I had a trade going, some players I was going to cut, a sudden DL. Oh, well.
It's early in the week,but I have the pitching. As a for instance, K/BB is 13.33.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

My pitching stinks; hopefully cliff lee will turn things around for me."Comment

You got him exactly as he came off the DL. I started not to trade him, he was the 2nd pitcher that I drafted and I never got to use him, but WTF. I need my hitting to hit on all cylinders, which it hasn't.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

I think Holds is a pieceof**** stat. Yeah, it's early, but I think so far I haven't seen enough Holds league-wide to make it a viable alternative. It's bogus. You get a Hold, you win that category. That's trash.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

Holds suck ass. They should be much easier to come by - say if a reliever doesn't give up any runs in a situation where his team is within three runs of the other team."Comment
-
I dont understand the problem, holds are basically just saves - we roughly doubled our closer pool. Would you get rid of saves too?Comment
-
Yes."Comment

You lost that vote too
and I lost on triplesComment

Holds aren't Saves or they'd be called Saves. We have it as a stat, and that's it, but I don't have to think it worthwhile.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

same basic rules apply to saves and holds, one guy throws the 8th, the other throws the 9th.Comment

I don't understand all this hate for relieversComment

TEF picked up Rod Barajas. Make sure you only play him when their facing the Phillies.

A bit of useless stats shamelessly copied and pasted form the league page to show strengths and weaknesses of each team.

It seems the first two teams in the standings (Fist's Sox and Dallas Dwarf Tossers) base their success on different things, the first one being focused on offense, the latter one loaded with awesome piching.
Season just started and it will be a long one, we'll see the adjustments managers make as the season progresses.
P.S.
8 quality starts in 7 days is wrong on so many levels I dunno where to start, shame on you Sloww.Comment
