Fantasy Baseball Roundtable: Aggravations Print E-mail
Written by Jason Collette   
Friday, 06 June 2008

This week Mike Muschiano of the Poughkeepsie Journal had the pleasure of hosting the fantasy roundtable discussion. The topic? Well simply put, a lot of things irritate the crap out of him in fantasy baseball. Like when your pitcher gets a hit but it doesn’t count for anything. Or ever better, when that same pitcher hurts himself legging out a double (i.e. Micah Owings). The question he posed to the panel this week:

What are three things that aggravate you the most as a fantasy baseball manager?
