(I guess it kind of helps if you’re in some wacky shallow league and closers with jobs are on the waiver wire. But then you’re a fag who can’t even find at least 11 other fags to play fantasy baseball with, so you’re stuck with 9 other fags who have nothing better to do. WELL DONE.)

But what IF? What if we applied some method of assessing risk of real-world trade to the list at this point of the season? Nothing fancy. You wouldn’t have to hijack some BP or Fangraphs jerkenstein to script you an algorithm. Take it easy, man, it’s cool.

If we did, wouldn’t the Street become a Brain Freeze? Sherrill too? And also etc?

I’m just saying, that might help people decide who to deal out of their Closer stash and cache, and who to be wary of acquiring.

Then again, this site earns no revenue (so American contemporary, we broke yo!) and I’m up at 2:20 AM writing this. Whatever.

Possibly I need to stop expecting him to win every time out

May your wins hold up!

I only have him in H2H so while the Ks and WHIP are great, it’s always disappointing when the Win slips away.

And the pitcher scored off him!

Follow-up question: Why does having approval of a stranger before making a roster move in a game I play for fun make me feel so much better?

i may flick away for a bit (especially if street’s closing) , but it would be nice to have a late game / late night gathering place .

also , this is dumb …. but , tony pena or chris perez ??? saves only .

and this is dumber (??) … i need to drop a guy , so i can put in a waiver claim …. for milton (<== not the pitcher) .

go A 's .

p.s. i really like that "go , cubs , go" song the fans chant in wrigley , after they win a game ….. sometimes i sing it in the pit (at work) , just to break up the monotony .
yankees and sawx fans here in ct sometimes question my allegiance .
screw them .

thanking you , in advance .

@Mr Baseball: Sanchez had some of the most powerful bunts you’ll ever see.

Alex Sanchez – That’s how he got the 1 HR a year..

@Steve: Murph!

@Tom_Emanski: Hehe, that term’s pretty good. I was thinking that when Frank Francisco gave up his first runs of the year the other night. I was like, “First runs? Why isn’t this guy closing?”

@Lines: Ha, nice story. I just check Yahoo or ESPN right before the games to see who’s starting. Dropping Baker.

@Corey: My bad, must’ve missed it. Cahill walks people, doesn’t K that many, is very young. Butler was a good prospect and is still getting better. Plus, when it’s close, hitter over pitcher. They’re just easier to predict. Mind you, neither are great.

@big o: I like that idea of game night. Maybe an ESPN game since everyone gets it.

@royce!: Ha!

@jbatkins: I’d take the Johan side by a slight margin. Close though.

@Commish Cauda (formerly Mike): I’d take the DeRosa side, but it’s close.

So, after that long-winded answer… no.

I’m still trying to trade for a 2B (currently Kaz Matsui)

Trade Nelson Cruz & Leo Nunez FOR DeRosa & Ludwick?

I would then trade youk for alexei ramirez and possibly gavin floyd?

would u make that 3 way trade? currently have everth cabrera at SS

The guy taking youk is looking for depth instead of one stud SP and hes opposed to cincy SPs…..

Thank you…
