I have a longer outlook than one week. That's why DL'd players get discounted. I'll take a Longoria or Kemp for the rest of the season instead of many guys at the bottom of the list.

Correct. That was my impression on this project. If you have Matt Kemp and someone offers you Dustin Pedroia straight up, do you accept it? I don't care if he's on the DL right now. There are 3+ months left.

I'm curious if he browses the cafe...

His doesnt look too much different from ours, I like ours more because there are multiple opinions that factor into our rankings.

I think pretty much any fantasy nerd keeps up on their reading of other websites, I know I do, would assume he must.

Yeah, I'm guessing he does. I know he's aware of us, and I believe has even mentioned us a few times in his work as well as playing a "pro-am" league with some of our guys for a few years not too long ago.

So all we have to do is take off our DL players and see if he bites, and changes his rankings to include DL guys as well. :-°
