Happy birthday, my friend!

Press 1 if you predicted before the season that Jose Bautista would be the first player to 40 HR this year. 1.

Wow, we filled the league much quicker than I expected. So is the draft time cool with everybody? And does anybody want any of the settings changed?

Horrible trade from day one. If you don't agree with me or think I'm an idiot, at least you can credit me for consistency.

Brandon Morrow has some of the absolute sickest stuff in baseball.

Javy Vazquez is bad at pitching. His fastball was topping out at 88?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 21, 2010 -> 02:14 PM) Sometimes the gambles pay off, and sometimes you look like the Mets. As much as I hate to admit this, I truly believe that with a reasonably healthy roster they're the top team in baseball.

By the way, if anybody who's joined knows of anyone(s) that would like to participate then by all means shoot them the info. All I ask is that they be active all year. I'd like to get this league filled ASAP.

QUOTE (dielac @ Aug 21, 2010 -> 01:13 PM) Sweet, I'm pumped. Can we make the 3rd WR slot a Flex WR/RB position? Let's get the league filled first and then we can talk about some of the settings.

I hope he fails. His ineptitude in '06 cost us a playoff appearance.

But has anybody ever had their eyebrows threaded? Holy f***ing s***! That s*** hurt like a b****. I'm going to a club tonight (celebrating a friend's b-day) and I thought I'd give it a try, as I have, well had, some pretty thick eyebrows that needed some cleaning up. It looked like I was crying like a girl after watching Titanic. I didn't expect that at all.

f*** it. I'll start the first one. 12 team, head-2-head league. Seems like people prefer Yahoo over ESPN. So it'll be Yahoo. Standard scoring categories. Anybody interested shoot me a PM and I'll give you the info. First come first serve. I assume one of the next couple Monday nights will be a good time to set the draft? And once again, if you're not really interested or if you have doubts you'll be active all year, do not join. No courtesy joins this year. I'd rather cancel the league than have some of the s*** that's going on in the baseball leagues (i.e. half the league not active and haven't been active in weeks).

lol@the Red Sox. Pedroia back on the DL. Ellsbury just got put back on the DL for like the 9th time this year. Cameron out for the year. Josh Beckett is doing his best Jamie Navarro impersonation. Yeah, they're done.

Nick Punto is bad at baseball. That's addition by subtraction.

Man, it'll be beyond sorry if we don't sweep this team. Has anybody heard of any of these three starters the Royals are running out there? I know Bullington won a game against the Yankees recently. But still. He's awful. NM. f***. We get Greinke Sunday.

QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ Aug 20, 2010 -> 04:13 PM) or how stupid it is to stress out so much about the manager. Either one One can understand that when your manager takes a guy who was about to be designated for assignment by one organization just before trading him for perpetual bum Brian Anderson and makes him his primary DH.

QUOTE (longshot7 @ Aug 20, 2010 -> 02:57 PM) I'm amazed by how many people who still think the Angels are any good. They're not. Well when your top 3 starters are Dan Haren, Jered Weaver and Ervin Santana you can't be all that bad. Losing Morales like they did has really killed them.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Aug 19, 2010 -> 10:36 PM) I think Paulie will be a White Sox next year. I still wish we had pulled off a Hudson + Flowers + Mitchell + others for AGon and had a Paulie/AGon platoon at first and DH. That would be a frightening combo. It would be even better seeing the year Flowers has had and having Sale to replace Huddy now. I don't think we ever had a chance of netting Gonzalez.

I just bookmarked this thread. I didn't mean to start all this. This is awesome.

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Aug 19, 2010 -> 10:23 PM) I would take Gonzalez in a heartbeat...Adrian plays half his games in a pitcher's park so his power numbers are gonna be lower than PK's. Petco plays a role. Just pointing out that PK has had a better year. And I would take about 7 1B over PK going forward. I'm just saying that with the year he's having, somebody is probably going to overpay in years and money. If it's not us, fine. But who the hell are we going to replace him with? And don't say Tyler Flowers. Obviously this is something to worry about in the off-season. But it's a big worry of mine.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Aug 19, 2010 -> 10:22 PM) Votto Whoops. Forgot about him. And even with him it's still damn close.

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Aug 19, 2010 -> 10:15 PM) That dude in San Diego says hi... Tell him I said hi right back. PK is having just as good a year, if not slightly better, than Gonzalez.

QUOTE (Brian @ Aug 19, 2010 -> 08:05 PM) I'm doing a youth movement in my keeper league with mu buddies. Easily keeping Posey and Stanton. QUOTE (chimpy2121 @ Aug 19, 2010 -> 10:07 PM) I'm so glad I got to see him play two seasons of collegiate ball. .368/.426/.589/1.015 since July 1. And that doesn't include tonight's 2/4, 1 R, 2 RBI. I thought Heyward was a mortal lock for the ROY with the way he started. But the award is Posey's to lose at this point. I'm so f***ing pissed I dropped him in favor of Carlos Santana in two of my fantasy leagues. But in my defense, couldn't foresee Santana getting hurt.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Aug 19, 2010 -> 10:08 PM) If it is, I sure hope he's not a White Sox next year. That's my point. I mean, other than Cabrera and Pujols, you have to struggle to find a more productive 1B this year. I figure he's going to get some pretty nice offers from other teams. Hopefully Viciedo is as good we think he is.

Is three years, 36 million the minimum PK is looking at right now?
