@Grey: Ha! So true, except there are no winners at the end of Thelma & Louise... aside from the audience full of NOW members, of course.

@Grey: Durrrrrr haha. Yeah non-keeper.

By: Grey

Grey — Mon, 20 Sep 2010 16:38:16 +0000

@timSTi: Lose Hamilton in a non-keeper. @nutsadamus: Sit Gardner, if you don't need steals. Sit Guillen otherwise.

Made it to the finals of my H2H league! Having a tough time deciding who to slot in my final week between these guys…

Guillen, Stubbs, Raburn, Wells, Gardner, or Murphy, I need to sit one of em,

Who’s the odd man out?

Thanks for the help!

In the finals in my h2h league this week. Have my bench filled with injuries: Hamilton, RobotJones, HanRam.

Any of them droppable for a hot bat?

Hamilton probably wont be back this week but I just hate to let him go. My opponent has a higher waiver priority than me.

@Awesomus Maximus: Sounds like the fantasy baseball equivalent ending to Thelma & Louise.

@Grey: Actually, the guy I'm matched up with is my oldest and closest friend. We just talked and decided to put in our best players today and then make no moves or roster changes... see what happens. Could be a fun way to end the season.

@Griff: Hehe @Wilsonian: Ah... Then go with Stubbs. @slam: No problem. @Black Beard: Damn... Bell... @Jeff: Pudge...

I’m in a battle for 2nd place.

The guy 2 pts behind me is only 4 RBI’s behind me, and is now 1 save ahead of me. My pitching has been killing me lately (dropped in ERA and WHIP)

I have Rivera, Cordero, and Rodney as my closers.

I also just lost Soto for the year and have no other catchers on my roster.

I have 1 FA pickup left for the year. Do I use it on a catcher or RP?

Best available RP’s Gutierrez, Hensley, Takahashi.

Best available C’s – Pudge, Pena (KC)

I realize it’s saves and therefor a crapshoot…but saves this week, Bell or Feliz?

F-Me. Felix Hernandez might not make all of his remaining starts:

Wow, AJ, I feel like I’m selling my soul a bit as a twins fan, but let’s do this shit.

Thanks man.

@Grey: opponent in the finals has Pierre, Gardner, McCutchen, Reyes, so it looks like I might need a spare steal or two...

By: Griff

Griff — Mon, 20 Sep 2010 15:53:04 +0000

Picked up Coke. Could suffer some “blow”-back to my ERA. <—- If Yahoo weren't family friendly, Brad Evans would have made that pun.

@sean: The Yanks are playing the Rays and the Sox for the pennant this week. I think they rested him this weekend specifically because of that. He'd been playing hurt for a few weeks, so it's not like they'll suddenly bench him for the biggest series of the year.

By: Grey

Grey — Mon, 20 Sep 2010 15:48:43 +0000

@Fresh: You just asked me this. @peter: Yup @Back to Minors: Yeah, he'll probably pitch well vs. the Yanks and get hit vs. the M's. @Wilsonian: You have enough steals.

By: Wilsonian

Wilsonian — Mon, 20 Sep 2010 15:44:44 +0000

@Grey: well I just had to lose Bourn because of the oblique thing, and picked up Ibanez for the short day today. So my base stealers are Victorino and well, Victorino. I also have CarGo, Utley, Longo, Wright, Kemp, Holiday, who occasionaly get steals. I would think Stubbs might be the better option than Ibanez, based on that need.

@Grey: daily. leaning towards benching him, but just saw his career stats @ Yankee Stadium (only 2 games) .75era, 1.00 whip. hmmm touch decision, he has sucked recently...

peter — Mon, 20 Sep 2010 15:37:39 +0000

Yup, in separate h2h playoffs, I grabbed Blanton for a W and Narveson for Ks.
