The Roth Army Fantasy Baseball League

[POJO_Risin]

I don't know...I've been back and forth on that all year...

I've got a stacked team if we decide to do a keeper...

but I'm assuming we are losing some teams and it's a pain in the ass to hold 20 fucking drafts...lmfao...

plus...wouldn't YOU rather have a shot at fresh players?

[Guitar Shark]

It doesn't matter to me either way, I agree it's a pain when people drop out.

[Va Beach VH Fan]

Too much turnover fellas, not gonna be worth it...

[POJO_Risin]

Plus there's a couple I don't want back...lmfao...

[DlocRoth]

Congrats VA...fucker...lmfao

I actually thought I was gonna win it the whole thing.

I won something like 13 out of my last 14 matchups....

Ah well...back to my fucked up football team. LOL

Hehehehe.....

Well, gotta put it together one more week against that bastard Wrning....

[Fairwrning]

2 more weeks bro..2 more weeks..and I , as the Roth Army Recruit that has won NO fantasy titles in 5 years..close..but NO titles,should be the sentimental favorite:D

GREAT GAME Pojo...til the end..that was anybodys baby last week

[Fairwrning]

I mean..seriously..does anybody want to see Va. win both the Football AND Baseball titles back-to-back..I know I don't;)

[DlocRoth]

Well..as the last back to backer in the house,(football and basketball) I sure as hell don't. ;)

[Fairwrning]

I will count that as a vote for me:D

Damn, that's 2 years in a row that I've forgotten the finals go 2 weeks, I did the same thing against RBW last year....

[Fairwrning]

Damn..this is gonna go to the wire...too close to call...

[Va Beach VH Fan]

Benson got fucking rocked tonight by the Yanks bro....

I don't think he lasted 3 innings....

[Va Beach VH Fan]

Benson got fucking rocked tonight by the Yanks bro....

I don't think he lasted 3 innings....

[Fairwrning]

Fuck you

[Fairwrning]

Robertson did too ..I almost benched Benson..but somethin just told me to start him..that may hurt..I coulda coasted and just gave up the K stat for the game..but I probably just blew ERA and WHIP...guess I gotta go after K's and a CG now...

[Fairwrning]

just kiddin with the fuck you bro..Ill get my CG from Harden on Sunday to clinch this thing;)

[Va Beach VH Fan]

Shit, almost had a CG shutout from Oswalt this afternoon....

But they pulled him after 7 with the Astros up 3-0 over the Buccos...

That team is smoking....

[POJO_Risin]

What is that...9 in a row?

that dinger by Pujols last night might be the only thing that saves them for the playoffs...

to bad...because Houston is twice the team...

[POJO_Risin]

How the hell have none of you pick of Buttfuck Bonser?

HE'S ON FUCKING FIRE!!!

[Fairwrning]

Pitching is starting to kill me...my boys have been getting rocked lately...Delgado back in the lineup is good tho..

[Fairwrning]

I can fuckin smell it man!!!!;)

[POJO_Risin]

Quit eating Mexican than...

And Kenny Rogers got rocked today....

Delgado helped you out early though....

Absolutely too close to call....

[Fairwrning]

Half my team decided to sit last night..fuckers..I think you are gonna pull this out Va...good game..well earned

[Va Beach VH Fan]

Oh hell no, WAY too early for that.....

Two more full days to go....

[POJO_Risin]

Va...who won the hockey league last year?

[Va Beach VH Fan]

The guy who's never watched a fucking hockey game in his life, naturally....

WARFypoo....

I think I won 3 years ago, before the lockout...

[POJO_Risin]

I was just curious if you winning this league would have put you on a 3 series win streak...

[Va Beach VH Fan]

Well, if I pull this one out, which is far from over, then win this year's hockey league, I guess that would do it as well.... :D

[POJO_Risin]

Well...I had a run of 4...

baseball...football...hoops...baseball...

then DLoc won the next 2...

Just call me Don Shula...looking out for my streak...;)

[POJO_Risin]

I didn't look to see how close you are...

but I know I'm up 7-4...but literally every stat category but about 2 are up for grabs...

