  1. thats simply not realistic
  2. i'm sorry GR but he's going to win R, HR, RBI, SB, OPS nearly every week. with that roster i'd probably trade off all pitching for good relievers and win 8 categories most weeks.
  3. and the Indians don't?
  4. http://projectprospect.com/article/2009/03/16/top-200-prospect-list couple weeks old but depressing. only 2 of the top 199 and Cashner sitting there at 200
  5. a few Marlins make playoffs (desp 90+ loss pecota/tht projection) Nolasco wins CY Orioles finish over .500 James McDonald finishes 2nd in ROY Wieters doesn't win Giants win division Brett Gardner gets at least 1 MVP vote Rangers win division - Cruz has more valuable season than Hamilton Phillies miss playoffs Brian Wilson leads league in saves Lester leads AL in wins Bradley plays 135 games
  6. pujols, reyes, howard, upton must be some kind of joke in that auction league your first league has nasty pitching Alexei already has SS elig in Yahoo, i dont know about other formats
  7. I'm not remembering how we acquired Bellhorn, but I don't think it was for 3 prospects, at least 2 of which have had some success in the majors for Florida (Mitre may be nothing, but he was roughly league average for a year in '07). For whatever success JP has had in the majors, he had 700 pretty brutal ABs for us. Yeah, the prospect we gave up for Bellhorn never made it to the majors. And Bellhorn wasn't a slap hitter with a low OBP like Pierre. ~ league average = low? ricky nolasco would have been traded for crap the likes of Garrett Olson or Andy Pratt long before he ever developed, had we kept him.
  8. absolutely- you upgrade tremendously at 1B & 2B, and lose only depth at the first sign of Vmart productivity, i'd get rid of Ramon Hernandez for someone with discernible upside
  9. not that i have any special affection for the guy, but it's puzzling how if somebody speaks ill of say, mark bellhorn, droves of people come in to defend him, but pierre, who's actually had a reasonably productive MLB career in comparison, gets piled on mercilessly
  10. or why did he trade Andrew Miller for him, is a better question
  11. Screw the Timberwolves, I have no clue why Kevin Love isn't playing more minutes when he's doing well. http://www.yardbarker.com/media/a/b/ab142c9fe2d9b29b49da991e5996a603e7a34647/xl/Blake_Griffin.jpg
  12. lol, stop and start inSIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIiiiide!!
  13. That has been the rumor out there and rationale for his name being included every time a "name" school has an opening. For whatever reason he supposedly feels he and their program's success are taken for granted and not appreciated. he's just not under appreciated in East Lansing, drive around there sometime. iirc he's damn near the highest paid coach in the NCAA too. that's a phony excuse for considering leaving.
  14. aldrich really isn't awkward. suton doesnt seem that awkward to me, either, but I haven't seen much of him. oh come on, the guy constantly evokes memories of Big Country
  15. did you get any of the OU game today or no? i did myself a favor and skipped that one
  16. man, this Suton/Aldridge matchup is more honky awkwardness than i can handle
  17. wrong-est quote from a broadcaster since whatever brennaman last said about tebow
  18. Pekka Rinne, and it's not even close
  19. Terrance Taylor, DT, Michigan because the Lions need DTs and i'm a homer
  20. #10 for steve mason, a rookie record hey i'm just sayin
  21. it's not money, the problem is that we have a farm director who is either woefully inept or egotistical, eschewing common sense with his picks
  22. on another note, http://assets.sbnation.com/assets/80325/collegeseniors_medium.jpg
