I'll win my league if I can get my BA up over .270. I was projected at .286 to lead the league but it's just not happening for some reason.If I can get my average up close to .280 and I don't bomb in any of the other categories then the victory is mine!

Once, I had a day I went down 15 points becuase every single pitcher had a blow out against them (CC, Peavy, ect.) and my ERA went from 3.80 to 4.20 (jesus that was awful). No one but 2 players got any hits, no sb, no homers, ect. It was the worst day I've ever had in Fantasy, and I fell out of first place. I'm on the brink of first now, but I believe I have more staying power as a lot of my injured guys (fills my whole damn bench haha) are coming back soon, including Alex Gordon, Grady Sizemore, Manny Ramirez (not injured, but still), Jason Bartlett, Scot Kazmir, Brandon Webb, ect. Actually Sizemore depends soley on his MRI today. God I hope it's not bad. I'm not screwed without him, but if he's healthy, I'd really like my chances to win. Without him, I use that spot to pick what ever outfielders are hot.

Anybody own McCutchen or Beckham? I snagged McCutchen but couldn't get Beckham. Ther's not many SS options this year.

Beckham is not doing good so far. Last I checked, he was batting a buck-50 or something...

Oh I wouldn't start him yet anyway. I would stash him and if he performs he would be trade bait.

Did anyone see Milton Bradley's mistake today?

That's happened alot of times but do they rule that a double or homerun?

And red sox are winning in Philly after Ramirez let up a tying homerun to Howard

The yankes were down 1 run with Jeter on second and tex, who had a 3-0 count and then intentionally walked, was on first with A-Rod up. There was a 3-1 count on A-Rod, but he popped a ball into the shallow outfield. I was very angry after the previous series and just turned it off. Well what I didn't see is that he dropped the ball and Mark Texiera, what a ball player, ran all the way as hard as he could and never assumed the out.

Tex doesn't belong on the Yankees. He hustles too much.

And the rest don't? When did they get that kind of reputation too?

They ruled that catch-n-throw a sac fly.

The catch led to the sac fly, the throw was ruled an error, allowing the runner on first (Harris) to move to third.

If the runner on third (Punto) had been on second instead, he would've scored anyway because he would also have been awarded two bases on the error. Of course, in that case the batter (Mauer) would've just gotten an F9 (with no RBI) instead of a sac fly. This is what happened when Trot Nixon forgot the number of outs in 2003 playing right field for Boston.

Yeah Castillo has B Err Res in 2008 too, I had to drop that because of that Career Muff.

Give him a break guys. Everyone makes an error now and then. Even 3 time gold glovers.

I hate how K-Rod got the loss anyways.
i know, SOMEBODY had to take the loss, but come on...

LOL at bradley, by the way. he looked high when he threw the ball.


My Giants are heatin' up, and Matt Cain is going to set a career record in wins before the All-Star Break. Never thought I'd hear that last part.
Lincecum and Cain and pray for rain indeed.
