@Grey: Tell me about it. I've scoured the wire. Nada.

@RT: Yeah, I hope they go back to him too. Those are the Holds guys you're going with? Good luck. @Steve: Yeah, Torre ran every setup man the Yanks had into the ground. Somehow Rivera came out okay.

@Grey: Well, no damage done, I suppose. Except of course to a pitcher who was unavailable yesterday and has been worked pretty hard this season. Doesn't Torre have a bit of a rep for running relievers into the ground?

@Grey: No, but that choice will be my only bench player. Cincy seems to have quite the glut of players now. I'm hoping like hell they go back to Dickerson. Only good Holds guy available is Adams... maybe even Motte for the rest of the year.

@Steve: Why is Broxton in there? What's Torre thinking? Really frustrating. @RT: Well, Dickerson might be a couple of days, do you need one of these guys for tomorrow? @royce!: It's everyone's thing, man. Everyone.

Phew. What I thought.

Heard anything on when Dickerson is coming back?

Dogfight in my 18 team league for 1-3. I’m currently in seventh after being close to last in pretty much all pitching categories. I’ve been rolling with 14-16 pitchers for about two months now.

@Grey: Yeah, either he was talking about golf or I was thinking about it, 'cos I googled the phrase with "Juan Cruz" and it seems to have been never documented. So I guess that would have to be golf themed porn? Perhaps that's Scully's thing.

@RT: Drop Davis and Hairston.

RT — Wed, 10 Sep 2008 05:11:03 +0000

I need to pick-up a holds guy for the rest of the year and need to drop two of these three (try not to laugh at the names):

Hairston Jr. (he’s still on my DL)
Chris Dickerson
Crash Davis

Who would you rather have the rest of the year?

@royce!: I'm watching the Dodgers, but I didn't hear that. Great porn title though.

@Grey: Could you please do/say something to ensure that neither Kuo or Broxton get Kazam’d?

Now that my boy Ethier has ‘ruined’ a possible Save opp for me, that is.

‘Tis a game of conflicting emotions, this fantasy baseball…

@Grey: Seriously, how did you do that? I read your comment, looked up at the TV, and Scully said, “Well, the Giants won…”

Also, if anyone else was watching the Dodgers game, did Scully call Juan Cruz “the Graphite Shaft”? I must have misheard that.

@Grey: Dammit! I needed that save! Oh well, thanks for helping me figure out what 2 starter to use this week... So far it seems that Blackburn was definitely the right choice over Carmona, Sanchez, Miner or Petit. I think they combined for something like 70 ER over 1.2 IP. Rauch is in to earn Wilson a win! I could use that too! Everything's coming up royce!!

Grrrr. First my Bell gives up a couple and blows a Hold. Then – no Kuo.

Maybe he will come in and close it out? Broxton not available yesterday, apparently.

@wassup: It's hard to know who's the best spot starter when we don't know who's available. Millwood might be the best, but he's a unpredictable.

The Cubbie collapse has officially begun.

A little later than usual but expected nonetheless.

Go Brewers, cause my Cards ain’t gonna do it.

Now on to something I care about…………..Balkin Bob Davidson caught Marmol and the Cards are gonna beat the Cubs……………….

F-U Crisp and your batting average! This is why I suck in the RCL.
