a) What the hell, it can’t get any worse.
b) Don’t make a bad thing worse.
c)

I heart those guys.

A mustachioed Donnie in #23 would win them 100 games, easily.

Terrific game by both pitchers, none of them gave up a run, plenty of Ks, and Belt got on base twice (OBP leagues).

I wish it were always this simple.

Nevermind, fellas. I was looking at ESPN and they scored it earned for a second, then later changed it to unearned. Thanks.

He tried to go for the tag and throw across the diamond for two and ended up missing the runner (phillips?) with the tag (questionable) and being late on the throw (no doubt). Bases loaded and no one out. Gomes sack fly. Cargo (imposter) jumps for a fly ball clearly not leaving the park but tries to add a degree of difficulty bonus. Keeps runner on second from tagging and going to third though (which is funny because he throws like Johnny Damon). Like a true rolaids man, Axford gets the next two out before surrendering the awful walkoff on a high and outside pitch a foot off the plate (looked like a change that got left up). Blech, when will these closers learn to get beat on their best pitch??? Yes, I own Axford and Gallardo in a lot of leagues.

Good thing I also own Kershaw.

I’m a big spot starter, trying to avoid the big hitting teams with all but my best and throwing extra starts at the shitty offensive teams.

Who are y’all projecting to be the big offensive teams and conversely who can’t hit their way out of a paper bag?

But watching Kershaw v. Lincecum, knowing we passed on both and took Hochevar, really curbs the excitement of today. Like a whole bunch.

His production is great, but you never know when he’s going down for 60 games. Interestingly enough, one of the other managers in my league has guys like A-Gon and Votto on the trading block. I’d take either in a second, but he is not responding to messages of mine trying to feel out what he would want in a trade. He has hitting and plenty of great pitching.

So, given my roster, who would you offer up first in a trade (with Morneau) to gauge his interest without getting burned by giving up too much?
Mauer
Morneau
Uggla
Beltre
Furcal
Heyward
Swisher
Huff
Andres Torres
Gardner
Freddie Freeman

Chris Carpenter
Cole Hamels
Oswalt
Brian Wilson
Andrew Bailey
CJ Wilson
Jaime Garcia

I need to trade for as many Dodgers as possible and watch every game. He doesn’t travel outside of the NL West though if I remember correctly. Very sad, but at least I have Kemp on one team. And I will have Kershaw, i will!!!
