Latest on Wood is he left the game as a "precautionary measure." Wood said he could've pitched through the ailment if necessary. Cubs will know more after he undergoes some tests today. One thing's for sure, they can't afford to lose Wood with Prior still on the shelf. And yes that was the understat...

Which bid wins?
From STATS: "Sosa would be dropped in both scenarios. The first initial bid doesn't have
any affect on which conditional bid goes through. If there's a "tie" like in the scenario below, the first bid entered has to be processed first."

Friday Vent Starts Now.
Sooner, your comments about the pitchers raises an interesting question: How long do you stick with good starters or solid ones if they are struggling? I've always been of the mind that I'll give a guy an extra start or two too many rather than pull the plug too soon although if you have good option...

I don't have much to vent about with my fantasy teams at the moment because, fortunately, I'm doing well so far. But I do have a few OT vents if nobody minds: 1. Why in the living h**l are there 4 days between games in the NBA playoffs? Seriously, how stupid is this to drag the season out so long? W...

One thing to keep in mind about gambling and the NFL, the NFL is the only professional sports league that prints a detailed list of each team's injury report for its upcoming games. I'm sure that's just for fan interest only.

viper, we're going to find out very quickly about the potency of high-stakes events for fantasy football.

I tell ya one thing I got a kick out of the other day was Maddux and Marquis stealing bases off one another. Gotta love pitchers going for one-upmanship on the basepaths.

The catcher position has been very interesting so far this year. Estrada's become a run-producing machine; Hernandez is really struggling with the Pads; the Giants hate Pierzynski and Mauer got hurt early in the year. I have Mauer in the KP League alongwith Estrada and picked up Hammock for Mauer an...

I'd like for someone to put out a Missing Person's report on Brett Myers and find out who that imposter is who's been stinking up the joint so far. I had him as a $6 keeper in my main league and he's killing me. My team's off to a good start, but Myers has been brutal.

One thing to factor into the equation is that this year, in my opinion, will feature one of the deepest group of RBs I can ever remember in recent fantasy history. It's way early I realize (but hey we're already hard at work getting our first fantasy football magazine done so it can't be too early n...
