I have discovered the problem

I have discovered that Gary Sheffield has been telling other players on my team how great it is to be on the DL. Apparently he is very convincing.

"I don't want to take a chance," said Ordonez, third Tiger this month to go on the DL due to an oblique muscle pull. "You know when it is not going to be OK, and it is going to be a miracle if you feel better. "Sheff (Gary Sheffield) told me, 'You've got to take care of it.' "

I'd want to be on the DL if I played for your team too. Why risk anything when you are 30 or so points out of first?

Magglio might also be thinking that if he spends enough time on the DL this year he won't be kept.

You have to watch out for that Gary Sheffield. He's a malcontent, and can poison a clubhouse. I didn't realize that extended to fantasy though.

So, Spencer. Are you doing your best Peter Angelos imitation and refusing to give up and rebuild? Can we count on you doing this every single year, no matter what the standings and the talent on your team?

mock away children. we'll see what happens when your best player is traded to the NL in the offseason.

Please, the Rangers aren't trading Kinsler anytime soon (God, it is so weird that he has been my best player by far). And to think, I nearly kept someone else instead of him.

According to Yahoo! he's actually the most valuable player this year so far (even more so than Hamilton). Very strange that so much value comes out of the rangers...who were you planning on keeping Bill?

The Yahoo rankings have always been a mystery to me. I have never found any explanation on how they are calculated. To be fair, I've never really looked, but they do seem very odd from time to time.
