LMFAO...

I'm sure you would you deal-master you...

I watched the game...it was the 4th inning...;)...

There's only 1 or 2 2nd baseman as good as Kent...on the DL or not...;)

I won't need him until the stretch run anyways...

[POJO_Risin]

I actually had him in the mix for a trade before the game tonight...

so much for that...

with you to Al...;)

ya...right.


im thinking i may have made up for the sesh deal to
myself with my deal..lol:cool:

[POJO_Risin]

The Sesh deal to myself?...what...the raping of sending a defense for a starting tailback deal? LMFAO...you singlehandedly caused Edge to suck from that point on...;)

I'll give you credit for that deal yesterday though...

if Bonds stays healthy...I think you got the better end of it.

A lot depends on Wood though...if he comes back the pitcher he should be...Clemens won't touch him the second half...and Ichiro...well...he's slappy...but good for the average...

[Eyes of the Night]

Was glad to send Bonds to Red ... how can you hit when you get walked everytime? ... 4 walks tonight ...

:gulp:

[Eyes of the Night]

Ichiro was practically a give away ... for one of Red's bench players ... I hate dye, anyone want dye? ... yes and all for the Vlad man, now let's just hope his knee doesn't buckle, you know from all those years at Montreal and the astroturf ...


:gulp:

[POJO_Risin]

He'll be fine...no doubt...

One guy won't win you a title though bro...

the telling tale of this will be when Wood comes off the DL...he could send your staff up...when Clemens eventually cools off...

or get hurt again...

Ichiro gets you steals though...I know...one stat...but I win it nearly every week...it's like a free point...

[POJO_Risin]

that being said...I'd never trade Vlad in a million years...

[Eyes of the Night]

Steals aren't a concern as I'll be alright without Ichiro in that department ...

Rbi's, hr's, and hits are my main concern and with Vlad filling in for Bonds who doesn't do anything and an ichiro who mostly singles I'm hizappy as hell ...

Didn't need Clemens, my thinking with him was it's all downhill from here for that old pup ...

Buwahahaha!!! ...

I about fell out of my chair ...


beer me!


:gulp:

[POJO_Risin]

Bonds...batting .352...19 dingers...and 40 Ribbies...

he already has 113 walks...

Vlad...batting .346...19 dingers...68 RIBBIES...

but has twice as many hits...and 6 SB's to go with it...

yeah...really not a lot of comaparison between the two...

Jesus Christ...bonds has 113 walks...and it isn't even the break yet...that's incredible...

I need to start a thread...

[POJO_Risin]

Alright Va...what do you want for Kendall...what do you need...

I need a catcher...

[POJO_Risin]

I've got some depth...

Check Yahoo....

[POJO_Risin]

I checked...blinked twice...checked it again...;)...

I have to think that guy would get me a little more...I could be wrong...

I may counter...;)

Well he sure as hell hasn't been getting you anything yet....

You should be in a generous mood after I gave you Helton for what's becoming the next version of Mario Mendoza.... ;)

[POJO_Risin]

I have turned down a few for him...actually...from you if I remember correctly...

Al actually offered me a bit of a blockbuster with him included...I turned down...

Generous?...hey man...it's a long season...I'm sure Wilson will be fine...and Helton is still ailing...just reading in a Colorado paper online today that they are planning on pulling him in games...maybe every other night...to avoid having to place him on the DL...

[Fairwrning]

lmmfao..blood from a turnip bro..:D

[Fairwrning]

love watchin Pojo negotiate..lol

[Fairwrning]

christ....Wakefield piches a beauty..and cant win...Garcia and Radke are throwing softballs at each other..neither one will get the decision..lol..

[POJO_Risin]

Good to see the Garcia deal working well...wrning...do you have both?

Wakefield looked great...did the Yanks come back in that game?

[POJO_Risin]

I just like trading...what can I say...this wouldn't be fun if I couldn't overhaul my team...

I would have been fine with my initial team...christ...I don't even know who the hell was with me from the start at this point...

[Fairwrning]

Wakefield looked great...did the Yanks come back in that game?

yeah. i have both..Ortiz booted a ground ball at first, ala Buckner..but a harder hit ball..the Sox bullpen sucks....

[Fairwrning]

i have Radke and Garcia..i hate it when you have 2 pitching against each other..i would rather have 2 shots at a win than a 50-50 shot at 1...

[POJO_Risin]

Yeah...you pray to christ for a 1-0 game...

it always ends up...10-8...lmfao...

dude...EsPn is the way to go...

[redblkwht]

Thats the guy i wanted, i never win in rbi's, so i got more padding on
my hits& runs, which if you compared vlads hits suzukis right there,
plus my bonus was SB indeedio right pojo, another point..lol-
fall off your chair dude, you won/i won IMO.
i got what i wanted & we'll see the 2nd half what may happen.

I got varitek for any dealers out there too..
anyone interested? gimme a hollar-

[POJO_Risin]

LMFAO...I need a catcher...so you may get a call from me...

but I see him as overvalued in a lot of leagues...so I won't offer up a lot for him...

so I probably won't waste our times in a deal...

