I can’t control my excitement. I know I should be realistic about what to expect but to hell with that. I’m giddy like a school girl. Saturday’s gonna be amazing!!!!

Just heard the news...

on ESPN, and promptly picked him up in all fantasy leagues. Trying to temper my excitement as well, but damn…I guess I’ll go against my good nature and be optimistic for once.

He’s actually not available in any of my deep leagues. Doesn’t THAT suck?

I drafted him in my league back in march and have been just biding my time, lol. It’s a keeper league, and my pitching staff includes Hanson, Yovani Gallardo, Rick Porcello, Joba Chamberlain, Edwin Jackson, Felix Hernandez, Max Scherzer, and Matt Cain. DIRTY!!

If thats a keeper league, you’re gonna have some tough decisions

I’m in a shallow league and as soon as I heard that Glavine was being released, I picked him up.

New DOB Post

Braves are trading three prospects to get him, but none of them are Hanson. Not sure who they are. Charlie wouldn’t surprise me. or Medlen. Or both.

You and me both.

I got invited to go down from NC with a friend on Monday and suggested the game on Saturday night. Lucky me.

Sucks his turn won’t come around during the Baltimore series.
