When I complained to the rest of the league, one guy suggested it was to prevent Kemp from coming up in these situations because he always strikes out.

Here’s hoping he was right, and that Holliday homers (he’s on my team too).

I was sitting in front of a kid and his dad. The kid hated Motte. And loved Rasmus. The dad hated Rasmus and for some reason thought that he was 27. He also was surprised when his son told him Colby plays good Defense.

The dad was convinced we were sending in Motte to show case him so we could package him and Rasmus for Halladay.
