Looks like Jackdog needs to pick up Bronson Arroyo on waivers.

I would have thought WM Pena would bring more in return than a 29 year old journeyman SP with a guitar.

There were rumours that the Pirates were dealing Craig Wilson for Arroyo. Whew!

JD, on paper, your offense looks awesome. Great job drafting.

Thanks Piggy! I am the kiss of death to the players I pick.

I drafted Bonds last year with my first pick. We all know how that turned out.

guys, PM Jack as he is holding the money. It is up to him if he wants to hold actual cash.

Paypal is easy once you get an account set up.

nyisles16 · Post by **nyisles16** » Tue Mar 21, 2006 4:37 pm

OK, after week 1 Jackdog has the ealry lead. I will post weekly standings here.

JD's Reds are scoring lots of runs and his 1st place standing is reflecting that.

Many top flight staters got shelled this week and that has hurt many teams ERA and WHIP.

DB gets the nod for pick of the draft so far with Chris Shelton. What a week.

1. Jackdogs Redlegs 84
2. S.D. Pigpen Dodgers 77.5
3. fanatic's isotopes 74
4. Fighting Iguanas 64.5
5. MattKs Mudpuppies 64
6. SF_Zexpos T-car 63.5
7. Db's NuLLseTz 62
8. nyisles16 hitmen 53
9. Leebo's LFers 47.5
10. Chapel Hill Soapmen 41.5
11. Brando's Cow Tippers 28.5

Looking forward to seeing how it all plays out. I might have stocked up too high on pitching...

Heads rolled today at the Cow Tipper organization. Holy crap, does my team smell.

Chris Shelton is my dogg. If only they'd get some guys on base in front of him.

dbdynsty25 · Post by **dbdynsty25** » Thu Apr 13, 2006 3:34 pm

Chris Shelton is my god. Another homer today...up to 7 now. WTF.

Definitely the draft pick of the year so far. All the way down in the 18th round.

He's on fire Scott. Unreal.

And yet you are still in 6th place

Woopee after a whole two weeks. I'm hurt.

If my pitchers didn't pitch like the real life Braves, I'd be fine. Horrible, horrible pitching. I'm in the top portion of every offensive category but SB's and last in almost all of the pitching categories...not a good combination.

Leebo33 · Post by **Leebo33** » Fri Apr 14, 2006 11:30 am

I knew I was in trouble when 6 guys got hurt in the first few days. I think 3 or 4 of them went to the DL, but I guess we can only place one. It also doesn't help when you forget to start a pitcher that wins. It's tough to keep up with it. I swear Yahoo didn't have that ^ by Morris when I selected my lineup. I'll have to check another site to see if guys are starting.

pigpen81 · Post by **pigpen81** » Fri Apr 14, 2006 11:45 am

Haha, last Saturday I was on top of the world with a sub 2 era and sub 1 whip...then Peavey gets BOMBED....as well as every other pitcher I have....then I knowingly leave Crhis Young out of my line-up...he pitches 6 shutout innings...while Escobar and Verlander get BOMBED....needless to say, that sub 2 ERA is now over 6.

Unbelievable.

Fantasy Baseball....you have to love it....and I definitely do.

I know I shouldn't be aiding the competition, but if I win I want to do it legit.

I always replace a starter the day after e pitches with a guy on the bench. That way, even if the manager starts a guy unexpectedly I should already have him in the lineup. It's a little tricky at times, like the start of the season. I think I had 4 guys pitching opening day. As the seasons goes on they tend to stagger better.
