I hereby declare this Greinke is Human Week. :D

[tadowdaddy]

2 starts each this week from Halladay and AJB. Maybe my pitching will finally get it together and I won't have to count on my bats to carry me for a week.

[Guest]

Damn you, Tim. Beat me to Rafael Soriano.

Damn you, Tim. Beat me to Rafael Soriano.

Funny part is that as soon as I did that, I saw that Soria went on the DL and that Cruz would be closing for two weeks.

[tadowdaddy]

Ok everyone, I'm willing to trade one of my OF (probably Hawpe or Granderson) and a prospect or two. I'm looking for a stud SP. Let me know if you'd be interested in a trade.

This has been the perfect series for me (Cubs/Pads).

 

Cubs about to sweep. Padres have scored 8 runs in 3 games. My only Padre, Adrian Gonzalez, is responsible for 6 of the 8 runs. 5-9, 4 HRs, 6 RBIs, 2 walks. 29 points in a 3-game series will work!

[NCCubFan]

Definitely not my week. Only five pitching starts, losing one (Lohse) due to a rainout wiping out his start after the game began and losing another (Cook) because I was stupid and forgot to make him active. Not to mention negative 21.5 points from the Cubs' worthless obviously-soon-to-be-ex closer.

[NCCubFan]

My stupidity actually worked to my advantage. Cook had a double-digit negative outing, so having him on my bench was good (although not nearly enough to salvage this week).

[Quakers]

I finally benched Burell (bad neck) and replaced him with Zobrist. I dropped Coke because he is nearing 20 games and I wouldn't be able to stash him in my minors any longer.

 

BTW - What is the order of our next draft? The same as our preseason draft or will we use the waiver wire?

And then there was the sweetness of Armando Galarraga.

[Guest]

Unbelievable. Atlanta rained out and I don't get my 7th start.

 

And I am down 0.25.

Tim, that's 2 weeks in a row you've edged me out for highest point total.

[Guest]

I thought I had you edged out last week (I could have sworn I looked at it after all games had finished), yet it shows us having tied in week five.

 

If it screws me out of another top week, I'm going to...well...whine for a little while and then live with it.

There are two sides to every coin :yahoo: :stickman:

wow...bizarre.

 

I just looked at the standings and now we didn't tie last week. Weird, but a happy weird for me, I guess.

[Guest]

wait...how did Raisin win that?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :cry:

 

Overnight scoring changes killed me.

[Guest]

I was very disappointed that I couldn't use the 1.5 Sean Marshall relief points against Shane. Somehow, I don't see that helping me make up over 60 points.

My only two-start pitcher of the week, and both starts were negative.

[Guest]

wait...how did Raisin win that?

 

Apparently Quakers lost 2 points overnight.

 

:D

You seem to take an unnatural amount of delight from my discomfort. Just wait until next time. :starwars:

It's only fair, I got ripped out of a start!

You call a rainout being "ripped"!?:)

 

 

I have been in some real close games this season (outside of when I played Tim), even though I lost it was fun to almost come back. I thought I was totally out of it at one point. In fact I would have replaced Burrell earier, but I thought why bother. It turns out that could have won the game for me. Oh well, live and learn.
