The Fantasy Baseball All-Patriotic Points League Team: Pitching
In my blog, Pathological Hate, I have mentioned my Head-to-Head Points fantasy baseball keeper league and I’m not ashamed to periodically update on the progress of my keeper team, although maybe I should stop updating because my team has been terrible despite being only a game below .500. But I’m not here to talk about my crummy […]
