Game Thread: April 30, Phailies at Braves

Philadelphia is actually playing pretty well now, and has caught Florida in the standings. Luckily, we miss Moyer, who's been their best pitcher.

I would have a game thread video here but all I can think of is John Denver, and I'm not going there.

Game Thread: April 25, Braves at Marlins

As I've mentioned I'm in an APBA keeper league. It's pretty deep, 20 teams, 40-man rosters. Anyway, I usually lose so in last year's draft I decided that I'd just take Braves because if I'm going to lose I might as well lose with players I'm rooting for. I took McCann with the ninth pick in the first round and also took KJ and McBride.

So it actually worked out pretty well and my team is suddenly a contender, so I went back to my "when in doubt, pick a Brave" strategy this year. Only this time I wound up with Paronto and Kali. Hm.

Langernote: In case you didn't know, Baseball-Reference is updating during the season now. Here's the Braves page. Note that Langerhans has an OPS+ of negative thirty. Sweet Jesus.

No video today, slow connection.

No news on the new site front. I'm hoping to have something in the next couple of days. Meanwhile, if you just hate Blogger, I can set up a new auxiliary backup at WordPress.com, which would at least have the familiar settings.

Today's Game Thread Video is dedicated to Ryan Langerhans' extra base hit total, because it doesn't exist either! Sorry, I'm on a slow connection here.

You may notice the Amazon tip jar posted to in the sidebar. In case you didn't, here it is again:






I feel a little awkward asking for money, but the move to the new host is going to cost a little bit of cash (I'm not sure how much, not too much) and I'm pretty much hand-to-mouth. I am hoping to start putting up my own ads soon, which will hopefully make the site self-supporting, but I'm looking for a little startup money.

I don't want to guilt-trip anyone; I'm just looking for a little money, and if it's not doable, that's fine.

Also, I know there are a few of you who have your own blogs; I am looking for a Blogads sponsor, because I think that will probably be better than going with Google.

Today's Game Thread Video is dedicated to -- you guessed it -- Ryan Langerhans! He must be destroyed!

Okay, here's what I think is going to happen. I have no contact information at Braves.net anymore; the guy currently in charge has never contacted me. I'm going to be moving the site to a new service ASAP; I have a couple of possibilities. At any rate, it will be on WordPress still and I have everything archived through a week ago today. I probably won't be able to save anything after that except the posts. Everyone may or may not have to re-register; I've never done this before.

Anyway, we're going to be on Blogspot for the next few days.
