4th Place

Stimulated Package: Hal??? Really.....JR's dad??? He finished in 4th place? Only one spot out of the money? I think we'll all have to take our caps off to the guy, as we bow our heads in silence and mourn the league and the disappointment we have cast on the Fantasy Gods. It appears that Hal traded in his Hot Rod Weekly for a Fantasy Mag and reaped the benefits. Mr. Johnson accumulated quite a powerhouse of keepers after his sidekick handed him Albert Pujols on draft day a few years ago. He'll have a very difficult decision on which 3 to keep out of Pujols, A-Rod, Teixeira, Mauer and possibly Cliff Lee. Unlike the days leading up to his high school Sadie Hawkin's Dance, Hal should be receiving some calls for the services of one of these fantasy titans. Although the pieces are in place, he still has to draft so we can expect this team to balance out very quickly. Come April, not only will Hal have the privilege of walking JR down the aisle, but he'll have his shot to prove that last year wasn't just a 'one hit wonder'.
