Can my wild card be a certain member of the cubs that wears #12?

 

Again, I would send it to you directly but its not letting me

That's acceptable.

the only thing less surprising would be if this had come from mojo

[weis21]

Schwarber actually plays for the cubs

[weis21]

just finished with hell week at work. had planned on doing this this morning. i understand if it's too late, but any chance I can submit by the end of the night? in the rare case a player hits a HR today it wouldn't count for me?

 

i understand if it's too late or you don't want to hassle. but just figured it was worth asking.

And the Cubs are a baseball team I take it?

I will allow it under the circumstance, but if I don't have it tonight, we cannot wait.

[weis21]

I see where WC submissions were displayed already.

 

I went out on a far limb and went with Eric Thames. I'm sure when Schwarber hits 50 dongs this year I'll regret it, though.

Dammit. You think I would learn to stay away from Soler. What freakin muscle did he pull this time?

Royals placed OF Jorge Soler on the 10-day disabled list with a strained left oblique.

Soler suffered the injury a week ago. It's been diagnosed as a Grade 1 strain, so he shouldn't be sidelined too long provided that he can avoid setbacks. Paulo Orlando will see most of the playing time in right field while Soler is on the shelf.

You're going down, Peterman. Gonna be drowning your sorrows in yam-yam and Shanghai Sally.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

I think my total was incorrect. Did you catch that I had edited my lineup before the deadline to switch out Byung-ho Park for Yasiel Puig?

My mistake. I have corrected it on the scoreboard sheet I tally, and it will be reflected in the next posted Scoreboard (on Sunday).

[Ding Dong Johnson]

I'm a big fat idiot who doesn't know stuff

 

bye Gary Sanchez

 

hello Tommy Joseph

[evv98]

First place for only the second time in franchise history. \:D/

 

Instinctively I started looking for my team starting at the bottom of the standings. I actually thought that my team had been left out.

 

Well, only about 95% of the season to go. We got this.

[PetermanRealityTour]

Drop Sanchez

Add Trout

Think Again! Just need a trip down to Burma to clear my head

[Bobson Dugnutt]

Drop Sanchez, add Lamb
