My team has trouble with the longball - we don't hit enough, and we give up too many. Which is weird, because I've got sluggers; they're just not slugging. Stanton is hitting them, sort of, but Kris Bryant and Josh Bell aren't.

Yeah, I feel like that was different in previous years. Lots less spent on draft day this year. My team is a disaster. I can't get any traction at all.
"I love the Mets organization; they've treated me great," he said. "They're always lifting us up." "It's like they have *so* much experience sending people for medical treatment. No place I'd rather be."

My team was all over the place this year, and I made bad lineup decisions because I wasn't on top of it every day. I left a ton of points on the table that could have put me into second place. I'm back in for next year, and I don't want to make a massive financial investment, but a fun $20 buy-in or something is doable.
Not too many for me: Citi Field Citizens Bank Park Marlins Park Miller Park Nationals Park Fenway Park Whatever The White Sox Stadium Is Called Now tour, but no game: Wrigley Field plus: Shea Stadium Old Yankee Stadium Olympic Stadium The Vet
Ooh, I love Vic's list each year. Movies I saw, in vague-ish order of preference: ZOOTOPIA ROGUE ONE: A STAR WARS STORY GHOSTBUSTERS FANTASTIC BEASTS AND WHERE TO FIND THEM THE SECRET LIFE OF PETS MOANA CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR SING
