I'm sure the predictions that I've already made will make me look like an idiot by the end of the year, so I might as well go all the way and give you my postseason picks.

Rule 5
Yesterday, during the Scrappy draft, a few of us in the Madison contingent were discussing the Rule 5 draft and the thought continued for me as I watch the Phillies and Braves, two clubs with Rule 5'ers in the starting lineup and expected to make big contributions.

Charlie Sheen Announces Baseball Comeback (Forgot He Never Actually Played in the MLB)
Charlie Sheen, having recently lost his regular gig on 'Two and a Half Men" has decided that the best use of his Tiger Blood and Adonis DNA is on the pitching mound. Citing the longevity of Jaime Moyer and former Indians 'teammate' Julio Franco, as well as the fact that he hasn't pitched since 1994, Sheen believes that he has plenty left in the tank to offer prospective major league suitors. Although no reporters have had the opportunity to observe any of Sheen's bullpen sessions, his Terminator is said to have some nice zip and his Eliminator and Humiliator are showing good movement. Scrappy owner Greg Wiener is reported to be very interested in adding Sheen to his roster as soon as he becomes available.
Adam Malka, Dog Whisperer
In what is being touted as a stunning development in human-canine relations, Ph.D. candidate and Fantasy Baseball savant, Adam Malka, has made a fantastic breakthrough. After finding a ball sometime between drafting Derrick Lee and taking his laptop into the forbidden zone, Mr. Malka discovered that dogs like balls. In a tragic and, unfortunately un-pictured follow up, the dogs found Mr. Malka's 'other' balls.
Luke Scott still available, Scrappy Birthers Lining Up On Waiver Wire
Despite a stellar spring training and tremendous upside and versatility, Luke Scott went undrafted in the recent Scrappy Nation 2011 Draft. As word of his availability spread throughout the league, Scrappy Birthers have been busy putting in waiver requests to the commissioner's office. In other news, Donald Trump may or may not have been Greg's super proxy, better known as Nutso.
It's Back!
In celebration of a new year of Scrappy (and the free time that I have to contribute), I'm bringing back the Scrappy Nation blog. Keep posting to the league message board, but if you need a little more space to get your point across, this is the place to do it. I hope we have a little more success with the blog this time around.
Keep it Scrappy
