Stats up to date. They are updates in dropbox as well.


All-star break coming at a great time, as we used 8 of our 9 pitchers in Game 2 today.

[TBAMTS]

I definitely think there is a penalty for 1994 & 1995 players. F'n strike.

It seems like that in some cases, but 1994 Greg? Maddux was a demon for my LCS Era Team. 8-3, 2.39 ERA, 1.09 WHIP, 12 out of 14 Quality Starts, & a 5.47 K/BB ratio en route to a championship.

1995 Greg? Maddux is disappointing me. Only 86 pitches per start. WTF is that about?

'92 Maddux has thrown 299 pitches over his last 2 starts for me

And a pain in the ass to enter!

My Ace got a save!

Pfft, Randy Johnson got one in like... game 3.

But seriously, I love games where teams use starters out of the pen and all their bench players.

[@SkitchP]

Bobby Bonds even managed to get in!

John Gibbons doesn't seem to like using the Jays bench. Delgado and Encarnacion have been amazing... no one else has really had a shot.

I felt a void in my life today.

[numbers]

Seriously, I'm back into the "check RM the moment I wake up" routine again.

Seriously, I'm back into the "check RM the moment I wake up" routine again.

me too. Yesterday stip sent a PM to everyone who was online at 8:30a.m. begging for a tiebreaker in a March Madness vote. I was a recipient. It was a little creepy. He didn't even BCC people, just sent it to everyone. I can tell you everyone who was online at 8:30 a.m. yesterday.

[Jorge]

Argo why do unsolicited PMs unnerve you so much

[The Argonaut]

It just means that somebody wants something out of me, like a vote or some money.

[philpritchard]

Seriously, I'm back into the "check RM the moment I wake up" routine again.

Yeah, it went from "check as soon as my computer starts up at work" during the first tournament to "check while I'm getting ready for work" later on to "roll over and grab my phone to check while I'm waking up" the last couple tournaments. It's an addiction, basically, and I swear I felt some withdrawal symptoms this morning.

The wife is not pleased when I am checking my phone if I get up to go to the bathroom or something.
