Used to love David Youngs pitching columns on TMR.

Just found him on SI - you guys probaly know this - but I rarely go there.

But this line is just hilarious.


The answer: Contreras, Floyd, and Indiana Jones. The question? Name three men returning this summer with huge WHIPs. Stay away from the two that have not visited the Well of Souls.

Good article though - some sound advise as usual.

Pretty funny. I have yet to check out ESPN this year, but will probably take a look before my draft this weekend to see if there's anything worthwhile.

Mr Snappy takes on the NL:

Is DY on the payroll at SI? His byline says "Special to SI.com". So is he employed elsewhere? TWW wouldn't lend his articles to SI right?

Am I the only one that hates SI's setup for fantasy news? I find it so damn confusing!

Hey Guys,

Yeah, I'm writing for SI now. Had my differences with the WWL. Just wasn't a good fit. Got tired of "Me Likey" being the extent of their analysis.

I agree with the comment that SI's interface is user hostile. They bought a site and put the fantasy stuff on it, which removes it from the whole site entirely. However, I'll try to make it a place more people go (with your help spreading the word, of course).

Good to see you guys. I'll try to chek in from time to time.

D.

PS. Friggin' Pedro pops his hammy mere hours after my column went up (and my pitching staff went down).

Hey DY!

GREAT to hear from you! We'll keep looking for your work over at SI.com.

Feel free to hang here anytime!

Hey Dave
Keep up the good work. Any sneaky tips just for us gladly accepted!

The UK Version of the John Danks fan club is all set for tommorrows game!

DY, love your stuff.

Yes, ESPN fantasy is so dumbed down I find it hard swallow. Karabel offers some good insight but the rest is blabber. And has anyone noticed how little Matthew Berry contributes these days?

Yes, SI needs a website revamp. The content is pretty good and even more so when its free.

i don't bother reading tmr - he comes across as an a** hole now - all his ex staff are great though - brad is good over on yahoo too but pitching knowledge wins leagues - hence Dave is the man - bar the recommendation two years ago to get Jason Marquis!

wait a minute, mr. snappy got me in trouble one time for laughing out loud at work. something about a fat woman and the flight of the valkyrie, i think.

Good to see some oldies coming around here! Hope you come by often David!

Mr Snappy returns!

Perfect Pitch

SI.com is having trouble getting their fantasy content organized (must be all those extra swimsuit editions lying around), but DY appears to be back in business!
