August 26, 200520 yr Nah, it was always 'maybe next week', 'I'll give you guys 2 days' notice', etc. I shoulda known. Only consistent pitcher on my fantasy team=doomed.

Only consistent pitcher on my fantasy team=doomed. f*** man, I'm right there with ya. This one definitely hurts. I held off making a big deal for a pitcher at the trade deadline in my money league because Halladay was supposed to be back.
August 27, 200520 yr I swapped Rivera for Clemens after the leg break and it turns out it was a good move. Still, I liked the idea of having both for my playoffs.
August 27, 200520 yr QUOTE(Sonik22 @ Aug 27, 2005 -> 03:55 AM) well there goes my jays. I'm rooting for the Jays. They're one big bat away from being a pretty good contendor. Their rotation of Halladay-Bush-Lilly-Chacin-McGowan isn't the best, but it's above average. But, they need that Carlos Delgado-like bat in the middle of their lineup...
August 27, 200520 yr The chances of Buehrle or Garland winning the Cy-Young has shot up significantly.

They're supposed to be increasing their payroll a little next year. That will be a fun division to watch in the next couple years. A gillion dollar Red Sox team, a zillion dollar Yankee team, a very, very solid offensive team in Baltimore(who are some pitchers away from being contenders), and then you have the sabermetric Blue Jays with an increasing payroll. f***in' parody. There is a chance that, atleast in the AL, there will be no sellers next year...atleast for the Sox. The top 4 teams in the East are going to try and contend, and are all almost guaranteed atleast .500, signifying to me no sellers(and knowing TB, they won't sell s***, because they'll ask for Broadway, Gonzalez, and Young for Baez, or something ridiculous like that). The top 4 teams in the Central are all going to be good, and it's not like they were going to deal with the Sox anyways. And every team in the West will be atleast decent as well. Seattle's SP may need a little boost, but King Felix is good(*understatement of the year*).
August 27, 200520 yr 3-man race for the Cy Young Buerhle Colon Garland Tough having two guys from the same club.

August 27, 200520 yr Since Garland has faded a bit since ealrier in the year and Mark had a rough patch and feel behind in wins, its hard not to admit that Bartolo Colon is the most deserving guy as of this moment.
August 27, 200520 yr Who knows? But as of right now, Santana would get a few votes too. He's got the innings of Buehrle and Colon, plus better whip and more ks. Just doesn't have the wins. But he's not too far off, and he's ending this season like the last one. It'll be -- funny? sad? -- if the only thing the winner has over the also rans is 20 wins.
