"There is a reason men buy fantasy baseball magazines that feature the works
of yours truly,"  chirped spring song bird and roto Atlas Jeffrey Winick,
"And it's not for the pictures, although I must admit in my case you
couldn't blame them. No, it's because of my insightful and forward-thinking
analysis, my crisply written essays and my bonus coupons.

"Of course I made a waiver claim on Doug Mientkiewicz...who wouldn't?  Look
at the numbers I compiled on this guy: he's at the optimal age of 32 years
with a birthplace of Toledo, Ohio.  He's on a team with a new GM and no one
close to taking away his first base job.  These all are positive signals
that point to a slight spike in his annual career average of 4 home runs.
Plus, tell me you love that .359 career batting average....ooops, that's his
on-base percentage.  Sorry, the last episode of Entourage is on and I'm too
distracted by all those Holloywood types.  That definitely is all for now.
Just remember that I'm a genius, okay?  Seriously, don't forget it."
