That's cold blooded LDV! Unpredictable, how so?

You know what my secret to knowing about the doubleheader?... I had the freaking Royals yesterday, and much to my misfortune, I followed the game up until it was cancelled. It's weird, for three days in a row, I've had Runelvys Hernandez. I picked him on Wednesday for the Thursday game only to find out on yesterday that he was replaced by someone else. Then I picked him for this doubleheader game.

Yes, I LOVE this game, my husband HATES my love for the game. But we go thru this every season anyhow. Thank God he is a patient man.

I mean, what warm hearted American WOULDN'T want to watch a baseball game over COPS or America's Most Wanted or Badass Car Chases Uncut???

Douche, darling......Unpredictable is GOOD. I dont have a cold drop of blood in my heart....unless you pass me up of course!

Boy, do I take that back! Douche, man, that first game sure isn't going your way: Baltimore is up 15-3 and still threatening in the top of the 8th

Don't fuck with the Birds!!! Yeah, right. Who am I kidding.

Yeah, Beth

Anyway - Freakin' Pedro. 5-0 Minnesota in the 4th Buff's jinxing my PS again! :rolleyes: :p

Like I said, don't fuck with the Birds. :p Come on, give me my due. When was the last time you heard the words, "the Orioles win a double header".

Yeah, I'm drunk. Sue me!!!

Unofficial results...

PL 41 1664
UU 37 1598
LD 36 1583
JG 18 1559 <-- offense? hello?!!
HH 41 1508
DB 00 1477 <-- wow, talk about cancel each other out!
SC 36 1409
OA 43 1338
BD 28 1232

When you're goin' good, all the breaks seem to fall your way. I was kicking myself all day yesterday for missing the doubleheader...would have absolutely taken the KC staff. Would have had more offense, of course, but no way was I gonna offset that -24.

This just isn't my week. I haven't broken 100 points yet. I have yet to break 30 for any particular day. Two negative point pitching days on top of a zero point pitching day (not to mention a 5 point pitching day)!

Well, I guess all I can do is laugh!

Today's PS's...

PL 1664 Mets <-- 23 pts
UU 1596 Dodgers (vs. DB) 8 pts
LD 1583 Seattle <-- stop it! :p
JG 1559 Seattle
HH 1508 Yanks 25 pts
DB 1480 Expos (vs. UU) 8 pts
SC 1409 Yanks 25 pts
OA 1338 Pitts
BD 1232 Cards 16 pts


P.S. Of course I'm not laughing at you, PL, it's just funny someone would pick the Mutts - but over the Padres, and with Leiter, it's probably a good bet

This morning when I saw the picks, I thought your Expos pick was tres risque. You can ask yourself the above question later - towards the end fo the day :p

Ok kids, the word of the day is "PIAZZA". Say it with me.....

God, I wish I had a bat right now. I'd certainly hit something or someONE.........

Man, you know it's getting bad when I'm HAPPY to get 8 points for pitching! Whoo hoo!

Maybe I'll break 30 points today!

PL, I hate you. 23 pts for the Mutts?? I was too scared to take the Yanks after last week's same match-up... man, I think I'm gonna regret (yet again) my choice. This love-hate is leaning closer to the hate lately!

And WTF is up with my "offense"? Sorryano - c'mon, man! Snap out of it! Ugh.

DS - Congrats, bro!

Aramis Ramirez is a piece of SHIT!!

its hapnin again.........

Sat night results... now official... with Sunday PS's

PL 53 1717 D-Rays <-- talk about Mr Unpredictable!
UU 31 1627 Dodgers
LD 33 1616 Seattle
JG 27 1586 Giants
HH 51 1559 Yanks
DB 24 1504 Toronto
SC 45 1454 Yanks
OA 53 1388 Cubs
BD 44 1276 Giants

BD - I hope great minds are thinking alike today

D-Rays PS gave Detroit 1 run in the last two games. So this is the "Anti-Detroit" pick. So here I am about -20 in the 5th inning.

All I have to say is, "It's about damn time!"

I had a third of my output this week all from today! Hopefully, it's a sign of things to come this upcoming week.

Coming up and waiting to rejoin the Oreo...

Okay, preliminary results. All games final except tonight's Boston/Minnesota game.

