Should I pick up Eli for this start? Was last week a fluke? I need non homer realistic dirt to answer, not the guy that's usually here. The answer to one of those questions is yes.

Eli shouldn't be available , if he is , get it done Not only the awful Falcons defense, he has a buncha really nice matchups coming up They are obviously feeling more comfortable with the offense. This didn't start last week, it started against Houston Eli did this a few years ago where he was a big time fantasy difference. It's happening again

seriously NEVER give a pitcher more than 5 years, or you're a horrible GM doesnt matter to a big market team. if you are the royals, a's or any other financially responsible team, it makes no sense teams like the red sox, fraudkees, tigers, dodgers, who dont give a fuck about being smart with money can get away with it. they'll just trade him, and eat the money

Verlander got his deal at 30 years old I believe. Far too many years and there was no need to do it. Fuck extensions

Yup.....if you dont develop them, and then early sign them long term(Sale).......you dont get one and keep him long term, unless you way overpay for him(Verlander). But you need them, so you just have to suck it up and realize that in a 5 year deal, 2 or 3 years will be flushing money down the toilet.

Yanks probably cant move CC. its not the money - its the years for these teams

I just really hate Markakis so much. He might be the most boring pro athlete ever. He makes Harold Baines look like one of hte 86 Mets.
