How does my fantasy team rate now, updated?

Do not use oil to break in the glove now...it is too close to the season. No matter how much you work to get the excess oil out, it will ruin the baseballs that you catch. This close to the season, simply play catch with the glove. When the glove is not in use, place a baseball into the glove where you want the pocket to form. Wrap a belt, string, or bungy cord tightly around the glove, holding the ball in place.

After the season, use Neet's Foot Oil as a leather preservative. Apply the oil with your bare hands as the friction from your skin will help get the oil into the pores of the leather. The oil is best used as a preservative/protectant during the drier air of winter time. I have taken care of my gloves this way and they are both over 30 years old.

What about the brewers?

Yes. Many young kid from poor countries, who don't have the means to buy baseball oil, they used cooking oil.

What is the most discraceful franchise in baseball over the last 20 years?

You could, though using glove oil would be better. I always used mineral oil, so that's another option.
