The Year Of Zack

Zack Greinke is on fire but check out Zack Duke's numbers, pretty darn good. I was lucky to pick Duke in the late rounds...hope he keeps up the production.....

Speaking of Zack, for the past few days on MLB.com, they've been running a banner ad on each team's site for MLB Clutch Performer (presented by Pepsi). On the Royals' site, the ad said "Vote for Zach Greinke".

Today it was finally fixed.

I guess when you have a 0.40 ERA, it's time for people to learn how to spell your name.

And I always thought it was Grainkey.

After listening to his radio interview, it wouldn't surprise me to see him sign his name incorrectly from time to time.

I told a few friends, he definitely is a product of the Florida Public School system.

Maybe he's from Curacao. Blue nose, please confirm.

I am hoping that this Year of Zack carries into NFBC performance too.

Forget all the prep work and projections. Think the new key is in a players name. My son is named Zack. Did not draft a Zack though. Took Lack ey

Belt ran Guess if he is available have to jump on Out man and Rich mond Ryan Brawn is another whose value could be name related

Good Job with the Zack drafting. My whole preperation for next year will be done on name related players. Last year in football I was in same league as Tom overall winner and Scott 3rd overall. Scott's daughter picked Housh in 2nd round probably too early but she liked his name so Scott picked him No need for stats or projections anymore. If the name hits home draft him LOL My daughter's name is Alison so for football next year any name ending in son will be on my hit list C Johnson Nick Johnson for BB

Kind of like my wife and the football pool.

"What color is Jacksonville?"

"Oh yeah, I'll go with Peyton, his commercials are good."

And, of course, she beats me like a drum.

Greinke has 1 win in 3 tries since this thread began. I could have guessed.
