The Roth Army Fantasy Baseball League

[POJO_Risin]

Boy...that looks like an offer...

[POJO_Risin]

Wait...that changed Lou...lmfao...

[Lou]

Dammit you were hidden weren't you, I thought I was alone in here.

[ALinChainz]

Thinking that myself. Giving up 60 HRs and 200+ RBIs along with a 17 game winner is a lot to give up also. Been waiting to make any moves on the waiver wire, to see if we could make a deal, but now that some guys have hit the wire, I have a few more options and can afford both catchers.

I'll go to the league now and cancel it.

[POJO_Risin]

Sounds good Chainz...I have a feeling we'll be talking again somewhere down the line...

I think I can fetch a bigtime starter with one of those guys you wanted...

[POJO_Risin]

Of course...who knows...

[redblkwht]

just got home...
wow you peeps arent playing with all the free agent
moves..lol

[POJO_Risin]

Yeah...I'm staying out of the market...

I'm really liking my team a lot...the more I look at it...

I'm not the best team...but I can make some noise...

[POJO_Risin]

What are you looking for in a deal RBW...just out of curiousity...

I need starters...

[redblkwht]

Poj, i dont know still pondering, im overwhelmed on my
staff, 7 strong starters..

im thinkin infield mostly, i cant give up any of
my top 4 for a DH/1b..

i looked back on my top 4 & their in every top 15
pick in 3 fantasy mags.
i aint selling myself short & to think i almost did yesterday 'whew'..
ill look over your team, i was hoping for another scenario
with your deal 2 days ago-

[POJO_Risin]

Well...he's certainly on the table...for sure...

I need a stud...or close to stud pitcher for him though...

I need starters...but I'm not going to sell my team for a #3...

[Eyes of the Night]

Hey Lou, didn't know that about schilling really ... to late now though, Schilling for Mariano ... thanks risin' ... needed a closer bad!

[Eyes of the Night]

Yo RBW, why are you SO into this? You're buying mags to win at free fantasy? Buwahaha! ...

actually next door to work we have a waldenbooks, i frequent there
alot on break.

its obvious you dont care to win any eyes..
heres laughin back atcha REAL hard!
nice decision.

HAHAHAHAHAHA..

J-P, you kill me

[Lou]

I know my opinion means nothing, but I think that's a bad deal for POJO, getting Schilling in exchange for Rivera. I understand POJO needs a starter in the worst way, but that's just too much to give up. I strongly believe Schilling will be less than impressive this year with all the cheap homers going out of Fenway Park.

[Fairwrning]

wow..thats a pretty huge trade early on ....dunno who got the better of it(if anybody did)...but i always prefer a starter..even over the best closer in the game...except maybe Gagne..

[Fairwrning]

when do the other teams start the regular season??
this is pretty fucked up ...i need to start figuring out who to start and when to use the bench...i have a couple of no 1 pitchers and a 2 and 3 i believe...hopefully this will pan out so i get points every night from my pitching...

[POJO_Risin]

They start tomorrow I think...I'm not even sure...check your roster...if you click the next coupla days it will tell you...

[Lou]

Yeah how does this work? I don't have any players involved in the early games.

[Fairwrning]

well shit..i just noticed Eyes had Tampa's pitcher last night

you fucker

[redblkwht]

is this a daily roster or weekly?
meaning last year you had to move your
starters in & out everyday..

pojo check pm's thx-

[Lou]

So does this mean I lose for today since I have no one participating? If so that's bullshit.

[Fairwrning]

no man, your game lasts all week

[Lou]

OK I see how they do it now. I've never done baseball before, just head-to-head football and non-head-to-head NBA. Although it seems like in the first week, because all the teams are starting at different times, you might be disadvantaged.

[WARF]

I sent eyes of the night a trade....

[POJO_Risin]

It's daily...but head to head weekly...

you can change your players weekly...but stats go for the week...

[POJO_Risin]

I need another starter...

Renteria or Nomar are on the block...

if you go for Nomar though...you better be prepared to give a damn good starter for him...

[Eyes of the Night]

Funny shit RBW! ...


Warf, your trades are lame dogg ...



Where the fuck is Troy!?

[Lou]

POJO, fat chance of trading Nomah for a first-rate starter now that he's starting the season on the DL and is expected to miss at least three weeks.

[WARF]

Eues won't give me a trade... cuz I dissed him all last year.

Pojo... your trade was good... but I don't need a SS.

[POJO_Risin]

Well bro...add something to it...keep the original players involved...and I'll let you snatch something off my team that you need...

You know what I need...I suspect I know what you need...

let me know...

[POJO_Risin]

I'm not worried about Nomar...especially with Renteria backing him up...

He's still worth a top flight starter...even on the shelf...

He'll be back...and the good thing is...they aren't rushing him back...so he'll more than likely be 100%...

thing is...don't think I need him anyways...

I need 1 more guy to feel good about my team...

[WARF]

You got two of the top 3 Shortstops in the league.

I would keep both, just for the hell of it.

I'd use Nomar to backup Edgar on his days off....

Shit... Nomar is a .340 hitter.... i'd keep him as a utility!

[POJO_Risin]

LMFAO...I still need a starter...

and I'll give one of them up for a good one...or...if theres someone who needs something...that I don't have...maybe we can work out a three way deal...

[Va Beach VH Fan]

STOP THE PRESSES !!!!

The Buccos are undefeated and in first place !!!!!

Hey, give me a break, I need to enjoy it while I can....

[DlocRoth]

*cough* help..... *gasp* Check out my rotation.... A week ago I thought I had it made..... now? Carl Pavoone better toss out a no-no.
Shit. I got nuthin to trade either. But anybody check out Joe Mauer? The kid catcher from St. Paul makes good on opening night for the Twins.. 20 fucking years old and runnin the offense. 2-3 and 2 runs scored. Even made a play at the play in the 10th inning to save the game. Steal o the draft. Anybody want Pierzynski? BWAAAHAHAHAH

[DlocRoth]

By the way...which one of you yahoos dumped Shannon Stewart? Fool!

[Lou]

That was me. With Garrett Anderson, Juan Pierre, and Preston Wilson as my other three outfielders, I have no intentions of starting him over those three, and as my utility he's not starting over Jeff Bagwell. If I wanted to trade him I wasn't going to get a starter in return or a good pitcher. So I can afford to drop him and take a risk on a player I think will have a comeback year--Pat Burrell. The 2002 Pat Burrell was better than Stewart will ever be and I'm betting that he'll rebound back to that form.

Lou, Lou, Lou....

You gotta think about off days bro....

Even if Stewart is your #4 outfielder when ALL of them are playing, there are several times thoughout the week when one team or another on your roster is off...

THAT's when you throw Stewart in....

[Lou]

Nope, that's when I throw Pat Burrell in who's gonna be much better than Shannon Stewart will be.
