Given his Clemens-like offseason preparation, Mark is going to do a 'Mission Impossible' at Dr. Philippon's residence to get the real scoop on ARod.

So the guy who drafts after him can plan their strategy better. Big draft strategy difference between those guys, Speed VS Power. Gata keep them on their toes

Not that playing with Quahogs wasn't a blast last year, but having the #3 ranked + 2 more in the top #40 is just depressing!!!



What is the hardest league so far??? Not that unranked doesn't mean 'easy' because they could be the next Childs or Jupinka, but when you in there with a Jupinka you know you have a tough battle ahead!

6. Robert FitzGerald, Bethel, Connecticut- #86

7. Craig Kielinski, Exton, Pennsylvania- #93*

8. Scott Newman, Princeton, New Jersey- #220

9. John Wojtowicz, Cranford, New Jersey- #124

10. Zack Stair, Perkiomenville, Pennsylvania- unranked

Coincidence that the #3 lifetime guy has first pick? And 3 out of the last 4 picks are "unranked"......hmmmmm

THIS IS GOOD STUFF ,you can get an idea of how many top 100 to 150 teams in a league.Can we get some more of the's , very intersting.What league has the most unranked players or newbie's.

Hardbizz thats a foolish statement, I think Quahogs were going to draft a good team from whatever slot he got. I personally think people make to much of a big deal about where they draft from, it lets you maybe get an idea of your first few picks but the draft will be won or lost in the middle rounds. I mean if the guys you want go right before your pick then that slot sucks and you can have the 14th pick and get all your targets. Good Luck everyone!

LEAGUE 6

1. John Gifford, Skowhegan, Maine #141

2. Mark Srebro, York, Pennsylvania #30

LOL, its all in good humor...... thats all, but let me just say..... Owners should not be so religious on this "Rankings"... All it means is that these individuals have been participating at the site..... I myself have been participating and running Fantasy Leagues for 11 years now.... Who's to say that these ranked guys have "cashed" in and/or won more baseball leagues than I have or the other "unranked" owners in the league... I actually LOVE the fact that this Top Rank owner is in my division....cuz I will prove myself and he will bow down...ohhhhhhhh, LOL
