The way I look at it is if he gets 25 saves, he's worth the $6 I paid to keep him and he's only 5 saves from that which means I'll be getting bonus production from him for a good portion of the season. That makes him a very good investment as does you getting him in the 14th round. Great value pick ...

Sooner, I had Graves as a $6 keeper in my NL-only league. I loved him going into this season, but I sure didn't expect 20 saves before the end of June. He's been outstanding. They never should've attempted to turn him into a starter last season; he simply doesn't have the stuff for that role. But he...

Good story about Sheffield. He's certainly gone on to many big things since forcing his way out of Milwaukee, but Brewers' fans will never forget his comments about how he would intentionally commit errors because he hated playing for the team back then. What a guy. And it is a shame about Sexson. H...

Minor-leaguers who did not play 20 games at any position in 2003 but who still played at least one game in the majors last year, will qualify at the positi...

Yea that's probably true. I covered the NFL for 9 years, so I probably lean a little more toward football than baseball though I've been playing fantasy baseball since the late 80s.

Nomo reminds me of what often happens to NFL running backs when they reach 30 years of age. They hit that wall and they don't nudge it, they slam right into it and become worthless almost overnight.

Which bid wins?
From STATS: "Sosa would be dropped in both scenarios. The first initial bid doesn't have
any affect on which conditional bid goes through. If there's a "tie" like in the scenario below, the first bid entered has to be processed first."
