The View From The Glass House

by Dennis March 17, 2011

  COMMENT:  Great photo of Jenkins taken at the “Flat Earth Society” meeting in July.     I recently mocked a piece by Bruce Jenkins in which he suggested that the Giants might buy out the remainder of Barry Zito‘s contract.  Given the opportunity, I’d still mock the article as illogical speculation driven by a need […]

If It Ain’t Broke…

by Dennis March 17, 2011

…Don’t Fix It!  Also, don’t add another round to the playoffs, either.  Oh, I don’t just sit around the #ManCave all winter long trying to dream up ways to eat large burritos with plastic sporks.  I also concern myself with the national pastime and the different ways people propose meddling with it.  Consider the possibility […]

One Last Desperate Plea

by Dennis March 16, 2011

This is one last desperate plea from Statler, Waldorf, and myself.  Kyle McClellan joined the two Muppets in the back of the theater, but he doesn’t want to speak on his on behalf at this point.  That’s fine.  I’m bringing the heat and blathering enough for all 4 of us.  We’ve got one simple message. Leave […]

Not The News – Vol VI

by Dennis March 14, 2011

I was going to attempt to start off with something funny and/or clever here, but I’m a little sluggish after the “Daylight Saving Time” atrocity over the weekend, and I also desperately need more cowbell in my life.  So, without any additional fanfare or merrymaking, here is Volume VI: LATOS AND LINCECUM TO STAR IN […]

Runner’s Indifference

by Dennis March 13, 2011

Darn the limitations of the 25 man roster.  If ever there was a year the Cardinals could use a 30 man roster, it’s 2011.  It’s not that the team would be all that much better (it probably would), it’s just that it would probably be a bit more fun to watch.  Take Matt Carpenter for […]

Blame It On The Rain

by Dennis March 11, 2011

Okay, so I’ve given you plenty of ideas on how to keep busy until spring training without getting arrested (no, it didn’t cover all the way until the regular season).  I’ve also provided some etiquette reminders just so everybody remembers how to behave themselves when baseball gets back into a park near you.  Finally, I provided […]

Bring The $145M Ruckus

by Dennis March 11, 2011

Yeah, that’s right.  If you combine the Wu Tang Clan and my fantasy baseball team, you would have a $145M ruckus.  Why?  That’s just how I roll.  Check out my 25 draft picks, and you’ll understand why. Robinson Cano (2B) David Wright (3B) Ubaldo Jimenez (P) Buster Posey (C/1B) Jose Bautista (OF/3B) Mat Latos (P) Carlos Marmol (P) Corey Hart (OF) Nick […]

10 Darn Good Reasons to Play Fantasy Baseball

by Dennis March 10, 2011

This post is dedicated to all the WAGs (Wives and Girlfriends) and HABs (Husbands and Boyfriends) who complain, gripe, and yell  constructively criticize their significant others for playing fantasy baseball.  It shouldn’t come to this.  There must be a better way.  Millions of people play fantasy sports.  It’s practically ubiquitous.  It’s so commonplace that I’m […]

Thin Brew Line

by Dennis March 9, 2011

Zack Greinke suffered an injury during an “off-the-field” activity a few weeks ago.  Turns out that the activity was basketball, and his injury was a broken rib.  Greinke injured himself going after a rebound, and all this happened before he threw a single pitch in a spring training game.  Greinke then went on to make […]

The Weekly (?) Pujols – 03.08.2011

by Nick March 9, 2011

On the morning of January 19th, I started collecting links – as many as I can find with minimal effort – that discuss the Albert Pujols contract discussions. Why? Who knows, yet here they are. Oh, and to serve you all, our three loyal readers! The Daily Pujols certainly won’t be a comprehensive list, but between […]
