RotoCommunity acquired by RotoExperts

Dave Gawron — Tue, 02 Nov 2010 00:06:46 +0100

RotoExperts basically offers the same things we do, and I'll be doing much of the same things I do over there that I did here. The kicker is that I now have a staff of 37 to work with instead of a staff of seven. I have two masters of business operations out there making deals, and I'll be working in tandem with Scott Engel and a couple of other managers to help everything run smoothly.

I'll contribute my "Gawron's Grids" rankings, projections, cheat sheets, and schedule analysis to RoRead More...

5. Cody Ross

As we remarked here at RotoCommunity, the Giants evidently put in a waiver claim on Cody Ross with no intention of actually getting him, instead pre-empting the Padres from acquiring him for the stretch run. The Giants had no intention of paying for Ross, so when the claim fell to them they assumed the Marlins would caRead More...

5. Those Darn Umpires!!!

A bunch of iffy calls in the post season and towards the end of the regular season (on top of Jim Joyce's admitted error on Armando Galaragga's now one-hitter) have put the topic of umpiring on the hot list. The MLBPA has requested a meeting with representatives of MLB and the Umpires to hash out "communicatiRead More...
