  1. theriot's hit 8th quite a bit this year too, and he has fewer walks than castro in like 120 more PA's.
  2. man, the offense will suck next year if ramirez leaves.
  3. the six points scored for chuck by that chacin guy need to be taken away as he pitched out of the pen.
  4. lots of big intra-divisional games this week. for the second time this year, having an illegal roster for chuck is paying off big time against me. seth smith, who would not be in his lineup if it weren't illegal as [expletive], is having a big game. good news is, i should be in line for a waiver claim on heyward or beltran this weekend, so that's exciting.
  5. porcello was in the minors when the week started, which is why he's there on my team now. i'll have him either on my major league roster or dropped by tomorrow's roster deadline.
  6. He's got some weird ties to Indiana. I think he went to Culver Military Academy. He also has some ties to Columbus OH, that's why the Clippers were the AAA team for so long. Yes, he did go to Culver. That's who was playing my school when he came to the game. I had forgotten the name until you mentioned it. the plot thickens
  7. and i think we'd all agree that magglio ordonez will be considered the greatest clutch hitter of this generation.

    Week 14

    i don't think he actually started. everything i've read says he was scratched from his start.
  9. I know he had no intentions of keeping Hamilton, but that is a horrible decision he made. He was the Dennis Eckersly of the 2000's. Hendry didn't know that he was completely off clean and had his life back together, just as the Cubs didn't know if Eck was off the booze, even Dennis admitted to it when he said he "didn't blame the cubs for trading him." Just like the 80's I wish we had Eck after we traded him and josh now WHAT.
  10. is the infante thing a typo or something? you could have given me 200 guesses and i'd never pick him as an all-star. weird.
  11. i didn't even know infante started for the braves.
  12. norris wasn't replacing a player who was injured, benched or was otherwise scheduled to make a start and then did not. same with when kid rodelo picked up morrow mid week a few weeks ago. don't really see your point since you DID get to keep norris' points just like kid rodelo got to keep morrow's points.
  13. i had a guy that was scheduled to start and he got bumped to next week. that seems like a pretty valid reason to pick a SP mid week to get your 7 starts. the decision to bump kennedy wasn't made until after monday. i should be punished a start because kennedy didn't make his scheduled start?
  14. people really give a [expletive] about mike fontenot getting stiffed playing time?
  15. it's too bad the game couldn't have ended with gorz hitting into a double play with the bases loaded. that would have been hilarious.
  16. good thing fukudome was used as a pinch bunter.
  17. my last eight starts have totaled -16 points. no joke.
  18. and jeff francis has figured out the only way to let this lineup beat you... Lineup J. Hairston 2B C. Denorfia CF S. Hairston LF N. Hundley C C. Headley 3B O. Salazar 1B A. Cunningham RF E. Cabrera SS C. Richard P by [expletive] walking everybody.
  19. i've weathered the first round of lee/strasburg...only down 26 w/ a two start advantage. would have been nice had lee not pitched a pointless CG though.
  20. i've always thought of the all-star team as guys who had a great first half and "deserved" to make the team. i don't think a guy who has played in seven games or whatever "deserves" to make the team.
  21. kennedy's start has been pushed from friday to monday, so i'll be picking someone up to get my 7th start.
  22. what a waste of 13 homers.... is 8.5 points out of 7 starts good?
  23. lol at least he stood up to that prima donna hanley ramirez.
