I would have been there if the draft wouldn't have been in the middle of the night for me during the week.
But still, just take the time to look at the moves I made.
THAT'S why I am #1 at the moment.

I need a trade for a couple closers pleasehope to get some trade offers
Man Alamo your team is starting off hot. That computer must have really studied it's fantasy guides before the draft
How do you mean, this is average for my squad.
Don't you wish you had used the given pre-rankings to your advantage now?
Don't you feel ashamed that a pre-ranked auto drafted team is beating you after the 1st matchup day already?
If I had any baseball knowledge and drafted myself, I surely would have tried to outsmart the pre-rankings that were there for everybody to work with.
But still, don't cry too long young horn tooter.
It's all in the moves I made after the draft.
I just picked up Wakefield and look what he did yesterday.

Wakefield is so hit or miss I wouldn't bank on him. He could throw a 2 hit shutout one day and give up 10 runs the next
the Papelbon for Haren trade now looks like the genius move it was a month ago
Whott, whats the deal, you are no longer here to offer advice now that your team is 8-21?
I'd be insulted if you hadn't taken just about all my advice. As it is I'm just waiting for you to waive Bonaficio or whatever the his name is.
And you got raped on the Papelbon trade.
And one other bit of advice...anyone can talk at any time. As it is, you've talked more through the first 3 weeks of the season than everyone else in the entire history of the league combined, total, in all previous years.
But there's a hughe difference in talking and talking SHIIYYAAAAT.
like you dropping Dexter Fowler a couple days before he steals 5 bases then you pick him right back up thinking he will do it again? LMAO nice move![]()
Yeah it hasnt helped me much but I replaced Haren with a good pitcher in Felix Hernandez. Papelbon will get his saves and help me win that cat from time to time.
I would still be 0-3 in saves whether I had Papelbon or not, I wouldn't have won K's or ERA once if I didn't have Haren. For Whott to say I got fleeced is crazy, but then again, he has only won 8 times this year and likely only 9 after this week so maybe he doesn't understand genius baseball moves
Whott,
How come you chastise me for eventually dropping Bonifacio when you are basically doing the same thing with Nefi Morgan?
You don't see me on here talking about them being genius pickups.
Furthermore, I've waived and added them both probably 3 times apiece going to back to the first week of the season, not to mention several other players I'd done similar things with...and the reasoning behind it really has nothing to do with whether or not they can steal bases, for I know they can, they can steal 40 bases easily...the reason I keep adding and dropping them is because it doesn't matter how many bases they can steal if the manager won't let them steal them, because he doesn't want to take the bats out of his havy hitters hands...or keep them(basestealers) in the lineup.
Furthermore I aslo want runs which has the been the weakest part of my offense so far...and while I know Fowler will score runs if he's kept in the lead, he's not a full time player yet...it's possible Morgan won't score runs even if he get every day PT, because his lineup is not that potent and neither is their park.
And that's what I am trying to figure out. I already know they'll both be good pickups for the purpose of stolen bases and possibly runs, if they are allowed to be...it's one thing to figure who the players that can put up the numbers are, quite another for the manager to actually let them do it.
For instance, the Astros have a pretty decent running team, but for some reason they flat out refuse to run like they did last season.
And don't get too full of yourself...
My team sucks right now, part of it is because I drafted second half players, part of it is injuries, part of it is that my team actually is sucking right now, in particular my best players(supposedly) are currently my worst...
It also doesn't help that I've played 3 of the top 5 hottest teams(key word being hot)in viritually every offensive category the first 3 weeks of the season.

I could use that same excuse since my #1 pick is hitting .180 with 1SB, Lester has sucked, Alex Gordon is out for a couple months, and Scott Baker is getting s ed...
But You Hang It, I Bang It doesn't make excuses, we just produce results.
Yeah well if it was just one player my team wouldn't suck...it's my two best pitchers and like 5 of my top 4 hitters. There's no way they'll suck this bad fore the entire season...it's not an excuse, it's just a completely accurate assessment of the reality of this situation.
Meanwhile...Bonaficio is not a basestealer, you just think he is right now.
And while we're on this subject...would someone tell Soscia to pull his head out of his ass and stop trying to destroy his potential 40hr/40sb 3b/ss as his team goes down the tubes.
is that why he has 6 Stolen Bases?
and the player I was referring to was Jimmy Rollins who got his first SB last night, but is still hitting under .200
Blockbuster Trade number 2 is in the works!!
Won't turn out any better than Haren on You Hang It, I Bang It
computer based teams are like having a bake contest and going and getting pre-made cookie dough cookies to enter the contest. It shows no skill, no strategy, nothing. Just let the computer do it all for you.
Move #17 executed and #18 in the works young horn tooter.
Oh and by the way, you are trailing 3-7 by now.
Teahan: 2/16 this week.
You just hang!
I took a flyer on Teahen bc I watched spring training, the computer took a flyer on Jorge Cantu who for whatever reason is Lou Gerihg/Babe Ruth this week. That's the difference, you made minor moves that really don't matter and you hid behind the foundation the computer drafted for you. There is no coincidence that you and Atrain are leading- the computer drafts very well and give you very deep teams and sets you up to win, it takes out any bit of skill out of it.
I'll talk to anyone but you and ATrain because you 2 are computers, I'd just talk to a microwave and get further

Hahahaha, I am enjoying this week a lot.
Dude, YOU SUCK! You got the biggest mouth in here and you ain't absolutely got nothing to show for. You should have drafted better than the pre-rankings that my computer used.
And no, I am not trading Hudson to you.
You could have taken him yourself before my computer took him in the 26th round.