1 or 2...

it's been a fun week...

I wonder how our stats compare to yours...

[Va Beach VH Fan]

Oh man, down to the last day...

And it's ANYBODY'S BALLGAME....

Good luck Wrning, you bastard.... ;)

[POJO_Risin]

D's Egg and I are having a collosal matchup...

I was up 7-4 yesterday...

Now I'm up 6-5 today...

but the categories have all fucking swapped...lmfao...

should be an interesting last day for all...

[POJO_Risin]

Wow Va...batting average by a point...I think you are up...

which means...it's a Teddy Williams day...

Average takes all...

unless a team explodes...

[Va Beach VH Fan]

Well, just about all of the categories are cunthair close...

WHIP may be another swing category....

It may also make a difference which starters take today off, resting for the playoffs....

[Fairwrning]

You 2 bro....holy shit..I think all stats are pretty close to locked up..except avg..1 pt difference...wow..I am benching my pitchers..I cant catch you in any of those stats...gonna play for that batting avg...and hope nothing else can change..

[Fairwrning]

I have 2 good pitchers today...CG could be possible..but doubtful...not sure if managers would let Harden go the distance..and Willis is too damn inconsistent

[POJO_Risin]

No way Harden goes the distance...

I COULD see Willis do it though...

[Fairwrning]

I cant chance it tho..I have the slimest of leads in WHIP..and cant catch up in ERA..so no sense in risking the WHIP for a CG..that would be stupid..I need some hits today..I like the fact it is coming down to avg..you cant protect that lead..you gotta play it out..

[Fairwrning]

My RBI lead worries me..only 4..that's not enuff..

[Fairwrning]

SB lead is only 2...damn this is gonna be close

[POJO_Risin]

To me...it's all gonna depend on who plays...and who doesn't...I know I'm fucked...because half my team isn't fucking playing...

IT'S THE LAST GAME OF THE YEAR YOU FUCKHEADS...

PLAY BALL!

[DlocRoth]

I missed 2 or 3 starts today too....

[Fairwrning]

DAMN!!.. You got me with the tiebreaker VA.....I almost would have rather gotten beat badly...all that and I lose the tiebreaker..DAMN!!!
Good game tho..congrats, ya bastard

[Va Beach VH Fan]

WOOHOO !!!

Gotta love that team ERA 1st tiebreaker !!!

It it was WHIP, I'd be congratulating you.....

[Guitar Shark]

Congrats to all of you fuckers... from the loser who got 9th place. :D

[Fairwrning]

.001 of a pt.......that's all I needed..1 more hit somewhere..1 more measley hit may have been enuff..FUCK!!!

and happy B-Day Shark...

[Guitar Shark]

Same to you wrning. Hope you liked the present I gave you in the football league ;)

[Fairwrning]

:asshole:

My team sucks

[POJO_Risin]

Congrats to all you fucks...

lmfao...

you are welcome VA!

IMO...you both tied...

SO I WIN!!!!

;)

[POJO_Risin]

You can't get much closer than that...seriously...another great season in the books...

to next year gents!

[Fairwrning]

Dude..I went to bed last night ..knowing that Jones had piched a shitty inning ..probably cost me WHIP..so I was gonna lose 6-4..then I see 5-5..FUCK!!

[DlocRoth]

Congrats bitches!

Great season.

Fuckin A, POJO......

Fucking Holliday killed me....

Shoulda made that MCab/Holliday trade....;)

[POJO_Risin]

lmfao...

yeah...I guess you should have...

truthfully DLoc...

we both had great stats that last two weeks...

Just goes to show you how having a bad week at the wrong time will kill you...

My offense was really clicking...along with my closers...and most of my starters...

[POJO_Risin]

Alright folks...

Baseball is about to warm up...

A couple of things...

RBW is in...

and I'll be scanning for another free league...

I won't do a Yahoo league in anything...ever fucking again...

they are fucking dead to me...the raging cunts...

[POJO_Risin]

ESPN has a free baseball league this year...

