wait i lost my unfair 1st pick and 1st claim due to the odd numbeer of rounds haha

i was not messing with anyone at draft, sat there for a minute waiting for it to start thinking i was 15th, never seen yahoo rejigger at the bell like that.

i love this from the "recent transactions" box:
Waiver Priority changed from 'old order' to 'new order'

YOU HEAR THAT? THERE'S A NEW FUCKING ORDER 'ROUND HEAH!

oh, you've got green eyes oh, you've got blue eyes oh, you've got grey eyes

so i took the 2011 projections from Fangraphs for my team and shuffled it into the 2010 stats/standings to see where i'd wind up. somewhere between 3rd and 5th, apparently! 4th worst home runs totals tho :s

got electrolytes (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Tuesday, 15 March 2011 19:49 (fifteen years ago)

counting stat projections are basically BS though

ciderpress, Tuesday, 15 March 2011 20:02 (fifteen years ago)

at least for lineup dependent ones like R and RBI i mean

ciderpress, Tuesday, 15 March 2011 20:03 (fifteen years ago)

it was all pretty much bs. i fully admit this.

i like the cut of your jib

sanskrit, Wednesday, 16 March 2011 14:12 (fifteen years ago)

yes - first place is now officially up for grabs!

got electrolytes (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Wednesday, 16 March 2011 14:22 (fifteen years ago)

I did it!

so you guys were right. Berkman was still out there waiting for me!

got electrolytes (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Thursday, 24 March 2011 14:46 (fifteen years ago)

...and i failed to pull the trigger on bedard. bah!

now i have to be the bitter guy that says, "enjoy all 5 starts you get out of him."

...and he'll get 28 just to spite me.

j.q higgins, Thursday, 24 March 2011 15:55 (fifteen years ago)

Bedard and Davis were good pickups i saw on our transaction-o-meter.

man, Drew Stubbs is kicking ASS this spring!

(42 at-bats, 20 strikeouts, two walks)

larry buttz (Z S), Thursday, 24 March 2011 23:42 (fifteen years ago)

spring

42 at-bats

ciderpress, Friday, 25 March 2011 00:45 (fifteen years ago)

i don't care what the context is - that's an awe aspiring strikeout total!

got electrolytes (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Friday, 25 March 2011 01:43 (fifteen years ago)

I would've given you something for Ackley for what it's worth.

reggaeton for the painfully alone (polyphonic), Friday, 25 March 2011 06:23 (fifteen years ago)

damn. sorry. out of curiosity - what?

got electrolytes (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Friday, 25 March 2011 13:54 (fifteen years ago)

looking at yr bench, tbh, i don't think there's anything i would have been after. just wanted a power bat to help offset the damage Figgins is going to do to my slg.

got electrolytes (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Friday, 25 March 2011 13:58 (fifteen years ago)

denard dawg got recycled

sanskrit, Friday, 25 March 2011 16:31 (fifteen years ago)

I'm not sure who I would've given, but it's a bummer to see a keeperable guy like that hit the waiver wire.

reggaeton for the painfully alone (polyphonic), Friday, 25 March 2011 21:03 (fifteen years ago)

josh thole's cup of coffee only lasted 5 minutes.. :(

sanskrit, Saturday, 26 March 2011 11:54 (fifteen years ago)

Span, I think, was one of the late-round auto-picks made after my daughter turned off the computer.

Maybe I should have asked a fantasy expert about which OF to release between Span, McCutchen, Ordonez, Guerrero, Willingham, Manny.

When I made the cut, I had two RPs.

Andy K, Saturday, 26 March 2011 12:02 (fifteen years ago)

I'm a fantasy expert, you should have traded McCutchen to me for Clay Hensley

larry buttz (Z S), Saturday, 26 March 2011 12:34 (fifteen years ago)

Whats the rules on the dl? Can we add players without dropping if we got dudes on the dl?

strongly recommend. unless you're a bitch (mayor jingleberries), Thursday, 31 March 2011 17:34 (fifteen years ago)

Heyward! :D

got electrolytes (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Thursday, 31 March 2011 17:36 (fifteen years ago)

leading MLB in home runs

strongly recommend. unless you're a bitch (mayor jingleberries), Thursday, 31 March 2011 17:45 (fifteen years ago)

