FANTASY HARDER!
Have you ever thought to yourself "my fantasies are soft & floppy"? Did you ever get the feeling that other people's fantasies outrank yours? Is your fantasy life dull & unmemorable? Well if the answer is "yes" then I have the answer for you!
Just click this link and all your worries will be behind you. Or in front of you. On top or underneath, whichever position you prefer. Frankly I don't want to know. Some of you people are weird.
Oh, and another public service announcement to all members of the MCC League 2: Fantasy Harder fantasy baseball league. The draft is this Saturday at 11 am CDT. Get up early (or late) and be there. Or pre-rank your players. Just do... something.

Q: Did you ever make an offer for Vladimir Guerrero?
Sabean: In a word: No. If we had signed Guerrero or [Gary] Sheffield, we would have been without [Long list of replacement level vets]—obviously not being able to field a competitive team, especially from an experience standpoint, given our level of spending.
I think 5.
JCB’s, ResDog’s, Grant’s, mine and I think there is one other.

I reached on Victor Martinez in the 3rd. I knew the Torii Hunter pick was bad as soon as I hit ‘draft’. And I waited too long at 3B, and probably 2B. I like my pitching though.
I didn’t like picking 3rd with 14 teams.
The Giants Way™"If anybody deserves credit for this year’s turnaround it’s these two people, Brian and Bruce," Neukom said. "The encouraging thing is we think we’re back to playing baseball the way it ought to be played."
I figured with 14 teams pitching might be bare. Same with catchers which is why I grabbed V.Martinez so early.