1. We are going to try it...

2. We can start talking today about a possible 2 or 3 player keeper...

and

3...

pitchers and catcher in about a week for most clubs...

life is good...

[Guitar Shark]

Count me in.

Pitchers and catchers report next Thursday!

[POJO_Risin]

It depends on the team....but yeah...most next week on Wednesday or Thursday...or Friday...lmfao...

You were in last year right?

Fucking Yahoo blows ass...

the fuckers...

A. Changed my password without asking and no warning.

B. I hadn't changed my fucking info in 10 years...well...you know...you do it here and there...so I have no fucking idea what it all is put together...

C. The fuckers won't let me answer my secret question...to make a new fucking password...

10 years...

Fuck Yahoo...

I'm done with it...

period...fucksticks...

[Guitar Shark]

That's too bad... I kinda like the Yahoo format. But I don't really care.

Yeah, I was in last year... and I sucked, royally. Came in 9th place out of 10 I think. Some dude who didn't even update his roster beat me.

[POJO_Risin]

Yahoo are a large bunch of malewhore suckers...

and their format will probably be better with all their "trying to compete with google" bullshit...

[Guitar Shark]

If you're considering draft options, I'd vote for a live draft. I hate autodrafts.

[POJO_Risin]

I hate autodrafts as well...

but baseball is MUCH harder than football IMO...

I hate autos as well...

but would prefer one...

UNLESS we decide to work a keeper.

I'm not sure I want too...and if we did...I'd make sure that I had a co-commish...IE Al...

[DlocRoth]

Aw HELL YEAH!!!!

Basketball is putting me to sleep....

Lets get it on!!!!

Let's go auto....

We can still do a keeper.

[POJO_Risin]

I'm okay with auto...

I'm okay with a keeper...

Fuck...we can all have auto-pick...and let Guitar Shark pick...lmfao...

imagine the pressure he'll be under when all the other people in the fucking league take 1 second to make their picks...

GS picks in the first round...and before he can even move is mouse...lmfao...he's up in the second...

I'm going to set up the league through ESPN today...

and Yahoo fucking blows ass...

Fuck Yahoo...

[Romeo Delight]

ESPN...

I love how they show hockey twice a year when their is a fight or ugly incident.

"I'd never take my 10-year old son to a game...Just disgraceful!"

Yeah. Nothing wrong with a little chin-music though. Clemens with some high heat to show just who is in charge. And hey, boys will be boys. You have to protect the plate...

:rolleyes:

[POJO_Risin]

alright...the league is set up...

post here if you want in...

AND

PM me with the e-mail address you want to use...

thanks...

[ALinChainz]

[Va Beach VH Fan]

[DlocRoth]

overdue change? LOL

nice job, Risin!

[WARF]

I want in!

I've been at work all week... and I don't have the time to scroll 3 thousand pages to find out where the league is!

Save me a spot.

[SA ME WHO]

I'm in if there are any spots left. I keep forgetting to check in here and not just the Locker Room.

So, if there's a spot, I'd love to have it. I'll be in it all season (whether my team is in it at all).

Thanks!

How bout this one? "Oh no! I've not "done it" for the almighty redblkwht! My life is seriously going in the shitter now!

If I ever grow some testicles and learn how to post, I'll be back to try and live up to his posting standards."

Enough Diablo on that one?:D

Seriously, it's not like it's that big a deal. I mean, if my vanilla posts preclude me from inclusion in the fantasy baseball league, whatever.

Sorry I didn't PM you the email POJ. Guess I didn't read all that clearly.

[redblkwht]

AWW.. speading jock itch isnt good bro, nice comeback btw.

lmao, that was seriously funny!

Gonna have to toughen your thin skin, if you wanna hang
with us. hahaha, gotcha!:tits:

[POJO_Risin]

Yo...SA ME...

The only thing that would preclude you is your low post count...

we only have teams that last the year...

and we don't know you...

As most people will tell you...this league is outstanding...

and rare is the day that teams drop out...

so if you guarantee you'll be in it...

we'll throw it to a vote...

we do still have 2 slots open...

[DlocRoth]

Is WARF in?

