My Fantasy Team - Your Nightmare
Just a warning to all those baseball fans out there. I have now finalized the roster on my fantasy baseball team and knowing how snake-bitten I am when it comes to predicting sports, you can expect nothing but bad things from these players this year.
Scan the sports wire for hamstring injuries, arrests, DUI’s, spousal abuse, drugs, bench-clearing brawl suspensions, hang nails and any other negative thing that could keep these players from producing this season. You better hope your team trades the players that I have on my Fantasy Team.
For a while I was honestly thinking of picking nothing but Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees players to guarantee myself no heartache this season. But alas, this is my team.

trade someone for V. Martinez. I have Piazza… he can’t fail this season. we need that guys bat. take one for the team, literally.
Wade Miller is going to be missing the first month of the season, at the very least.
Hope you have a DL in your league.
As the previous poster mentioned, Wade Miller is going to be DL’d for some time. Kerry Wood’s elbow has been balky too. I’d stock up on some starters since it looks like Tim Hudson will be your only guy not on the DL.
