Thanks for loading up on the lefty-killers right before our series Sandy! :wink:

To show you just how badly my team performed in the first half of this season, we are 40-20 in our last 60 games and still 11 games under .500 and 11 games behind the division leading Silverhawks.

What great moves did I make? Traded away Nathan, Wang, Sanchez, Freel & Napoli and picked up Francis, Putz, Wuertz, Baldelli and Kendall.
That's it. These 2 separate were all that I did. Don't know about the rest of you, but I just can't see how the deals could account for the better results. :?

Unfortunately I think it's mostly dice rolls KD. Even in the new config I think you've got a 70-75 win team in that div. I'll do new sims when we start season 2....

Tip of the hat to my fellow Central Managers, what a dog fight, gonna go right down to the last night. :shock: None of us are out of it for the WC either.

well, I knew my team sucked for this year, I thought I could still steer away from a 100 loss season but nope... no dice, between one run losses, some crapy rolls at the most unfortunate times and a team that really stinks here it is: 100 losses for Yours trully, first time since my very first team, about 70 teams ago.

Well... now for the real boneheaded movements I should go ahead and swap my first pick in the upcoming draft for some of the junk from the powerhouse teams... that should keep the balance from tilting :wink:

Good luck to all playoff bound... and if anyone is interested in playing in beautiful Dolpding Stadium, let me know, thinking about a move to a snowy state.

Come on guys give me a break here- qksilver already snaked Thome out of me promising I would still win 100 games; the least you guys could do is to throw me the WC. :roll:

[qksilver69]

Yeah, you both need to quit b*tchin'! :lol:

Chuck, Kotchman is doing even better than what I said he would (I think I said .300/.380/.520 as a possible line & he's currently .330/.408/.555) and Drew is having some struggles with the bat, but he's basically a rook & was a top 4 pick, Kotchman + Drew for the next number one pick is sweet. So cry me a river baby! :P

DT, you'd have your 100 wins if you hadn't started the 1st 40 games or so with all R1s in that park! :P

[cummings2]

:lol:

I'll cry a river not for Kotch... but for losing 102 and counting :cry: :wink:

Always tough to not be able to compete. Well... next year hopefully Kotch and Maggs will be ale to do something for the ailing Offense... and my CFs Granderson-Hunter, and Francoeur, and Carlos lee... oh well... we'll see. Good Luck y'all in the P-offs.

Wow this will be interesting.

I am 1 game back from the WC. I have the tie-breaker for both teams that are 1 game ahead. Both of those teams play each other. If one wins 3 games, I need to win 1. If one wins 2 games I need to win 2. But I also have to watch and make sure I keep ahead of Sandy who is 1 game behind me (who I also have the tie-breaker with). I am playing at Philly Phanatics who I have a great record vs. but have 4 starters injured.

So if I win 2 I am in. If I win 1, Sandy needs to win 2 or less and the fowl/qk needs to be 3-0 either way. If I win 0 I am out.

Bedard vs Young
Wang vs Carpenter
Halladay vs Sanchez

at Camden Yards

Wish me luck.

Nope, 'cause my permutations to get in are even tougher than yours...
