 7 years old. I had no idea who he was. Signatures were $5.00 for signed photos and only $3 for a signature on a ball (if you brought your own). I also remember distinctly there was a very nice conditioned Mickey Mantle rookie selling...

What happened to all the Joe Blanton backers (3).....
His K/BB ratio so far this year is similar to his career K/BB ratio. I see a huge turnaround

I have Google Chrome downloaded. But when I do a search for a player it only allows me to type one or two letters before the letters erase. Very annoying.

Why can't we see a list of the cats with up and down points for the day? It's pretty frustrating seeing a point total and have no clue which categories we went up and down in.