Anyone want a first baseman? I'm looking for a pitcher in return (preferably starting)

francisF, Thursday, 31 March 2011 21:02 (fifteen years ago)

D. Lee, Kila, or Gaby Sanchez (Youk's my 3B)

francisF, Thursday, 31 March 2011 21:04 (fifteen years ago)

id like a closer if any1 has a surplus

johnny crunch, Thursday, 31 March 2011 21:07 (fifteen years ago)

Im sure someone might trade you an axford and his 54 era

strongly recommend. unless you're a bitch (mayor jingleberries), Thursday, 31 March 2011 21:30 (fifteen years ago)

haha, yeah i watched that 9th inning go down, wow

francisF, Thursday, 31 March 2011 22:00 (fifteen years ago)

Oh, and I have Lind on offer (OF/1B) as well

francisF, Thursday, 31 March 2011 22:06 (fifteen years ago)

im gonna savor this as probably the only time im in 1st place all season

johnny crunch, Friday, 1 April 2011 21:45 (fifteen years ago)

oh - btw. DL works exactly the same as last year and the year before and the year etc etc.

got electrolytes (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Friday, 1 April 2011 21:49 (fifteen years ago)

My good pitch no hit team is living up to its billing already and we're only part way through Day #2. I guess I should give it a couple of weeks before doing anything crazy though.

NoTimeBeforeTime, Friday, 1 April 2011 21:54 (fifteen years ago)

i will now do the same as johnny today.

got electrolytes (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Saturday, 2 April 2011 14:43 (fifteen years ago)

Thanks to Carlos Quentin for making yesterday so special. No thanks to David Price and Ubaldo being juuuust mediocre enough to not give me a points bonanza..

strongly recommend. unless you're a bitch (mayor jingleberries), Saturday, 2 April 2011 16:13 (fifteen years ago)

Ah, good old 12th place.

Esteban Buttezface (Leee), Saturday, 2 April 2011 18:05 (fifteen years ago)

Jésus, the front-end of my rotation is so incredibly buttsy (9.72 ERA, 1.62 WHIP) while my heh heh back-end is throwing up goose-eggs (yeah yeah first day statistical vomit/jinxing caveats etc.).

farting in the shower - C/D (Leee), Sunday, 3 April 2011 18:24 (fifteen years ago)

i quite enjoyed yesterday's 1.200 slugging from elvis andrus

J0rdan S., Sunday, 3 April 2011 18:25 (fifteen years ago)

Having missed out on Howie Kendrick's 2-HR day, it comes down to young Brandon Belt to pick up the slack. Swing for the fences, young man!

farting in the shower - C/D (Leee), Sunday, 3 April 2011 23:17 (fifteen years ago)

i was feeling really good about today after miguel cabrera was 2/2 with 2 homers... then my OF & util went 0/15

J0rdan S., Sunday, 3 April 2011 23:33 (fifteen years ago)

some dude in my other league just collected 8 hrs today!

got electrolytes (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Monday, 4 April 2011 04:16 (fifteen years ago)

Classic second-guess, but...shouldn't Lind be taking the first pitch during the 9th yesterday, after Nathan's just walked two guys in a row? Anyway, it's a good feeling to care enough to even bother watching. That hasn't been true for a long time with me.

clemenza, Monday, 4 April 2011 14:47 (fifteen years ago)

I KNOW! that's what i was saying. Nathin was obv having some control issues - way swing at the first thing you see?!

aside from that - E5's continued presence at third continues to baffle/enrage.

got electrolytes (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Monday, 4 April 2011 15:31 (fifteen years ago)

ooops - this should probably be on the J's thread.

got electrolytes (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Monday, 4 April 2011 15:32 (fifteen years ago)

Thermo does that other dude in your fantasy league own all the of players on the texas rangers?

strongly recommend. unless you're a bitch (mayor jingleberries), Monday, 4 April 2011 16:37 (fifteen years ago)

lol - just Napoli.

got electrolytes (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Monday, 4 April 2011 16:59 (fifteen years ago)

Sorry--my Lind post above was meant for the Jays page. I probably saw Thermo's name and thought that's where I was.
