Shifting Sands LG., AD has run. Waivers run Fri., 5pm EST!

[modmark46]

Honestiago, even if it goes the full 7 games, you will be over after Wed. nights/Thur. morning's games run. So, you should be good to get your team in by Thur. at the latest. That should assure we fill by this Thursday, at the latest, giving us a Sat. Frenzy. Wed. would be even better, but I don't want to root for you to lose in your Finals. :)

I'm in. OakAth to fill central. Kind of like my team. That is of course if I get everyone. Have a feeling I'm going to hate it post AD and have a lot of work to do.

[honestiago1]

Well, good news! I lost. :-( Freakin' Venters (0-3, 14+ ERA in the playoffs).

Anywayz, I'll have this done today.

[GFDWARF07]

OK, I figured out a way to use my "smart" phone (whose supposed smarts I was doubting up to now) to tether to my laptop and connect to the internet. It will still be dirt slow, but that should help out a lot on Sunday.

I will quit whining about having to do this on my phone now. :oops:

And sorry you lost, honestiago.... If any of the goats/culprits for the loss are still alive, send 'em a bill for the credit! We should have that right.

[honestiago1]

yeah, Venters sucked it up good in the playoffs. Prior to that, I actually lost both him and Marmol for 15G each at different points in the season. 98 wins nevertheless, a comeback in the semis, came back from 2-0 in the finals to even it before dropping two straight. I figured if I got to Josh Johnson in game #7 it was mine, but alas...

Anyways, roster is done. Ready to load when West is open. Will switch back to central if the commish wants me to.

[honestiago1]

It's pretty hard to put together rosters with an eye for lineups. Seeing as how my HR hitter is last, and my catcher leads off, and I have to platoon in a righty slanted park, and some idiot made me take 5 R's, 5 L's and 5 S's. :-)

If there's something called sabermetrics, this is the opposite of it (take that, Billy f'in Beane).

[Paul_Long71]

yeah, sandsometrics is a very tricky form of mathematics and definitely not for the faint of heart.
