[Mark Priors Calves]

Well, I waited 3 months to check the HR Derby results, and now I think I understand why. Awfully thoughtful of HawkCub to save me from total embarassment.

 

HawkCub has a guy who is not in the bigs anymore. Its tough to win that way.

Finally had a decent showing, with a 5 HR night, but I need bigger outputs to even crack the top 5.

[TruffleShuffle]

2 homers for Thome tonight, plus Swisher, Giambi and Aubrey Huff, who all of a sudden has remembered how to be a good baseball player (OPS over 900 since the beginning of June). Delicious.

[Derwood]

I still have 3 players in single digits, two of whom are Teixeira and Abreu :evil: :x :evil: :x :shock:

can we start over?

 

I'd settle for a do-over on bonus players. 8-)

20 more HRs would come my way if I would have had the forsight to select Thome instead of Lowell. :?
