Ack! Suffering from trade withdrawal.

Must be tough.

Wahhhh Heyward :'(
That's my first rd and third rd guys gone.... good thing I've been lucky otherwise
Now to find his replacement. Yuck

 

[tlance]

I seem to be losing players at an alarming rate too. First Gomez, not Joey Bats, Marte, and Reddick?

Not a good week to be an OF for the Salamis.

I keep flip flopping on Rajai Davis. I want the steals, but hate everything in between. Figured I'd take a chance on Castellanos with September coming and ya gotta figure the Dirks/Tuiasosopo/Kelly leash is at it's end, right? I know he's only hitting .275, but I would think the opposing teams aren't too afraid of anyone else in that lineup the Mudhens throw out there every night, other than Garcia who is now gone... and Garcia was generally batting in front of him anyway.

I know. It might allow me to have my first winning week in awhile.

Damn, looks like you got the best of that deal, Chef. Beachy has a date with Dr. Andrews... can't be good. Have fun with Grandy!

I'll tell ya, Puig really has a lot to learn about the finer points of the game, but he's gonna be a BEAST.

What round do you guys think he goes in next year? 2nd? 3rd?

 

[tlance]

3rd sounds about right in most leagues. Bryce Harper did go first in a lot this year, however, the Puig hype could be similar.

Whoa, just saw that. Sorry, man.

I think I would let someong take in in the 1st round. I would want to wait a bit myself.

An odd fantasy quirk for me last not, one that I am not sure I have done before. Though on 2 different teams, I had both starters for the Giants/Pit game last night, Cain & Locke.

And, before the end of the 3rd inning last night, neither was still on my team.

Just kind of quirky. And, yes, I know, Cain is not DL bound. I still think getting hit may cost him a start and some effectiveness, but I needed a closer more to make a standings move, one that should work 100% for me to move up.

You got good use out of Locke for sure, but it was time to cut ties with him.

For me and Locke, it was deja vu all over again. I had James McDonald of the Bucs last year, and he had a great first 1/2, only to fall apart at the end.

Hey Big D, someone took offence to your comments (or should I say the gif) on the Mets thread.

Got a couple of doozies for you.

yoga~surfing starts threads in the political forum with titles like "Serious Mental Retardation running rampant throughout the GOP..."

He obviously has his big boy pants on, right?

Not so fast...

For some odd reason he felt the need to report BigDDude, one of the most mature and prolific posters on the MLB boards for this?

3 different sites, 3 different sets of two-start pitchers. WTF?

I'll have to check out the Perfessor guy tomorrow...maybe he'll have the straight deal.

 

[Chef99]

"Why, Liriano? Why???"

 

[Chef99]

Whoa Tlance, your OF has taken a beating. You're lucky to have Gomez looking ready to go. It will be interesting to see how you juggle your lineup.

 

[TKOSpikes]

I think I'm leap frogging into 4th here after tonight... thanks for the boosts Phila and Chef!!

Nitty gritty time gentlemen!
