week 21

[Tim]

I'll either get to within one game of Alamo or be out of reach of the top spot at the end of the week.

 

C'mon boys!

[Guest]

Which makes the loss to Juan even worse.

[abuck1220]

the bashers have been unstoppable lately.

[rawaction]

Start Gallardo last 2 weeks. -50 and -15 point games. This week, I bench him, he puts up 25 points, Shawn Marcum takes his place, scores (-15). I'm down 20+ and down a start. I need a big offensive week and my aces have to come thru again (Hamels, Santana).

[Guest]

Damnit, would have loved 8 shutout from Lincecum and then the Cubs come from behind off another pitcher.

[cbbryan]

NC had 3 starts tonight and gets a bit of a jump on me. I'm only 32 pts down w/ a 2 start advantage the rest of the way!

 

Let's go boys!

It would have been even better if I had Washburn active and Rodriguez reserved instead of the other way around. I have so many two start pitchers this week I have 11 starts to get 7 from. Last week I had to pick up a pitcher just to get 7.

I'm only going to have 6. Germano in NY vs Mets makes me nervous, but I don't think I can go with just 5 starts.

 

Should be a fairly close week.

[rawaction]

I'm gonna lose this week. My team fell into the letdown game trap.

Ahh, I know all about that. Last week, my team was looking ahead to the big matchup against Tim this week.

[Quakers]

Sure now Anderson has a 10-rbi game, after I bench him. Arg...what a season!

[NCCubFan]

Too bad nobody in the league has Paul Shuey on their team. His 9 earned runs in 1/3 of an inning (in Baltimore's 30-3 loss to Texas) might have set an all-time low for pitching points.

[cbbryan]

Well, I'm F@#$ed! My pitchers can't manage a start over 13pts, not even my Aces! I didn't catch NC tonight and had 3 starts, I'm down in starts the rest of the week.

 

I can't switch Giambi out mid week even though Joe Torre's a [expletive] idiot and won't play him.

 

Meanwhile, I have Mr. Jack Cust tearing up my bench with another GREAT week!

 

BASEBALL SUCKS!

[abuck1220]

hopefully i'm getting all these weeks where my opponent scores 350 out of the way before the playoffs.

 

if cordero hadn't [expletive] all over himself tonight, i'd actually be half way in this one.

[abuck1220]

and the cubs get completely terrible wuertz tonight so dempster gets a save opp.

My team just had one of those days; 70 points with just one pitching start (it helps that Marshall was the one start). Everybody was contributing. If they'd do that more often I'd still be in playoff contention rather than playing spoiler.

 

My team does seem to have your number this year. :D

AND GIAMBI SITS AGAIN! I should have just left the Utility spot unfilled. I'd be .075 pts closer anyway............................. Meh!

The East could get very interesting. Assuming the scores hold, the standings will be (with 2 weeks to go):

 

Budcrew, 12-8

Buddiga, 11-9

Bashers, 11-9

 

Budcrew-Buddiga is next week. The Bashers have a very tough game against the Dawgs, though the Bashers look to be on their way to 6 straight weeks with a win.

 

I think this has been the most competitive year for Roadkill, particularly in the East maybe 6 teams at or above .500 after this week.

I prefer the results of previous years, personally. I hate being a clear points leader and having no real chance to win my own division. :evil:

Juan, is Wakefield using steriods?

for what purpose would wakefield use steroids?

[NCCubFan]

I haven't been following the AL very closely, so I was shocked when I read that Wakefield has won 16 games already this year. Talk about a surprise 20-game winner if he makes it.

[Guest]

Juan,

 

I put Parra in based on the belief that he'd be starting this weekend. He came into the game in relief, so his points should be removed. Sorry about the extra work. Shows what happens when you assume, I guess.

Exactly O:)

you are aware he is a knuckleballer aren't you? Wakefield consistently puts up very good numbers on a yearly basis. He plays for the best offense in baseball. He throws a lot of innings. I wouldn't be terribly surprised if he won 20. but I've always been a wakefield fan.
