[Berzerker]

Boston TeamNames (illram)
NIMRODS (Nimrod)
Keppinger's Krew (Snoopy)
Calamitous Intent (Guynemer)
Fist's Sox (Fistandilitus)
Dallas Dwarf Tossers (Slowwhand)
Berz (Berz)
Blazing Logs (Mike)

Dont know if Mike will be using the same name. Nimrod posted at yahoo he cant get the thread.

I'll do the draft order and thread today

12-0 over Nimrods last week makes me feel a bit better for my early round hockey playoff loss. Have we had any 12-0 perfectos in past history of these leagues (over a team that's being actively managed, at least)?

I did a couple of years ago but I think there were 2 DL in my opponent linenup

[snoopy369]

Anybody need a corner infielder or an outfielder? I have BJ Upton and Freddie Freeman sitting on my bench, plus Pablo Sandoval at Util, all essentially extra players at this point (any of the three is a good choice at Util right now). I'd take offers for any of those, plus any of the guys in the regular spots at 1B/3B/OF. In return either an upgrade at 2B, an OF upgrade over Bruce/Upton [both of whom I expect to improve, so this would be a better player than their expected value], or a much better player 2 for 1, or perhaps a SP/RP upgrade, though I don't value RPs very much, and my SPs are all pretty good (Cole Hamels I expect will return to form).

[SlowwHand]

Meanwhile, the piss-poor Rangers swept Boston. The terrible pitching is holding it together while the hitting gets on track. Yu Darvish is better than Hamels or probably anyone else.
Suckers.

[SlowwHand]

EDIT. Forget it. You've shown your colors.

[snoopy369]

What do you think, Sloww... Pablo Sandoval and Jordan Zimmerman for Robinson Cano and Allen Craig? I'd send you some Texas Rangers but sadly I'm fresh out.

[SlowwHand]

Why would I trade to a player in 1st place? Do you think I'm in the Cubs front office?

[snoopy369]

It's week 6, I hardly think being in first place by a few games makes a big difference; and you would want to trade because it improves your team, I'd think.

[SlowwHand]

I really misspoke. I'm not Jerry Jones trading down with the 49ers. Throw in that I don't think Cano is costing me games and it's pretty much resolved.

[SlowwHand]

The Rays won with a walk off walk? I don't think I've ever seen or heard of such. I'm sure it's probably happened, but it's a first for me.

[snoopy369]

Happens all the time. Especially when the other team's closer is someone like Marmol or whatnot and likes to walk people.