[WARF]

Oksy pojo... I sent you the PM with my email.

I'm ready to play.

No problems man. Rhinocerous hide here. Just pissing around with ya. But, I'm glad you're cool with it.

I didn't quite realize that you needed to graduate from the Yahoo! league to the ESPN league. That was my bad too. I did the Yahoo! league (through here) back in '05. And I honestly didn't even realize that I didn't do anything here last season.

Never did baseball through ESPN, but, I imagine it's not a big difference. Is it a weekly set up or daily set up? I've done 2 extra hockey leagues this year (NHL.com and CBSsportsline.com and I wasted the first half of the season forgetting to get lineups set for the following Monday. I like the daily thing better.)

If it's cool with people, it's cool. If not, seriously, no biggie. I'll have a few other leagues I'll be in (not to mention that I should probably be doing some work and not sitting here with a million fantasy teams).

[WARF]

I'm officially in....

Not that anyone will guess my team name...

[POJO_Risin]

It's a daily league...

[Eyes of the Night]

I'll take the last slot yo ... cunt wait, missed last year n' shit ... daily IS cool, no probs here ...

[SA ME WHO]

How many of you guys edit your rankings?

I've done it in the past and rarely had success. This year, I actually didn't do too poorly. I was just wondering about everyone else's experiences with it (and whether they've tinkered this year).

[DlocRoth]

I made a couple of changes, nothing major.....

Yo Eyes....sign yo ass up!!

[redblkwht]

[Eyes of the Night]

Aight Wrning ...

Yeah, think I'm just doin' the auto pick ... or just haven't figured it out yizet n' shit ...

[DlocRoth]

Draft tomorrow morning....

Good luck, losers!!

[SA ME WHO]

Dear God help me. I did it. I screwed with the pre-draft rankings.

So, I'm sure if I was even going to have any chance at all, I just messed it all up.

But, at least for a couple of weeks in March, it was nice to have the thought of playing competitive fantasy baseball.

Good luck to all (most especially me, because I'll need it by the dumptruck load).

[POJO_Risin]

Alright...whoever looks at this...

1 of 2 things have to happen here.

1. Either I need not play this year,

or

2. I need to back the draft up a few days.

I don't care either way, and it's up to you all.

I've got some shit going on right now that is going to swallow up a bunch of summer time.

I haven't had time to set rankings, or any of that shit, and won't until Wednesday...

Then after that, I'll be presetting my lineup for long periods of time...

I can get someone to take my slot, that's not an issue...and give the commish job to someone else...

or I can piecemeal it until July.

Whatever...your choice.

[ALinChainz]

Hey bro ... whatever YOU need to do ... this is all secondary to real life stuff.

You let me know if I can be of help.

[ALinChainz]

Back the draft up if it means you play.

Personally, I'd rather have it that way, plenty of time before the season starts anyway.

[DlocRoth]

TCB, Pojo......

But shit man.....

Play. Set the draft back. Do whatever you gots to do. We can wait.

Even with presetting your roster for a couple of months, I know the bastard that you are will still be in the hunt.

Either way, hope all is good in your neck of the woods.....

Dear God help me. I did it. I screwed with the pre-draft rankings.

So, I'm sure if I was even going to have any chance at all, I just messed it all up.

But, at least for a couple of weeks in March, it was nice to have the thought of playing competitive fantasy baseball.

Good luck to all (most especially me, because I'll need it by the dumptruck load).

Relax, dude....

There's plenty of good players out there. :cool:

[ALinChainz]

Plenty of time. Rank your players today, there is still time. Other ranking options as well.

[Eyes of the Night]

Risin', all you need is 20 min to set your top 50 ... that's what *I* did ...

[POJO_Risin]

lmfao...hey y'all...nobody's dead or dying.

Nothing like that at all.

Just a busy stretch is all.

I'm slowly putting this computer life to bed...except for the fantasy league...

I don't have time today to even look at it, although I've wasted five minutes posting here.

