Mike should (and probably will) have the last word, but I could not resist adding my congratulations. I am sure it was hard fought but if anyone of us deserved a win like this, it would be you.

Monster season! Well played and congratulations!

From another era where the THOUGHT of sitting out a game to "protest" would have gotten you an ice bath...not just for the elbow!

Goodbye Tom Terrific! You are missed.

While we were waiting, wondering if we were EVER gonna get baseball, I found something in my basement. Stuck in the corner was an old bag that I used to haul around my bats, gloves, etc. In the bag was one, left shoe from a pair of cleats. It was kinda muddy and I did not recognize it. To see if I c...

Fair to say I guess that Childs and Ferrari are "In" on Tony Gonsolin....

What penalty would Commissioner Ambrosius levy on Alex C*ntron? Before you answer, look at how many times I own mother defending, hero of our times, Ramon Laureano. Well for being a big man with his mouth and then scurrying behind three other players when Laureano came over to fight, I'd first star...

I do not have many Marlins or Phillies, but my team is doing so well, I am drifting around with these other winners....



"Wayne, have you met Folty, Mikolas, LeClerc, and Hosmer?"

Early MVP candidate.

"Austin Barnes will start at catcher for the Dodgers in their Opening Day game on Thursday night against the Giants. Will Smith will be the primary catcher this season in Los Angeles, but manager Dave Roberts doesn't want to overwork the youngster." Overwork him? It is the first freakin' game of the...

Wayne, is that a rocket in the air, or Vince Velasquez rising 100 spots in ADP.

I actually like that one, but at the end of the day Vince will throw like Elton. So to take him...

We are SOLD OUT of the NFBC Sprint Main Event at 38 leagues and 570 teams. THANKS to everyone who participated and good luck. Updated prizes will be posted soon. Absolutely freaking amazing. I wonder if you, Tom, Darik and team (not sure who the team is but didn't want to leave anyone out) have sle...

Let's see...sell my whale bone corset stock and buy up Givens...better check with KJ Duke to see if that is a wise move!

This guy?

Thsnks, Dan! An embarrasment of riches. In my three drafts, I have a #3 and two #1's. I will have Acuna in at least one, but have to think about maybe Yelich or Betts for one to "diversify"....good problem to have! https://64.media.tumblr.com/9b47aa1db1b4fa50f95aad319c4bddae/tumblr_ndm70l1ikL1s0y84k...

Hint: For the NFBC Sprint Main Events Thursday, July 23 3 pm ET, Ronald Acuna, Jr. will not be available for you in the first round! :D Big surprise, right? Looks like (another) tough league. Looking forward to it! https://i0.wp.com/prospects365.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/ronald-acuna-jr.gif?res...

Amazing. In such a short time. Not blowing smoke up your skirt, but when MLB finally announced the "sprint" season, I thought you would be lucky to get 405 or 420 signups.

Congratulations!

I'm looking forward to competing against you guys.

Alan, the pleasure will be all mine!

Now you are talking....still, there is always that first reaction that makes you feel that you are an integral part of an Abbott & Costello routine "Who's on first?" (OK, valid question for Atlanta) "What's on second?" (Angels) "I don't know is on third." (Texas) "I don't give a darn!" (Shortstop......

But the good news, Dan, is that we get to go head-to-head again (8:00 pm ET on the 23rd). Of course, there are some other no-names in the league like Schroter, Smith, Butler, Schechter, Waggener, Childs/Ferrari and Cha (who I already have in two of my three leagues...yeah!!!). Gonna be interesting.....

Great stuff, Dan!

I am in at either of the price points. My only concern is I do not want a Roger Maris-style asterisk after my name when I win the overall this year! https://media.tenor.com/images/2b7eb33fa4b931a20cb33dbe70e447c4/tenor.gif Wayne, this is Fantasy Baseball, not Fantasy Island. An asterisk next your n...

OK, I'll play the contrarian: I think that everything should just be pro-rated, like the player salaries, at roughly 37%. So an entry fee of $625 leads to a grand prize of $55,000. If that lower fee generates a higher number entries you can upwardly adjust the payoffs as soon as the season begins. ...
