Each team is supposed to have 32 players on the roster, but c'mon, that's just a bit too many. I'm going with 30 per team. Ah, round numbers. I'll keep the 'every team has to be represented' rule since c'mon, that's part of the fun. And this is one of the few years in recent memory when every team has at least one legitimate candidates. No Mark Redmans to be found here! Also, assume everyone is healthy and able to play. Oh, and the fan balloting is being ignored completely, as it should be.

Thursday FTB: a breath of fresh air

There must be some sort of mistake, Shuk, as I actually have a couple of these guys on my fantasy team.
While I'm pretty sure I've lost the right (like: forever) to talk about baseball: Jeter? His numbers are roughly comparable to Guillen's (except for slugging, where Guillen's a good fifty points higher) and he actually plays SS.
Also: K-Rod for Cy Young? Failing that (or, possibly, in addition), do you think he'll break the save record? I'm excited about the prospect of Bobby Thigpen (who I believe is some sort of hobo now) getting his name back into the news...
