As you might’ve noticed, the site was down for a few hours today thanks to some things that were beyond my control, but Derek and Ben at Bloguin got things back up quickly this afternoon, so thanks to them for the assist.
Anyways, I did a Pirate fantasy preview over at Razzball, so you should check that out. Also at Razzball, they’re holding a “worst fantasy team possible” contest. They’re hoping for a big response and, well, I figure Pirate fans know an awful lot about bad baseball players so I’m passing it along. There’s no cost to enter, but you could win a hot tub. Somehow, combining the worst fantasy players possible and a hot tub seems like a hilarious premise to me, so if you’re looking for a different sort of fantasy baseball experience this year keep them in mind.
If you missed it, Tony Sanchez homered in his first spring training at bat last night. And today, we get the baseball rarity that only happens in spring training; the tie!
And finally, since I assume that most Pirate fans already have at least a partial eye on the draft already, MLB Trade Rumors discusses the doubts about Bryce Harper. I know we’ve been over this here before, but it’s worth noting (again) that just because Harper is a great talent doesn’t mean he’s a slam dunk because no baseball prospect is. I saw one prospect guy (I can’t remember who, thanks to Twitter I read so many opinions anymore that I can’t keep them all straight) refer to him as both the most overrated and best prospect in the 2010 draft.
