I think that's what happened when you don't have any players left haha.


I felt like letting him hit again, he struck out 2. And Alfonso Soriano threw himself out from left field, getting hurt on the head first dive. I've got an 8 man rotation with 2 great set-up men, 1 great closer, 1 great reliever I can remember, 1 great and 1 good swing men, and Andy Pettite's my situational lefty. Believe me, I always have some pitchers left.

And I guess that adds to the topic, I have a VERY stacked team.

...you skip the draft (even with the first overall pick!) because you're roster is full of star prospects already making the league minimum. :mrgreen:

When James Loney isn't your leadoff batter, and when a guy with an 11 in contact (C,D, F, C, D, my edited Geovany Soto) is batting last.

Haha I know mate, I was just joking. I wouldn't have an 8-man rotation if I were you, there ERAs won't count and you can't get any awards!

When your 105 mph Liriano with 7 H-SLD, 7 KNCB, 7SCB, and 7 CHG was sent down to double A, becuase he didn't strikeout enough batters.
