I saw that on Sportscenter last night, that's one of the best saves of the season so far. DiPietro had a terrific glove save too yesterday. I've been considering adding Nittymaki in my fantasy hockey league. I finally dropped Backstrom (Min) and haven't decided if I want to carry 3 or 4 goalies. Conklin, Gerber and Garon is what I have now. I might opt for Harding over Antero if I do, still.

I was being civil about things, but the fact is I'd love to be in a money league with you if you're drafting Russ Martin 4th overall.

I'm not really sure what benefit there is in your methodology in using comparative distributions for the players. Fantasy baseball is purely about stat accumulation, so it might be more prudent to value players based on how much they will contribute to your overall bottom line (based on projections in this case). Assume we have sufficient data to suggest the average 10 team league will have totals of 930 R, 235 HR, 900 RBI, 125 SB, .285 BA, arbitrarily. This is a simplification of what I've seen in various places. Wouldn't it make the most sense to equate everything in terms of scarcity, relational to runs for instance. So, every HR is worth 3.96 pts, a RBI virtually = 1, SBs 7.44 pts, etc. Avg is a different story, but it could still be worked out similarly. Wouldn't that give you the best indicator of true value for a player's production? How much of your team's final totals they'll accrue. That at least seemed to me to be the logical way of ranking players, but steals specialists came out with exaggerated values. I haven't had much time to think about it more, but I figured that the most sensible way to go.

NSBB Mock NFL Draft: Vance (Cowboys)

I'll be a Jaguars rep. -
Zach Randolph would be the league MVP if he only played games against the Pistons.
-
well, NE wins next week: 41-10.
-
I think Wayne broke Florence's ankles.
-
The Chargers have been opportunistic thus far, that's for sure.
-
I hate Rodney Harrison. and Wes Welker. And Junior Seau.
-
They weren't talking about them much when they were up 2 scores.
-
The announcers don't have much use for the Seahawks.
-
I wonder if any Packers fans would prefer Javon Walker over Jennings still.
-
This one's far from over.
-
Wow. Ryan Grant.
-
Catchers are far too high-risk/low-reward to merit such inflated rankings. As long as you can get one of the top-6 or so catchers out there, you'll be fine. I would reach on one if the only other alternatives were players the level of Estrada/Napoli, but there's more depth in the position than your rankings indicate. I definitely would not draft a catcher in the top 25. There's other disagreements I have, but that's moreso with Bill James. I see Towles is this year's Chris Iannetta, who he had as .900+ OPS last year.
-
Chargers are the sole upset this week. Though I'd give anything for a Jaguars win tonight.
-
What's the fantasy league scoring system these are reflecting?
-
I'd give it a shot.

You can't be serious. If Theriot was as good as DeRosa we'd have the best lineup in the NL. As it is, Theriot is one of baseball's worst regulars. Theriot's similar to DeRosa only in that they're both capable of playing second base. Oh, my faux pas. I forgot to put quotes around the second sentence, that I plagiarized.
-
Bavasi only does that trade if he wants to see what an angry mob would look like.
-
I don't see the love for Derosa. A three year contract worth $13 million, but we've got a similar player that costs $300,000 in Ryan Theriot.
-
Truth and your opinion are two vastly different things. Truth isn't often wrong.

I'm more curious about their conservative take on Lee's playing time. Because it's based on past data, 2006 provides a bias for Lee's playing time.
