I'm here. Let's chat.

Where is this chat?

In WI

Is there an actual chat room?

No actual chat room. Just post your questions in this thread and we'll chat away.

Last year someone posted the average totals per category , is there any way to get 2005 totals. and when do I lose the "Junior" next to my name.

Tom, I am curious if you have ran across this before....I am participating in one of the satellites and upon registration, I was able to login ok. I was placed in the wrong league, so after this was corrected, I attempt to login and I keep seeing my football teams from last year.



Has anyone else experienced this? Or should I feel "special?" I was gonna send Greg an e-mail but wasn't to worried about it at the present time. Was just curious if it had happened before

I'm not sure how many posts before you lost the "junior" but all of the stats from last year are available on your home page.

Ahh I see - I have a question about young Diamondbacks - Jackson and Quentin.



Does Jackson keep the starting job all year?



Does Quentin take Byrnes job away this year?

Was just curious if it had happened before You should be seeing all of the teams you've signed up for, includling those for the NFFC. That's how STATS has the site set up.

Even the average totals per catergory ?

[/QUOTE]That's what I thought. Will send e-mail to see if it can be fixed. Possibly when I was switched something happened.





Any thoughts on the Piazza signing?

Does Quentin take Byrnes job away this year? I think Conor Jackson will be the guy at 1B but Clark will still get his ABs. The D'Backs like Conor a lot though so they will give him every chance to succeed. I think Quentin has a shot to earn pretty good playing time this season -- maybe he won't start right away but I wouldn't be surprised if he is the starter eventually.

If at all...how long do you think the D-rays hold off on playing Young and Upton. Young seems to be ready despite his lack of "true" experience, but Upton just can't seem to learn how to play in the field. They claim bad footwork, but all of those errors are scary.



Any thoughts on these two?

I think Piazza is a shell of his former self and going to SD isn't going to help his power numbers. Best-case scenario for Piazza is around 20 HRs this season IMO and that may be optimistic. I got him as my No. 2 catcher in the KP2 league real late this week and I'm happy with him in that role.

Upton needs to improve his defense or else the D'Rays may send him right back to the minors again. But if he shows to even be adequate he'll get his shot. Young is a serious talent but the D'Rays don't seem sold on him for some reason. I wouldn't be surprised if they dealt him.

Yea, that park can only hinder him. How late did you get Piazza?

I believe it was in the 19th round

People down here want to see him, but I don't know if they are gonna give in to us. That is, the few fans there are down here. Very sad when baseball can't make it in Florida.....Marlins/D-rays

What's your thoughts on Doumit? I know he didn't receive any love in your mag...but for some reason I like him and expect big things...Am I missing something besides Cota still vying for time?

okay - look at Glavine's 2nd half numbers last year - those rank him as one of the best pitchers in the National League. I have him for $3 - is there any way I throw him back?



Is Tommy G on the verge of a revival - just as he reaches the end of a long contract?
