now nobody [expletive] give tim back all these draft picks he's losing by taking on players he's going to drop at the end of the year.
-
can i just concede next week right now? two starts each for ubaldo and lincecum...[expletive].
-
You might get yours this week, especially if Kershaw and Leake don't deliver great performances. BTW, Buster Posey was finally called up! I know we've been through this before, but I cannot promote him midweek and drop a player to find him roster spot and then place him in the lineup ? Please confirm. i believe you can put him in the lineup, yes.

i'm sorry, did they really just send the runners down five [expletive] runs against yadier molina?

Pick 1 game in history to attend live

Right, so why wouldn't he want to go to one of those instead of some sweep of a doubleheader in May of 2004? Because he's trolling? Yes. Jake is definitely trolling. And he's also definitely the only one doing so in this thread. I know Jake isn't a troll, but that response was just dumb. Why would that be the one game he would want to go to? Congrats those wins really meant a lot for your franchise they propelled you to 6 more losing seasons. Meanwhile you could have watched Honus Wagner play. yeah, dummy. what an appalling waste of a time-travelling opportunity. -

i'd go back and kill hitler when he was a baby. -
kinda sucks to only outscore your opponent by 10 or so on a day when you each have two starts and one of your guys throws a CG shutout. oh well, up 45 with even starts and i've dodged the hughes/halladay combo.
-
tommy hanson wanted to put an end to this week before we even got to tuesday, but manny corpas was like not so fast, pal. today is the day i get my roy halladay beatin'. i just have to close my eyes and hope for the best...like when andy gets raped in shawshank redemption.

aroldis chapman is available, everybody.
-
7 or 8 maybe.
-
my first seven draft picks: granderson - terrible/now injured hill - injured wolf - so-so lowe - terrible street - injured francisco - terrible/lost his job conor jackson - injured so, yeah, i'm pretty good at drafting.
-
pretty happy to be 3-1 considering street, hill and rollins have been injured, teix, granderson and sheets have been terrible, and both my closers lost their jobs within a week and a half.
-
his time as a hand sanitizer may be coming to an end...
-
WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T USE YOUR CATCHER THAT IS HITTING .360 TO BAT EVEN THOUGH YOU HAVE TO PUT HIM IN THE GAME NEXT INNING.
-
please tell me koyie hill is nowhere near home plate right now.
-
when you're facing the yankees, you're gonna want to panic like a [expletive] lunatic because they are really good.
-
is that really the word around the league?
-
mute. and man that was entertaining. i posted a quality picture of bud from the cosby show that got NO respect from you guys. my hilarity is so wasted on this bunch.

he's being mentioned as a candidate for the coaching job. can't say i'm on board with that. Not sure I am either, but you might want to get used to the idea... Hoiberg Next ISU Head Coach He's not called "The Mayor" for nothing so he should excite the fanbase, but the lack of coaching experience isn't good, and it's gonna suck if it doesn't work out. It's like the B.J. Armstrong to Iowa stuff but worse. At least B.J. is in with WW Wes. There's upside but there's also high potential for a total bust. And that results in you complaining about one of your favorite players of all-time and wanting him fired because he's a failure. eh, it's not like he's been out of basketball bagging groceries or something. i don't know how i feel about it, but it's not like they passed on a homerun guy like tom izzo or something. i mean, who were they going to get? the illinois state coach? meh. the important thing is, their best recruiter is staying on.

i don't see where it says you can (and none of the stuff you highlighted has anything to do with picking up free agents). and rosters need to be set on monday. so unless there's some exception that says you can pick up FA pitchers mid-week, it's pretty clear you cannot. i can't believe we're debating this for the 943rd time.
-
unless there's a reason why you didn't add this guy on monday (ie you didn't find out one of your starters was going to miss a start due to injury until tuesday), then it's just simply that you didn't get around to doing it until tuesday. tough [expletive]. add guys on monday if you want them for the week.
-
that's different than picking up a free agent. that obviously refers to moving a guy from your starting lineup to bench and vice versa. seriously, we go over the same [expletive] like six times a year. you can't pick up free agents mid-week unless there's a trade, injury, etc. am i the only one who can remember this stuff?
-
-
no, you can't. if one of your guys gets injured, then yes. otherwise, no. why would that be allowed? rosters must be set by monday. it's been this way for a hundred years (rounded to the nearest hundred).
