The answer to your question after last night, Doc, is "yes"
What was the question, you ask? Here it is, from your post of September 5: "You think that Colin Kaeperncik has a little David Cassidy in him? :-)"

Wasn't too easy to find that post, Doc. although it rumbled around in my brain. I did a google search on - David Cassidy Kaepernick - and Google wanted to first make sure I really meant it. Yes, Google, I did mean it. Ok, then, it replied, and there you were, #1 on the search parade. (1 out of 1 - ain't the internet a beautiful thing?). Anyway, we all got pretty tired of the Cassidy Schtick quick.
Here's the line above the question, for context: "David Cassidy," quipped James. (If you just joined us, at like age 17 Cassidy wrote a couple of neat pop jingles for The Partridge Family, became a shooting star, but the world passed him by two years later, and he had nothing else in the tank.)
Like you, I have a guilty schadenfruedic pleasure of reading the niner blogs. Last night, the fans were in full mutiny, and David, er Colin had definitely worn out his welcome. It was delicious.
But, on to Ackley. In my roto keeper league, I have Ackley at $19 for the second season of a three year contract ($260 dollars, AL only). Pretty much leaning on keeping, but I'll watch spring training to confirm. Unfortunately, I can't put him at second base this season. Also tempted to throw him back into the auction pool and maybe paying a few dollars less but that tends to backfire on me. But I was about to release him for nothing in mid season, and had all kinds of banjo hitting second basemen I was leaning on using instead. He went on that slugfest, and grok it was, even remembering it now. It was flat out fun to watch, for sure.
Don't stop thinking about tomorrow, baby.
