Good thing I read the recap before responding. Last check yesterday I was losing and was about to congratulate Big D. Good game and good luck Paul. I've had good luck using the team bullpen strategy in the past, never in a weekly format but success none the less.

Anyone in the need of an outfielder or starting pitcher? Looking for a CI, 1B is fine but 3B would be Preferable. Offers of a MI player would also be welcome but not what I really looking for.

Since Josh Harrison is eligible at 2B, 3B and OF, that makes him worth as much as Kershaw, right?

It's really nice seeing a 5-5 score

 

[Yellow Fuzzies]

So far my last minute pickup and insertion into the lineup or Plouffe seems to be working out!!!

Still a great write up Tlance.

Nice write up Tlance! Can't seem to get consistency out of this team. Either lose big, or win big. The loss of Fernandez doesn't help, and facing the save punters back to back is forcing some questionable pitchers into action in an effort to compete for K's and W's

What really sucks is when you face one of those guys and can't even get one lousy save.

Hmm...Ventura was my lone shining star remaining.

Zimmerman's thumb:

We have clearance!

We have clearance!

Now pull it out of your ass and start playing some ball, ok Sparky?

 

[Chef99]

Can anyone explain to me what Mattingly is doing with Kemp?

Cutting through all the rhetoric (defensive liability, blah blah), doesn't this seem to look a little personal?

 

[DUB]

solid write up.... drumming of DUB is correct.

Losing is getting way toooooooooooooooo OLD!

Me thinks someone wants Kemp gone and Joc up.

Sucks losing Ventura. Hope he can make his next start, otherwise you're gonna need a miracle to get your innings in this week.

 

[BigDDude]

Big week for me against Big D...................be nice if Buster Hymen, oops I mean Posey would start hitting......................good luck D!

Back at you Sam. Good luck to you as well.

 

[Sam Sportboy]

Back at you Sam. Good luck to you as well.

Thanks D. You know you're doomed when you actually have 2 good/decent starts and both pens blow it for your guys............. fortunately there is still a lot of BB to be played.

Went over to Half Price Books and picked up "Fantasy Life" by Matthew Berry and "The All-Time Biggest Sports Jerks" by Michael Freeman.

I believe I'll be spending some time reading this evening...and checking in on our Suicide League, of course.

He's sitting again today. That makes five days straight. You may be right, but will benching him make his trade value any better?

And everyone, including the media, seems to be very quiet about the whole thing...curiouser and curiouser.

 

[Ram Tough]

Cargo left the game early again tonight!!!! Love his talent but wow he has got to be one of the most injury prone players in the game today.. He either can't play thru pain or cant catch a break!!! Thank God for George Springer's hot streak

 

[Chef99]

Best line I read on a baseball site this morning: Yu Darvish should learn that a Hello Kitty pillow is for adornment, not sleeping on.

 

[Chef99]

Tim Hudson pitching like a freakin' All-Star. Who'da thunk it?

 

[Philabuster5]

Chef: you keep sending good offers.
I'm getting gun shy since every time I make a trade someone gets hurt haha.
I will get back to you today!!! Just need to think and wipe these cold sweats.