[Fairwrning]

some dude in my other league wants me to trade Jenkins for Baldelli..i think that would be stupid..any opinions??

[POJO_Risin]

Well...a couple of things to think about Baldelli bro...

1. Last year...he was hitting about .260 at the break...no power or speed...

2. he ended up at .290 with 11 dingers...78 ribbies...and 27 sb's...

he's a five tool guy...who plays well in the second half...

Jenkins is awesome...I had both last year...but Jenkins WILL go down at some point...IMO...

If Jenkins stays healthy...he's probably slightly better...and definately better in the power numbers...

but he's NEVER played an entire season...and will go down...mark my words...

I don't think you can sell high on that guy...Jenkins that is...so it may be a deal to consider...

[POJO_Risin]

Hope that helps...

I like Baldelli and Jenkins...thought I could still Jenkins this year...but someone (you?) beat me to the punch...and I was thinking of actually dumping Baldelli for him at the time...a month ago or so...

right now...I probably wouldn't dump or trade Baldelli straight up...batting .315 with 2 dingers...15 ribbies over the past month...

not spectacular numbers...but he's warming up...

Jenkins...Last month... .238...5 dingers...15 ribbies...

no way I'd deal Baldelli for that...but I'd take Baldelli for that...

hope that helps...

[Fairwrning]

something to think about..thanks man..i am not familiar with Baldelli at all...how many years has he played???

[Fairwrning]

guess i could look it up..lol

[POJO_Risin]

This is his second year...

he's out of Massachussetts...and was a highly touted pick...a lot of players compare his style of play to Dimaggio...and they say he's developing his power...

I expect he'll have a bigtime second half...

or hoping as much...

like I said...Jenkins numbers and Baldelli's numbers are comparable...but Baldelli has more hits...higher average...slightly less dingers...but...stays healthy...and plays through it...

he's been mildly hurt for the past 2 weeks or so...which would explain his lack of power...

and he has a decent lineup with Crawford and Huff surrounding him...

[Fairwrning]

im trying to include Tejada for Renteria in the deal..i want my boy Miguel..

[POJO_Risin]

LMFAO...and wrning takes the step that will keep the deal from being made...

actually...that may go through...pump up Renteria having a big 2nd half...

lmfao...he probably will...already heating it up...you will gain power though...

[POJO_Risin]

My one downfall in fantasy baseball...putting players I like on my roster...surprised nobodys tried to take advantage of that by offering me up Indians...lmfao...

You don't know how many idiotic deals I almost made for CC this year...I almost threw Schilling your way in a deal that would have included Sabathia...

glad I didn't...

[Fairwrning]

I have Hafner and Belliard too bro;)

[Fairwrning]

ill give ya both for Helton..lol...seriously

[POJO_Risin]

You want to give me Hafner and Belliard for Helton?

Helton's one of my favorite players...which is the only reason why he's untouchable to be honest...

I can't stand having a player on my team that I hate...

When I set up my draft...I get 20 or so picks that I would make in the first three rounds...and I move them up according to who I like first...then...by position...

it's fucking stupid...but it seemed to work out this year...

I love Hafner...and Belliard's surprising the shit out of me...but like I said...I like Helton...and he's better than both right now...although in a couple of years...Hafner will be one of the top 1b/DH's in baseball...along with Broussard...whereever he's playing...

[Fairwrning]

i like Hafner..been solid since Sexson died on me...I like Helton more:D

[POJO_Risin]

4 guys I'd NEVER, EVER have on my team...

1. Manny Ramirez (a fucking bitch)

2. Jim Thome (a fucking bitch)

3. Any Yankee except Jorge Posada and ARod (I like Posada...and ARod is just awesome)

4. fucking Braves...(except for Marcus Giles...any Brave player...last year I had Smoltz and was set to deal him when he went down...had Lopez...and dealt him...had giles...like the way he plays...just hate that fucking team...

[Fairwrning]

Belliard is my only 2nd baseman..so i wouldnt trade him honestly

[POJO_Risin]

Like I said...I like Helton...great player...automatic...I was happy to get him...but I almost didn't do that deal...I like Wilson's power upside...and Helton was hurt at the time...

[POJO_Risin]

How about Helton and Kent for Belliard and Hafner...

lmfao...

[Fairwrning]

im leary to trade the rest of the way......everytime i do..somethin happens...i gotta break the karma b4 football season....

oh well..off to mow the grass..

[POJO_Risin]

You have no luck bro...that's for sure...no luck at all...

you've had good deals this year, haven't you? Weren't you the one that got Rolen?

[Fairwrning]

I got Rolen..cost me Arod...Hudson was in the mix...he's out....trades havent hurt me like they did in football last year..Porter/Jerevicous/both traded for and went out the next week...

[Fairwrning]

course..i ve only made one trade this year...i think

[POJO_Risin]

Yeah...but Hudson was just precautionary...he'll be fine...obviously a pretty good trade for you at this point...

you can check on how many trades...just not sure how...actually I am...just not going to explain it here...

[redblkwht]

Pojo was that your guy from the twins today with ALL those K's??
WOW...........

