vander- that is all i can come up with. makes no sense- but i think that is it.

unfortunately vander- they haven't. in most cases they are handed a monoploy. you have the only"whatever" in the washington area. plus- in most cases- the public (many of whom do not go to the games) pays for the stadium. the price appreciation is fantastic- george paid - i think -10 million for the...

ok i joined- i think i was 11. don't want to be a problem for everyone. i did one satelite on this site last year. i had trouble finding the players. can you just type in their names instead of scrolling? mike

i agree. but vo- limit yourself to 14 hitters. mike

do you have to be entered already to get in?

fyi-and no big deal- but for purposes of this draft i think vo's team is illegal. 6 outfield and thome. just happened to be checking his team for what he needed because i suspect he will take the player i want. mike

and there he is

dak, i think what he means is- you took one good closer and pitching late- 1 of many draft formulas. i inherited a team that picked santana 1st- it was nice to see if i could "catch up" in hitting. hope he returns- i think he is up.

19-7 tom glavine. brandon mccarthy? sometimes it pays to be picking just after trades are announced.

vander, me thinks you may be sandbagging a little. thanks to whoever rated me. vander i rated you.

i know you guys all did this already- but i looked at the top 4-6 teams from 06. from their original drafts- i would never have thought they would win. i bet if they had thrown those teams up for "the board" to review- they would have been criticized. they all had some great free agent pickups. thei...

sorry wrong thread

what do you vets think about when projecting a guy from the minors to the majors? i looked at hermida- he seemed to be really be hyped last year- big bust. he was hurt some- but not all year. he is young- but so are many guys. his speed didn't even transfer. i noticed a few things 1) he only played ...

emil brown kc

that was tradesmen that grabbed hermida. i think vo is up then me. mike

i agree. jeff kent is a hall of fame player. now he may not have much to drive in because pierre has stated he wants to be the ist player in the history of baseball whose on base % is lower than his batting average. with a steal rate at about 60% and a walk rate that is .0000000001% his "getting to ...

ok- i am going home- but i am sure you guys have been reading the "rumors". lets say dodgers get manny -they would play manny, pierre, probably either (really a left fielder) and betemit, furcal, kent, garciaparra and martin. the cubs are talking about trading jones, signing floyd (and if they didn'...

i think he has to

you are right- was checking while you were posting. wish you would have waited till my pick to catch this

i think mi stands for middle infielder- i think he qualifies.

agree- except your brain can always percieve value need or upside if it wants to.

they will have plenty of $- and your seat price will be $150

by the way- and it may seem counter to what i said before- but i like cabrerra for the same reasons edward kings brought up- i just don't think that there aren't 10 coaches that could do it also- but mazzone is the best bet ( actually second behind maddux in milwaukee- and maybe 4th behind the sox a...

some notes 1) zumaya was my next pick. from fantasy football: there is overall value and value to you. good backups are most valuable to the guys that have the starter. that (in my opinion) was the correct move- why risk it- you can get a decent pitcher later. 2)- leo mazz- i like him and i like a l...

i also would say my observation is - it is really tough to win not having a closer at this point- but like i said- that is the one problem with mocking this early- 10-15 ? at closer- so guys wait.
