@Dominic: Completely understandable.

Was talking with a Razzball friend the other day, discussing the fact that you do great work and perhaps do not get the credit from us commenters that you should. Thanks for the valuable info.

Is Desmond Jennings ever going to get the call up to the Bigs?

@BlinkULDHC: re:Padre Prospects for Gonzalez: Don’t speak too soon.

@thorbs: re:Blackmon: .260 to .275 average with 10 to 15 hr and 20 to 25 steals over a full season. re:Castro: I haven’t heard much.

@EK: Lester

@Dominic: No, do you have other options?
@Dominic: re: Chisenhall/Moustakas for M. Reynolds: Moustakas if called up.

43 R
14 HR
55 RBI
10 SB
.318 AVG

Kemp and Pujols leading the way, Andrus and Walker throwing in solid numbers as well.

What are your thoughts on Charles Blackmon if Fowler goes on the DL and he’s called up?

Also…what the flip is going on with Simon Castro this year?

Just wanted to amend my previous statement of my 15 SB holding the record. A dude in my 12-team league just broke the record with 17.

Jeez.

Bourne had more SB by himself (7) than nine of the other teams.

Wow! 18 HRs in a 16-team league is just awesome. 22HRs is an epic total too, but I’ve seen some insanely stacked 10-team-league teams.

Maybe by 17 HRs isn’t as impressive as the 53 RBI, I don’t know. Either way, I’ll be lucky to get out of the week 6-4 or even 5-5 — although I’m trailing in BA, WHIP, ERA, which are the easiest categories to re-take leads in.

Even to this day, I have to listen to all the gripes about trading away Adrian Gonzalez… and it’s even more frustrating to fully explain just how much the Padres got in return for trading AGon’s 60-70 games of services as a ’11 Padre. Seriously, that trade is starting to look like a large-scale heist.

And Pad fans still don’t like it.

I’m in the minority of SD fans who were stoked about getting SP Casey Kelly (who’s probably on the cusp of elite pitching prospects; he was actually the crown jewel of the AGon trade).

Oh, what’s that, Anthony Rizzo too? He’s only the second coming of Adrian Gonzalez.

How about a side of Reymond Fuentes? He’s barely 20-years old and hitting .297 with 23 SB in 51 games, and should be able to roam Petco’s OF like a puma. Let’s just top it off with an actual MLB’er in Eric Patterson.

Sometimes, I just wish I lived in a sports city like Cleveland. Kidding.

A couple of years ago I saw 22 HR in a 10-team league.

And this year, I was the unfortunate opponent a guy who had 18 HR in a 16-team league (he owned Bautista and had Beltran for his 3-homer game).

Also, in a 12-team league, my buddy had 16 HR this week, thanks in part to 6(!) today.

55 runs and 56 RBI are the highest I’ve seen as well.

And 15 SB has been my highest (and highest of the year so far).

What is the highest total of HRs you’ve seen a fantasy baseball team hit in one week of play (and/or what are the craziest offensive #’s you’ve ever seen)?

I’m in a 12-team, mixed, 5×5 league with all 8 hitting positions + 2 DH.

This is NOT gloating at all — since I’m losing 4-6 this week — but my lineup is hitting .329, 43 runs, 17 HRs, 53 RBI, 5 SB. (thanks to Pujols, Espinosa, Bruce, Kemp, and Stanton).

I’ve only been playing H2H for I think 4-5 years, so I’m not sure if these numbers are not uncommon every now and then. I’m sure back in 1998-2003 there were some insane one-week numbers, like Sosa and Bonds hitting 6 HRs in a week, and fantasy teams hitting like .393-24-72 in one week…. But I feel like 17 HRs in 6.5 days is pretty high these days.

Whatcha think? Show me your numbers — I’d like to hear about others.

Would you trade C. Utley / J. Bruce for C. Lee / C. Gonzalez? I really need another SP and I have K. Johnson to fill in at 2B. Thanks.

@Giant JJ: Alonso, Allen, Kirk …

@Oilcan Guisppe: Rizzo; Moustakas doesn’t walk nearly as much.

@Big Mike: I thought about listing Montero, but I don’t really think the Yankees are going to rush him up. He has a few to many strikeouts, not enough walks and his gap power is ploping in singles. Moustakas over Chisenhall, but Chisenhall over Montero due to timing of call ups.

@Trick dad: Goldschmidt.

@AL KOHOLIC: It’s June, but everyone seems hesitant to call up their prospects. As for Goldschmidt, September. Brandon Allen will get the call-up(s) first.

@Clyde Prompto: Thank you for the kind words. I like Kyle Gibson from that last the most; that’s my unbiased opinion even as a Twins fan.

@AL KOHOLIC: Thank you for the compliment.

@K!cks: Lawrie

@Black Beard: I’d rather stash Moustakas due to position. I like Jennings for his steals though.

@Ralph: It’s fair.

I was just offered king felix for jay bruce. I am in need of pitching. What do you think?

Thanks!
