I was nodding my head to the Bears preview. Maybe I could have held onto Gonzalez and increased my Wild Card chances from like 5% to 10%. Didn't seem worth it. Hopefully my plethora of mediocre starters can be more productive in a bullpen role.
Your staff is full of weird overachievers. Kinda fun to own really.

Great jog on the Media Guide! I always start by hunting for stuff on my team and then read through the rest. I found a couple of interesting things on my team.

#1 German Romero is the 5th top guy against LHP in 2050, pretty good for a pinch hitter. BTW-He already has a pinch hit walk off homer this season.

#2 Good Cop/Bad Cop - Very accurate on the Bad Cop. I have always overpaid for 1B/DH power hitter types. I drool over the ones still in FA, but I can't find a place for them. I already have Romero and 2-3 of those guys in my minors. It is an addition, but the observation is 100% accurate.

#3 Really enjoyed Chis' preview and Backhouse is proving him right.

Now I need to read about Skeeter and the UMEBA scandal!

Wow, this is quality. Thanks to all who wrote.

To the person that wrote my team analysis; 2 questions:
- how can I hire you as an analist? ;)
- want to trade for KARTOSUWIRYO? :D
Thanks, yours was the most difficult because of your "combine" situation and not knowing who was actually going to make the team.

I feel like I remember you sneakily liking Baird when I drafted him, albeit as a mid rotation guy.

Baird fell barely out of my top ten. Actually I did a pretty good job that year other than Tynan Potter, who lumped a little and whom I still think is a bit underrated.

Catching up on reading the Media Guide - at least parts of it! The UMEByeBye section was hilarious. Does anyone feel there is this weird parallel between the BBA/UMEBA and what is going on now with PGA/LIV in golf?

Another thing @CTBrewCrew ... I noticed the Media guide link for the the 2051 doesn't work for the website - http://montybrewster.net/media-guides-2/

Hadn't even thought of that, but now that you mention it, yes!
