Hi there. My name is Geoff, and I blog about baseball in general at Knuckle Curve, and about the Padres in particular at Ducksnorts.
My fantasy baseball experience is pretty varied, though it doesn’t occupy as much of my time these days as it once did. I first started with Rotisserie Baseball in 1984 (Lance Parrish, Damaso Garcia, Alan Trammell, Kirk Gibson, and a craptastic pitching staff led by the forgettable Ken Schrom), which I played through the early-’90s. Then I turned my focus to Scoresheet Baseball, which combines the benefits of Roto (using current season stats) and tabletop games such as Strat-O-Matic (simulation that more properly reflects value in the real game of baseball — no more worshipping of Vince Coleman and his 581 OPS in 1986).
This past season I played in seven Scoresheet leagues and won two of them. I also played in three Roto leagues, but I finished out of the money in all those — my mind has been forever warped by Scoresheet, which taught me to think like a big-league GM instead of an accountant.
