NLD 32 - Let's Play Two

I've clawed my way to .500, 1 game back of Hawk. My bullpen is definitely my achilles though, just gotta hope for more innings out of my starters...although they haven't exactly been stellar either. Just win baby!

Lost another series, 3-7 in the last 10 games ... this team isn't any good, management is even worse, we'll be lucky to finish at .500, little hope to get any better

Yeah, you have the best record in the league, but you don't know what you're doing??? Suuuuuure Big A, suuuuuure

Corky I haven't noticed the cases you mention, but I have to admit, I'm not checking them closely. Anyone else notice what Corky is talking about? Corky, one other thing, your trade of Swisher->Aoki->Revere didn't help your ratings any.

Hawk, yeah, a lot of BS for you. You're getting about 2/3 of your IP from SPs which is about average. All of your SPs are short SRs so that'll have an impact on the number of IP you'll get from them.

I have the park-by-park ratings, I'll post them when I get chance.

Joe,

I had to do something...Swisher was god awful for a long period of time...Aoki was even worse. I never should have let Colvin go preseason.

And now we got swept by the dwarves Like I said we are probably done for this season ... Looking for a new manager to improve team chemistry and spirit. May be Lou Holtz is available? mmmhh

Hey don't be hatin the Dwarves! We're on a major roll that we've ridden into 1st place...no stopping us now!

Corky,

Perhaps, but you didn't give Aoki much of a chance. I think he might have helped your OB which is where you're hurting the most in terms of offense. Revere? Not sure that was the answer. Guess we'll see.

Big A,

Boy, talk about up and down. You were on that huge hot streak and now you've lost 10 of 12. I think you should start cutting players and pick up Manny Burriss to be your starting SS!

Keyz,

Hot streaks are fun aren't they? However, your division is so tight, I don't think there is time to rest on your laurels?

Say, has anyone seen Semper?? He seems to be missing in action No Moves, no comments, no links to "interesting" pictures. What Gives Semper!!!!!!!!!!

Jeeper, you've been awfully quiet also. Be good to hear from you man.

Coming down the stretch fellas, the Central and the West are wide open and there's a tie atop the East. Going to be an interesting stretch run I think.

Wow, talk about mood swings, we're six out going into Monday's games with Big A killing everyone and then boom, he goes 3-12 and we go 11-4 and we go from six out to two up. Wow. That's crazy whiplash.

Few games in life anger me as much as SOM online.

Joe in 220 AB's in this league Aoki has a .177 BA, .245 OB%, and a .250 SLG %....that's a pretty decent sample size of sucking. What was left in RF was awful so I went with a 1 range guy (despite the weak arm) to at least improve my D if I wasn't gonna get offense.

Doesn't matter what I do anyway because the gods certainly aren't on my side in this version of the NLD...i'd rather have a negative 100 run differential at this point and totally suck then to be positive and suck. Such a tease.
