The Finalists: 4th Annual Fake Teams Best Fantasy Baseball Names Contest

This year I had to do more to make sure I choose the best of the FTBFBNC entries.  My wife and I reviewed them, but more was needed.  So it was off to see Paul Blart:  Mall Cop!

With all the previews for animated movies and commericals for Nickelodeon shows and products, I was gently reminded this is a family-friendly contest.  Out went the always-classic Pujols-inspired names.  Even the very topical one that combined the two best players in the game, Alex Rodriguez in New York and your previously-mentioned Pujols.

With my better angel having won, here are the finalists.  Please vote for the one consider the best.  The top three vote-getters will win a copy of Baseball Prospectus 2009: The Essential Guide to the 2009 Baseball Season.

Voting ends next Sunday morning. For those interested, here is a link to the entries.

It’ll probably be the only thing I win this baseball season. So I will appreciate it all the more. Thanks!

Has Anyone Seen My Haren?

Not quite the top finisher, but I can’t complain. Thanks to faketeams for the award and to all those who sent votes my way.

was going to go with another-

I was going to go with my favorite Rickey Henderson quote-
“I am glad to be an Angels”..would have been “glad to be an Angels”

Another was “The Big Eunuch” for how Randy Johnson has pitched for me the past few years. Was able to trade him for Aaron Harang last year which helped down the stretch some.

Naturally,

then the Unit kicked arse down the stretch, after you traded him…
