To repeat: the #1 rule of fantasy sports is that everyone’s team looks better than expected to them the day after the draft. And everyone else’s team is a bit disappointing. And it has to be that way, because people don’t agree with everything you think and vice versa.

So it was interesting to see Kevin’s brief analysis of our team. Seth and I think our team is going to be dynamite if, like the Giants, the starting pitching doesn’t suck. We have 14 starting players and the 15th, Col. Luis Gonzalez, is sure to get 350 AB’s. Kevin, I’m sure would say that we have 14 starters when they are not on the DL, which, given our start to the season, is a fair point. But despite 3 OF’s on the DL we’re near the top in the power categories. And although we’re tied for last in steals, we’re only 3 out of 3rd place.

At this stage, everyone is right. Everyone, that is, except the guy who kept Rich Aurilia. Our theory is that all 3 of those things happened to Ken, probably after receiving the phone call that he finally had a job. Ken, don’t mention that you kept Aurilia to Peter O’Malley when you hit him up for money. But feel free to invite him to our poker game.

P.S. The Pounders aren't in first anymore. That was a pretty bad day they had Tuesday. From first to fifth, and suddenly behind...the Pecklers? Just remember, if you're not the lead dog, the view is always the same.
