How close is it?

two tight races! Bill, do you have a shot?

Mark, Luke, and I are in a dogfight for last place.

Woah

now i'm in last place?? NOOOOO. Wall of Shame must be avoided.

Kind of Crazy

Assuming Caleb or Bill win this year (and it looks like it'll be a hell of a race), that will mean that Caleb, Bill or Spencer has won in every year of baseball (5) and every year but 1 in football.

Caleb, Bill or Spencer has won in 91% of our baseball/football leagues. That has to be statistically significant right?

Explaining Jose Bautista

"It's not too [f------] easy to hit home runs when you don't know what's coming!"

Now that their gig is out, will Bautista be able to keep up his Rogers Center homerun rate?

Off topic

Really good read on Kei Igawa.

I had no idea he was still in the states, much less in NYC.

Dumping

I'm finally doing it. Make me some offers this weekend if you're into Josh Hamilton, Mauer, Ichiro, Max Scherzer, Soria et al.

Trade Deadline

I just noticed that the trade deadline is at noon next Friday. Noon on a Friday I think is generally a bad time, but next week in particular I have to take 4 exams and then move out of my apartment by Friday, so I pretty much won't be paying any attention to fantasy baseball at all next week. I plan on making it not an issue by getting trades done by the end of this weekend, but still I'd be interested in moving the deadline a couple days. Last year I remember we did it late on a Sunday night, which I thought was a pretty good time and gave everybody the best chance of being able to put time into trade decisions. Anybody else up for moving the trade deadline to, say, 9 PM PST Sunday the 14th?
