Thanks! He's got some lung problems and he's been in intensive care for what's coming on 48 hours, but he's a good soldier. Eating, sleeping, pooping well. Just the breathing is a bit labored.

Here's to the end of another fantasy week.

Well, we're officially 30 days into the season. It looks like Silent Rob has won round one of the Hitting Rich versus Pitching Rich argument with ayebatter. I still think we'll have to wait and see what happens when ayebatter's offence picks up and Rob's pitching starts to fade (the Atronachs' pitching better fade or the real contest will be who comes in second).
There are some big bubbles that are likely going to burst - Konerko, Cano, Clippard, Alex Gonzalez, Wigginton, Jimenez (and the Canadian Animals' ERA?), KJ, Ethier.
Overall I'm pretty happy with my team. I don't know how long my punchless offence can hang in there (welcome back Manny!). My SS slot is an eyesore (I know the Cuban Missile starts slowly but I'm starting to think I blew $18 there - should I have gone for Jeter?). So far I've avoided the injury bug. As for pitching I could use some wins but it's a cardinal sin in Fantasy Baseball to chase wins right? Wandy and Nolasco could be doing better. I wish Hoffman would just retire and let Villanueva take over. I grabbed Meek in my 460 player deep Sabremetric wRC H2H pool but when I got back here that damn hyperactive Bwanna had snapped him up! My other bullpen of Villanueva, Gregerson, and Meek are pulling me through some tight scrapes but thanks to Bwanna it's not going to happen in this pool.
So how about you guys? Is any of us gonna catch the not so Silent Rob's Atronachs?

Are any of us gonna catch the not so Silent Rob's Atronachs? (Horrible early morning grammar. )

Well i'm just sitting patiently hoping in desperation that my guys heat up. You look at my team on paper and it doesn't look that bad, but my guys just terrible.
DEAD LAST in Runs, HRs, and WHIP.

I'm so p/o'ed about my White Sox this season that I'm pitching KC pitchers against them for two days. We'll see how that goes.


I'm up for trading if anyone's interested.

BBQ Head, no worries -- I've retaken the lead in moves. Rest easy.

Yah but your pace is snail like slow compared to last year, you'll need to pick it up a bit.


And on my roster the Upton brothers are fighting to see which Upton sucks the most.

Now that's what I like to see! Just wish I was a little closer to all the action!

Real bummer about that perfect game last night....
