When it comes to knowledge of baseball, you are a legend in your own mind. However, when you put your baseball knowledge on the line in fantasy baseball, not so much.

The Pirates have played the Reds 10 times and won 1 of them. I wonder if they'll win another.

50 games to go.



The pirates are 1.5 games up on Baltimore and Texas, 6 games up on Arizona. Those dirty O’s , Rangers and Snakes - not doubt they are tanking!!

When I was a boy, I hated the Reds with all my might.



It's turned to respect for them and sadness for us.



This is what baseball in Pittsburgh sadly has become.

the Pirates are 3-7 in the final 60. Will they finish better, worse, or the same as last year's 19-41?

Have a great time with your unicorn posters picking that fantasy team!

We won't know whether this is a "problem" or not. But, like most other industries, sports is very much a copy-cat thing.



Maybe a dozen clubs will go for it. The rest will cut bait and attempt to regroup (as we've been doing and was done by several teams in recent years.)



When so many competitors go about business the same way, it's like the rest of baseball- a matter of who's the most successful at the same processes.
