The Daily Grind: Monster Strength

Sometimes, I like to read the bad advices. I feel slightly bad for calling out a fellow writer, but this is one of the top three articles to appear when you search Shohei Otani. That means a ton of people are reading it, and it’s hilariously misinformed. The fourth paragraph in particular is almost entirely incorrect. And it happens to be the crux of the article.

Brad Johnson Baseball Chat: 9/19/2017

3:59
Brad Johnson: Good afternoon folks. Let’s save keeper questions for the offseason and focus on the remainder of the season.

3:59
JD15: How many points can I realistically make up in the last two weeks of FGPts if my competitor and I both have innings and games to use?

4:00
Brad Johnson: A superb week is something like 1,200 points – 700 for hitters and 500 for pitchers
