It struck me in the middle of the night that my baseball frustration is simply due to setting my sights too high. Rather than compare my hitting against other fantasy teams, I'll pick on someone my own size. Let's say my 14 active hitters vs Matt Treanor. Now that's a fair fight.



Week 6 Results to date:

Treanor 3AB, .667 BA, 1 Run, 1 HR, 3 RBI, O SB

My Team 122 AB, .180 BA, 7 Runs, 1 HR, 2 RBI, 0 SB



Treanor wins the head to head battle



I'm now going to pack my morning bowl of oatmeal into my nostrils and asphyxiate myself.

FUDD - was that a thinly veiled attempt at saying you suck at fantasy baseball too ? :D

Suicide attempt failed. Missed my nose and hit my eye with the first spoonful. Came to my senses and jumped back on my horse ready to do more battle.



Get in here and fight. Treanor!



I'm setting an over/under for my team's RBIs this week. 10 first came to mind, but that's a little arrogant on my part. I set it at 5. Place your bets.

I only hope I can some day be just 1/2 the player you are and I'll consider myself successful. :D

At least you're killing Treanor in ABs , right??

And if you can just find a way to get that 1 SB, you'll likely beat him in another category too!

Atta boy, Lance. He needs to be stopped in his tracks.



Actually, my boys rallied and spanked him over the weekend so it's on to bigger fish.



Paul Bako, come on down.
