  1. This gives us hope that Izturis is overvalued and we can get something for him.
  2. Wells would be your impact bat and he will likely take more than Izturis to get. Would Pie and Izturis be worth it? Maybe a couple minor league pitchers and Izturis and they send us an overpriced player too. They waived Hillenbrand and Wells just declined an extension.
  3. I would see if what the trade market would be like for Izturis in the offseason. If you can get an OF or starting pitcher for him then move Cedeno back to SS. Then find a table setter type for 2B. Move Jones to CF and platoon him with Pagan. Keep Murton in LF (or RF) and hope he develops more. Maybe sign Nevin for the bench. Maybe sign Cattalano. My ideal situation would be trade Izturis for Vernon Wells and sign Schmidt and some undervalued 2B. Who would overvalue Isturis' defense?
  4. Who pitches tomorrow? who is ready in Iowa or Tennessee?
  5. I say leave names off the pinstripes but on the alternates.
  6. League ID#: 402352 League Name: NSBBFFL 2006 Password: gocubs Draft Type: Live Draft Draft Time: Sat Aug 26 8:30pm MST (10:30 pm CDT) Max Teams: 12
  7. Pierre will be back. Hendry will overpay just so he doesn't have to think that he gave up 3 pitchers for nothing.
  8. I'm hoping for Catalanotto and Craig Wilson to platoon at one corner.
  9. Thom and Gracie are ripping on Hendry for signing Rusch and Neifi.
  10. I went to the Iowa game on Friday. Gooz started and looked good until the 5th. Maybe he has reliever written all over him.
  11. I have Howry on my fantasy team and he got me a save. I had to bench Turnbow.
  12. Anyone know who's pitching? I plan to take the camera. Anyone want me to get pics of a certain player?
  13. then the Orioles will trade them to us along with Cpatt for Rusch, Neifi and Pierre.
  14. Check the 24 Season 5 thread. Carlos Bernard was in the game. It was actually taped on Sunday. The whole Jimmy Kimmel/ Sarah Siverman dating was overplayed.
  15. Seconded Pepsi is the official soft drink of Major League Baseball
  16. The offer is the All star game shirt and hat or one of those teams listed. I already bought the 4 12 packs of Pepsi for $8. It takes 12 weeks for delivery. Pepsi is the official soft drink of MLB.
  17. Safeway has an offer: http://safeway1.inserts2online.com/SafewaySafeway06212006Phoenix/breakouts/b118822_26.jpg http://safeway1.inserts2online.com/SafewaySafeway06212006Phoenix/large/large118822.jpg I am leaning towards Washington or D-backs.
  18. They say you should reserve your best reliever for the 9th, but it really is just a way to get the best reliever the save opportunities so that he can have the best stats and earn his salary. Similar to having your best hitter in the #3 slot to give him RBI opportunities.
  19. I remember the Astros game in '89 was the first day of school, we went to the game the day before.
  20. what's Deon Sanders doing these days, the Cubs need a center fielder.
  21. In NL the CF usually needs to cover more ground to make up for the slow corner OF. In the AL the slowest guy can be the DH and each OF can cover the ground that a slower CF (but better hitter) can't. It also allows for a bit more flexiblity year to year. A team can sign a player even though they already have a player for that position, one of them can be DH.
  22. I kind of like the difference between the leagues.
  23. any news on jersey number?
  24. EricG

    who did we end up with for Van Buren (PTBNL)?