[POJO_Risin]

Santana...yeah man...I had him rated relatively high...I know higher than those fucking closers I had...and somehow fucking Va Beach got him...

then let him go...

12 K's...but...no win damn it...

looks like all those innings are starting to catch up with Schmidt...

[POJO_Risin]

Man...fucking Al comes up with a blockbuster out of fucking nowhere...

damn him...

[POJO_Risin]

Al man...you know what's funny...

you and I look at Huff completely different...

he'll never play first or third for me...I need him in my OF...

I look at him as my OF....

and my third or fourth choice at 1st and/or 3rd...lol...

[ALinChainz]

Sometimes you make it a blockbuster night.

[POJO_Risin]

Wasn't online all day...I'll take a look at it again...and make a decision...

[ALinChainz]

No problem bro, the season is long.

[POJO_Risin]

Fucking Beltran...aaaarrrrrggggghhhhhhh.....

damn it all anyhow...

struggling with a trade I shouldn't be struggling with...

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[POJO_Risin]

What's been goin on today in sports Al...haven't been around much...well...haven't been around at all...lmfao...

[Troy]

I know my pitching is tearing it up tonight.

[POJO_Risin]

Who do you have going on the hill?

Peavy right? He's looking good off the DL...maybe one of the best in the league right now...nice pickup...

[Troy]

Nice pickup? I thought I got him in the draft. Notice I didn't say "I" drafted him ;)

and Oliver Perez got me 11 k's with a win. Baez a save. I'm waiting to see where Nathan is. It was yies last time I looked.

[ALinChainz]

Just baseball. Which is my least favorite time of year.

It sure is a staunch trade offer bro, I'll admit from what we were discussing to this offer.

I call it a gift.

he he he

[POJO_Risin]

Did you draft him? I thought he was available at one point as a free agent...lmfao...my bad...

[Troy]

I don't know anymore. I think I only kept maybe 3 pitchers from my draft. I know Nathan was one of them. The rest I read up and rolled the dice.

[POJO_Risin]

Well...Peavy was one of those guys that was considered a sleeper...I had him rated pretty low on my draft board...in the 200's...

I had him on my watch list for awhile...but I can't remember if I was going to try to pick him up...or trade you for him...lmfao...

[Troy]

I gotta see one of these draft boards. Do you have a war room also??? ;)

[Troy]

and Nathan with the save

[POJO_Risin]

LMFAO...my war room is now my son's room...lmfao...so no...not any more...but dude...I have a board...no shit...and I HAD a war room as well...

fucking training potty in there now damn it all anyhow...

[POJO_Risin]

Nathan...lmfao...

I solidified my closers...thank god I had depth...

I love Lidge...Gagne is automatic...Izzy...as sure a thing as there is right now...and Takatsu...think he'll be fine...he's getting pushed a bit though...

[POJO_Risin]

Troy man...you almost sound like you know what you talk about now in baseball...lmfao...and it's not even the break...

could troy be ready to make a move?

[Troy]

I'm crazy like that! :)

[Troy]

Hey, whatever happened to Kaz Sasaki? He's not with the Mariners anymore. My buudy and I went to see Bonds last year at Safeco field and I was watching Sasaki warming up in the outfield. That fucker could throw almost the entire distance of the field! I could only dream of throwing it that far.

[POJO_Risin]

I think he's back in Japan pitching...if I'm not mistaken...

couldn't handle the big boys...

[Troy]

and here's my non-baseball fan story:

My buddy wants to get to Safeco like 3 hours before the game to see Bonds BP, Bonds is his fave. We are in the outfield and Bonds comes up. Hitting grounder after grounder. My buddy can't wait anymore, he goes to take a piss. Sure enough I'm standing there, Bonds hits 7-8 dingers in a row. Balls are dropping 5-10 feet, 1 or 2 rows in front of me, people jumping over seats for these balls. I just stand there with this puzzled look on my face. My buddy comes out and I just start laughing. He knew he missed something. I told him there were a few balls dropped near me and he's furious I didn't get one for him. He still hasn't forgotten it.

[POJO_Risin]

LMFAO...man...there's nothing like BP...

I remember going to see the Angels play the Indians about 20 years ago...and Reggie was smacking them out...talking to the crowd...putting on a show...

he would yell over to the fans behind the plate...where do you want it...someone would yell...dead center...and he'd do it...

the only time I saw him that he wasn't an asshole...

[POJO_Risin]

Man...a Bonds ball...lmfao...and you didn't move...

[POJO_Risin]

Al...it's a done deal bro...I'm going to okay it in the morning...done deal...

Big one too...man...should definately improve your team for the long haul...

I hope mine too...

[Eyes of the Night]

Fill us in commish! ...


:gulp:

[POJO_Risin]

Check it out for yourself bro...just accepted it...

see you Mr. Beltran...damn it...

didn't want to lose him...but you can't fucking pass up ARod...

I can't believe I just traded for two fucking Yankees...

but wtf...if Nomar is healthy...and plays Nomar's way...

same for Kent...

and Beltran is...well...Beltran...

could help homeboy out down the road...

