Blues Blog: Raising a Stein for Steen

I realize a "stein" is a ceramic German beer mug and Alex Steen is Canadian-born and grew up in Sweden, but please allow me the license. And while we're at it, let's raise a pint for Perron. The two young forwards have the Blues off to a hopeful start early in the preseason.

Week 3 Observations

Solid tight ends and quarterbacks are a dime a dozen these days. Because most leagues only require one of each (and don't permit them to qualify anywhere else), running backs and receivers have even more value by comparison.

Monday Morning Thoughts

I received some recommendations for what I should use as a title for my posts.  What about the Payneis files?

Week 2 Observations

This was the worst sports weekend of my life since early 2001 when the Ravens destroyed the Giants in the Super Bowl. (To add insult to injury, I just wrote a 1000-word blog post that got deleted when I tried to submit it, and I couldn't retrieve it).

Monday Morning Thoughts

Some of my observations from yesterday's games.

Stay For a Nightcap! - Maple Bats Edition

Tyler Colvin had a shard of a broken maple bat hit him in the chest, while going from third base to home plate.  He suffered a punctured chest as a result of the injury.  He'll miss the remainder of the season, but should be ok long-term.  How long till MLB does something about these maple bats?

Interesting Spring Performances, Part One: The NL
As spring training ambles nonchalantly towards the finish line, it's always fun to take a look at spring stats to see who really jumps off the page and might be making some kind of statement or other...
My AL Tout Wars team
We did the AL Tout Wars draft Saturday morning, once again in "The Bubble" at the Sirius/XM studios. It was a different Tout experience than my usual drafts at Tout - lately I haven't paid for closers there, or spent much on my outfielders. But I'm also one to take the values where they fall. So to that end, here's my squad:
My NFBC Recap
I have never been one to hold up to peer pressure well. Since Peter, Jeff, and Chris did a NFBC challenge, I had to join the cool kids and do one too.

My "Beat Peter Schoenke" Draft Results.

My entry in the RotoWire Fantasy Baseball Online Championship was Monday night. Here's my quick take on the draft - this is a 12-team mixed league, 5x5 categories, 30 rosters spots (23 active), with no trades in the league. It has a top prize of $50,000 and a league prize of $1,400.
