I'm going to try to vibe-code an html page that will keep track of every player taken and every team's roster during the auction in a 25-team fantasy league. I spent 10 minutes on it a week ago and I was blown away by the first output.

Highly recommend "Stupid TV, Be More Funny," which is a great book about what you just said, except about The Simpsons.

No, no, you misheard me, I’m in the Eckstein Files, a list of people who have succeeded despite lacking the physical attributes because of hard work, intelligence, and grit.

I've asked my AI agent to click on your piece repeatedly until Craig or Patrick fixes the issue

Good morning. The must recent Megdal piece is suffering from the bug where it prompts you to log in even after you're logged in.

Weird glitch: the Auction Calculator will load projections for pitchers but not hitters.

Harper has the "fame" part locked up. And he arrived in MLB so young that his career stats will be enough to merit induction.

We don't know all the details, of course. But if this is about money, it's sad that the team happily paying the Steve Cohen tax to employ Juan Soto and friends won't open the purse for the best director in sports TV.

It's for Mega Man's family only.

For a team spending like Mets will spend in 2026, they sure are hoping for positive variance.

Aside from Lindor and Soto, every hitter projects with giant error bars on both sides. Same with pitchers beyond Peralta.

So many guys who have been hurt or plain ineffective -- but have also dominated.

LH hitting left fielder would fit Batt too.

No shock that Mets traded AcuΓ±a and Jett Williams -- two undersized infielders -- after committing to Semien and Bichette. Now sign MJ MelΓ©ndez to stand in LF and split time with Taylor until Benge proves himself in triple-A, and the off-season will be complete.

Forget Risk. I'd be surprised if potus knows how to play Battleship.

20.01.2026 22:31 πŸ‘ 1 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 1 πŸ“Œ 0

Yes exactly. Fans rightly expect another big transaction. Please stand by ;)

I wonder how much of the Bichette signing is the FO pacifying fans who are upset at the Pete, Nimmo, DΓ­az, McNeil transactions. Trade leverage takes a back seat to optics.

Still plenty of time to address the outfield.

Tough to carry a utility infielder who can't play short? Also, this is your top prospect. He was decent last year. Let him play? Idk

Teams with better infields than the Cubs' *before* they signed Alex Bregman?

The Orioles, now with Pete.

Maybe the Dodgers, if you're not concerned about aging curves?

Galaxy Brain move by the Cubs to make their infield so good that they have no leverage when trying to move Nico Hoerner.

@euqubud.baseballprospectus.com @cdgoldstein.baseballprospectus.com Yesterday's Megdal piece isn't displaying properly on the site. It says you need to log in, but when you click to log in it says you're already logged in.

Yes, and the regret from cheaping out can be worse.
