Baseball at last

I really like baseball. My overarching goal in life right now is to get my own TV and satellite with a subscription to the Sky Sports premium channels including NASN, so I can watch some hardball.

Fantasy baseball is a blast. Here is my roster, in a 14-team league. Let me know what you think. (I can already tell that there will be no comments, because this does not interest anyone other than me.)

C: Michael Barrett
1B: Phil Nevin
2B: Alfonso Soriano
SS: Jimmy Rollins
3B: Aaron Boone
OF: Juan Pierre, Aaron Rowand, Hideki Matsui
Util: Carlos Guillen
Bench: Bernie Williams, Jason Giambi, Dmitri Young

Starters: Rich Harden, A.J. Burnett, Orlando Hernandez, Woody Williams, Bartolo Colon, Mark Buehrle, Jeff Suppan

Releivers: Joe Nathan, Scott Linebrink.

(by the way I did that from memory.)

So I think my strengths will be steals and wins, with my overall pitching stats very good (except saves). Upgrades needed: another closer, perhaps another third baseman.

What do you think about the Sonics? I think it is good to have all these guys on the disabled list. Why? it will be like a new season for them when they get back. They take their time, heal all the bumps and bruises from the season, and be fresh for the playoffs. At least that is what I am making myself believe.

your team is probably the most boring team in america. be excited about rollins and barrett, you should be happy if you get 60 rbi and 40 extra base hits between the two of them.

The Sonics will be ready, did you see that 20+ loss to the Lake Show last night? No problem. Hey, anyone want some tickets...
