Week 4

[abuck1220]

ensberg: 0-7, 10 left on base. ouch.

 

drew (stephen)!

[NCCubFan]

Over 215 points (before deductions) in just three days. Washburn was awesome for me today (complete game shutout) and Webb wasn't too shabby either.

[rawaction]

I'm down 23 with a 2-start advantage for the week. I like my chances if I can keep pace offensively.

[Chris]

47.55 points for the week.

[abuck1220]

good to see that teixeira's 2006 first half scott hatteberg impression wasn't a one time deal.

 

2 doubles, 0 hrs, 3 rbi

[rawaction]

Uh, Wow. What do you guys think of this call?

 

Down 3-0. Leadoff double by Blalock, Ian Kinsler (.333, 8 HRs, 19 RBI, 2-4 career vs. Paul Byrd) up to bat.....AND HE SACRIFICES, with Brad Wilkerson on deck! I don't know if Kinsler missed a sign, but why would you give up an out with what has been your best hitter (only regular with a SLG over .450), when you are losing?

And next time up....exact same situation. Kinsler actually gets to hit and hits a RBI double.

i like that kinsler's batting 7th when their 2-5 hitters are all hitting under .217.

 

you suck, teixeira.

Yes, that's always nice too. He had been batting 2nd recently too, which I think is a great spot for him.

 

What the heck is wrong with Tex?

off the roids, i guess.

 

i dunno, he hit homers like a maniac last year in the second half...guess i have to hope for that again.

[Guest]

Kinsler is a middle infielder. they are bunters by definition.

You could make a nice team of guys whose power production is way down. Lee, Teixeira, David Wright, Soriano

[abuck1220]

unfortunately, two of those guys are cubs and two of them are on my fantasy team.

[Chris]

I'd probably make a trade for one of them.

[abuck1220]

i'm always open to offers.

[abuck1220]

that's what the orioles get for bringing their closer in for unnatural saves. it's wrong.

[Chris]

The only solace I have right now is that I'm only down 50 points. The Dishmans are flat out pitiful this week.

 

 

attention my players: STOP GETTING HURT!

 

Complete disappointment by my team after a huge week against NSBB. I expect to be down around 65 with 3 days left. I'm holding out hope on the fact that I have the start advantage 5-3.

 

I need Sanchez to be able to get some innings and for Gaudin to get a QS to have a remote shot at getting back in this one.

[Quakers]

Things are not looking good for the Quakers. We are even on starts and I am down by about 80 points. Isn't there are rule somewhere that says you can use the extra points for one week during the next :^o

[NCCubFan]

Too bad there isn't such a rule. I could take some of my over 100 excess points from last week, apply them to the first two weeks, and be 3-0. :D

[Chris]

Today is a good day. After mowing the yard with either a push or propel mower, today was the day my new riding mower arrived. I put off buying one because mowing our yard is pretty good exercise (which I need). However, with a 9 month old I'd much rather spend that time with her than being outside for 2-3 hours.

[Quakers]

Dang, Tim beat me to him. I was hoping to pick up Sean Rodriguez, but I have been really busy the last few weeks. Now I find that Tim picked him up a week or so ago... :x

[tadowdaddy]

0-4

What do I have to do to win???

[Chris]

Only down 23 with 3 starts each. Come on, boys, we can win this one.

[abuck1220]

i like my bullpen.

 

 

rough week for tim. :shock:
