Guess my quick math wasn't correct. Yesterday he scored 59 and I only scored 35, so that was enough for him. (Sure wish they'd show daily totals live) #2, a little less pressure. A-Rod vs A-Ram -- I guess we'll see!

A-Rod vs A-Ram -- I guess we'll see! I've had A. Ramirez as my 3rd baseman for the past four weeks or so (and had him locked in at a good salary) but I had to agree with Cocky's assessment that this was the last chance to get ARod at a relatively low salary, so I switched to him.

Who knows, it could be even lower next week!  Besides, despite A-Rod performing magic for me in last year's draft game, I don't want to take the chance of jinxing him now! (Of course, by my not taking him, he'll do you very well.  ) In any event, if I'm going to ape his PS's, I need to take my chances on different hitting picks...

Regardless of PS, I don't think going 1-for-10 over 3 batters, plus 3 DNPs, are what makes a Top 2 competitor.

I'm having my worst week yet -- 57 points (-1 for PS) in 3 days -- but still am #8 Overall. COCKcroft only dropped to 2nd, so that means I made some bad choices in hitters. I thought I made some good picks.  #1 held onto the Rays PS for +52 pts. At least so far A-Ram is out hitting A-Rod.

84 points so far with the Braves' staff this week. Oh, blow it out your porthole, counsellor.  Thats more points than my entire team has scored. I tried typing in a VERY POINTED message about Cockcroft in our team's message box... the system wouldn't let me (I guess it has a pretty severe censor system).

Ugh. Moved from #8 up to #7, one point behind #6 and 50 pts outta 1st... can't believe I'm hanging on -- I guess everyone listened to him. And I see he finally visited my ESPN profile page!

well it was about time!
and I'm saying all week, you can't complain about the D-Backs. if you had not picked them you would be a fool for missing the chance of the greatest PS week of the year. no one can predict baseball, and whoever's climbing this week is a LUCKY BASTARD. I'm the lucky bastard! I'm the lucky bastard! Braves PS 106 Diamondbacks PS 17

Maybe Kly should write for ESPN then.  BTW, Kly... not sure if your name actually means anything, but,... for all of May 2008, "klydon1" is the #3 search keyphrase bringing users here, behind only "gangsterbb" and "gangster bb", and ahead of "stacy farber" and "godfather 4" -- what's with that??? 80 searches on your name this month?? lol

I'm not too thrilled with Cocky's pick this week, but didn't really see anything much better...

I agree.... I did NOT go with his ps pick for next week.
EDIT: Looks like I'm not the only one who picked the Red Sox. MAYBE this'll be a big week.
