  1. Rose should go to the hole every single time.
  2. It was pretty much a joke. I just wanted to see how an all Chicago team would do. Compared to some of the teams that were drafted it may actually not do too bad. I'm predicted a 5th/6th place finish. I saw someone draft an all Yankee team and it gave me the idea, but an all Cubs team would suck since ESPN has 2B/SS, 3B/1B and 5 OF spots, so I made it all Chicago. They actually match up pretty well as the Sox have Quentin and Dye to boost up the OF and Alexei to help with 2B/SS. Jenks and Danks are decent for the pitching. Thornton might be a good middle reliever to help with ERA, WHIP, and Ks.
  3. Wow. What a way to put a nail in your own team's coffin.
  4. Thomas should probably not be guarding Pierce. Derrek Rose is taking over. Wow. I hate when Salmons decides to randomly chuck up a 3 when it's not in the flow of the offense.
  5. Not a bad team. How bout this one I made in an ESPN auction draft: C-Soto 1B-Lee 2B-Alexei Ramirez SS-Theriot 3B-Aramis Ramirez 2B/SS-Fontenot 1B/3B-Konerko OF-Soriano OF-Quentin OF-Bradley OF-Dye OF-Fukudome Util-Thome P-Harden P-Zambrano P-Lilly P-Dempster P-Danks P-Floyd P-Marmol P-Jenks P-Gregg P-Marshall Bench-Fields Bench-Owens
  6. I've done this scoring before and I found it to be pretty horrible. Pretty much just pick all underdogs. You'll miss on most your picks, but still end up winning by a good margin. I like the idea of rewarding successfully picking upsets, but not with such a drastic bonus.
  7. Thank you Arod for getting hurt. I now have an offense that will feature ARod and Pujols (from mid May on) in my 12 team money league. And once Wieters gets called up June 1st, I'll really get rolling.
  8. I just saw the draft was changed to next Sunday. I'm going to be out of town then, so I'll have to leave the league. Thanks anyways. Spot up for grabs I guess.
  9. Aren't we still 2 teams short?
  10. I need some help ranking setup men. My league counts holds so setup men provide a lot of value. I'm not going to draft any of them too high because it's easy to find solid setup men throughout the season, and it seems that there's a lot of variability from year to year. That said, I'd still like to put a list together. So can someone help me out and throw out a few they think are the top or make their short list so I can compare my list to others. I tried searching, but none of the fantasy sites really rank middle relievers.
  11. Ben played great for most of the time, but he gets greedy and decides to take 27 foot three-pointers which I am not a big fan of. He will score 40 and give up 40. Who DOESN'T give up 40 to Dwayne Wade. I feel like I'm the only Ben Gordon defender in the entire world. But wait until next year when he's gone and the Bulls are averaging 83 points a game and sitting at 4-17. I think you think Ben Gordon is wayyy better than he is I think the truth lies somewhere in between. We would be a pretty miserable team without him this year.
  12. That would have been a real nice win.
  13. That's hilarious. People are nuts.
  14. Good to see Marshall, Gregg, and Vizcaino all pitch well. Not good about Cashner, though.
  15. Hmm...I don't know how that's possible if you're a real Bulls fan. VDN needs to go. I'm pretty sure he's on a 2 year deal and not a 3 like someone said a few posts ago.
  16. Lackey or Oswalt. You need a SP.
  17. Wow. My opinion of Lu has changed so much so fast. I can't believe I wish he wasn't on this team.
  18. I already know the answer to this, but why didn't we just sign Cruz to that contract and lose the pick and not trade for Gregg?
  19. I'm really diggin this new 9 man rotation. The new guys and Hinrich make up a pretty decent bench.
  20. Realistically we'd have to get the 6 seed for a chance at that.
  21. Well in his defense he did it last offseason when Posada was coming off a great year. .338/.426/.543/.970 with 20 homers, 90 RBIs, 91 runs. His previous season he also hit 23 homers with a .867 OPS. So it's not like I was going to give him away for nothing.
  22. That dastardly fiend! Well, I'm definitely interested, so you can mark me down as a thumbs up, especially since it'd be a challenge and an obvious commitment. As I asked before, does this league have league fees? Also, what fantasy site/program is this dynasty set up on? Hey Logan, here's the forum we use to kind of keep in touch over the offseason and do the minor league drafts and such. http://mfcubs22.proboards46.com/index.cgi Another tough thing is you wouldn't have a 1st round pick this year. Roast traded it to me for Posada before the start of last year. But honestly, there's plenty of top 100 prospects that are still available. I also have some ideas of trades that might help both of us that we can discuss if you do decide to take it over. I'm not gonna lie, it's a bit of a challenge, but it's not too hard to turn things around and like I said there's at least a decent nucleus there. It's a free league and we run it through yahoo. We already have the league set up and we're just waiting on a few more people to join. So take a look and let me know if you're interested. If you have any questions just let me know. If you decide to take over the team just register on the site above and post in the check in thread over there. Thanks
