Hey folks...I'm going to be putting together the Media Guide this year, so please do start getting your thoughts together. Here are some key points:
- This is a cornerstone of our league. I want a big book of fake baseball goodness. Please just have fun getting your baseball nerd on.
- Befitting the value of the Media Guide, this year PPT bonuses are going up!
- You've seen these before. Almost anything relevant goes. Stories, analysis, advertisements, poems and haiku, jokes, whatever. Just have fun with fake baseball.
- I can always use Previewers!
- Don't worry about typos. I make 'em all the tyme.
- If you want to contribute but don't know how, feel free to ask me for a project to write about and I'll give you an assignment!
- Preferred deadline will be two days before Opening Day, though I've been known to slam a few extra bits in for late arrivals.
- It would be helpful if let me know you're working on something either by responding below or hitting me up via PM/Discord.
- Send me stuff either on Discord or email at roncollins13_at_gmail.com.

Thanks Ron, the Media Guide sets the league apart for sure. So awesome.
I am looking for a subject for Big League Chew. If you want to have some fun with a quick Q&A via Discord let me know. If you are in Chicago and want to do it over beers we can just sit and type while we look at each other and pound some suds afterwards. lol.

Big League Chew is spoken for. Should be another great discussion this year!

I can do the minor league wrap again this year if no one else wants it; I can also continue the “Nuggets” feature I started last season.

Any GBC folks want to take half of the GBC previews, and I'll do the other half?

I will be happy to guess wrong on the Frontier Division again as a preview. Hopefully I will be able to add more and have fewer mistakes than last year.

Sujoy the Collector is busy breaking packs trying to pull some of those sweet post-season awards cards. I know he's been itching to get his hands on a
Tom Allen or
Francisco Calderon Joe Gilstrom Rookie of the Year.

All right, gents and others...last call on the Previews. Claim the Pacific or the Frontier (or the last half of the GBC) now. If not, I'll start working on them myself tomorrow.

Ron, I have been out of town dealing with a family emergency all week. I likely will not get to mine.

Oh no! Hope all is okay. I'll work on the Pacific first. If you can make it, let me know in the next few days. Otherwise I'll charge along.
