Dear Mr. Schmidt:
Remember me?
I wrote to you after your last start, thanking you for the great game you pitched, and telling you how much it helped me in the Fantasy League I'm in.
Well, I have you on my team again tonight, and the thing is, everyone else in the league took that guy on Toronto, Hallady.
The way our league works is, there's a salary cap, so you don't want to necessarily pick the best pitcher each day, you want the best value.
You cost me 6.0 against my cap, while Hallady only cost 4.1. That means my opponents had an extra 1.9 to spend on their offensive players.
I was thisclose to taking him also, but I decided to remain loyal to a guy who did so much for me last week. So I'm asking for a really great game again, like maybe a 2 or 3 hit shutout with 10 or 12 strikeouts.
By the way, did I mention that I'm a quadraplegic, confined to a wheelchair, typing this by sticking a pencil in my mouth, whose only joy in life is from fantasy baseball?