I'm in the middle of a big process to get a significant upgrade in my job. The only reason why I'm online is because I'm working with a couple of people in my cohort on some research. A year ago...I'd have spent the entire time lining up my draft...

but I can't...to big of a career move to fuck it up trying to figure out where to draft Cammy Parishol...

(wondering how many people are going to click that fucker into a search engine.)

;)

[POJO_Risin]

And if you think it only takes me 20 minutes to set my top fifty...lmfao...

then you forgot how good I am at this...

20 minutes doesn't even rank my top 5...

Good enough for me.

[redblkwht]

[Guitar Shark]

Yep, take your time POJO. Wouldn't be the same without you.

[POJO_Risin]

alright then my brothers...

I'm going to pause the draft until Tuesday or Wednesday Morning...

I'm at about 75 right now.

[Va Beach VH Fan]

Whatever trips your trigger, go for it....

I don't even waste my time with pre-rankings...

Worked out pretty well for me last year...

Agree.

Other than a couple subtle changes, I usually go with what they have.

Thanks dude. Just the pessimist in me rearing it's ugly head.

[Eyes of the Night]

Man, my mind is blown ... just saw Largo 82' for the first time last night on a 46 inch LCD ...

Why wouldn't you want to rank your top 50 players that you would want? ... that's the only downside going with espn rankings ... wensday's great, glad you could join us Risin';) ...

[redblkwht]

JP i left you message in the espn post thread..
just hoping..lol

thx!


good luck fellas drafting!

im hoping this season is fun & another
few teams out of the woodwork like detroit comes in the fold.

[DlocRoth]

Fuck Detroit!!!!!

Wassup Red?

[redblkwht]

nada, happy b-day this week pansy little nipple ring wearin sally ;) J/K

drink one for me:birthday:

[Eyes of the Night]

Happy 31st DlocRoth ...

Already getting butterflies doing my pre ranks n' shit ...

[POJO_Risin]

Still forgot to fucking prerank, and it cost me...

Well...

my fucking offense is stacked...

and my pitching...well...

seriously...

I've never had a shittier staff ever...

that said...

I've got many dealable parts...

So please make an offer...

[POJO_Risin]

Oh, and I have 67 good first basemen...

all available...

[DlocRoth]

I have Pujols, Manny and Dunn...

Game over.

That is all.

[Fairwrning]

I only drafted 2 starting pitchers..and I think 6 relievers..what a crock...

[Fairwrning]

Anybody wants a reliever..I need a starter..2 starters..unreal

[Guitar Shark]

Looks like I've cornered the market on starters... send me an offer for one if there's any interest. The only one off the table is Carpenter.

[ALinChainz]

Mickey-Mick and the Bunky Bunch.

[POJO_Risin]

I didn't get to bump up any players...damn it...

[Fairwrning]

Shark,,sent an offer..I need some starters..toss me a bone...counter or whatever..
I know relievers arent a great trade option..but I think the guy I offered is pretty decent

[Fairwrning]

Somebody trade me a starter for a reliever

[Fairwrning]

David Wright fell right between my fingers in the serpentine draft..that bites

[POJO_Risin]

Yo wrning...I'm going to send you an offer...just playin' around a bit...

[POJO_Risin]

David Wright...great ballplayer...

who the fuck is scott olsen

[Guitar Shark]

Is it true that POJO ended up without a single Cleveland player?

wrning, I countered...

[POJO_Risin]

Nada one...

that's alright though...

I wouldn't mind having all of them...

and usually bump them up...

but don't really have a "Lebron" type guy that I want...

although I still am dealing for Tribe players...

trying that is...

I think there's another Tribe fan however...

in the league...

[Eyes of the Night]

Aight, wella I guess I hogged all the SP's n' shit ...

[Eyes of the Night]

Risin', sentcha ...

[Eyes of the Night]

Yo shark, didja cancel that trade you sent? ... it's not coming up

[POJO_Risin]

Yo Eyes...

I remember you and your trading ways...

as always...I'm willing to deal...especially if you are offereing up a starter...

[POJO_Risin]

Hmmm...intriguing offer...

I have him rollin' in another potential deal...

hang on a second...

