@Grey: need to start two of the these three (need runs, rbi and sbs in that order).

kel-jo (3 @ sd, 3 @ sf)
eyj (3 vs atl, 3 vs la)

thanks.

@Steve: Yeah, I had a nice pitching day and a nice hitting day. Weird how none of my hitters met my pitchers. @Wilsonian: No worries. @Awesomus Maximus: Dah! @d2bnz: Agree with Eddy, go with your studs.

@d2bnz: You gotta go with CarGo and Krispie there. CarGo has a bad knee but nothing is wrong with his swing. Krispie has been great and is known to serve Slam and Legs very often. This late into the season, when someone even has remote questions about playing time, I wouldn't go near them. Especially if you're in th playoff hunt. Not to mention Kalish got his first hit since August 17th today. Not exactly encouraging.

@Grey: Damn... ended up biting me in the ass, after all. Opponent just barely squeaked under me in WHIP. Could have used that Hi Me start. Oh well... who knew Marcum was only gonna' give up 4 baserunners in 7 IP at Fenway?

@Grey: haha...good point. Much obliged for the advice.

I know I’m normally moaning about my team(s) here, so just for a change I’d like to report a 36.1 IP, 43 K, 0.99 ERA, 0.96 WHIP, 4 W day for my H2H team.

We shall never see its like again…

@Bill Lumbergh: Yup @Eddy: Yup @Wilsonian: I think you have Morgan and you shouldn't have Torres.

By: Wilsonian

Wilsonian — Mon, 23 Aug 2010 02:44:21 +0000

@Grey: thanks man. Does that mean you’re thinking Torres loses some PT and that Minor is going to stick it out in the rotation?

By: Eddy

@Grey: Forgot to mention one player earlier in the weekly OPS league. You chose Bruce. If Markakis were sill in the mix would you still go Bruce?

Just traded my Haren for his Gallardo in a 12 team H2H keeper. Did I do ok? Thanks for the $.02!

@Grey: Ha - sorry! Wasn't actually being sarcastic (shocker!). That's exactly what picking up some players is like.

By: Grey

Grey — Mon, 23 Aug 2010 02:35:28 +0000

@Steve: And it got so much better when I described it further! @Wilsonian: I'd drop Torres for Minor. @big o: Blackburn @Wilsonian: Desmond, Asdrubal, Castro...No problem.

By: Wilsonian

Wilsonian — Mon, 23 Aug 2010 02:16:25 +0000

One last question for the night. Rank these SSs please:

A. Gonzalez, Desmond, Asdrubal, Castro, Betancourt, Drew

Many thanks, yet again…

@Grey: who's starting for minn @ texas , tomorrow ? cbs & yahoo say it's liriano @ harden . mlb says it's blackburn .

By: Wilsonian

Wilsonian — Mon, 23 Aug 2010 01:57:36 +0000

@Wilsonian: my OF is Hamilton, Lind, Hunter, Torres, Nyjer, Pat the Bat, FYI.

By: Wilsonian

Wilsonian — Mon, 23 Aug 2010 01:39:43 +0000

16 Team H2H Keeper. With all this shizz going on in the SF outfield, would either Pat or Torres be worth a drop for Chacin or Minor? I could use another arm down the stretch.

By: Steve

Steve — Mon, 23 Aug 2010 01:17:25 +0000

@Grey: Yeah. That sounds like a fantasy baseball parable.

By: Grey

Grey — Mon, 23 Aug 2010 01:12:11 +0000

@Steve: Yeah, I haven't watched in like ten years, but I think there was an episode (part of an episode?) where Homer was testing electric shock aversion with a donut and he just kept grabbing it.

@Mr2Bits: Gotta say I don't feel like I'm exactly getting an upgrade with Guti, but if the doode's getting Saves...

@Steve: I'm right there with you. Heilman clearly isn't closing anymore and I don;t need garbage middle relief. If the damn Reds could have stopped striking out I would have taking K's easily this week. Guess I can't complain about a 9-0 win.

@Steve: that wouldn't be quite so funny , if i hadn't had my own issues with oliver perez . (4 months clean) .

@Grey: Mmmmmm, SAGNOF. Not a huge Simpsons fan, to be honest. Like it, just not a religious watcher.

By: Grey

Grey — Mon, 23 Aug 2010 00:26:59 +0000

@Steve: You're like Homer when he's getting buzzed instead of getting a donut (or was it beer?).

By: Steve

Steve — Mon, 23 Aug 2010 00:21:51 +0000

Despite knowing exactly how it will end, I’ve just picked up Juan Gutierrez.

AGAIN.

@Gambler: Bailey

@Gambler: Sarcastic non-answer - "Bad day to ask that question." Torre's answer, "Bailey"

Who do you prefer for rest of the year: Broxton or Andrew Bailey?

@Steve:
@Grey: Even more annoying.
