Hey, we’re almost back to normal. DeGrom scratched with INJURY (not Covid related). His owners take a big fat zero this week the old fashioned way.

Re: Florida Man ruins 2020 MLB Season (RIP)

Fingers crossed but tomorrow could be the first time in almost three weeks that all 30 MLB teams play on the same day. The St. Louis Cardinals are expected to return tomorrow with a doubleheader at Chicago against the White Sox. They are going to play seven doubleheaders the rest of the way to brin...

Re: FAAB - Marlins Daniel Castano

I just looked in a league I'm in and he's available. Which league don't you see him available in? I believe I found out what happened. I was looking at some faab yesterday in a league. I woke up and started looking at some other faab (while in the same league). There were a couple pitchers that pit...

FAAB - Marlins Daniel Castano

Yesterday, Marlins rookie, Daniel Castano started against the Mets. I'm looking for him in the FAAB pool (and it's after 7am); however I don't see him listed. From the Rules, "Once a minor-leaguer plays his first game in the majors, he remains in every NFBC FAAB pool whether he returns to the minors...

Re: The Countdown to 600

But the incredibly stupid travel schedule falls on MLB and Manfred. Who cares where they play? Stop traveling from city to city. Stop all players from sitting together in the dugout. Mandate masks if that helps. Have a compliance officer travel with each team if needed and keep track of EVERYONE. T...

Re: The Countdown to 600

I'm not going to take a side in the debate yet as to how lucky this year's ME winner will be. It's too hard to predict at this time. IF everybody knew a month ago all these games were going to be "postponed" this first week from a COVID perspective, no one would have signed up for this reboot seaso...

As the frustrations with this season pile up we now have a new countdown to follow and track. The countdown to 600 games played to constitute a complete season should they abandon the season prematurely. So far we're at 92 Joe - Will you be updating the countdown clock? I could either look at that ...

Hi KJ - You must be just making a general observation about "quitters" as I don't see anyone quitting here. What I do see is a total MLB shit show. Greg's game is still fantastic and the best on the planet; however COVID and MLBs handling of it is turning this all into one big dart throw or a push o...