Now, I'm not sure if the St Louis/Cubs points will stick since it wasn't a completed game.

PL 1717 D-Rays (-12 PS) 11 (-8 if no Cubs game)
UU 1627 Dodgers (25) 51 (-11?)
LD 1616 Seattle (24) 61 (-8?) +1 in night game
JG 1586 Giants (-1) 26 (-10?) +2 in night game
HH 1559 Yanks (3) 26
DB 1504 Toronto (27) 61 (-18?)
SC 1454 Yanks (3) 21 +3 in night game
OA 1388 Cubs (-29 if sticks) -6
BD 1276 Giants (-1) 27 (-9?)

Ugh. Guess we weren't so brilliant after all, BDD. And neither was PL OA - I hope the Cubs/St Louis points count for today, but I'm sure you're hoping they won't!

Hey, to think... tomorrow's Monday! :rolleyes:

Now I see why I continue to falter in my PS - I have the same as you thus I must your carry your bad luck with me. Can you do me a favor and let me know who your PS is for tomorrow so I can be sure to pick ANYBODY else

It figures (with my luck this week) that when I finally have a decent day, I would be hurt the most by the Cubs/Cards cancellation! Some week huh?!

In any case, that's enough whine with my cheese.

There's always next week.

I've picked my boy Matt Clement every time he's piched so far- And hes never really let me down (OK he hasnt exactly had a cy young year but he usually gets me some points)But come on Matty-
-29 points!- in only 4 innings! hopefully that doesn't stand- it can't can it? the game didn't even count. Anyway, even though ill feel guilty doin it, im gonna have to stop pickin him.

Hey Matty, what have I ever done to make you treat me so disrespectively?

I thought i was gonna have a shot to win the week after today- buuuut NO

I could be wrong, but upon reading the rules, i interpret them to mean that the stats from the Cubs-cards game count.

:rolleyes: beautiful :rolleyes:

Final, preliminary results, assuming Cubs/Cards game counts:

PL 1728 D-Rays (-12 PS) 11 total today
LD 1683 Seattle (24) 67
UU 1678 Dodgers (25) 51
JG 1618 Giants (-1) 32
HH 1585 Yanks (3) 26
DB 1565 Toronto (27) 61
SC 1485 Yanks (3) 31
OA 1382 Cubs (-29) -6
BD 1303 Giants (-1) 27

Apparently the stats from the Cubs-Cards game do not count.

Here are the final week six and total season-to-date results:

PL 252 (week 6) 1720 (season to date) Giants (PS)
LDV 238 1675 Cubs (vs MLW)
UU 256 1666 Dodgers (vs ATL)
JG 198 1608 Cubs
HH 214 1585 Yankees (off-day)
DB 164 1547 Cubs
SC 194 1485 Yanks
OA 258 1411 Twins (vs MN)
BDD 196 1294 Cubs

Well, it looks like the Teams-Formerly-Known-As-The-Oreo as well as BDD shared the same brain today.

Just curious (and I don't think this question should reveal anyone's strategy) but which keeper player do you have that has the best value so far (largest market value gap over locked value)?

Mine would be Corey Patterson. I have him locked in at 2.9 while his current MV is 4.4.

Well thanks for getting my day off to a sh!tty start - I can pretty much count on another minus (-) day from my pitching staff now. Damn you JGeoff you were supposed to tell me who you picked so I could pick anyone else

I will lay it out for you now - the Cubs will be about + 21 in the 7th inning and finish -2 by the end of the game.

What horseshit that is. So, whenever that game is made up -- and it would have to be before the All-Star break to count for "Season 1" on this game -- the points will be re-credited to May 11th? Hmm, that's dumb! A lot of people lost a lot of offensive points... sigh

Ahh well... I'm screwed today... I took Buff's PS, and BDD took mine! And, PL's gonna look like a genius picking the Giants, which I picked as a "sure-thing" yesterday for -1

DS - My most-improved "free" player is SS Alex Gonzalez 4.1 (2.8). My shitty team's market value is 55.5 right now (paying 49.6). I'm afraid to pick Corey Patterson cuz I'd be a copy-cat, but, I almost did cuz I knew he'd go into a slump right afterwards, screwing everyone else with me!
