But every time Lincecum takes the mound it rears its ugly head! Somehow it manages to remain tame when the Mariners take the field…

@sam: Yeah, they should put him and Corey Hart on a slow boat to China.

@Martin: Hehe

Best of his career. Now not only does the d train trade look bad but for the first time in baseball if he doesnt become a stud, people can ask “what may have been” with his talent. Pun

Being born in the same town as Lincecum, I like this idea, b/c it promotes Northwest exceptionalism.

I think the real exciting thing will be for keeper leagues, if the Marlins go with him next year.

That is interesting.

EDIT: Typo, boyz!

Interesting fact re: Maybin- had his first hit, homer, stolen base, and HBP all against Clemens. Not interesting for fantasy purposes, but still.

@Shogun: I don’t think dropping Ludwick is too reactionary. I’m benching him in one league for CarGo.

re: Aviles – Yeah, he’s been money.

@royce!: I’m going with Kershaw in a few leagues for next week. Fo’shaw!

@Shogun: I’d go with Johnson over Kazmir. The Rays will be thinking about the playoffs next week.

re: that pic — I wish they had the Chicken in panties too.

@cubbies299: I’d rank them — Crawf, Kaz, Harang, Tulo, Krispy, Gallardo (health is a big issue, but he’s supposed to be back any day now), Pence, Shoppach, Capps, Marmol (if he gets the closer job, this changes), Dukes.

@Steve: Nice on Teahen.

Gary Coleman’s making headlines in NZ? Is he a big celebrity there still? Also, weren’t we just talking about bowling? Ha!

@royce!: Papelbon thing is great.

@BigFatHippo: Do they not Amazon.com in The Bootheel?

***If I missed anyone, just repost your question. Word.

They did have some interesting tomes on frog-gigging and how to build monster trucks.

My above 100 guys of interest right now are Crawf, Kazmir, Harang, Tulo, Gallardo, Marmol (it’s a holds league), Capps (bounceback?), Pence, Shoppach, Dukes, and Krispy (I don’t know why I love him so much, as he’s done nothing but spurn me… but my mancrush forces me to include him in this sentence). I’m ranking them Crawf, Kaz, Harang, Tulo, Shoppach, Gallardo, Capps, Pence, Krispy, Marmol, Dukes. I think going by Y! ranks is stupid stupid, but I feel like with Kaz and Crawf above 100, they probably benefit me the most.
