Lightning Flik 0 Report post Posted May 12, 2004 Guapos, you'd need a good shot in wins for two weeks to pull off a first place lead. Even then, I'm not sure about it. And frankly, is anyone surprised that with the amount of moves that I've made, I'm actually in contendership for first place? I mean, honestly, anyone think my team would be this good? I certainly didn't think I'd live up to the high expectations I placed on my team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bored 0 Report post Posted May 19, 2004 Hey pretty good for the #1 pick, huh? I'll chalk it up to bad luck since I'm 3-3 in the actual match-ups. Losing Troy Glaus and Marcus Giles this week isn't helping things. Oh well guess I'll push for the title in Dr. Tom's league and have Randy Johnson there.

the pinjockey 0 Report post Posted May 22, 2004 I just want to vent my frustration with the NL league. I hold onto Chase Utley for a month, I finally cave in and drop him to get an OF in Preston Wilson's spot, and the day I do that Placido Polanco goes down and Utley kicks all sorts of ass in his spot. FUCK, I knew al would be the one to get me on that one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HarleyQuinn 0 Report post Posted May 22, 2004 Ya know...I sorely miss Trot, Garret Anderson and Prior right now heh. Prior probably more so as my offense has been remaining solid each week but my pitching has been up and down throughout the season. Bit the bullet and picked up reliever John Reidling of the Reds, 1 ER in 22 IP and a 0.41 ERA can't hurt, he'll likely take Rodrigo Lopez's place in the pen on my team as Lopez is now moving into the Orioles rotation in place of Ainsworth.

treble 0 Report post Posted May 27, 2004 I'm getting pretty lucky in the NL league. Sexson gets hurt, so I pick up Cordero for a bit before he gets hurt. After that, I pick up Daryle Ward right before Sexson gets off the DL. Ward was on a bit of a hot streak, and I didn't want to give him up for nothing, so I made a trade offer before I got around to taking Sexson off the DL. Thankfully, the person who I made the offer to never saw it, since Sexson got hurt again while still on my DL and Ward's still playing well. Tom Glavine and Chris Carpenter are helping out, too, and I don't think anyone thought Clemens would pitch this well. Picking up Zach Greinke was a real coup in the AL only league. This kid is special. Yeah, I tried to pick him up, too, but I wasted my waiver priority on Justin Miller a few weeks ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

razazteca 0 Report post Posted May 28, 2004 Sean Casey is the greatest back up ever! When Thome and Helton got hurt its not a big deal since I have Sean Casey to move play at 1st Base then I can either play one of my backup SS or OF. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted May 28, 2004 But I picked up the Greek God of Walks. Bow down! I passed because I wasn't sure he'd get playing time. I have Eric Chavez anyway, so Youklis wouldn't have helped much. Justin Morneau was a great pickup however. And the Cleveland Indians decided to make Jose Jimenez their closer, so I grabbed him as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
