Chris Davis gone trying to fill hole at third. I have McGehee, but Beckham, Encarnacion, Blalock are all on the wire

5×5 Keeper league and sitting at the bottom.

nothing for nothing .
everybody and his brother is talking about the positive influence manny is going to have on the entire dodger line-up …(and in particular , ethier) .

more of an impact (imo) will be felt by josh hamilton’s return to arlington .
the rangers have been sucking air and losing ground to the angels , lately .
prepare yourselves for an up-tick .

@Bob: Oh. Then go with Harang. @big o: That trade's not worth a comment.

@big o: Your comments regarding teams in red a bigger hit. What's with the Mariners with red caps?!?

@Grey: It’s a 12 team mid-season Yahoo league. For some reason, Harang and Liriano are on the waiver wire. I currently have Slowey.

@Steve: First round hitter. Pujols is probably out of the question. Probably more like Kinsler, Howard or Wright.

question for the crowd ===> if you guys receive a trade offer “without comment” , do you reject , without comment , or do you actually tell the guy “why” you’re rejecting his offer ?

it’s probably just me , but , if you guy’s ain’t talking , then i ain’t responding .

@Clay Dalrymple: I'd take the Manny side. @Steve: Sorry, what's who worth? @Mr Baseball: The backstop. @MikeE: Melky @Robert: You don't need that many starters. @Bob: Harang, but I wouldn't drop the other two unless this is an 8 team league.

@Simply Fred:
thanks for the heads-up (comment #172)
currently i lack the technology to reference that specific forum article .
would appreciate more specific directions .

haven’t had the time to keep up with forum topics , pretty much since they were re-vamped .
can’t fathom how grey keeps up .

Permit me to amend: Slowey, Liriano or Harang?

By: Bob

Bob — Mon, 06 Jul 2009 04:59:08 +0000

Slowey or Liriano now that Slowey is on the DL.

@Doc: Thought you might appreciate the positive reference (given some characterizations of you as 'Dr. Doom')!

@Steve: Might have got a little excited there. Is he worth Hamilton?

By: Doc

Doc — Mon, 06 Jul 2009 04:01:58 +0000

@matthole: He should come off the DL tomorrow so I'm pretty sure he'll be in the lineup.

In a H2H 10 team league, is it a waste to carry 8 SPs? I have : Wainwright, Nolasco, Vazquez, Lackey, Hanson, Kazmir, Liriano, Price.

By: Simply Fred

Simply Fred — Mon, 06 Jul 2009 03:57:21 +0000

@Doc: Thanks. I'm going to roster him this week. I'll accept the risk.

@ Doc…..do you know when A-ram is returning to the lineup? thanks…

@Simply Fred: I've read that he is just a day or two away. Nothing confirmed though.

@Doc: Doc, if you get a chance read the Lords of Razzball posted in forums today. There is a reference to you that you might find fun.
