Pierzynski is a bum - I should know, I drafted him. You looking for him to reverse his 3-for-26 this past week? I hope so, too.

GREAT BALLS OF DOODY!!!

What happened to Arizona's pitching tonight?

if you could just pick the D-Backs pitching staff every week and forget about it, it'd be no fun!

Thanks to the BoSox pitching staff yesterday, I rose to #7 Overall! ...and thanks to the BoSox pitching staff today, I'm probably gonna drop way down.

Oh... stop your whining already!

And Geoff takes back 7th place!

Holy crap... I'm checking HIS results before I check MINE.

He drops to 8th (not too bad considering the Sox staff - i.e. Papelbon - blew a lead and win).

Our don is in THIRD PLACE!!!

Furcal going down cost me 2nd

Way to go, Geoff!

It's getting more nerve-wracking setting up lineups now...

I coulda been a contenda tonight...

You coulda had class.... you coulda been somebody.

Fret not my short pants legged don... with three rainouts (from yesterday) I think EVERYONE will have relatively low scores (this past week was low), so you should still be in the running.

I think I got 5 pts Sunday night, my second 5-point night of the week. Meh.

The guy you were tied with (in 3rd place) got only 7 points. The guy in 5th place got 16 points, so you may have fell some places in the standings BUT not by many points.

I'm only worried about Cockcroft ("The Golden Sombreros", one of ESPN's "experts")... he had the ChiSox and they had a -9 tonight ) ...maybe I'll be okay, at least within catch-up range.

I think the taste of closing in on #1 is causing me to over-think things now! But damn, 8 more weeks of this???!!! There's no way..... lol

After tonight's scores are added in, you'll be only 5 points behind the Sombrero guy.

Since I probably won't see this again... 6 days into the 6-week point... for nostalgic sake... (ESPN's Cockcroft is #5)



(That's Overall... at that point I was tied for #1 in the 2068-member "Fantasy Editorial Group", with Cockcroft being 6 points back as #3)

I basically copied his lineup last week! he updated the frontpage of the Baseball Challenge late night sunday and I was able to squeeze that great White Sox PS pick (in spite of the minus pts on sunday and an awful -22 wednesday) but Renteria ( 0-18 slump) scored 1/6 of Furcal pts in 6 times as many games! yesterday I had dinner with my mom and never fixed my l/u...

anyway, nobady cares about me. I am also cheking JG's team page before I check mine!

JG, I went through this playing the golf game a few years ago. Try not drive yourself crazy. I was at the point where I was looking up players' 10 year history on a particular course, etc, and spending 2 hours picking my lineup every week.

Yeah, JL, and after all that, I get injuries and rain outs!

Geoff regained third place!! Way to go, bubby.

There are only 4,082 people between Geoff and me. Keep up the good work, Geoff.

The juggernaut continues. Geoff is in 2nd place.

I think someone is gonna start demanding a steroid test.

Well done, Geoff. that's pretty amazing. The Cleveland staff is helping out this week in a big way. Keep charging ahead.

That Golden Sombrero guy doesn't look like he has the stamina or intestinal fortitude to stay with you til July.

JG is in second, and the Sombrero Guy is in first. he must be such a geek that he doesn't want to reveal his team in time for me to steal some info anymore. the frontpage says Week 7 Preview but it came out thursday!

I forgot to add that I hope the ball will start to fly in Cincy now!

Thanks for rooting for me.


Cockcroft's BBC Preview came out last Sunday. I didn't even know he put his lineup out there until after I set mine. I was nervous about CLE but settled on them, then I saw his preview and saw he took them, too, so figured I wouldn't lose (or gain) too much on him....

it's just business, you know

anyway that CLE PS pick was a gem and it's no coincidence you both #1 and 2 took it. every contender out there is going with the tribe and even if they get roughed up you'll all be in good company.
