Not to be mean or cause an uproar, but this has to be the worst rule proposal I have ever seen. Because some of us follow hs and foreign players we shouldn't be penalized. How about this, I am sure some people don't follow A ball so why don't we limit the draft to just AA players. From som...

All - Here are the official rule proposals for the upcoming season. Thanks to everyone who took the time to think through issues and submit rules. Since everyone who submitted proposals has also provided a rationale for them, I am also going to include those rationales. Of cou...

High Schoolers

With the tune-up of the regular season over, Santa Fe went all medeivel on Camden for a 4-game sweep. I don't have the stats with me, but SFE scored something like 40 runs in the series, capping it off with a 6-0 win in Game 4 behind a Zach Greinke shutout. Congrats to Camden on winning their divis...

This morning I deleted a couple of political posts. While I certainly love the first amendment and everyone's right to freedom of speech and vigorous debate, this board is not the place for it, and I intend to delete any political or mean-spirited posts or other things that just do not belong. If a...

With the regular season over, the Roger Clemens Trading Season has begun. Not that any of you likely need it, but here is a quick refresher on his 2005 season: 1.87 ERA (0.52 better than anyone else in MLB) 32 Starts, 232.5 adjusted IP 151 hits, 62 walks, 185 strikeouts, 11 HR allowed ....

Hdt backed into the playoffs going 4-10 in series 13 vs Dav, but thanks to Gary and his Assassins from Aus beating up Was 10 out of 14, Hdt secures another division title. OK Gary, I'll let you hang out with me again in Vegas this year. Hdt overcame season ending injuries to Halladay, Sexson, Glaus and O...

No, Skype isn't a new hot prosepct. It is a free internet calling service that allows you to actually speak directly to people all over the world. I use it to talk to my sister in UAE. If you don't have it search Skype on a search engine and download. It took like 3 minutes to down...

As much as it pains me to speak of moving my guys during the playoffs, I feel compelled to say something about Laramie's plans for next season. Whether we finally win the WS will be a big factor in determining how hard I try to build this team into a juggernaut. Either way, LAR should b...
