Felicity in drop-Damaso-Marte shockah!

Biddle though.. hmmm, someone just picked him up in my other league as well. He must have done something. I guess I'm supposed to be, like, keeping up on this.

― Mr. Diamond (diamond), Thursday, 3 April 2003 05:04 (twenty-one years ago) link

Oh fuck, he's fucking closing. No wonder. Damn I could have used a closer in that other league.

― Mr. Diamond (diamond), Thursday, 3 April 2003 05:07 (twenty-one years ago) link

yeah, well I was this close to picking up Crawford for what it's worth

Who the hell is Many Turgid Corpses?

― mark p (Mark P), Thursday, 3 April 2003 11:02 (twenty-one years ago) link

we'll always have second place :(

How funny that Who Needs Pitching is leading the league in saves and holds!

Yeah, it hurt me more that it hurt Damaso to drop him but I realized I was missing out on a whole category of stats. Plus, I always liked Rocky Biddle. Such a cutie. One time he made a start aginst Mussina and Sports Center did a whole Rocky and Bullwinkle Moose thing.

― felicity (felicity), Thursday, 3 April 2003 12:18 (twenty-one years ago) link

Many Turgid Corpses is Kris (BranchRickey).

― felicity (felicity), Thursday, 3 April 2003 12:20 (twenty-one years ago) link

He just swiped my waiver request. It's ON.

― mark p (Mark P), Thursday, 3 April 2003 12:25 (twenty-one years ago) link

(He did it like an hour before it was supposed to go through, too. Jerk.)

― mark p (Mark P), Thursday, 3 April 2003 12:26 (twenty-one years ago) link

Travis 'Hugh' Hafner is looking pretty good for the Indians this year.

I write that only because I like saying 'Hugh' Hafner.

Fun, isn't it? (I like Woody "Tiny" Danzler)

OK everybody root for MarkKKKKKKK! It is MarKKKKKKK's big starting day!

― felicity (felicity), Thursday, 3 April 2003 14:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

Can somebody clarify for me why the standings show my team as having only 3 RBIs, and yet Jeff Bagwell (my starting 1B) has 4 RBIs on the season so far?

― hstencil, Thursday, 3 April 2003 14:11 (twenty-one years ago) link

The '3' is for how many points you currently get in that category, not for how many RBIs your team has. For team totals, see below.

― mark p (Mark P), Thursday, 3 April 2003 14:17 (twenty-one years ago) link

oh right. I think I'd like it better if it was cumulative on the total amounts.

― hstencil, Thursday, 3 April 2003 14:19 (twenty-one years ago) link

I'll root for Mark a priori.

― lawrence kansas (lawrence kansas), Thursday, 3 April 2003 14:26 (twenty-one years ago) link

scroll down on the rankings page dood.

i like marks' team. i'm behind those gals 100%

― dyson (dyson), Thursday, 3 April 2003 16:35 (twenty-one years ago) link

Alas, we're slow of foot and lack closing ability.

― mark p (Mark P), Thursday, 3 April 2003 16:38 (twenty-one years ago) link

Mike DeJean just became available!

― felicity (felicity), Thursday, 3 April 2003 16:42 (twenty-one years ago) link

I'd just like to thank Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, without whom Robb Nen would be closing for the Giants now instead of Worrell.

― Leee (Leee), Thursday, 3 April 2003 16:54 (twenty-one years ago) link

go Cubs

― felicity (felicity), Thursday, 3 April 2003 17:17 (twenty-one years ago) link

I've suddenly realized that I have three Cub players on my roster. I must know something.

― lawrence kansas (lawrence kansas), Thursday, 3 April 2003 17:19 (twenty-one years ago) link

I just don't know what it is.

― lawrence kansas (lawrence kansas), Thursday, 3 April 2003 17:20 (twenty-one years ago) link

my guys are on a slugging streak but my lack of A-rate pitchers is glaringly apparent.

― gygax! (gygax!), Thursday, 3 April 2003 18:54 (twenty-one years ago) link

I should have spelled MarKKKKKKK with more Ks!

― felicity (felicity), Thursday, 3 April 2003 18:57 (twenty-one years ago) link

Not to kill yr enthusiasm, felicity, but I would hardly call 104 pitches in 4 innings with 7 ks a great day... The boy has gotta learn not to try to strike everyone out!

