My pitching is falling apart... as opposed to my bitching, which is still entirely entact!

If you're not in first place in the actual game, at least you lead the league in whines.

This is strictly an off-the-top-of-my-head estimate, but what happens if we get the top 5 on equal footing;

Each with 591 offensive games and 78 starts.....

Let's give JL 8 more points for the one start he's short

Let's give JG 67 more points for the 19 offensive games he's short, and 11 points for the one start he's short.

Let's give TM 219 more points for the 59 offensive games he's short.

Let's give PL 75 more points for the 21 offensive games he's short, and 76 more points for the 8 starts he's short.

And let's give DB 162 more points for the 40 offensive games he's short, and 53 more points for the 11 starts he's short.

PL   591  2109     78   737    151   272     3118
It all comes down to the starting pitching.

The points I added on were based on the average FPPG for everyone's starts up to know.

But obviously, DB is doing better and will probably average better than the 5 SP PPG or so that I projected for him.

On the other hand, without Pujols, DB's offensive output will probably be worse.

JG's offensive production should be better with A. Rod, but maybe worse without Sheffield.

Without A. Rod, though, JL's offensive PPG average that I based his projection on may be lower the rest of the way.

Etc.....

Get the whine alert ready.
Why the hell is Frankie Rodriguez charged with a blown save, when he came in with 1 out and men on base in the 8th inning, and the run the that scored, scored on an out and was charged to someone else?

I'd agree.

Looks to me like Donnelly should've been charged wit the BS since the tying run was charged to him.

Either there's some obscure thing in the scoring rules - something to do with the fact that F. Rod threw the WP that moved the runners up and the run was unearned or something - or it's a mistake.

Why don't you post on the game's message board and ask if anyone knows?

(Edit: I asked on the ESPN Board)

I read the replies. Anyway you look at it, Donnelly came into a save situation, and technically gave up the run that tied the game. Inherited base runners are the responsibility of the pitcher that put them there. I still see no reason how FR can be considered the guy that blew the save.

That's ok. The last thing I should be doing is offering you any SP. But it's 2AM. I'm bored. ....And I probably had too many beers. The best thing about the trade would be that one way or another, it would probably piss off PL.

In that case -- after "a few of my own" -- let's do it!! (J/K tho, cuz I'm one of those that Cardi hates - people who take it seriously... )

But, FWIW - I may want an SP that's NOT on the Marlins if A-Rod is involved... even given the slump he's been in since I got him. :p :rolleyes:

P.S. Hmm, didn't I already have Blalock?? :p

I should be asking you for something else in return. I think Blalock has given me more points, than A-Rod has given you. :p

....I think the only reason I want him back is to justify my mistake of picking him first. I can't stand him or the Yankees. :rolleyes:

Don't make any trades until you see whether or not I may be willing to make a better offer.

I've seen your trade offers. They usually start out with you saying: "I don't know if I'd do it", as you offer your role players for the other team's stars. :p

And yours are any better?

I forgot...who was it you wanted to steal from me for Sidney Ponson, who you wound up dropping anyway?

Sanchez, was it? :rolleyes:

And don't blame me for the Capuano-Biggio deal.

I asked the guy who he'd want for Capuano...Biggio even up was his idea, not mine.

Ask him if you don't believe me.

I also made some very fair offers to JG for Schmidt - ask him if you don't believe me.

I believe I offered him Adam Dunn, Uggla, and a starter - Haren, I think. That's not a fair deal?

Given Schmidt's history of late-season breakdowns, I still think he should have taken that one.

I never try to take advantage of anyone in a trade. I always offer deals that I think can help both teams.

And besides, it never hurts to ask, does it?

I remember you asking about A-Rod when the season started, and you wanting me to throw Oswalt into the deal too.


I saw your offer for Schmidt, and you're right. He should have taken it. I wouldn't have made that deal if I were you. ....I thought you offered Halladay and a Dunn.

All I remember is making an offer for A. Rod.

I may have asked for Oswalt also, but who did I offer in return?

I remember Chavez.....who else?

I believe it was Shelton and Chavez, for Oswalt and A-Rod.
....But you weren't sure you'd do it.

Damn. I was upset about my team's score tonight until I saw JG did just as bad.

I guess I'd do it.

That was a fair proposal at the time, when it looked like Shelton was gonna be this year's Babe Ruth.

But man, he's really gone into the tank since those first 12 games or so, hasn't he?

(Edit: Let's see.....)
Code:

Last 53 Games    53  179  40   .223    3    13
