Bonds Chase Begins

Barry Bonds smacked one out of the park today. Actually, about 5 minutes ago...Now Thats Good Content! The 42 year old will break Aaron's record unless he has a career ending injury...#735 went to deep center. He needs 21 to pass Aaron and as many people don't want him to do it, I'm sorry HE WILL! In the future however, I truly believe that people will see it as two different records: The Pre-Steroid Era record and the Steroid Era record. When Bonds breaks the record it will be a huge deal but it won't be long lived...A-Rod isn't far behind him and then Pujols will probably break it after that so don't fret...Bonds won't have it for long.

MLB signs deal to keep "Extra Innings" on Cable TV

My cell phone just alerted me that the MLB has signed a 7 year deal to keep the Extra Innings package on Cable TV. It's not exactly fantasy news but it is certainly news worthy and many people should be happy with this. You have no idea how many emails I got complaining about this. Anyway, thats all I got.

Quick Tip

I haven't posted much recently but the season has gotten underway. I have a quick little tip for all of you: Don't Worry! If your players aren't performing as you would like, don't panic. Don't drop your guys and add someone until you've given them a fair chance. A great example of this is Chris Carpenter. Carpenter had a less than good first start but that doesn't mean he is going to struggle. On the same note, just because a player has one good game doesn't mean they are going to break out. Give the guy a chance to prove some consistancy before you add him.

That's all I have for you for now. I'll update you as players impress or dissapoint. Just because the season has started doesn't mean you stop doing research! That is one philosophy I talk about in my article over at sportsblurb (out tomorrow). If you haven't gotten the Xtra Innings package to read that article I suggest you do. There is some other great content over there including an article by The Fantasy Man.
