Re: Andrew Miller
Giolito's "stuff" not performing as expected, at least this year. if he was throwing as expected it would cost alot more than andrew miller. the yankees can afford to go out and buy the next break out RP who could be as good as miller, but they are going to have a really hard time finding someone a...

Re: Player nicknames
sure.. i got Triple F or FFF.....for Fat F#ck Fielder.... also known affectionately as Fatty if he happens to get a hit which is rare.
I hate andrew cashner's beard and frankly his pitching so i refer to him as White Trash Cash.
But in general... "Loser" is what most of my team goes by.

Re: New York Fantasy Sports Legislation
For those folks living in Pennsylvania be aware of a bill that was introduced and passed quickly last night. This is a DFS bill that also has legalized online gambling and it was rushed through last night. I have no idea what the final DFS fees are or even if they include season-long, but it defini...

while on the subject. i have never been able to understand why STATS is bothering to count LF, RF, and CF games played (or appeared at) as opposed to just OF games played. Are there NFBC leagues where this info is important? I just picked up Paredes this week and while seeing where he stands on game...

Hey Josh, your heavyweight teammate was getting his ass handed to him by a bantamweight I have to disagree with this. Just because Odor landed a punch that Bautista wasn't expecting doesn't equal getting your ass handed to you. Watch the video again. Bautista falls back slightly but would have crus...

Re: Free speech be damned --- Curt Schilling fired
Obama was the best President of my lifetime, but I don't view him as much of progressive . The people who believe he is flawless give him credit for things like nominating a moderate Supreme Court Justice to put pressure on the Republicans. The truth is Obama likes Merrick Garland and his support o...

Re: Laroche to retire?
Guess I'm on the other side of the argument.... LaRouche apparently had a deal with the team and the team went back on the deal. Seems to me that the life lessons he is teaching is son are as follows: * A man's word is his bond * When you make a lot of money, you don't have to put up with managemen...

Re: Live Chat With Greg: Thursday 6 pm ET
Hey Greg, thanks for taking the time to answer some questions. my question is regarding player position eligibility. when I load this years ADP every player has only 1 listed position even if they are eligible at multiple positions.

Re: Let's revisit Friday lineup changes for P
Okay here is one more example of why we need a change in the current procedures.... Archie Bradley (AZ) was placed on the 15-day DL Thursday with right shoulder tendinitis. Robbie Ray was called up from Triple-A to start Thursday's game, essentially taking Bradley's spot in the D-Backs' rotation. S...

Re: Lester
Lester is a slow starter every year out so i think its a bit early to be jumping ship or calling him out as draft bust. now im not sure anyone but theo would disagree that financially he will probably be a big burden to the cubs down the line. his intangibles, like his incredible work ethic, were wo...

Re: Accurate ADP by position
Is there someplace I can find the March 1st forward ADP listed by position? If I try to do this on the current ADP list it is not accurate. Billy Butler does not show up on the first base list for example. It gets very confusing. I was hoping there is some place that I can gather that info. Thank y...

Re: Accurate ADP by position
i asked this on another thread but this is a more appropriate one: Why are players ranked so vastly different from the NFBC ADP page to the Draft Prep page?

Re: Fantasy Tip-Catchers
i find Catcher to be a bit of a mirage this year. the list seems good but when you look closer i think you'll find alot of warts, injury concerns, and playing time issues. mccann is interesting for power and perhaps rbi but a 233 avg is going to kill you, especially with all of his abs. thats also h...