Arod's a HUGE improvement at short for me...

Soriano's IMO the best 2B out there...regardless of what his stats say right now...

and Posada...well...let's hope he's healthy...give's me a catcher anyways...

I lose one player from my team last year...and gain 2...so wtf...

[Eyes of the Night]

That sounds like a killer deal indeed! ... Holy shit ...

[POJO_Risin]

I couldn't let that Vlad deal be the only superstar deal...

My infield is decent...

Helton, Soriano, ARod and Blalock...not bad...

[POJO_Risin]

Not thrilled with my OF now...but fuck it...

[Troy]

What are you weiners still doing up? ;)

[POJO_Risin]

LMFAO...I'm on fucking baby patrol...

[Eyes of the Night]

Drinking troy, I'm still up drinking!;) ...

Baby patrol eh! Lmao! ...


:gulp:

[Eyes of the Night]

Oh and in deep playing a season of curt chilling's "high heat 03" on the PC ... even though it's 2 years old I get these updated rosters that make the game more realistic ...

Fookin', who do you want for Blalock risin? ... I guess I'm ok with Mora ... nevermind ... lol

[Va Beach VH Fan]

My season's going in the turlet....

Injuries, pitchers with half-ass outings, and punch-and-Judy hitters are killing me....

Looks like I'm going to take quite a hit this week...

Oh well, like it's been said alot, still a long way to go....

[ALinChainz]

I have also been experiencing too much of the turlet myself. Tried to shake it up by dealing for A Rod, hasn't worked. Figured I would try one more blockbuster before I swirl right on out of the bowl.

[Fairwrning]

sweet..my last pick-up ( jason Bay) with a 8 rbi game (9 if ya count both games of the double header)...was it Vlad G that did it earlier this year??

[POJO_Risin]

Yeah...Vlad did it...Bay's the guy with all the buzz right now though...to bad he plays for a team who's management hasn't got a clue...

they need to dump McClendon...and get a real manager in there...then get someone who can figure out how to cultivate this team into a winner...because what they have there now just isn't getting it done...

of course...they did just sweep St. Louis...so...wtf am I talking about...

Great young players there in Pittsburgh though...

and if they can take care of those young arms...

[POJO_Risin]

You can't pass up Arod if it's a decent deal...
and as much as I like Beltran...I couldn't pass that up...

Posada's laying an egg this year...but he's certainly more able than that ham and egger LeCroy...

maybe I'm done dealing?

Eyes...watch Mora...he may be going on the DL...and Blalock...even though my mind is telling me not to make any more deals...I'm always ready to listen...;)

[ALinChainz]

Unless ears fall off after completing a trade, always gotta listen.

[POJO_Risin]

Hmmm...Varitek for Kendall...

power for average...

interesting...

Sorry Va...we couldn't get the deal done...but as you can see...I had a big one sitting on the table...

didn't take you long to follow up...

[POJO_Risin]

Looks like Va is trying to upgrade his power...hmmmm...

[POJO_Risin]

Well...I have some power guys on my bench...just don't know if they'll help you or not...

looks like I might be out of the trade game...

[Va Beach VH Fan]

Don't blame ya, that was one helluva trade, can't get too much more balanced than that one....

And yeah, me and RBW finally made a deal...

I bet RBW does his taxes 11PM on April 14th.... (J/K bro)..... :D

[POJO_Risin]

Well...the fucker kept us from getting that deal done...lmfao...

almost beat him to the punch...

[WARF]

I see there is alot of wheelin n' dealin'...

It should spice things up.... and i'm sure pojo is happy i'm about ready to GOOSE EGG....WERFAMULEE!!! or warf's family.... whatever!!!

[redblkwht]

my bad today i forgot to switch him to bench..LMAO.
Va, im glad you got your guy, what the hek.
this has been an incredible week indeed in trades.
Im looking forward to seeing the upcoming weeks too.;)

[POJO_Risin]

WARF my brother...it's not making me upset in the least...lmfao...

My offense shit the bed tonight...not even going to check Lou's damn it...fuck it...

got two wins today...Schilling and Halladay were both awesome...that's what I need for the home stretch...

[POJO_Risin]

I'm running out of people to trade...WARF...Troy...anyone...interested? I don't even know what I would want to deal...but I'm listenin'...if you're looking for something...

damn...still wondering about that damn Beltran deal....

[Eyes of the Night]

Been waiting for Mora to go on the DL for the past 2 weeks now, that fucking pussy can't handle a little pain!?;) ...

Got what's his fuck, Dave something or rather who's been on fire since his number was called ... replacing Mora when he's not playing ... thing is he also plays right field, short stop ... you name it but the league only notices his 3rd base stature ... wtf?

and to be honest I literally have no bench players in my lineup to give up just pitchers;) ... lol ,,,

[POJO_Risin]

He has to play 20 games at a position to gain that position in this league...

[Eyes of the Night]

Trippy ...


:gulp:

[POJO_Risin]

The best thing for him is if Mora comes back...then you'll get the extra position slots...

