Stoopid way to have to figure out the weekly leaders in the second half, though. The guy in first this week has a 64 point lead now, but I guess I have a shot at second - I'm in 4th place now, only 7 points out.

How about a screen shot for posterity, JG? (Pleeeeeeeeeze  )

Chalk up another day for me forgetting to change my team, and on a day when Santana is pitching no less. :rolleyes: As soon as I have a little bit of a lead, I fall right back to the rest of the pack. And to top it all off, I have to root, root, root for Santana..... because of the Yahoo Game. Can I get a miracle game from Mateo today (whoever he is)?

If the Minny PS only gets a mid-twenties and Mateo and the Cubbies can hold on for an 8 or 10 maybe, I could possibly hold on to first place.
If Santana comes up with a monster though, at least I'll get some Yahoo benefit from it.

He'll probably throw a no-hitter for your Yahoo team -- to go with Hallady's great start. Looks like you'll be in 2nd after tonight, once Lackey loses. :rolleyes:

Originally posted by plawrence: And why the Question Mark (?) up there for TM's pick of Franco as DH? (Only asking 'cuz he's my DH also) I figured there'd be much better options than someone who might not even get an at-bat during either game. Especially if you already have Orr in there (as do I). But, allow me to question Cliff Floyd while I'm at it. :p
