MLB (Baseball) 2009 (including fantasy leagues)

Anyone know anyone for the keeper league and/or the normal league? Need 1 more for each.

I’ll take the keeper league spot.

PM me your e-mail address

Need 1 more for each league. 1 dropped out from the keeper league. Also, spidey’s been invited for a very long time but still hasn’t taken the invites, so I might need 2 more for each. Doesn’t have to be SRKers at this point I think. If anyone has a friend that wants to join or anything…

Warp & Spidey still haven’t joined. Also still need 1 more manager.

i’ll join the keeper league too eppie. let me know if you need my email again but i sent it in a pm awhile ago.

PHILLIES NUMBER 1.

WORLD FUCKING CHAMPS.

Fuck you Clint and DS.

FUCK ALL THE OTHER TEAMS.

PS - Fuck the METS.

YES! Griffey’s coming home. Happy day. No more than 90 losses this time, I’m calling it!

So when are we gonna do drafts and stuff for fantasy?

Spidey & Warp still haven’t joined + need 1 more still assuming they join.

Edit: Warp has joined the keeper league I just noticed, but Spidey still hasn’t joined both. Morphiend I will send you your keeper invite right now.

If Spidey doesn’t join by Tuesday, I will be opening up the spot.

Manny rejects the Dodger’s offer AGAIN. 2-years, $45 million, $25 million this year, player option for '10 at $20 million.

Again, what in the fuck are Manny and Boras waiting on?

Manny going to have fun sitting at home.

manny needs a lesson on economics

Well, this is the first offer that Boras actually passed on to Manny to let him check out, so I’m not calling Boras an idiot (for this one atleast). I just don’t care if we get Manny anymore. In fact, I kinda don’t want him anymore. He doesn’t play well if he’s not happy & doesn’t seem like the Dodgers can make him an offer that’ll make him happy.

Sigh today I just kept Manny on as a keeper in one of my keeper leagues. If he continues being a baby this is gonna suck

Ok, so the details of the contract were wrong. This is actually how it goes, it’s a 2-year deal:

$10 million for '09 and '10 (player option)
$10 million deferred for '11 and '12, $5 million deferred for '13; no interest

So maybe I can understand why they rejected this deal, but that just gives more reason why he should have taken the original 2-year $45 million deal that was guaranteed.

Has anyone taken the last spots in the leagues yet?

Keeper league is now full!

As for the 12 team regular H2H league, 3 spots left. Spidey & Warp still haven’t joined, so I will be giving those spots away. If it comes down to it, I’m just going to advertise on ESPN message boards for 3 extras.

Just drafted for another league this morning… don’t know how I feel about my team. Another guy took every single guy I wanted right before my picks. It sucked.

Your starting pitching is pretty bad. Trade some offence for a top pitcher or at least a solid one. Your offence is pretty solid and you pretty much have SB on lock. Just hope Rollins can bounce back from last year and Rios can finally play up to his potential.

I offered Xavier Nady for BJ Ryan and I got countered offer with Ryan Theriot and BJ Ryan for Ted Lily and Kelly Johnson. I feel like I’m getting ripped off here and I want some opinions on this trade.

Depends on your roster. Do you need SB’s and saves more than HR’s and W’s?

Theriot’s a pretty good guy for SS as well, which is harder to fill than 2B. More steals, higher average, and at least the same amount of runs than Kelly Johnson will have, although he has no power and Kelly Johnson will hit like 15-20 homers. Which is great for a middle infielder.

I think Lily will outpitch Zambrano this year though.

But it’s hard to gauge trades when they’re not straight up position for position, context is required.


Dammit, I probably can’t make the keeper draft for eppie’s league - I’ll have to jump in later rounds if we don’t push it back from 8:00 EST. Anyway that’s possible?