[POJO_Risin]

Yo Va...I see WERFAMILY woke up a bit yesterday!

ya bastard...I was hopin' you'd get shut out...now you gotta a shot to either tie or win...you ass...

[POJO_Risin]

By the way...

I Love that Boone pickup...

1. He won't end up with Seattle

2. He's going to be huge the second half...

it's to bad you had to let go of Womack to get him...another good player playing in front of some big timers in St. Louis...

[Va Beach VH Fan]

Yeah, just a bit....

Not looking too promising so far today though....

Pettitte and Vazquez are both sucking today....

May very well get blown out as I thought....

[Lou]

I haven't been paying close attention but now I just realized Sidney Ponson is 0-9 in his last 9 starts (amazing he has 9 straight decisions) and he's 3-12 this season. How the fuck does that happen?

[Va Beach VH Fan]

Lots of cheeseburgers.... ;)

[POJO_Risin]

Yeah...that dude is one fat motherfucker...he and Colon would make one hell of a tag team...

[POJO_Risin]

Glad I didn't deal for Nevin...lmfao...

looks like he'll be out the rest of the year...

[POJO_Risin]

It's funny how these injury prone guys...never get passed it...

[Va Beach VH Fan]

Well, it's a 1-2 matchup this week, but I don't foresee a close match...

Injuries are just killing me...

Casey went on the DL, to join Delgado and M. Giles... Although I believe Delgado is due to come off of the DL tomorrow....

A. Ramirez has a strained groin, so he might as well be on the DL....

The Varitek/Kendall trade will be effective Tuesday, so that may get me a couple more RBI's or so, but that's about it....

Craig Wilson looks like he may be warming up again, I sure as hell need it....

Proposed a couple of trades, but has been the case for 95% of the season, both got shot down....

[Fairwrning]

finally stopped my 3 week skid..back into 3rd..i need 2nd place..that extra playoff game is gonna hurt somebody..Troy this week..tough game last time..Va/Pojo head to head....hmmmm

[POJO_Risin]

Yeah...a toe to toe...I just want a split...;)...

I've gone 42-5 the last four weeks...and I only have an 8 game league...that says something for the league itself...

Va has a way of evening things up with me...

We'll see how it goes...

I offered up Mark Teixera in about 20 trades this year...and I got a lot of not interesteds from those trades...dude's been going off...having the year everyone predicted...and I don't have a slot for him...

so if anyone's interested in a solid 3rd baseman...1rst baseman...let me know...check his stats yourself...the guys has been tremendous.

I don't need to fill any holes right now...'cept maybe outfield...so if anyones interested...send me an offer...

[POJO_Risin]

You had a big win last week wrning...who'd you play?

[Eyes of the Night]

What happened to Nevin? ...

[POJO_Risin]

He tore cartilage in his knee...

they are going to put him on the 15 day DL...but he'll be out for the year...more than likely...

[Eyes of the Night]

Fuck n A ... I wanted to pick that bastard up too ...

Fucking Tiexera eh Pojo? ...

[Eyes of the Night]

Sent you an offer Risin' ...

I'm going to go wash my truck so I can sell the sum bitch tommorow ...


I'll be lurking ...

[POJO_Risin]

I'll take a look at it...

[redblkwht]

These frikkin monday games are killing me.
Im thinking of another big move soon..
Ill be looking over teams & shoot a proposal tonight.;)

[Troy]

Check out my whopping 54.00 ERA... Damn.

I'll be back wrning! ;)

[POJO_Risin]

Eyes...I'll ponder that...it's fair on paper...I just have to decide if I like your guy or not...I also may counter...not sure yet though...

[POJO_Risin]

LMFAO Troy...that's some ERA...I thought my 9 ERA was bad...

[Troy]

I laughed when I saw it. Zach Day gave up 8 runs in 1.1 innings... He was just one of those pitchers I had to give me extra numbers but, that sucks.

[POJO_Risin]

Yeah...a couple of years ago I tried leaving two roster slots open so I could go at pitchers every day and I lost the ERA and WHIP pretty consistantly...and won K's and wins about 50% of the time...

I'm not saying it can't be done...but it's tough to do...

[Troy]

He's kind of hit or miss anyway. One game he's great, the next he's horrible. I guess that happens when you play for the Expos.

[POJO_Risin]

Yeah...Day is one of those guys that will fill in another team's roster nicely...

it's hard to get up as a pitcher...throwin' for the Expos...

[Fairwrning]

[POJO_Risin]

[POJO_Risin]

wrning...bro...what's the name you wanna hear...before I go that far as to offer up a deal...

lmfao...I don't have Beltran anymore by the way...so you won't lose half your team for him...

I don't sneak in and block Va's trade anyways...I'd never hear the end of it...

[Fairwrning]

i was eyeballin Giles...

[POJO_Risin]

One of my OF's...I don't have many of them...so I'd need one in return...

[ALinChainz]

[POJO_Risin]

Alright wrning...I'm seriously considering it...give me some time to ponder that deal you sent me...

[Fairwrning]

i now have 3 different deals with diffrent players in all...

[POJO_Risin]

I go out to have a smoke...take a piss...I come back...and one of the guys in the middle of my trade has been traded to you you bastard...;)

Nice deal...I think...