[Eyes of the Night]

My trading ways!? Buwahaha ... riiight ... a new year is upon us and I'm not the same ol' eyes;) ... wella, yeah I am ...

[Eyes of the Night]

My minutes ran out ... hang on I'll try to get more if not ... asta mannyana n' shit ...

[Eyes of the Night]

Here for another 30 min or so ...

[POJO_Risin]

fucking libraries...

[POJO_Risin]

I need to hang onto that guy bro...

I think I could deal him for a bigger stud...

although your deal was more than fair...

still a risk though...

[Eyes of the Night]

Hmmm ... counter at least ... I like blaylock too ...

[Guitar Shark]

Yeah, I pulled it Eyes... sorry about that.

[POJO_Risin]

I can't get rid of Blalock...he's my only 3B...

working on getting another though...

[Eyes of the Night]

No prob, I wouldn't have dealt it anyhow ... I want A-rod ...

[Eyes of the Night]

Risin', that's the only 2 I want really ... if you want any SP's lemme know down the road ...

[POJO_Risin]

Take a look at the old roster though Eyes...

see if there's someone else that interests you...

[POJO_Risin]

alright Eyes...

I'm sure we be talkin'...

[Fairwrning]

lemme think on that a bit Shark..I hate to give up that guy but damn I need pitching


Pojo..My other guy at that position is DL ready all the time..I cant lose the guy you want even tho I am thin at the position u are offering too

[Fairwrning]

Once again I am familiar with about half my team..

[Fairwrning]

countered Poj..workin on yours Shark

[Fairwrning]

countered Shark

[Fairwrning]

not throwing out any original offers yet..

[Fairwrning]

Pojo..you know you are going for an Oriole..cant do it..Remember I am the guy that dealt Abreau for Gibbons in a 2 for 2 deal ..cant remember the other 2

[Va Beach VH Fan]

LOL, I got Santana for the 22nd straight year..... ;)

[Fairwrning]

Cancelled my counter Shark..didnt seem even

[DlocRoth]

POJO.....

Countered...and IM'd you.

[Fairwrning]

Johann blows;)

[Va Beach VH Fan]

Uh, OK..... ;)

[Fairwrning]

who do ya want for him

[POJO_Risin]

Let me ponder a counter wrning...

I can't give you a starter...

I only have 4...and 2 aren't worth a hill of dirt...

[POJO_Risin]

Yo wrning...if you can find a deal for one of your 4 third basemen...

for one of my 20 1B...

I'd be glad to do it...

I want Huff...and I think you know I'll give you more than fair trade value for him...

but would consider Tracy...

[POJO_Risin]

Yo DLoc...is that other deal dead?

The third guy in your deal may not play full time...

I'll still take him to get my guy...

but what about the first deal I offered before you sent yours...

same idea?

[POJO_Risin]

Man...I love baseball season...

[Fairwrning]

Pojo is wheelin and dealin baby...

[POJO_Risin]

Wheelin' and Dealin' would be actually MAKING trades...lmfao...

I'm just making my head spin...

The thing that sucks is that I need damn pitching...but have no pitching to deal...

unless someone wants Schilling...

[Fairwrning]

How bout Swisher for either/or...your original offer is fair, dont get me wrong..

[Fairwrning]

Im out folks..back on tommorrow..

[POJO_Risin]

I just think I get killed in that deal...

[POJO_Risin]

I know you think it's fair...

it's funny...

when I first when in to make that deal...I was thinking he was still with Houston...

and I was going to deal that greek guy from Baltimore I have for him...

then I realized that greek guy is an OF...and Huff was an Oriole...lmfao...

[ALinChainz]

I'll move Clemens.

Talk about a wild card starter.

[POJO_Risin]

Yeah...good gamble...

You gotta like a guy that brings to the table what he can...

he'll be around...

[ALinChainz]

Its when he can I'm worried about.

This annual shit of cat and mouse with him is tiresome. Its like Favre and "I don't know if I'm coming back or not" bullshit.

[POJO_Risin]

Yeah...I wish he'd just say every year...

