My team is alright...It's not bad at all but there were a few guys I really wanted but that went right before they got to me. This draft was pretty frustrating to be honest, picking 8th is brutal BUT I'm done complaining. From this point on I'm happy.

I think I have a pretty impressive rotation, if José Férnandez comes back at 3/4 of what he was doing in 2013 I have 4 aces. I am a little thin in the closer department. Hoping that will work itself out within the first couple weeks of April and I can find an underrated closer who hasn't yet been picked.

LOL! Try picking 11th!!

Last year I tried to pick who I liked as players because I didn't understanding the fantasy scoring system.

That bombed!

This year I basically let the Yahoo ranking system draft for me, based on the best player available (according to the Yahoo rank) for the position I happen to be drafting for.

If that bombs again, I dunno what I'll do next year, LOL!

I did notice Yahoo added suggestions on the player list as to which round to draft people which is pretty sweet.

Don't forget to release Darvish and pick up another starting pitcher, Hank.

My brother, his two daughters, and his wife made the Giants Bleacher Report highlights.

Young Giants Fan Can't Believe He Didn't Catch Foul Ball | Bleacher Report

ESPN too....

Lynn beats Giants for 1st time, hurts ankle, Cardinals win

I recorded it from my TiVo feed and posted it on FB and sent it to his family in text message, but I sure didn't think it was gonna make the internet, LOL!

Thanks for creating and hosting the season, Matt.

Last years "Kale Men" didn't get it done, but all it took was a name change for the team, LOL!

It's really fun when the guys on the team produce , but not so much when they don't .

Thanks, Hank.

With the Giants out of the post season, it's gonna be a lot less stressful watching and enjoying all the great baseball that's gonna be played. Well, it'll be fun as long as someone knocks the Dudgers out!