[POJO_Risin]

I have exactly 0 deals...with nobody involved...lmfao...

[POJO_Risin]

Sorry Eyes....1 deal on the table...lmfao...

[redblkwht]

WOW...

i did indeed want maggs bro sorry :confused:

[Fairwrning]

[redblkwht]

I dig Lee, overbay is the schizznit..i did need blue
on my team, i like kent & feel houston will deal
off some peeps afte the allstar break if they fall any harder.
9 frikking games back. holy moly!!!!!!

[POJO_Risin]

That's cool...

Glad I didn't waste any time trying to put something together...lmfao...

[POJO_Risin]

I've got to be honest...

RBW did a nice job tonight in deals...

interesting little trade with the wallbangers...

[Fairwrning]

that was the smoothest trade i have ever had...i named a player..he named a player and it was done..

[Fairwrning]

i still need an outfielder

[POJO_Risin]

I can't believe I got shut out of deals...

lmfao...

now I gotta go on the sneak tip...I don't know what the hell I need though...lmfao...

strugglin' this week though...

[redblkwht]

9 games back houston, who woulda thought?
On paper this IS the best team in the NL period with
beltran.

I did mean what i said pojo..

[POJO_Risin]

That makes 2 of us...

by the way wrning...did you deal Jenkins for Baldelli...

Rocco's on fucking fire...went 4 for 5 tonight...

[POJO_Risin]

Houston's pitching's been average...and they can't score any runs...

I see Beltran getting moved again...

don't know about Kent though...

[Fairwrning]

no..i guess Tejada was the dealbreaker..lmao...

[POJO_Risin]

Shit though...you should have went straight up for Baldelli...second half player...

meant what you said about what RBW?

[Fairwrning]

actually,i tried Sheets and Jenkins for Tejada and somebody..cant remember

[Fairwrning]

Baldelli i think..didnt bite

[Fairwrning]

im up to 3rd in my rotisserie league..first time ive done one..

[Fairwrning]

they dont count hits tho..what kinda shit is that??

[redblkwht]

LIFE IS GOOD.. thanks FW.

[POJO_Risin]

I like Rotisserie...Hits is one of those stats that should be there...

but it all depends on the commish...

[Fairwrning]

i like head to head better..you have a week to hit a groove...playoff system...i think it keeps it more interesting..i could drop 10-12 points and be in last tommorrow with rotisserie..kinda sucks

[POJO_Risin]

Yeah...that's the truth...

but...the best team rarely wins in head to head...

always wins in rotisserie...

[Fairwrning]

thats why i hate it;)

i just offered Jenkins for Baldelli straight up//well see what happens

[POJO_Risin]

That's going to be a tough sell after 4 for 5...but he wanted Jenkins right?

[Fairwrning]

yeah..his first offer was that..i shot it down

[Fairwrning]

Originally posted by POJO_Risin

hits dont count

[Fairwrning]

im at 6-5 with Troy this week..his ERA went down quite a bit...

[POJO_Risin]

What about Average?

[Fairwrning]

Originally posted by POJO_Risin

yeah..avg/runs/rbis/hrs/sb

[POJO_Risin]

I had a great pitching night...oughta move up a bit there...but my sticks are silent...

[POJO_Risin]

Al...anything on my roster interest you?

You have a guy or two I wouldn't mind dealing for you...and I have some players that are steamrollin' right now...

[POJO_Risin]

Al man...you've made some killer moves...

no way that team ends up in last place...you'll make the playoffs...

Now let's freakin' deal...

You have the 1 guy I want in this league...and I'll pay you for him...;)

[ALinChainz]

Sorry bro, I was nearly falling asleep at the computer ...

Had to nap. Today is another day.

Now to get out of last, really bringing me down. :D

[POJO_Risin]

Al...

you have one guy that I want...I just don't know...after all these trades...what you are looking for...

take a look...and let me know...or make an offer...

[POJO_Risin]

Some great trades the past couple of days...

just a reminder...the trade deadline is August 15th I think...

a ways off...but something to keep in mind...

[POJO_Risin]

My offense isn't playing well right now...

I need to shake it up a bit...

Eyes...I don't think I'm going to pull off that deal...give me one more day to think about it...

[POJO_Risin]

Jesus Christ...Va...you're ERA is under fucking 1...

[Va Beach VH Fan]

Originally posted by POJO_Risin

And that's not counting tonight....

Washburn = 4-hit complete game shutout

Ishii = 7-0 in the 4th inning vs. Arizona....

I fucked up benching Andruw Jones instead of Delgado coming off of the DL....

Delgado goes 0-5, Jones 4-4 with 5 RBI's....

[ALinChainz]

I hate it when that happens.

And I do it a lot.

[POJO_Risin]

I'm getting my damn ass killed...lmfao...I know I'm up 6-5...but that's about to change...

figure leadarm Washburn gives his one good performance of the year against me...what a fuckhead...

[ALinChainz]

Nine or ten games tonight where the winning club scored in double figures.

Lots of run scoring tonight.