I'm playing...

not until June...

end of story...

but he's gotta be a fucking bitch...

fucking attention whore...

great pitcher though...

[ALinChainz]

Oh no question ... and what he's done at this stage of his career is nothing less than excellent.

But like you said, just say "I'll see ya in June".

I wonder how ESPN will treat his status, he couldn't be DL eligible I don't think, so I will have to have him on the roster taking up a spot.

[POJO_Risin]

I don't know...I'll be curious to find out...

but having been in their football leagues...

My guess is yeah...

you'll have to keep him on your roster...

I know how lovely the football rosters could be...

[DlocRoth]

Holy Shit.....

POJO...I accepted our deal with Nomah in it......

If Sizemore blows up as much as you think he will............

Fuck, he's a monster.......

Anyway, I got my sexy pick at SS. Vernon Wells better put up some numbers... LOL

DONE DEAL.

Good workin with ya, bro.....

Let's do it again.

[POJO_Risin]

You know we will...

lmfao...

now I need a 2B...

[DlocRoth]

Risin got his Indian.......

LOL...

So I love the Twins....

Anybody want to give me Morneau or Mauer? :)

[POJO_Risin]

NEXT!

I took a hit in that deal...

but got Grady...

[DlocRoth]

Nah...that was a fair deal.....

Sizemore will be a stud. Period.

I actually wanted more outta that deal.

But I've never had Jeter, LOL so I wanted him......

[DlocRoth]

Plus...Nomar will ride pine all year, I surmise.

[POJO_Risin]

Yeah...but Cantu WILL ride the pine half the time with Upton there...

which leaves me with no 2nd baseman...

Me getting Sizemore certainly evens it up...

but Lopez will ride the pine for me as well...

I think I have all your shortstops from last year...

it was you with all the SS's right?

[POJO_Risin]

Holy Shit...

I'd have done that last deal you offered you son of a bitch...lmfao...

[DlocRoth]

LOL....nice deal....

Yeah, I had ALL of the SS last year.

Nah, it's all good....

Now we move on to pitching....lol

[DlocRoth]

I don't know what to do with Frank Thomas......

Anybody want him?

Send me an offer.....

But I'm outro ladies...later.

[POJO_Risin]

Alright...I'm in the mood for a 2B...a 3B...and a whole bunch of freakin' pitching...

[Guitar Shark]

Sent you an offer JP

That was a blockbuster deal guys...

[DlocRoth]

LOL...

We usually have one....

Just didn't know it would be so soon...

But now it's on to the next one..

I have OF power and need pitching.

[redblkwht]

I am looking for an offer for sp
for an rp or o have many OF
looking for INF..trade.

over and out!

lol

[Fairwrning]

Last offer anybody..I need starting Pitchers..RBW...I have plenty of good relievers..take a look..I have to hit the wire tonight if nobody wants to trade..
Shark..I cant give up Crawford for a SP..not worth it

[Fairwrning]

Sent an offer RBW...Pojo..let me think on yours just a bit more..I cant explain it..I always fear trading with you..swear to god..I would probably pull the string by now if it were somebody else offering..lmao..

[Eyes of the Night]

Yo Wrning, sentcha an offer ... I'll be back tommorow ... later gents

[Fairwrning]

Countered Eyes..how ya been man?
Pojo..I think the guy you want being eligible for 2 positions is my thing..

[Fairwrning]

Looks like he will DH tho..that kinda hurts down the road

[POJO_Risin]

Normally, I'd be looking at your guy for that...but I need him straight up for third...

Like I said, think about the offer that's left on the table.

Look, baseball is the one league where I see deals, and generally, they end up even.

Yo DLoc...I think we've swung a blockbuster now four years in a row...

I know we rolled with a couple the one year...Rivera for Schilling, and another that year...that involved Dunn...and maybe Glavine? Did I get Schmidt and Feliz?

There was the Michael Young deal...when I sent him to you...

I seem to recall dealing you Carlos Lee...maybe in that deal...

I know I got Vlad from you...maybe in that deal.

Every year man...

four years running now...

lmfao...

and I think we both would say they've all been equal...injuries or no...
