Not when Olerud ends up standing on third at the end of 85% of his hits lately.

Im probably going to play around with my lineups in whatif for against RHP. Whatever is in there for the Reds and Tigers just go with

I was rooting hard for the stros that year, I had gone to one of their games that season against the giants.

I can't help but think my team is gonna tread water for a few more games and then the bottom is gonna fall out.

Maybe I can clone Luke Appling and Shoeless Joe.

You're dead to me.

Forgot about that. No point bringing in a runner when he's already 90 feet away!

I set my lineups and simmed a few games. It should be good to go.

I like the Astros. I have family in Houston and have probably been to 10 stros games between the dome and minute maid.

Appling back over .400 after a pair of monster game against Houston.

Cy Young is really turning guys season around.

I realize I posted these pretty late, so if they're wrong, let me know before I post the results tomorrow afternoon and I'll rerun your game if I need to.

The Tigers are facing two lefties, so it looks like you've got time to play around with that lineup. I'll run with what's in there for the Reds though.

Day eighteen has been run.

I can't wait for more Red Sox dominance.

I'm starting to think this should be an annual tournament. We should do it every September/October. I'm already thinking of what I'd want to do differently next time.

Who knew what this would become when you originally suggested doing this.

I still look forward to reading the game logs as much as I did on Day 1. I don't think any of us could have anticipated how awesome this would be.

Now we just have to re-run the post-strike era tournament with a longer format!

Someone go wake up Lament.

I think only you and Skitch are allowed to.

You have Twitter.