[POJO_Risin]

And I got none of that shit...well...a little bit...

but I'm betting Va kicked my ass tonight...

[POJO_Risin]

What do you need Al...I'm feelin' tradey...

[POJO_Risin]

2 complete game shutouts from a couple of fucking hacks...

jesus christ...you shit flowers...

[redblkwht]

looking at all these stats for the guys & roids was evident compared to
2003, im overwhelmed when you compare some legit players.
unfuckingreal, 1 word..lol

[POJO_Risin]

wouldn't that be three words?

I don't know...I'm sure roids are still rampant...have to be...but I agree...the numbers have dropped a bit...

of course...the season is young...

[Fairwrning]

Troy is starting to pull away from me offensively..dammitt..Andruw Jones went 4-4 with 5 rbi's?? hmmmmmm..;)

To answer your question Va....i traded Bay because he hasnt been playing lately..of course, now that he is off my roster, hes sure to explode

[Va Beach VH Fan]

Yeah, it never ends....

As soon as I trade someone, they go off.... [ See Helton, Todd... ;) ]... And Wilson is down around .280 now... Fucker.....

In reference to Bay, his shoulder still gets a little sore from the surgery in the spring... He'll play this weekend vs. the Expos in San Juan...

That should be a great series for the fans in the Clemente homeland... Lots of things planned there..... I traveled through San Juan, and Carolina specificially where Clemente is from, and you see huge murals of him all over the place....

[POJO_Risin]

LMFAO...

Bay's going to have a great career...no doubt...a bit erratic right now...and if he gets through the sophomore slump next year...oughta be a good player for a long time...

...lmfao...for someone other than the Pirates...

[POJO_Risin]

What's the Buccos record anyways...after that run they're on...

[Va Beach VH Fan]

Still 6 games under .500.... 38-44 I believe...

Hopefully a good series vs. the Expos will pull them closer to .500....

Also, the latest on the Benson swap is that Minnesota is very interested as well, possibly offering up Cuddyer....

I've heard Texas as well, hearing Texieria's name mentioned, but if I were the Rangers I wouldn't give him up.....

And of course the fuckers in New York want him also....

He's pitching tonight.... Nice road trip for a scout, huh ??

Some cervezas, some senoritas, etc..... ;)

[POJO_Risin]

LMFAO...

no way the get Tex for him...although you never know...

don't really like Cuddyer...

Hmmmm...I wonder what the Yanks are offering up...they're probably waiting for Johnson...

[POJO_Risin]

Troy is a sneaky bastard like that...

there are some interesting scores this week...

[Va Beach VH Fan]

Originally posted by POJO_Risin

I don't keep up with all of the minor league rosters, except for the Bucs' of course, but from what I've heard, the Yanks' AAA roster is pretty much depleted....

[POJO_Risin]

Well...the Buccos are certainly deep...if they can keep them...

but the Sox are willing to part with their #1 rated pitcher...who's knocking at the door in AAA...and their #3 pitcher, who's close...in AA...as well as Derek Lowe (who's a bum...but may be enticing as someone who can be a role player on that staff...or potentially close...as he did successfully 3 years ago)...

Then...they deal Nomar...for a gamer...and some prospects...and you have him...

sounds easy on paper...

but the Yanks will play a part...

Theo Upstein denies it...lmfao...

[POJO_Risin]

Alright Al...I'm sniffing out some outfielders...

what'll it take to get Beltran back from you?

[POJO_Risin]

I know you'll deal...so what the fuck...goto the guy who moves and shakes the trade lines...

[POJO_Risin]

Alright...I pushed through that deal for the wallbangers and Va Beach...

and two are out there from me on the table...

[redblkwht]

anything interesting dude?
enquiring minds wanna know ;)
kent is now on my block..
im sure mvp type he is, he will come around for sure in the
2nd half, just like lorretta too much to replace him, i dont know why
im guessing mark was my last year darkhorse that always seemed to
come tru.
so kent IS avail for takers..
need a 2baseman, gimme a holler!

[POJO_Risin]

Jesus...poor Kent...if I needed a 2B...I'd come a callin'...

alas...I don't...

I have sent you a deal...check it out...not for Kent...much smaller in scale...

and...in a surprise move...Maggs...off the DL...and DHing tomorrow...

;)

Dude...I think you would cry if I told you the deal I was going to offer you for Bonds and Sheets...lmfao...

[POJO_Risin]

alright rbw...you didn't counter...but you know who I want...

we start there...before we get to anyone else...;)

I'm kinda curious who you'd think is equal to slappy...been trying to get him all season...and had a deal including one of those players...yeah...one...that would have been accepted had I not pulled it out of idiotic fairness to you having talks at first...lmfao...

whatever...

you know who I want...but have a feelin' it's goin' south already...

[redblkwht]

nah, lemme look gotta hit the hay real soon though..
dont bet me out yet.

[POJO_Risin]

Well...I'm not going anywhere...lmfao...

[redblkwht]

rebound..bach atcha....
ya like table tennis bro? lol-

[redblkwht]

hek i got another one in my sleeve i got 7 min till 2am gotta roll then
bro
pre sale store all meetingat 7 am, yuk.

