I remember him!

 

Dunston at SS

Sandberg at 2nd

Grace at 1st

Girardi was the catcher?

I think that's right.

Steve Buechele was always that guy on the verge of a breakout. Solid third baseman, looked like he was gonna have an All Star quality season or two. But a long and successful career nonetheless.

Can that former MLBer play MLB?  Asking for an unnamed GM...🤔

Covered a lot of ground at 3rd, so I'm sure he could pursue all day long and then not tackle. We're used to that.

WGN with Harry Carray and Steve Stone was my childhood.

From what I read, he was having a very good preseason, which doesn’t mean much considering he was playing with backups against backups.  BUT Kyle Allen was I a. Similar situation and didn’t look so great…so who knows?

 

I think the KC intel angle is somewhat overplayed.

1992!?!?!  You were an early adopter.  How did everyone compile the stats?

"Rotisserie League." Actually still the best way of doing it. Rated on your rank in the league on batting average (yeah, sucky real world stat, but it was easy to get every week in the USA Today), HR, RBI, SBs. And then Wins, Strikeouts, ERA, Saves. Despite the crude "counting stats" by today's analytical era, the winners generally reflected what worked in real-world baseball. Good fun.

But the fool who said "Steve Buechele is ready to break out this season" never won it.

I won't hold it against him that his dad, former MLB third baseman, is the primary reason I didn't win my fantasy league in 1992.

He also played baseball at Stanford with Elway.  
 

I just hope that somehow, getting Shane from the Chiefs weakens them just a little bit. Maybe he was Mahomes security blanket.
