Does this fantasy rules oddity need review? I have 5 players who qualify at 2B, yet none have played an inning there this year - Polanco, Gorman, Rafaela, Schmitt, Tawa.

Fantasy Baseball Fixers, Listener League ADP & Catching Up w/Ron Shandler (Full Episode) YouTube video by Rates & Barrels

One of my favorite interviews this spring. DVR and Eno were great to talk with, and I got to share lots of info on all the pies I have my fingers in. (My segment starts at the 1:02 mark) www.youtube.com/watch?v=wQkF...

Always special to spend time with DVR and Eno.

Here is a reprint of a vitally important column I wrote about 9 years ago. I decided to pull out this old chestnut because I've been having a hankering for a 20-point dog. ronshandler.com/the-hot-dog-...

Deep diving into rules solutions tomorrow night at 8:30pm ET.

All good. I’m not going anywhere.

Certainly. Sounds interesting.

- The Legacy Program finally discloses the known facts about UAPs so we can get on with discovering the real truth about life, the universe, and everything.
- All redactions are removed and publicized, congressional spines fortified, and dominoes fall as they may.
- 20 pounds go pffft.
That's all.

- No flight delays for my trips in January, March, May, June, August and November. The airlines can screw up all the other months.
- A.I. does not replace me. Would appreciate at least 5 years on that one.
- No deaths or serious health issues for anyone within two degrees of separation from me.2/x

HAPPY NEW YEAR, FRIENDS.
Here are my personal hopes for 2026 (in no particular order)...
- After this week, no sub-50 degree days in Florida.
- Mets sign Framber Valdez and Cody Bellinger; trade Mark Vientos, Jonah Tong & two prospects for Nick Pivetta and Mason Miller. That would be enough. 1/x
