I‘m pretty ok with the idea of abusing power, as long as I’m on the abusing end. Actually, only if I’m on the abusing end. Here’s my pitch:
I am going to play in a 100% public Yahoo Fantasy Baseball league. Every day or so I’ll write a quick blurb about my stats, my team, and my plans. Let’s chat strategy, teams, defense, and anything else that comes to mind. Please, I encourage you to comment. Tell me how dumb I am or what I should do differently. Let’s really mix things up. (This is where the abuse of power thing comes in. Me playing + all of you helping me should lend an unbelievable advantage)
My first comments will revolve around our 2009 Sleeper Pick for 3rd Base, Ryan Zimmerman. His day was, well, less than stellar. 0/4 is not the ideal way to start the season, especially since your team suffered a brutal 12-6 loss to the Florida Marlins.
So the Marlins made Zimm upset, but me happy – I also played Ricky Nolasco. 6 strikeouts in 6 innings for the win, not bad.
The question then becomes – was it wise playing both sides of tonights equation?
Current standings: 3rd of 12 with 77 points (4 points behind first place).
