'Greg Aquino' Theme League**

[KEVINEHLE]

I'm not sold that HAL wouldn't throw in a $7M SP/RP like Harden over a .50M pure reliever during a game....especially in a long relief situation. I'm torn whether or not I should drop Harden in the waivers. I think I could get long innings out of him on his starts to avoid using the bullpen scrubs, but not sure it's worth the risk when he doesn't start.

Anyone want to trade for him?

Would love to have Harden but not sure if I can fit him in.

Hate to barge in here, but the 5 pitchers that are set in your Rotation page will not be used in releif. Of course ANY pitcher, starter, in roatation, ANY can be used at HAL's whim once it comes to extra innings games. But If you go with a 5 man rotation, and they are all placed in your roation page, Harden shouldn't ever relieve.

I've notified Bunbury via league e-mail that he will have to release Jason Bay.

I figure even with 5-6 other relievers Aquino should see at least 25-30 IP.

SP/RP 1.00m and below are allowed to be used in Relief roles.

Thanks Geekor. I've decided to let Harden go anyway because I had to free up some cash to get some offense. He is free to pick up for anyone. :D

Be sure to double check to ensure you have no Pure RP over 1m ... otherwise good luck to all - season begins tonight! :)

Nice Job Tax. With you forgetting to do your settings, you won 2 out of 3. I think you found your secret!! Don't coach!! I know it's hard.....but you need to go ahead and admit that HAL is a superior coach over the Tennessee Tax Accountant!! :shock:
