@wakeNbake: Finally a conversation on this blog that MEANS something -- bongs. And where to buy them. I'd grab Tulo there, yup.

@Nick: Yeh I like em... their healthier because your just inhaling pure smoke, theres no type of rolling paper involved. I dont personally own one but I have friends who have em as well. Im more of a Vanilla Dutch or Glass Bong man myself but a good vaporizer ill never turn down...lol. Just a little FYI, if your ever looking to buy a bong... The company that make the best bongs in the world in my opinion is ROOR BONGS. They are pricey but well worth it, kinda like the Lamborghini of bongs, check em out. @Grey:Back to talkin FANTASY BASEBALL!! The owner of Tulo in my league is understandibly very low on him right now. He likes Chris Davis also. If I got him to trade me Tulo str8 up for Davis thats a move I gotta make right?

@Mike: For this year? Probably.

you really think Brett Myers in done Grey?

@Mike: I think Jenks gets back in less than two weeks. If you need saves really bad, I'd go with the hot hand. Right now it's Dotel or Thornton. I'd lean towards Dotel because he has experience.

By: Mike

Mike — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 03:32:15 +0000

Dotel got the save tonight for CWS…. does this make him the short term fovorite for saves?

@BSA: I'd hold tight or trade away a closer, though I'm not sure you'd be able to in a league where Saito was dropped.

If it matters my bench is chilly – Figgins, Bruce, Tulo.

Guess I missed the memo.

Not up on current lingo, I fried most of my brain cells in the 80′s. They’re just now starting to regenerate. Hopefully before alzheimers sets in.

mmm… vaporizer- the healthy alternative

By: BSA

BSA — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 01:08:07 +0000

Is it worth dropping a closer for CBuchholz? I have Paps, Rauch, Saito, Soria. Soria and Rauch were free agents while Saito was a waiver pick. My starters are Bedard, Cueto, Harden, Hudson, Lincecum, Shields.

@BigFatHippo: In the naughts, it's called a vaporizer.

By: BigFatHippo

BigFatHippo — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 00:56:05 +0000

No, he’s not interested in melting things. He’s got his own bunson burner and a blowtorch.

I read the thread when I got home, totally got buzzed from second hand typing. Is that even possible?

By: Grey

Grey — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 00:50:05 +0000

@BigFatHippo: Or melt it. But don't give WakenBake any ideas.

Yes, very fancy.

I particularly like the reflections of the skylights in your solar powered roof on the baseball.

If you put hold a magnifying glass over it you can probably blow it up.

BigFatHippo — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 00:37:23 +0000

Cool, great minds think alike.

At least you admit it.

Done

@BigFatHippo: Sorry, where were we? I was supervising the glove getting put on the other side of the site. Fancy, huh? Sorry, again, Hippo.

@BigFatHippo: Dude, I totally skimmed and missed Linebrink on the list. My bad. Yes, he's the one to drop.

By: BigFatHippo

BigFatHippo — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 00:20:43 +0000

Mulder injured his arm in the 1st inning and had to leave the game, drop immediately if you took a flyer on him.

@Grey

I was leaning towards Linebrink, Jenks will be back right after the break. Tampa hasn’t won since Wheeler’s bad outing so he hasn’t had a chance to pitch. Balfour blew it today for them, seems they were saving Wheeler for a lead.

What have you heard?

By: Grey

Grey — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 00:04:59 +0000

@BigFatHippo: Wheeler seems to be out of favor in Tampaland.

By: BigFatHippo

BigFatHippo — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 00:02:37 +0000

Fuck Harang and Phuck Phillies Phloundering offense when Hamels pitches.

Luckily I didn’t start Harang last night, took my 3 losses from Kaz, Bills, and Hamels.

@Grey

I need to drop a temp closer to activate Matsui’s anal fissure from the DL. Which one do I drop?

Kobayashi, Wheeler, Marte, Linebrink. Franklin has 12 saves so I’m holding and K-Rod is, well, K-Rod. Yes I’ve been hoarding closers to keep them from the other vultures in my league.

Hoarding closers, reminds me of when a lady walked into a bank carrying a bag of crumpled bills totalling $42,000. When the bank manager asked her “Did you hoard all that money by yourself?” she replied, “No, my sister whored half of it”

@Grey: “Aaron Harang – Fuck you.”

Aaron Harang says “Ow, my forearm hurts!”

News: MLB.com reports that Reds SP Aaron Harang was sent back to Cincinnati on Wednesday to undergo an MRI on his sore right forearm. Harang struggled on the mound during a 7-3 loss to the Cubs on Tuesday after that start was pushed back three days because of tightness in the forearm.

@Grey: Thats what I like to hear Grey!!
check out my lineup with this trade…howard,kinsler,aramis,rollins,markakis,grandy,crawford,berkman,chris davis…. my pitching is too shameful to list but check out that O baby!!

By: Grey

Grey — Wed, 09 Jul 2008 22:20:54 +0000

@Mike: I think that trade's fair with your side having a chance to come out way ahead. I see no way you lose that trade. If anything it'll just be a push.

By: Mike

Mike — Wed, 09 Jul 2008 22:17:56 +0000

Just accepted an offer where I received Grandy for Torii Hunter and Wainwright. Did I give up too much for Grandy?

By: Grey

Grey — Wed, 09 Jul 2008 21:56:32 +0000

@Mike: I'd cut McGowan.

By: Mike

Mike — Wed, 09 Jul 2008 21:53:36 +0000

OK so McGowan is officially on the DL….. my 2 DL spots are currently occupied with Chris Young and Wainwright. Cut Mcgowan or use a DL spot on him and cut one of the other 2?

@Grey: haha... I swear fantasy baseball drives me to smoke. I need to go take a break and clear my head if you get my drift. The answer to this question will mysteriously come to me I have a feeling.
