Small Ball: Fantasy Baseball Game Theory (Week 17)
In a world where nothing is what it seems, there’s no one less surprised than me. Morgan Wallen, anyone? I just quoted one of his songs. Well, almost. I changed one word. The song is “More Surprised Than Me.”   I was listening to it on one of my afternoon walks around Lake Takanassee in beautiful Long […]

Small Ball: Fantasy Baseball Game Theory (Week 15)
“TRADEEEEEE.” That’s the exact text I got from the commissioner of my home fantasy baseball league back in 2015 when the season really started to heat up.    Our league had been together for five years – and I’ll be honest, it was a bit of a cesspool those first five years. But things were […]
