Hope all is well and I look forward to seeing some of you in Las Vegas in a few weeks. Wanted to share an interview I had with Lindy Hinkelman, Stephen Jupinka and Dave Potts on my site, FantasyGuru.com. If you have a subscription, you'll be able to access it. You might note that I highlighted some ...

Wayne, truly enjoy this blog and reading about our league from your perspective. It's a rough start here, but, like you said, it's early. Nice work.

Vlad

People sending me congratulations on my 11-week old...I appreciate it, but I don't have any kids yet!

Cali Cartel is Russ Prentice, not me.

Hope everyone is well. See most of you in Vegas.


Vlad

I know most of you have been in baseball mode since the 2015 season ended. I just turned the page from football so I have six weeks to catch up with the field. Here's a look at the first team I did the research for: http://www.scout.com/fantasy/story/1630005-2016-baltimore-orioles-team-outlook Shaw...

Krukster is Heberlig of course. That dude is everywhere. Congrats to those who cashed!

Jump on in fellas, the water's warm.

Could you add me to the list, Greg? Main Event in Vegas Week 1 and splitting a Primetime the night before.

Thanks,
Vlad

Anyone else want to share their squads in this contest tonight? Couldn't fade Chavez in that matchup, but really wanted to go with Robbie Ross. My squad: SP - Chavez (48%) C - Arencibia (5%) 1b - Moss (5%) 2b - Utley (15%) 3b - Aramis (29%) SS - Hanley (23%) OF - Braun (33%), Crisp (16%), Rios (7%) ...

Really looking forward to this.

I'm sure all of you sharks know this, but be careful with players in games that may end up getting rained out.

Good luck!


Vlad

We can enter up to five times, right?


(kidding!)


Vlad

Sweet, I'll be at the Dodgers/Rockies game Friday night. Won't get to see all the action (unless I put a couple COL/LAD guys on my team)

Genius idea. Great job guys!


Vlad

Thanks, guys. Finally a decent hitting day (.351) powered by Ells and Bruce. Archer / G.Cole / The Sink (Koehler) all won and put up decent outings over the last couple of days. Ready for Darvish! It's a marathon, not a sprint of course...and I'm just now putting my shoes on and stretching. ;) Vlad

This is awesome Greg, well done. My only comment would be for the side list, if we could somehow how that pane as we scrolled the player list down, this would be absolutely perfect. I don't understand this Vlad. What could we make better? I can translate: He wants to know if you can make the "pendi...

Not sure if this has ever occurred in NFBC history, and if so, if someone would even publicize this. My Main Event team went 0-38 last night! I can only laugh since it's week 1 and things can only get better (right?) My team is hitting 8-146 (.053 on the season) and had Wilson Ramos. You can't make ...

Craig - but no comment about showing up on time this year? At least give the boys that.



-Vlad

phenomenal work, Tom!

Vlad - you asked for help buddy! ;) Didn't want you getting into work today for no reason. Not a fan of doing battle with you or Christie, but it will probably make us all better DOWN the road when the bigger cash is on the line. Good Luck, see you later. KM Haha, yep. I definitely can't complain. ...

Ken "Sack" Magner? Greeeaaaat!

COME ON, FELLAS!!!! I came in to work 3 hours early today just to get home in time for this draft.


Vlad

The $15 spent on Minor / Teheran / Villanueva was money well spent. Solid staff, guys.



Vlad

We already have 5 of 12 spots filled for this special Rotowire Fantasy Baseball Online Championship League and it already has a West Coast flavor. 4 of the first 5 owners are from California. Let's fill this one up and let Chris start smack talkin'!! :lol: Thanks all. Here's the current signup list...

Well - anyone but Potts who whipped me good last year in my OC's FAAB and Ruland/Gagne since we'll probably steal all each other's picks.

So does this mean nobody wants to join this Saturday's OC draft at 4pm EST?

@RotoGutGuy

the prevailing thought here seems to be that the 15-team leagues are the "pro" format while the 12-team leauges are for the masses sure, but all the non-live 15-teamers are satellites - no overall prizes. Some good cash available to win here in OC. Okay, I'll stop beating the dead-horse - just want...
