So, when I got on a plane to come home today, Hanley Ramirez was listed as D2D, so I played Brandon Belt.  Belt went 0/2.  Ramirez ended up playing and went 2/4 with 2 Runs, 2 HR's, and 6 RBI's.

I actually came back today and beat Bison 7-3.  I think I started the day down 8-2.

Lots of butt kicking last week. For a while I thought I would be shut out. I am glad I only lost 2-8.

I need more weeks like last week.  Of course, I've also used up all my roster moves and have a pitcher on the DL.  I was swapping players like mad in the first 10 weeks of the season just trying to see what I could pull off to stay competitive.

You'll be wishing you saved some of that production later on down the line ;)

Not true just ask A-Rod.


Howdy, Bison.  Nice to see you.

Can we just all take a moment and appreciate how much ass Trea Turner is kicking?

His last 2 weeks...

R- 17
HR- 2
RBI- 8
SB- 7
Avg- .422


According to Yahoo, he's the #2 ranked player in the league over the last 14 days, behind only - his fellow Shotgun Express outfielder, Kris Bryant.
(But lets also remember that everyone knew Bryant was going to knock the cover off the ball, but Turner started the season in AA, was a SS forced to play 2B in the minors, and is now patrolling CF for the Nats because he was doing too well on the basepaths to stay in the minors)

Yes I'm well aware of how good he is doing. He is part of the reason are kicking my ass this week :(.   

I'm just glad the O's aren"t playing the Nats any more. He was 8 for 8 at one point!

Sometime players just put up unbelievable numbers and other times unbelievable players product jack squat.  Yeah I'm looking at you Bryce Harper.

third place, bitches!

(yes, I'm celebrating third f'n' place.  seriously.  I probably won't finish the season here, but when was the last time I was even close to the top half of the league this late in the season?!?!
