is barry's name really barry? or is that a handle dedicated to barry larkin?


My last name is manuel and my math teacher from 8th - 12th grade was a hardcore LSU baseball fan and sort of senile. So he kept calling my barry for the pitcher from Mamou Barry Manuel. After a couple years it sort of just stuck.

Barry, you better be dedicated as frick to take over his team - it's going to be 3+ years before you're relevant.



I'm actually looking forward to trying to turn it around. I'm in two other good keeper leagues so i can get my winning fix there. I'm pretty excited about trying to turn this thing around.

He'd be better off investing those picks on players that are a couple of years away from producing.



This is my plan. I know im 2-3 years away from sniffing the playoffs. This and some serious waiver wire watching.

I know less about baseball than anyone in this league and turned a pretty shitty team into a decent team in a year.

You can do it.


Start by trading me a pick for James Loney and James Shields.

This is my first year playing fantasy baseball and following baseball in general and I made the playoffs somehow. If you know what you're doing you should be able to compete.

Yeah, I'm just fricking around.
I'm pretty sure none of his draft picks changed hands.

this is why i recommend Toula. He at least knows the value of picks and such. Hopefully Barry can catch on if he is the choice
