Did the standings update, or did they just run them twice this morning?

Does anyone know what happened here? I can contact STATS if this is still a problem. Let me know.

[/QUOTE]It doesn't show the +/-, but we went from #74 to #70 overall with a solid day so apparently some changes were made.

did the stats run last night?

kinda frustrating to want to watch how much you (and other teams) move up or down, but you can't because the "Change" is 0.0 for all the teams.

can we get this fixed moving forward? thanks.

Not an impressive year for STATS

Anyone notice this guy named Childs has somehow worked his way back into the top 20? Simply amazing!!!

As long as nobody tells Shawn that Andrew Jones is the worst offensive player in baseball, the rest of us still have a chance

[/QUOTE]Hey I am playing Andruw as well. LOL Injuries and a gut hunch made me do it, not sure why Shawn is though.

Mr. Childs still has to worry about winning his overall league title 1st.

If he wins the league title there is a good chance of a overall top 10 finish included.

Good luck everyone,

how can u sit andruw he is so good defensively!!....plus he he is on pace for 3hr, 17 rbis and 101 k's....micah is a better hitter...but he is sooo good defensively(being redundant on purpose)....he is no cal ripken thats for sure(inside joke)!!! the sad thing is he will finish in the top 10 with or without that STIFF!!

[/QUOTE]Is he all done? Was it his knee? Or was it his head? He is a stiff for sure and I hope I don't have to play him. I will have a couple of other options if some of my players come off the DL. He survived the All-Star break. When you have him in your lineup, he looks like such a bum. If he is on your bench, you think he is a waste of a roster spot. If he is on the waiver wire, you say to yourself....he is intriguing because he has done it in the past and he is worth a ride if you have a lineup problem. There is nothing worse than someone beating you with you ex-players. So it's either he is DOA or you find someone who can match him even if he gets hot. I think he will be on my bench this week, but I might need to play him.

Good luck everyone, Chris...you can have the league title..I'll keep trying to catch Quahogs. You've done a nice job with some pick ups when you had some injuries. I couldn't take Parra anymore. He's been a stud for you. If the Bonderman injury is a week earlier, I probably don't cut him.

He does not look anywhere close to a major league hitter, and he doesn't seem to care. If I were a dodger fan, I would rather have the pitcher batting in a big spot than Jones. He strikes out most out in every big spot and laughs about it as walking back to the dugout, the dodger fans just hate him. I went and pulled up your team and was suprised to see him in your lineup. I agree he is worth taking a risk and stashing on your bench if you have room, but I would rather have anybody else in the league starting in my lineup. Just bothers me to see a guy just out there to collect a paycheck. 10 RBI's in 165 AB is pathetic (and 14 RBI's behind Juan Pierre), not to mention his .164 BA.

It should be a very exciting 2nd half of the season that is for sure!!!

Shawn by the way nice pick up on Gallagher this week. You bid 52 and I bid 51. He could turn out to be a stud if the A's keep him as the 4th starter.

Good luck ....

Good luck .... I was wondering who that was. I thought that you didn't need anymore starters. With Peavy healthy and your addition to your staff, you should continue to make up some pitching points. It's too bad about Saito. As soon as you start getting your team on track, you get another injury to slow down the momentum.

captain · Post by **captain** » Wed Jul 16, 2008 5:30 am

Yeah that was me Shawn....

I thought there was too much upside on Gallagher not to bid on him.

Unfortunately injuries are part of baseball and hopefully I can overcome this Saito thing... Now it looks like Byrnes could be done for the year also...
