If you missed April, come back in May!ESPN Diamond Daily http://games.espn.go.com/diamond/frontpage Gangster BB Corleone Object: Each day you select one batter and try to accumulate the highest totals in Home Runs (HR), Runs Batted In (RBI), and Average (AVG). You accumulate stats based on how your selected player performs on the day you select him. Choose your picks wisely! Once a player has been used he expires and cannot be used again for the rest of the monthly segment. There are six monthly segments, April thru September. Locktime: Noon ET daily, beginning Sun, Apr 2 -- but you can assign players as far in advance as you want. More: How to Play . Note: Sunday Night Baseball (SNB) count for double stats! Maximum # games played is -3 from monthly total, so you can miss 3 days/month. 2005 Winners: PL (May), JL (June), JG (July), JL (Aug), JG (Sep) (Not enough players in April)

Only 4 People??  :rolleyes: THIS STARTS TOMORROW, so make your pick TODAY or before Noon tomorrow for TOMORROW!Tomorrow's pitchers aren't listed yet. :rolleyes: So you can make a pick and fine-tune before noon of gameday. NOTE: Tomorrow is Sunday. All Sunday Night Baseball (players designated "SNB") games count DOUBLE! 2-3, 1HR = 3-6, 2HR (this is how Plaw won a month last year, with one ridiculous SNB line. :rolleyes: :p ). This also means that going 0-3 = 0-6. Each month is a new segment, and you are allowed to miss 3 games/month w/o effecting your score, in case a player doesn't play, or you forget to play. You can, if you want, set up the whole month - or whole season for that matter. However, I suggest doing 3 days at a time so you can see opposing pitchers. Remember: You can only use each player once/month! And each month has a different pool of players to choose from. You are looking for players to do the best in these 3 categories only: AVG, HR, RBI -- nothing else counts. This game doesn't take a lot of time, so get your asses in here!

We had four, sometimes five...you, JG, JL, me (when I remembered to play), and SP (who remembered even less often than I did).

Looks like JL missed opening night, too, but it doesn't matter much... you get 3 free misses/month...

Hey Jasani - Maybe you could enlighten me on Catalanotto -- did I pick a no-show for today? He didn't play yesterday...

I think he's strictly a platooner with Reed Johnson. At least that's what they did last year.

How the hell do you remember that detail from last year?? Well, hopefully he'll play today since he's a good matchup w/ the pitcher... but w/ my luck...

Yup, aside from Vernon Wells our Outfield is a bit shaky. Alex Rios has loads of potential at Right but he has yet to realize it. Here's hoping that this will be the year that he breaks out and goes on a tear. A lot of people think that Eric Hinske should get equal time at Right but I'm not one of them. Hinske, a former R.O.Y., has not turned out as Blue Jay fans expected he would. I say we trade him for whoever we can get. As I mentioned, V.W. is a rock at Centre and should win his third gold glove in a row. Really we only need Wells cuz I'm pretty sure that he could cover the whole field-turf at The SkyDome. At Left Reed Johnson started yesterday and will platoon with Frank Catalanotto for most of the year most probably. Catalanotto is a much better hitter than Johnson (although Reed has moments of brilliance at the plate) but his defense is probably not as solid as Johnson's. My opinion, we should trade Hinske and Johnson (I like both players but if we can get some quality arms for them they have to go) and Catalonotto and Rios should play every day at Left and Right Field. Frank Catalonotto has owned Brad Radke (.429, HR, 5 RBI) and will most likely get the start tonight. If "The Cat" is fresh he's usually good for a base hit at the least.
