Re: NFBC 4-Hour Draft Champions Deadline: Friday, March 18th

Can you transfer me to the 2 hour draft if the 4 hour doesn't fill?

Thanks Dough!

I just want to let you know that your columns are much appreciated! With little real baseball talk except the inevitable owner-player squabbles (I’ve yet to get a call from MLB for input from a fan), your jottings are a welcome respite. Thanks!

Re: Winners and Losers

Quite ironic about the Astros, I stayed away from them this year cause I thought they'd get blowback in opposing stadiums.

Good point on MLB players being some of our healthiest and resilient citizens. A thoughtful piece by Boras and offers some hope!

Re: Best Baseball Memories

In the early 70s I attended a double header between the Giants and Expos (May have been Padres - I consumed a few beers both before and during the contests). Three things stand about that day: 1). It was a double header! Two for one, can’t beat that, those days are gone. 2). In both ends of the doub...

Re: Best Baseball Memories

Another baseball memory of mine, that actually relates to fantasy quite closely, came in 1971. I left work early that day, headed out to Candlestick park, not sure why, I could only catch the last couple of innings. When I got there I saw a Giants player I didn't recognize in the on-deck circle. He ...

Best Baseball Memories

Just an effort to lighten things up a bit... what's your favorite baseball memory? Here's mine: In the mid 1960s I was a young teen and caddied at the Presidio golf course in San Francisco. As caddies we played for free on Mondays. One Monday four of us caddies were on the 5th hole and we were appro...

Re: Open Chat With Greg, Tom & Darik

Not to be a downer but I believe that a range of plans is in order, including no MLB 2020 season. If you look at the disease inflection curves for the U.S. they resemble Italy and France, not China and South Korea.

Re: Corona virus - NO BULLSHIT Thread

I disagree that this is a media over-reaction. We’re now in a pandemic in a country that was slow to react to an impending crisis. I think personal reactions may be different depending on age and geographic location. You may feel more insulated if you’re younger and in an area where the disease is l...
