Introducing the Colorado Tumbleweed 2013 Keepers

I'm sure this announcement will be of no surprise to any readers who read this post and were able to piece the code together. What I had been agonizing over for weeks, really boiled down to quite a simple decision. After following the numbers and the Colorado Tumbleweed have elected to keep the 3 players with the highest KV (Keeper Value) off of last year's roster.

Player                  Keeper Value
Stephen Strasburg       16.40737411
Bryce Harper            15.11660453
Troy Tulowitzki         13.94095904

Sure, there were several close 4ths, 5ths, and 6ths rounding out the top 10 players to choose from, but they'll just have to wait for draft day. It's hard to believe that the Colorado Tumbleweed are just a few short years removed from this gem, diamond in the rough if you will, of a keeper.

I recognize that something like this is very whimsical, but somehow it just makes me want to root against the Giants that much harder.

Giants RHP Brian Wilson recently had Tommy John surgery for the second time in his baseball career.

Surgery was perfect. Borrowed ligament from my ol' pal Sasquatch. Only side effects: hairy arm and I talk like a wookie bit.ly/JHg9lF

If this trend continues, Wilson might end up looking like this. Anyway, he sent out this thank you note to his friend:
