Man Tlance, looks like my team forgot how to hit this week! Hoping for a 1-0 win from either Feldman or Sheilds tonight.............that would help. Bummy is walking way too many dudes so far this year.

I picked Bumgarner ahead of King Felix in the expert league. Man does that look like a horrible decision right now. Biggest regret of the draft for me.

 

[Sam Sportboy]

Holy shit! I just made another trade.................
I give Bummy and the Italian Car (Frieri)
I get Braun and Solarte

I was really gonna try for Machado but pretty sure that wasn't gonna happen.............now I guess I better find a fucking pitcher.................

 

[Sam Sportboy]

So, not even thinking about this but so far this year I have traded:

Jim Johnson
Joey Bats
Allen Craig
John Lackey
Bummy
for
Braun
Wong
Kinsler
Wright
Solarte

Guess it remains to be seen if I win or not.............

Nice deal Sam... good luck with Braun, I truly hope he got 25/20 for you.
My arms just suck and Springer gave me an opening to deal on OF

I honestly thought you would tell me to go pound sand when I asked for Solarte too...........now, who do you want for Fister.................lol. Yeah, I'm hoping Braun can get back some of the pop I lost with Bautista and Solarte (finally) gives me somebody with a little versitility. I think we all know Bummy will find the strikezone again and be a stud. Hey Chef, I need an arm now.............

 

[Chef99]

Ah well, it looks like I'm playin' the hand I dealt myself. Sorry Sammy, no arms over here! :rollseyes:

let's not forget you did gain a 3B, and a pretty good one at that!

overall, kind of looks like you won Sam... if you like the hitters for pitchers approach... you certainly filled out your infield.

 

[Philabuster5]

Bogaerts bomb!

Bogaerts bomb!

And, it gives Lester the lead. Now lets keep it.

 

[TREFF]

I'd like to formally Thank the Yankees, who I still loathe with every fiber of my being, but thanks for shelling David Price and getting me back into the ERA/WHIP battle this week.
Sorry Fuzz!

 

[Sam Sportboy]

There you go TREFF, that took me exactly 3 seconds to accept. TBH, I was probably gonna drop him and I bet you were probably about to drop Mr. Pron-stache so it worked out. One shitty 3 bagger for a shitty arm. Fair deal.................lol.

Yes, if Cole Hammels returns next week as predicted. ."The 'Stach" was about to meet "the ax"!

Speaking of that. . Now that ax will be pointed towards Buerhle or Harang. Anyone wishing to snag one, or both, of those guys without fighting the waivers. . Now is the time!

 

[Sam Sportboy]

Shit, I now have 4 players that I had last year..............and I came in last. Hmmmm, maybe no more trading for awhile.

 

[Chef99]

Sigh...with a heavy heart, I have erased The Eraser.

 

[Chef99]

It's a bit ironic that with pitching supposedly so deep this year, everyone is looking for a pitcher, don'tcha think?

Trying to get rid of a couple. . Waiting on a taker. ..

 

[TKOSpikes]

I'd really love to turn Granderson and Homer into a nice OF upgrade. I know how most of you are so horny to deal top 20 OF's! lol

Fuzzy, I was thinking that Reed deal over... did you pull it back? (I don't think I hit reject... maybe I did!) ...hmm, maybe I had too many funny cigarrettes last night? Anywhoo... sorry for the delay.

 

[Sam Sportboy]

Good luck this weekend TLance! THE Sportsboys lead 5.5 to 4.5 but it's mostly smoke and mirrors......I'm one bad start away from getting my arse kicked. Sure could use a few of those HR's from the first 2 weeks...............at least most cats are close enough that it should be down to the wire (well, OBP is all but over).

I did pull the deal back. I just don't like letting a deal sit too long so I don't forget about it and get hurt by some subsequent event like an injury, etc. Go ahead and offer it if you are still interested.

 

[TKOSpikes]

Sounds good Fuzzy, I was really on the fence. I should have messaged you, but no worries, I'll go back to it if I go that way.

...and I wanted to add about my Homer + Grandy offer to all... I guess I'd take a safer ace if the OF thing doesn't suit your fancy.
