Jose Altuve has been a pretty good late round steal for me as well.

[Jughead10]

Bryan LaHair. Suck it.

[D-Unit]

I only have 9 out of the 18 guys I drafted still on my team.

[Xiomera]

Colby Lewis. BOOM.

[Brodeur]

Can I claim Jeremy Affeldt's kid? He's only 4, but he's 4'6 and 60 pounds so I'm assuming he'll be a dominant pitcher some day.

Is that for real?? That young and THAT TALL???? HOLY FREAK.

[D-Unit]

Xio,
Are we starting fresh next year or are we declaring keepers?

[Xiomera]

Definitely not starting fresh. We established that before the draft when someone asked. I wouldn't count on starting fresh for two more seasons after this at the earliest. As long as teams continue to fluctuate up and down in the standings and there's no truly dominant or terrible teams, we'll keep carrying over.

[Giantsfan1080]

I built the start of a young dynasty so we better not start fresh.

I said we weren't and we're sticking with that. More likely, the only thing we'd ever do is perhaps reduce the number of keepers by 2-3 to help level the playing field, but that is not something that would happen without adequate advance notice. The league is in good shape right now.

I agree on all fronts. Good work sir.

Cool. I like that.

What the **** happened to Roy Halladay as I looked away?! Just sunk my ERA.

Dunno... old age???

Verlander can't buy me a win. It's ridiculous how good my pitchers are. Near the tops in ERA and WHIP, but at the bottom of the league in Wins.

[Giantsfan1080]

Anyone have a SS to trade?

Old age? Is that wishful thinking? Roy was stellar this season until the 5th inning of this game.

[Giantsfan1080]

Halladay's fastball is averaging 89 this year so something might be up.

[Xiomera]

And I suppose you guys are composing your lowball offers, right? lolz

[bearsfan_51]

He isn't even worth trading for at this point.

You're right. I should probably cut him and add his teammate Joe Blanton.

[bearsfan_51]

I'd pick him up but I don't want to lose my waiver spot.

Saving it for when I drop Travis Hafner? I know he's your fave.

[bearsfan_51]

Travis Hafner still plays baseball? Is Mo Vaughn still around too?

He homered from my bench tonight. And stop name-dropping. Now I probably won't even get Mo Vaughn off the waiver wire.

[bearsfan_51]

I'm glad I googled him.