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Thursday, 3 April 2003 19:08 (twenty-one years ago) link

Who did you get for Prior in your keeper league again? Trevor Hoffman or someone?

― felicity (felicity), Thursday, 3 April 2003 19:11 (twenty-one years ago) link

Even worse. Washburn. (at the time it was a good trade though, cuz I was gonna make the playoffs and Prior was done for the year. Washburn was hot, and I wanted to make a run for the $1000 prize. I totally regret it now, obviously. I still gots a mancrush on Marky Mark tho)

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Thursday, 3 April 2003 19:13 (twenty-one years ago) link

3) Mark Prior for Jarrod Washburn (I was in the middle of the playoff race (top prize in my league is $1000) and wanted one more arm . Thinking of what happened to Kerry Wood (and $1000), I dealt Prior. I missed the playoffs by a miniscule amount. Twas dumb)

-- Yanc3y (ystr1ckl3...), February 13th, 2003.

HAHAHAHAHA!

― felicity (felicity), Thursday, 3 April 2003 19:14 (twenty-one years ago) link

I want to see Mark's single tonight. He can hit.

― felicity (felicity), Thursday, 3 April 2003 19:14 (twenty-one years ago) link

NOTE: when addressing baseball-related posts to felicity avoid using words like "hot" to describe a player's performance.

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Thursday, 3 April 2003 19:15 (twenty-one years ago) link

How the hell did that get posted twice, but the second time with a "3)" beside it??? Weird.

(k. that one was on purpose)

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Thursday, 3 April 2003 19:16 (twenty-one years ago) link

Surely 6 IP? Pitches-strikes: Prior 105-70 -- you bitter man.

― felicity (felicity), Thursday, 3 April 2003 19:19 (twenty-one years ago) link

Prior only went 4? Can't get the win then.

Jose Valentin MVP watch: 3-4, 2hr, 3b, 4 rbi

― Mr. Diamond (diamond), Thursday, 3 April 2003 19:19 (twenty-one years ago) link

haha, Yanc3y, I cut and pasted that second one from February! You are a bot.

― felicity (felicity), Thursday, 3 April 2003 19:20 (twenty-one years ago) link

ATTENTION EVERYONE: PRIOR WENT SIX -- COUNT 'EM -- SIX TODAY, GOT THE W AND STRUCK OUT 7

sheesh, Yanc3y, the Baseball Almanac you're not.

― felicity (felicity), Thursday, 3 April 2003 19:22 (twenty-one years ago) link

According to CBS Sportsline's monkey box scores, his line was:

4.1 IP 104 Pitches 4 Hits 1 ER 2 BB 7 SO

But they are often wrong.

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Thursday, 3 April 2003 19:22 (twenty-one years ago) link

I am a bot!

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Thursday, 3 April 2003 19:23 (twenty-one years ago) link

Enjoy your Jarrod Washburn.

― felicity (felicity), Thursday, 3 April 2003 19:25 (twenty-one years ago) link

HUSH!

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Thursday, 3 April 2003 19:25 (twenty-one years ago) link

Forget everything I ever said positive about the White Sox. They blow.

Exhibit B why I hate closers and saves is a meaningless category: Billy Koch.

― Mr. Diamond (diamond), Thursday, 3 April 2003 20:18 (twenty-one years ago) link

D. Marte 0.1 0 2 2 1 0 0 27.00

I dodged a bullet!

― felicity (felicity), Thursday, 3 April 2003 20:27 (twenty-one years ago) link

Billy Kock, Mike DeJean, Jose Jiminez = why a "tanking saves" strategy may have been appropriate this year.

― Mr. Diamond (diamond), Thursday, 3 April 2003 20:29 (twenty-one years ago) link

As a fan of set-up/mop-up specialists, I prefer "blow and vulture."

― felicity (felicity), Thursday, 3 April 2003 20:33 (twenty-one years ago) link

sosa almost got 500... almost.

― gygax! (gygax!), Thursday, 3 April 2003 20:36 (twenty-one years ago) link

Hatteberg, you suck.

― felicity (felicity), Thursday, 3 April 2003 20:43 (twenty-one years ago) link

I'm going with a "tanking pitching stats" strat. Kevin Millar i luv u!

― Leee (Leee), Thursday, 3 April 2003 20:46 (twenty-one years ago) link

Except for holds. I will rock you with holds.

― Leee (Leee), Thursday, 3 April 2003 20:46 (twenty-one years ago) link
