Sammy, sent you an offer.

I've also got an offer for TKO, depending on what Sammy thinks. A relatively minor one, though. Donaldson and Wright are now too rich for my blood.

 

[TREFF]

Holt blockbuster Batman! And of course you're taking your new car for a test drive the week you play me! Regardless, good luck to ya this week, Chef

12. Dub: 47-82-11

Weekly Recap:

Tlance 8, Sam 2- This was a tough one for Sam. Most of the categories were close, but the Salamis did just enough to pull away on Sunday. Tlance rebounds from last week's destruction and Sam falls further out of the playoff race. He is now 7 games back from 6th place Chef.

Kevin 7, Big D 3- Big D was the victim of Kevin's awesome hitting week. D has a great pitching week led by Timmay, but Kevin's 28 more innings were too much to overcome in both Ks and wins. Big D is still sitting comfortably in 5th and Kevin will look to get back in the hunt with more impressive weeks like this one.

Fuzzy 6.5, Treff 3.5- Hitting was very close, but the Fuzzies dominated the pitching cats. Fuzz was able to overtake Treff in the standings with this result, but both teams are still looking very good. Fuzzy is now in third and Treff is 4th.

Jim 6, Dub 4- A solid hitting week along with huge K totals from Burnett and Miley allowed Dub to keep things close, but Jim's squad was too much in the end. Jim is staring to build a nice cushion between him and the third place team. Keep in mind, the second place team gets a bye in the first round of the playoffs.

Paul 5.5, Ram 4.5- Paul had an awesome pitching week and he got just enough from his hitters to get the win. While the victory is nice, he is going to need to start getting some more lopsided results to climb back into the hunt. Ram, on the other hand, remains in a tie for 7th with TKO as they each dropped a game in the standings to Chef.

Chef 5.5, TKO 4.5- This game was extremely close, but a late rally from TKO narrowed the result a little. Chef's bats did just enough to hold on. This matchup was a lost opportunity for TKO to gain ground on the final playoff spot. He will look to use newly acquired Paul Goldschmidt to beat down first place Tlance this week.

Prospect League recap coming soon!

Nice write up T...............the worst part is I'm really fucking trying.............hard. Really. Fucking. Hard. So far my overall record is as follows (these are the 3 teams that I have played both times).

Damn, Sammy, I didn't realize you beat me twice. When do we play again? Btw, I sent you another offer. I'm getting used to being rejected.

So,................

20 minuts until the lineup deadline, and I STILL can not get 100% confirmation on if and when Jason Hammel will start.

Greaaaat.


Oh, I know he is in line for Wednesday, and no other day makes more sense for him than to go Wednesday. But, as I have zero confirmation, on the bench he sits.........

Hmm...still says "To be announced" for Wednesday.

 

[Chef99]

Let's see...5 minutes to go...CJ Wilson or Dillon Gee...

Stuck with CJ. Hope he's using his Head and Shoulders. In the meantime I was so involved in trying to make a last minute deal I left Joe Smith in there instead of Melancon. I hope the Sciosciapath is on his meds this week.

 

[Chef99]

Wow...BigD, I just saw the Hammel news posted by MLB...at 7:10.

Lots of conflicting numbers on the matchups of teams both guys are facing, meaning, it was probably a crapshoot on whom would be having the better week.

You knew he would start eventually. The timing of the announcement sucks, but it isn't like they are going to keep him out of the rotation.
