Week 5 - The first week of inter-division match-ups for most: The schedule: Buckeye Nation (2-2) @ Evil Empire (1-3) Miko's Marauders (2-2) @ Romanian Yankees (2-2) Carolina Force (0-4) @ Larrupin' Lou's (0-4) Formal Ferrets (2-2) @ Judgement Day (2-2) The Lumberjacks (3-1) @ Planet Express (2-2) Mrs. Bill and Sluggo (2-2) @ HobokenSquatCobblers (3-1)

Ah, week 4. Nearly half the teams (9) have a record of 2-1. 6 Teams at the 1-2 mark. Do the math, that leaves 5 teams who are not a game above or a game below .500. 3 Teams look to get win 1 in Week 4. Which leaves just two teams hoping for the impossible dream of a perfect season. This upcoming week only one MLB game has been postponed so far. It could be a happy Patriot's day for the Powerplant this year. Here's who plays who for the upcoming week: Formal Ferrets (1-2)...

Blasts send the fabulous Mookie Betts to The Guys With Wood for Happ/Leake/Crawford. I look forward to all of your objections. Basically I'm looking for pitchers that don't throw up negatives every bloody week. If anyone wants JD Martinez please feel free to send over some offers.

GDN: Please put Michael Brantley on the DL. by RotoWire Staff (March 25, 2018 11:56 AM EDT) Indians manager Terry Francona said Sunday that Brantley (ankle) will open the season on the 10-day disabled list, Jordan Bastian of MLB.com reports. Francona stressed that Brantley hasn't suffered any setbacks with his surgically repaired right ankle during spring training, but the club isn't confident that the outfielder is ready to handle a "full load" just yet. Brantley will likely remain...

With their OF dropping like flies, the Ligers have given up hope that Matt Harvey can regain Super Hero status and have sent him packing to the Well Liked Evil Empire in exchange for Brett Gardner.

So many zeroes. No records. No on has stats. Baseball, though, is back. Hope for all. This year we welcome some old friends back. It's a blast to have the Blast here again, and we also welcome a great friend back to the league with a swinging new name. We now have a new pal, who is sure to strike back.

First order: who wants to be commish? Second: we need owners to return and be paid up so we can start off-season trading. Then we need a keeper deadline so we can process keepers and have everyone else available for the draft. Since the earliest draft date option we have is 3/17 (and I have an insane week leading up to that day), I say keeper deadline is March 13, 2018 That will give the commish 3-ish days to process keepers and correct errors That means we need a decent period for...

It's time to start thinking about our draft date. I've simply updated Big_E's spreadsheet from last year to reflect's this year's dates and EARLY opening day: March 29, which is a Thursday. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1g0dJ_F9lDCw8gdKXx_xJ3YI57AWNjwyYvZMBDR6yRc0/edit#gid=0 Ideally we'd like to get the mL draft done before opening day folks, and that usually takes a few days at least, so let's try and leave some gap between the ML draft and opening day.

The 2018 schedule is updated for the whole season. 23 weeks. Each team plays non-division teams once and division rivals twice. Please check your schedule and make sure this is so. Let me know of any errors.

Keepers have been inputted and rosters cleared. Contracts have been updated and rounds allotted. PLEASE CHECK TO MAKE SURE EVERYTHING IS CORRECT. I had to fix some round errors. Also, as Steve said, PUT EVERYONE ON YOUR MAJOR LEAGUE ROSTER ON THE BENCH. We don't want any issues at the time of the draft where you've left a player in spot where he no longer has eligibility and CBS forces you to draft that spot even when you don't think you have to.
