  1. Will deal with as soon as I get home. Honestly thought I had before but must have forgot.
  2. I don't think I'd call Kipnis a piece of junk
  3. anyone have a bead on exactly what the Dodgers opening day lineup is going to look like? More than a few tough calls there.
  4. so what your saying is... HE'LL BE LIKE SANO!!!!! : DDDDD
  5. I got a rotation of Sale, Harvey, Scherzer, Fernandez (+Walker/Norris) in my TWELVE team redraft this year (7x7). Play with a bunch of guys that just don't draft pitching early. I got that rotation and still got Stanton and Hanley with my first 2 picks. I also got a good share of this years crop of sleepers with Walker, Pearce, Zobrist (not a sleeper, but under-rated with SS eligibility). Plus some other nice bats (Holliday, Napoli, Moss, Alverez, and Belt) AND Bryant. I think this is my year!!! *edit* PS, not trying to 'out-do' just noticed a bunch of the same players on our teams so I thought I would post.
  6. because thats the name of the grossest whiskey I have had the displeasure of tasting A buddy brought it back from some trip and we made everyone at a party help finish it because it was so terrible. Better stick with the inverted W
  7. Good for a laugh Orioles Acquire Audry Perez From Rockies walked 4 times in 248 PA's
  8. Pompey has black hole potential (along with good potential). Once Saunders gets back he should never be a black hole, but could very well be below average, same goes from Smoak. Its not a slam dunk, but I can see all those guys being above average if things break right.

    I know I'm watching it
  11. Just make sure the Beest doesn't get a pre-nup and you'll be set
  12. z3r0s - 91 (I choose to be optimistic because there is no prize! )
  13. I suggest that free agency be abolished entirely and that all players get paid retroactively at the end of the season based on their performance (a combo of advanced batting and pitching metrics with more traditional ones for the dinosaurs + new generation fielding stats (as they are developed with MLB's next gen dealy)) compared to the league. The total pot is a percentage of a hockey style 'baseball revenue' number where the players pool get x%. Teams can keep or not keep players based on a know salary at the end of the year and that player can sign with another team based on their opportunity there and preference. Players will be 'insured' against injury by a fund that is part of the total pot, not making their full salary, but not getting nothing for not performing. Career ending injuries will be paid out as a portion of projected salary, incrementally over many years. There are not compensation picks in the draft, all bonuses are fixed, and picks are based off reverse standings. Draft picks are tradable for current assets. Teams have little (or nothing to gain) by holding players back from the majors as there is no service time considerations and a less than peak production MiLB player (who is still developing) may still be better than a s***** old vet, so they may be called up sooner. Dynasties can be created for periods of time (which people like), but will likely eventually fall as their talent ages and they must replaced through the draft (which people also like). Home town groups of players can stay together, and not be broken up by salary cap (a-la the Blackhawks), but there should still be some competitive balance. Making this ridiculous scenario up on the fly, all stemming from 'the service time issue'. what are peoples thoughts
  14. http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2015/03/indians-release-scott-downs.html Downs anyone? Throwing well this spring.
  15. damn ownership just doesn't care about winning
  16. I don't think preferring either is egregious, but I'd lean to Justice (better face)
  17. that is cool
  18. ugggh, must be too early in the morning for me. Browsing the players in the league, see Pastrnak for the Umpteenth, check the sheet, don't find him, add him, realize this can't be possible, realize I checked the DDL sheet, drink more coffee, drop him.
  19. daaaaamn.... oh well at least it was a close match. Now to try and figure out how to get back here next year! Bad luck NJH... I can't cheer for another Egg Roll rival. I wish all the bad fortune in your life to be centered entirely on this league (which would be a pretty good deal if you think about it).
  20. Just did my yearly 12 team 7x7 draft (SV's and Holds pitching) and would love some feedback on my team. C - Zunino 1B - Moss 2B - Walker 3B - Bryant (with Alvarez until then) SS - Hanley 2B/SS - Zobrist 1B/3B - Napoli OF - Stanton OF - Holliday OF - Pearce OF - Morse UTIL - Belt SP - Scherzer SP - Sale SP - Harvey SP - Fernandez SP - Walker SP - Norris SP - Hammel RP - Street RP - Miller RP - Cishek RP - Boxberger On first blush I'm happy, but I'll do some more analysis to see if I f***ed up or not

    anyone else excited about what the Coyotes could do in the next several years? I like the youth they have (with this years draft). I think I'll "cheer" for the going forward (as in, not against any team that I actually like, but still be happy when they do well)
  22. so NJH, how does it feel to be Pinto owner know that Kurt f'n Suzuki is going to take the majority of PA's ahead of him.... I know it was frustrating for me last year.
  23. I would call that a good opening day. Keep'r going Be Sharps!
