RR Fantasy Baseball Keeper League: Year 2

Thank you NY for reminding me about the Keeper League.  I bought a cabin in Minnesota and have been very busy with it.  It is a great place but a lot of work needed to be done.  It will give me the chance to spend  lots of time with the kids and grandkids.  So, I am a happy old cogger... 

The league decided that each team would keep (6) players for next season.  Please list your team name and then the six players, their position, and their pro. team.  The draft will be in March of 2009.  Any players not held or on orphan teams will be eligible for the draft.  New teams will get six more rounds to pick their squads.  We will stay with the 16 team format any other changes will be made just prior to the draft.

Questions, comments, or bright remarks... make them now before the fat guy starts his rounds.

i was in minnesota last week… just curious, how remote is your cabin?

It is on Leech Lake...

a short loon’s flight from Walker, Mn. It is about three hours north of the Twin Cities.

something about the name of that lake has always kept me from wanting to swim in it

I'm in two already and don't know if my ego

would stand up to finishing either last or next to last in yet another baseball league. I am in first in a football league I’m in.

Grudz, great to hear about your cabin. My favorite vacation image. Me, my wife and my dog in a cabin. Snow all around. Plenty of firewood. No TV, no internet, no phone. Surprisingly my wife’s favorite vacation image is entirely the opposite.

I think your team needs another slow, defensively-challenged masher or two
