@Tony: Thanks Tony! I thought about trying to move Beckett instead but I need a big stick…. I’d love to keep a duo of Santana and Lincecum for years to come…. I just think that big stick would make me a serious contender for the money in my league. We’ll see…… I won’t let him go cheaply.

@Grey: My problem is I need average and power. So if I get Pedroia's avg I lose Alexei's power (I have enough OF to replace Vernon). It would all make sense to do, except an Alexei surge would help me more I think, although he may not even do that, and I dunno how easy it is to catch up in average.

@Lines: There's a thunder in your heart. Every move is like a lightning. It's the power you feel when you get your taste of the glory. @big o: wrt Andruw. I think you have to take a chance on a guy who is hitting, and in the lineup every day, over someone who is hitting, but not in the lineup. Mark Reynold's nickname of the day: DonkeyPod Nano.

Most of teams are lacking in average. I hate paying for avg, but I might have to soon. I’m drafting Pujols in every league I have a chance next year. Anybody have some targets for average? Pedroia, Suzuki, Mauer are just too expensive in trade talks. Anyone who I might be able to buy low on who should really turn things around avg wise?

@Grey: i still hate pedroia he’s such a little weasel, he’s like the napolean of pro baseball, and he’s a red sock, ughhh, shoot me in the face before i draft that balding little bastard…

I know its fantasy and i shouldnt care who he is, but i do, and i dont like him…. there i said it!

@ETmcgee: if you just jinxed adam , i'll be coming after you . @Paulie Allnuts: the answer to the metropolitans' HOF battery-mates is spahn/berra . to all : reminder ===> holliday will be a met on july 9th .... MAYbe july 13th , when the A's make their east-coast swing . make your trade plans accordingly . also ..... am i the only one dumb enough to think that peavy's going to end up with atlanta ??

@Tony: It's actually very close, but I just assume Vernon is replaceable.

@ETmcgee: Yeah, Bruce could be an average killer, but I tend to ignore that, probably why I own Reynolds on every single team.

@big o: I'd want Hairston there too. @Elbert: Hermida's consistently yawnstipating, I don't think you'll miss him. @Doc: Rivera @bpasinko: I'd take Pedroia there.

By: Tony

Tony — Fri, 22 May 2009 18:03:39 +0000

@The Dude: yeah i just know they’re gonna be a team looking…. especially for offense.

I dont know where he’d go, but i hope he does get moved, going to the A’s was a horrible horrible move for matt…. and my fantasy team!

@Grey: i know you don't have any issues with Jones, just would like to see more love. he's one of those guys i targeted this year (got him in 2 of 3, thinking about offering Lady sizemore as part of a deal to get him in the other), so I was actually right about someone for once and probably just want to see more love b/c of that. I do think jones will out produce bruce this year, though it may be my personal bias against avg killers, but it will be close.

@bpasinko: too much for pedroia...IMO I think alexie is about 1-2 weeks from flipping the switch, he likes the warm weather, he's cuban.

@Tony: Beane won't trade Holliday to the Angel's unless he can get a ridiculous return for him; he's got a policy about helping his division rivals.

Here is one of the many drawbacks of having so many teams: I just saw that someone picked up Reynolds in one of my leagues! Wha? How did I miss him? Hey Wha’ Happened? I’m trying to do my woork!

I trade Vernon and Alexei, I get Pedroia?

Anyone getting supremely worried about Alexei yet?

J. Rivera or Sheffield?

@NoonTime: Must be a REALLY slow day at work! But nice job.
Interesting that Le Atelier de Joel Pinero, top team in the RCL, in the strongerst league of the RCL, is not represented in any of the Cats. The dominance of the team is unbelievable. JP is either 11th or 12th in EVERY CAT except for SB, where it is a lowly 4.5. JP has a total score of 109, with 120 being perfection.

@ETmcgee: At the end of April I said "3-for-4, HR and 1st steal of the year. The steals will come and the power will continue. He’s not a sell candidate, unless you’re against Prop 420." Maybe I could push him a little more, but he's been great and will continue to be solid. I don't know if he beats Bruce by the end of the year in numbers though. Jones won't bat anywhere near .360 on the year. Probably closer to .290. Anyway, good to have you commenting. @rich: Cool, still want Hanley side. @Mr. Rickey: Not yet, hopefully he starts producing. Capps.

Any concerns about Corey Hart’s playing time? Also, Capps or Cruz next week?
