Fantasy MLB 2007

[MVP]

Interesting offer I just received

I get:
Andruw Jones
Homer Bailey

I give up:
Jamie Shields
Octavio Dotel

Even though Shields has had 2 bad games recently, I still think he's gonna have a stellar season. Dotel I really don't care too much about because I think he'll eventually get hurt again or blow it as the Royals closer, not to mention the Royals don't get too many saves anyway. Bailey hasn't proven himself yet, but he's better than a vast majority of SP already.

Basically I'm getting a 2nd round draft pick who's having a terrible season so far and a rookie protege for two players I picked up off waivers.

[FakeLaser]

As posted on the roto message board:

I have a plethora of 1st baseman and outfielders, I could use a pitcher. I'm looking to deal Helton, Cuddyer or Pence. I'll listen to offers for Adrian Gonzalez or Corey Hart as well.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Finally back in first in the roto league. Just gotta hold on now for the last 12 weeks of the season.

Seriously though a big thank you to whoever dropped Chone Figgins and Brad Hawpe. This couldn't have been possible without you. :kiss:

[YOUR Hero]

dropping Chone (in the h2h) wa a huge mistake, BUT Gooner (or ct2k) picked him up and then dropped him whilst he was heating up. I was lucky to get him back. Yup. Say what you want but Figgins gets the #'s.

you are welcome about Hawpe. :'(

Oh. Another guy that's been doing very well, Shane Victorino (OF) well, I'm actually looking to move him. I have BJ Upton coming off the DL soon and well I like his inf. ability.
Victorino is putting up real nice #'s. He's like a Sizemore. He ain't Sizemore, but comparable #'s

[YOUR Hero]

PS

I looked it up, I dropped Figgins in the Roto league too...

In my defence I dropped him to pick up Cano...

...

[toxic rooster]

Yeah, some fuckarse got Victorino about an hour before I was gointa pick him up :mad:

The same arsehole that won't give me Sizemore, I believe.

[YOUR Hero]

so are you interested in Victorino?

I'll make or you make a trade dealie.

Sizemore is like one of my favourite players, so I got a real affinity for him. However if you offer up the right thing, I'd move him in lieu of Victorino.

[toxic rooster]

Well

whaddaya you know....looking for?

[YOUR Hero]

pretty happy rite now with my team... just sayin.

I have to get out of here for work, but look it over. Um.. first thing that comes to mind if a swap of SS's and then maybe a pitcher (Lowe??) for Victorino.

As for Sizemore, I dunno... kinda now thinking against moving him :/

Anyway I'll think about it tonight after work.

[FakeLaser]

Corey Hart is the man.

Don't switch the blade on the guy in the shades

Anyway, still need some pitching.

[YOUR Hero]

Hart is doing what I thought Duncan would for the Cards

[toxic rooster]

...and my quest to gain like the entire Indians roster gathers steam.





Is Barfield still a free agent? :shifty:

[YOUR Hero]

I'm almost afraid of that trade :(

Ah well, no guts no glry, heh?

[toxic rooster]

I gave you Hanley Ramirez, who you've been lusting after all year.

Just remember that next time the thought of banning Wee Gooner crosses your mind ;)

[YOUR Hero]

Hanley replaces Sizemore in runs and steals. Should get more steals, loose HR's

[mrslackalack]

I cant believe that in the fantasy league that I was in that Jake Peavy nor Brad Penny was drafted

[YOUR Hero]

Get real. eavy is ranked a high # overall, so is Penny to a certain degree. How many teams in your league, 2?

[ct2k]

Good grief, worst offensive week I've had by far, fucking awful

[YOUR Hero]

Fantasy Baseball's All Star team.


Catcher:
Russell Martin

First Base:
Prince Fielder

Second Base:
Chase Utley

Third Base:
A-Rod

Short Stop:
Jose Reyes

Outfield:
Grady Sizemore
Magglio Ordonez
Gary Sheffield

Starter 1:
Jake Peavy

Starter 2:
Johan Santana

Starter 3:
Dan Haren

Reliever 1:
Fransisco Cordero

Reliever 2:
JJ Putz



These are what Yahoo has posted as fantasy baseball's All Star lineup.
Looks sound.
Based on Fantasy #'s, what do you think?

[MVP]

I would have J.J. Putz be the 1st reliever and Takashi Saito as the 2nd, and maybe Ichiro instead of Sheffield in OF.

[SammyG]

uuhhh. Where's Penny?!

[Nervous Ferret]

Other than maybe Maine, could you really say that Penny Fantasy-wise has been better than any of those?

[YOUR Hero]

Yean, it's no slight against Penny, but as fantasy #'s go, he doesn't quite make it.

[VonErichLives]

my apology to my league, I really thought I'd have more time to follow and didn't see me not being able to find time to set my pitchers once a week.

I deserve the last place team.

[FakeLaser]

Scared to see how I've done since I've been gone for a week.

[RoXer]

I had the perfect name for my team this year too.

I'l just use it for my pick'em

[ct2k]

So as far as the rookies in our league are concerned (ie me and Wee Gooner) I have quite obviously proven myself superior in every way

[YOUR Hero]

I got beat in one league already. Terrible. :nono:

[ct2k]

Can't see that happening in our matchup:o

[toxic rooster]

Losing Grady ended up really kinda shitting on me :(

But it was soooooooooooooooo worth it :cool:

[YOUR Hero]

Grady has been slumping though. Hasn't produced real statistical valuable #'s. They were flip flopping him around in the line up too much.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

I always enjoy at the end of the season going back and looking at the draft and checking out some of the late round steals people got

In the roto league:

Round 21 Pick 2: Curtis Granderson by Busch's Bats
Round 20 Pick 10: Eric Byrnes by New Ro Cannons
Round 20 Pick 3: Joe Blanton by Black SOX
Round 19 Pick 9: Brandon Phillips by AZ D'Bags
Round 19 Pick 4: BJ Upton by Candy & Currant Buns
Round 19 Pick 3: Tim Hudson by New Ro Cannons
Round 18 Pick 7: Brad Penny by NerF's Revenge
Round 17 Pick 7: Kelvim Escobar by Böston Crüe
Round 17 Pick 2: Russell Martin by Busch's Bats


some pretty good deals

[weather vane]

good year boys

[YOUR Hero]

Thanks for the year. I did 3 leagues this year. That's too many. Thankfully I had a payoff in the one. On to hockey.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

A pretty solid year all around I'd say. 1st in the roto and 3rd in the h2h. I am happy.

[FakeLaser]

3rd, 2nd, 2nd, 1st

My finishes.

Decent year.

[FakeLaser]

I'd like to thank Ryan Braun, BJ Upton, Curtis Granderson, Hunter Pence, Corey Hart, Joakim Soria, Chad Billingsley and of course, Alex Rodriguez. I could not have done it without you guys.

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

9th place baby

[ct2k]

4th, not bad for my first year, big shout out to everyone in my league except Wee Gooner

[Supreme Olajuwon]

I finished 3rd in that league one spot behind FakeRazor and I am 100% positive it was because I told him to draft Brandon Phillips and then I was stuck with gay ass Howie Kendrick. Live and learn.

[YOUR Hero]

I won because I rule.
