I was wholly prepared to write my team's obituary this week. After two frustratingly, mediocre weeks against Evan and Hunter which ended in two ties, I thought my season had ended. I began to entertain offers for my Aces ready to look forward to next year. Yet by the grace of the Fantasy Gods, my … Continue reading Tri-Weekly Roundup 7/15-8/4

The Women of the Gauntlet
With the Gauntlet being 362/365 days out of the year, there is no escape. For the players, it means a grueling schedule with no mental breaks. The Gauntlet consumes our time and attention. The Gauntlet, however, not only affects us. From the infinite drafts to the date interrupting barrage of texts, we often neglect our … Continue reading The Women of the Gauntlet
Bi-Weekly Roundup 6/24-7/13
After a two week holiday break, we're back to cover the last two matchups. With the All-Star break in our rearview mirror, we get to enjoy about 365 straight days of the Gauntlet.

Weekly Roundup 6/17-6/23
Trade Talk Last week was a ridiculous trading week with $73 of next year's money swapping hands and $10 of this year's.

Weekly Roundup 6/10 – 6/16
To begin this weekly roundup, I have a few apologies to make. Last week I wrote that "I will NEVER consider Ketel Marte a big name." Ketel Marte must be an avid Gauntlet Blog reader; last week Marte went 13/29 with 5 HR and an 11 Runs. Ketel Marte I apologize, you ARE a big … Continue reading Weekly Roundup 6/10 – 6/16
The Gauntlet’s Madman
It's 5:18 AM and Evan Clay wakes up in a cold sweat and frantically checks his phone. He breathes a sigh of relief, and mutters, "I got him" to himself. Reenactment of Evan Clay waking up in a cold sweat. What woke Evan does not wake ordinary people, he woke to ensure Robinson Chirinos was … Continue reading The Gauntlet’s Madman
