Ah, spring truly is in the air...Baseball Amaerica's 2007 almanac is out, as
is my favorite, the Sporting News Baseball Register...but look! over
there...next to Maxim and FHM: *The Fantasy Baseball Guide--2007 Professional
Edition!!*

And there he is, right there on page 4, the hardest working man in roto, a
man who has played roto baseball "in an average of three leagues per year
since 1988 and has averaged better than one victory per year [Ed. note: who
audits this stuff anyway?]...recently in numerous expert leagues and has won
XFL in 2004 and 2006...an avid sabermetrician since about 1990..." the one
and only... *JEFF WINICK!!!*
**
*SEE *Jeffrey's handsome mug (actually, the same as last year's, and frankly
only somewhat more sober looking than Rip Torn's mug shot) !!

*READ *Jeffrey's breathless accolades about Boof Bonser (Rip/$9/yr1): "Mr.
Bonser has breakout written all over him. Upside is 15 wins and 150+
strikeouts" (sheesh, Jeff, you really weren't pulling my chain when you told
me I got a great deal from Andy, for once in my life) and his many other
PICKS!!

*CHUCKLE *at Jeffrey's Blocker-like wit in his PANS: (on Delmon Young:
"Remind yourself that he THREW a bat at an umpire and take a look at his
brother's career..." [Emphasis in original.]

*PONDER *the thoughtful essay, entitled "Live For Today, This Year" (c)
Winick Enterprises, in which Jeffrey espouses his winner-take-all-from Brad
Lee philosophy:   "...I threw caution to the wind and engaged in an
aggressive campaign to trade future potential for immediate impact..."

Available at Barnes & Noble...NOW!!!!!
