Can't complain too much with Colon and Benson (do I get his wife too?), Ponson sucks, but oh well.

Looks good for me though, I have Boston's Jesus on my team. :-)

Schmidt, Mulder, Lidge, Izzy, Carpenter......pitching is solid......as long as the STL offensive machine keeps rolling hitting will do well.......basically have every Card except Pujols and Rolen (the 2 I wanted most ).......looks like some good teams boys.......good luck!

silly question. What are the most important stats for a pitcher? I can't seem to find an explanation on Yahoo's site.

wins
loses
innings pitched
earned run average
strikeouts
walks

saves
holds

Thank you, kind sir

I'm ECSTATIC with my team!! Pitching especially!!(well, starting pitchers at least)

I got Mark Prior, Kerry Wood, Carlos Zambrano, and picked up Glendon Rusch!!! Only need Maddux, and I have the Cubs entire starting rotation!!! BigE, need anyone for Maddux?!?

sorry to be a dick but Mark Prior, Kerry Wood........excited?.....both are sidelined again at the beginning of the season.........I would be wary about those two as my aces......but that is just MHO.............Go Cards Go!!!!!!!

I need a closer. Anyone willing to trade? I am willing to deal anyone on my team for the right guy.

MB...Take a look at Everyday Eddie...I can't decide what to do with him...coming off injury, could be a good pickup if he stays healthy. Let me know what kind of SP you have to give, not sure if I trust Benson and Ponson for a full season.

You have a deal offered to you Jerseydevil.

Thanks for the trade, MB, I feel a bit better, now.
started feeling a little AL-centric, so an NL pitcher should help.

DAMMIT!! I have Young on the bench! 3 HR today...who would have thought?? CRAP!

Haters!

Figures it was you. The T.O. lover crawls down to T.O.'s level and tries to sneak something like that by us. I used to try that in my work's hockey pool all the time.

The best part is that I offered him Mike Lowell for Jeter at the beginning of the season since Lowell has had better recent career numbers than Jeter. He didn't want to do it and wanted A-Rod instead. Yeah, ARod's on the same level as Craig freakin' Counsell who, I might add, is still worse value than Lowell despite his early season slump.

I put the deal out there. MattMualer accepted the deal. The league vetoed it because they are HATERS!

I'm getting the worst of the trade. Jim Thome is struggling and isn't about to come back anytime soon. I'm taking a chance on this trade.

HATERS!

Funny thing is I've looked at my roster like three times and made my first adjustment today. And I'm still making all of you my bitches.

You guys suck.

What's the name of your team, Chris?

Nick Johnson is a straight up deal for Jeter. Look at the numbers.

Haters!

All you have to do is look at the top, Philly.. Which is coincidentally how both Smith and Tonka's girls like to ride, but I digress.

Of course, this is in Primary's league. Maybe I should have been clearer on that? Just figuring this is the *OFFICIAL* Baseball thread and all.

Finley and Benson are on the block...

Sorry to everybody for accepting that trade. Let that be a lesson, never get drunk and start fucking around with your fantasy basesall team. I could have sworn I hit "make counter offer" and I couldn't figure out why I wasn't picking players on the next screen. Doh!

For the record, what I wanted to counter with was Delgado and BJ Ryan for Thome and Jeter.

Anyone else think that Lowell for Jeter is a good trade?

I offered Sean Casey and Rollins for Jeter.

Yeah, and it looks good. Gimme some time, I'd have to drop somebody.

It was at the time, but probably not now. Then again, I seriously doubt Lowell will continue this early season drought. He's just too good of a hitter.

What made the deal perfect at the time was that Jeter and Lowell have put up very similar numbers over the years (w/ a slight edge in favor of Lowell) and you already have Tejada at SS while I have A-Rod at 3B.

I think the trade is acceptable.
