April 25, 200817 yr Author comment_9744 Glad I listened to espn about Liriano.Also you talked up Braun so much last year and how he can do 40/40 and luckily I didn't draft him this year. He finally today got his first steal. Now he is only 2 behind Reyes who had 78 last yr. I didnt draft him anywhere this yr. He was going way to early for my tastes. I went with Aramis wherever I didnt get Arodm Wright or Miggy.
April 25, 200817 yr comment_9746 Glad I listened to espn about Liriano.Also you talked up Braun so much last year and how he can do 40/40 and luckily I didn't draft him this year. He finally today got his first steal. Now he is only 2 behind Reyes who had 78 last yr. I didnt draft him anywhere this yr. He was going way to early for my tastes. I went with Aramis wherever I didnt get Arodm Wright or Miggy. That is why I didn't draft him also. But also it's why I didn't draft Ankiel. Obviously I like Ankiel, but he was going too high in 10th round. Now he has cooled off and his average is way down. I am just glad people drafted Braun early where I wouldn't have decided to get him. I do regret not having aramis, but I have wright, figgens, and I forget who else at 3b. Also glad I didn't draft Reyes. And look at rollins. Those 2 and soriano (both sorianos) have been disasters. I dumbly risked Harden again too. He obviously NEVER will stay healthy. I should trade him if he comes back and has a 20 k game. But I will be tempted to fall for it again and think I should keep him.
April 25, 200817 yr comment_9748 Great. I never like having rockies closers and this year I dumbly believed corpas would be good and now I have tow aive him for nothing.
April 26, 200817 yr Author comment_9753 I thought he would be good to. Just only drafted him in 1 yahoo team. Cbs league mistakes hurt more.
April 26, 200817 yr comment_9755 Saltalamacchia recalled and he got picked up too fast for me to get him in the league I need him in.
April 26, 200817 yr comment_9756 Right as I mention that you and others drafted Ankiel too high, he was just waived in one of my leagues.
April 26, 200817 yr comment_9759 Would LOVE to know why int he world someone did this trade. They traded morneau and mclouth for... corey hart alone. Umm??????? What has Hart done ever??? Morneau was a mvp. And so far it still needs 1 protest to have the 4 it needs. And I seriously doubt it's collusion though becuase that guy tried trading me mrneau also. Someone just waived Sherrill also. So in the same league a closer and ankiel have been waived, but neither is worth a #1. Although maybe sherrill IS worth even the #1 considering how valuable a closer can be in daily.
April 28, 200817 yr comment_9764 Thanks a lot for telling me that AFTER I let him pass to someone else. I have rivera, wagner, and saito for my closers. I had corpas and waived him now. Would have been nice adding Sherril.
April 29, 200817 yr Author comment_9771 I know he's on a shitty team but dosent he have like 8 saves already?
April 29, 200817 yr comment_9773 Yes, but his stats aren't good and most thing he will slide backward. I don't think you would have used a #1. Youa lways say closers come and closers go.
May 1, 200817 yr comment_9784 I really think it won't be long before Marmol is the cubs closer. Wood already has 3 blown saves and a 5 e.r.a. while Marmol is down around 2. Unfortunately he is not available. And even if he was I have nor oom to fit him even though I badly need closers.
May 3, 200817 yr comment_9795 I need one, but I can't fit one anywhere or it means waiving good players such as bondermna. Someone else waived brett myers. Ia lready picked him up in 1 league earlier with a #1.
May 4, 200817 yr comment_9799 Wow. I forgot to claim Brett Myers in time with my #1 and he totally cleared and so I didn't have to use my waiver claim for him. I also picked up rj as a FA in another league. \ Now I somewhat regret picking up myers in that other league with my #1, but I already am back up to a #3 so I guess it barely even hurt me anyway. I now own Myers in all three leagues, which was a pretty big factor in me wanting to get him in this third one. In one league I now have TEN aces and 1 closer.
May 5, 200817 yr Author comment_9803 There's only 3 Aces in all of baseball, Santana, Peavy and Webb. After that there are Frontline Starters. Guys like Haren, Hamels and Harang are not Aces imho.
May 5, 200817 yr comment_9805 Exactly becuase those three don't perform like aces. On the other hand guys like Beckett, Zambrano, etc... do and are indeed aces. Many pitchers have better stats than Santana. Many have more wins than Peavy. And many have longer histories of doing good than Webb. Zimmerman worth a 3? Andruw worth a 1?
May 6, 200817 yr comment_9808 You love him. Another note on your aces comment: Santana isn't even the best person with his LAST NAME this season, let alone some outstanding ace.
May 6, 200817 yr comment_9812 hahaha funny I said that and then Ervin performed yet another masterpiece. i should be mad even though I proved that Johan is not at all above all these other pitchers, because I waived ervin a while back. lmao yes Johan is on such a higher level. Last year he finished 15-13 and this year he is 3-2. I sure can't find anyone else to beat that.
May 7, 200817 yr comment_9816 Heh. Meanwhile the player I called an ace, Zambrano, now is 5-1 with a 1.80 e.r.a.. He sure isn't an ace though, by your theory. Even though his stats are as good or bettter than the three you mentioned. Webb has more wins otherwise Zambrano is doing better than any of those. In fact Santana is not even in the top 10 in e.r.a. in his league. Someone waived Oliver. Worth a 1? I think not, but may use it anyway (In fact oliver waived in both leagues I don't own him in).
May 7, 200817 yr comment_9820 You drafted him everywhere. Why do you never answer other topics in this forum? It keeps being only me posting in them.
