Can't blame me for trying to get an edge on strikeouts using SP's in the RP spot. It's not against the rules.

Not saying it is against the rules, but if your complaining about holds as a stat when your deliberately ignoring them in favor of getting more K's, you can't have a beef.

And I never said I was deliberately ignoring (just kind ignoring them? lol) I had Masset and I thought he'd get me holds. He hasn't. I thought Frasor would get me holds after being taken out as closer. He hasn't. It's not 100% me ignoring the category, it's partially my players not performing like I thought they would. I'm getting Bard from the waiver, though, so when I get him you can't say I'm ignoring it anymore.

Hey Ratwar I sent you a trade offer.

How do you like mine, Miller?

How do you like mine, Miller?

I will accept it if I can get one of my trades through.I have solid pitching but Braden is better than the majority of mine.

Okay. If you can't get one the trades to go through then maybe we can work something out ourselves and I'll add something else to the deal. I just really want a closer. With Franklin and Cordero I'd be happy enough to go get another Holds guy to go with Bard.

Hey Ratwar I sent you a trade offer.

Gonna have to decline it. I've never been a fan of Hamels, and after 18 Stolen Bases last week, I don't need Bartlett's speed.

If anyone is in need of a below average SS with very good speed but can't get on base Alexi Ramirez will be available when Kinsler comes off the DL this week. Send your offers quickly so you don't miss out.

What about Zambarano or Sheets?

NOOOOOO! Not Cruz! Anyone but Cruz... Well, at least most people besides Cruz...

Really, I'm not that interested in SPs in general.

The last thing the Rangers need is to have him go on the DL. Just as Kinsler is about to come back, he goes on the DL. So we have to wait that much longer before the line-up is complete. Gah!!!

Is he going on the DL, I don't see that anywhere?

Cruz? Yeah, he's already on the DL now. Sadly, after rosters are locked so I can't pick anyone up...

Ninja and Red I accepted your trades.

» Sun Dec 20, 2009 10:34 am

Saaaaweet! Thanks.

Yeah it took Yahoo! longer to get him on there.

Am I missing something? It seems like Braden for Cordero is kind of a crap deal for you...

Braden has been pitching well and the A's have been good.Besides I never really over value relievers.Any closer on a half way decent team can get 30 saves.I plan to acquire a RP in my next trade as well.I am trying to get ride of a couple.

Any way I am till willing to trade some Starting pitching away for SB, AVG, and a RP.If anyone has anything in ind just send me something.

» Sun Dec 20, 2009 8:40 am

Yeah, Braden's been lights out. Good ERA, good strikeout total.

I'm such an idiot. If Drew Stubbs didn't play for the Reds then I probably would have dropped him by now. Damn my bias!!! He gets this week to prove himself...

EDIT: Meh, Braden's SO total isn't as great as it seems. First game he had 10 K's, then the next three game combined he's had 8. Still seems like a good sleeper pitcher at this point. That is if he keeps it up, of course.

My offense is awful so far. Yesterday only 9 of my players went without a hit, 6 of which didn't even get on base at all. If it weren't for Michael Bourn I might have had a sub-.100 batting average for the day. And today, Kevin Correia has 7 hits and 4 earned runs in 3.1 innings. Pretty sure they pulled him from the game. Bad bad week for my team to implode.

EDIT: So apparently they're still going with Correia, I thought the game was at San Diego but it's at Florida.

Your no the only one.I have four people with a .000 average this week and 4 below .200.A grand total of .169

» Sun Dec 20, 2009 9:08 am

I am getting no production this week at all, it's pretty pitiful.

» Sun Dec 20, 2009 3:03 am

My team's off to a dismal start as well...

» Sun Dec 20, 2009 10:21 am

Oh wow, so after all my complaining about Correia, he still got the win. Someone outsvcked him!

Have you guys seen Tim Lincecum's sportscenter commercial?

Not as good as the Arnold Palmer one, Scott Van Pelt is too funny.