[POJO_Risin]

LMFAO!!!

The guy you asked for was the guy I was going to put with Maggs in that deal...I shit you not...

alas...I just don't need the second piece of that puzzle...as much as I'd like to have him...I already did!

I can't do that deal though bro...I don't know that I can come back with anything RIGHT NOW for the initial player...

I'm trying to fry a bigger fish...and I need to keep all my pieces until I exhaust them...

[redblkwht]

check yahoo..time is ticking im my 4 hrs sleep.:eek:

[POJO_Risin]

Hey...read the e-mail that was sent with that one...

[redblkwht]

hopefully we connect a deal sooner tomorrow then..
laterz:lookie:

[POJO_Risin]

If you have another one in mind...send it...

[ALinChainz]

Originally posted by POJO_Risin

I haven't the foggiest what it would take to get Beltran back. He has yet to get as hot as he was for you, so still needing some return from him.

Hopefully the week I'm having holds out, and it's the beginning of an unearthing of this rag I call a team.

Beltran, Bonds, Burnitz, and Guillen should be solid enough, now if I can get my pitching fucking producing something.

[POJO_Risin]

Well...if you're interested in dealing Beltran...I could certainly put something together...

I need another outfielder...

[POJO_Risin]

The Tribe is absolutely laying an egg this week...lmfao...

the Va factor...

I need to bat about .800 over the next to days to salvage a few points out of this one...

[ALinChainz]

Ain't easy being in first bro.

Not that I would know.

[POJO_Risin]

LMFAO...don't I know it...

well...

I got two days left...just trying to keep that fucker from making up all 8 games in one week...after today...I'm in a heapload of fucking trouble...

his team stepped it up this week...that's for sure...fucking ARod needs to break out of this slump...

[ALinChainz]

The race is heating up.

Again, not that I would know.

But absolutely up there where y'all is ... she's getting a tad tight.

[POJO_Risin]

It's been all year...but...it makes for the possibility of someone sneaking up from the bottom...

[ALinChainz]

cue the JAWS music ...

lol ... right ... I know some shit best get changing for me in this thing or I'm just not going to be pleasant what-so-fucking-ever.

[POJO_Risin]

LMFAO...listen to this guy...

RBW...what was this other brilliant deal you had for me?...lmfao...

try not to overcomplicate...I'm from the south...I confuse easily...

[POJO_Risin]

Down 7-1...there goes my wonderful one-week lead...

ah well...back to the drawing board...lmfao...

what can you do...nice job Va...so far...

I need a fucking miracle...

goddamned Jason Bay...may the clap follow him at ever turn in his life from this point on...

[POJO_Risin]

And goddamned Billy Wagner getting 2 fucking wins this week...jesus christ...

[POJO_Risin]

I'm going to burn in hell...twice...

[Va Beach VH Fan]

Well, you only have to thank yourself, follow me here....

Two huge points to be made....

#1 - You pushed the Bay-Jones deal through a day early, and if you look at the stats, would've swung the overall to probably 5-3 instead of 7-1....

#2 - I had to get online just before gametime because I have so many iffy players due to their injuries (Bay, Ramirez, Beltre).... Sportsbeat reported that Bay was starting at 6:30.... I added Bay to my lineup five minutes before gametime.... :D

Having said all that though, Christ it's still very close, and could swing easily this weekend....

BTW, since you're in the mood to push deals through early, why don't you do the same to the Delgado-Ford deal me and WARF made ???

[POJO_Risin]

Hey Va...if you want...I can go into the trust commish tools...and fix that for ya if you want...set it up so his stats don't start until today..lmfao...

Hell...if I put Ford through...he'll probably go 6-6 with 6 dingers...

you know Delgado's going to go off now don't you...

[POJO_Risin]

Yo Va...by the way...even if I push it through today...which I will...it won't go through until tomorrow...;)

so you won't get your 6-6 until tomorrow...

[POJO_Risin]

Alright...Players on the block...

Hank Blalock
Edgar Renteria
Mike Sweeney
Matt LeCroy
Rocco Baldelli
Aubrey Huff
Mark Teixeira

[Fairwrning]

like i said....as soon as i trade Bay..he comes off the bench and goes off:rolleyes:

at least i can maybe gain ground on the leader..

[POJO_Risin]

Brian Giles

on the block as well...

[Fairwrning]

Troy..your offense is killin me this week..last time i think it was pitching..i gotta avoid you in the playoffs man..

[POJO_Risin]

LMFAO...Troy is like that...mr. multidimensional...doing the pitching deal with smoke and mirrors...

and then his offense comes out of nowhere...

[Troy]

I do what I can! ;)

[POJO_Risin]

Troy...the fantasy rookie...handing the vets their asses...lmfao...

[Va Beach VH Fan]

Just let me get healthy, that's all I ask....

Gonna act like Bobby Bouchet and open up a can of whoop ass all over again....

[POJO_Risin]

I was better when I wasn't healthy...

and fucking Wagner...2 wins...the bastard...I hope he has Hemmeroids for life...
