NLD 37 - One More For 20 - 1 - 4

After Harper's third long stint on the DL, time to send him back to AAA ball to work on his game. While expected injuries, he had more episodes than Salty had home runs. At this current rate, he'd miss 27 out of the first 65 games. With my power park team hitting around At&T park levels, you can't wait that one out.

Moved Harper for Ethier and Pagan and upgraded Pressly with Rosario. HAL had a thing for Pressly out of the bullpen which seemed odd with the settings. Dropping him for Rosario might rid HAL of that desire.

I debated taking Banks for LF (LHP platoon) and blinked as I liked Pagan pre-draft. We'll see how that "5" injury roll holds up.

Hopefully - the changes don't mess up the team chemistry.

Semp,

Haven't had a chance to analyze, but I understand the frustration. Still, you're doing OK even with the injuries.

Congrats to Spider and "In the Gap" for sweeping the crazy Mooseheads last night!!!

The Mooseheads pitchers are starting to show their salaries - they've allowed 5 runs or more in 5 of the last 7 games.

Ditto for Big Al and the Braumeisters.

I know there won't be any charity Christmas collections for the Mooseheads, but they're falling back to earth, having lost their last 7!

Moosehead pitchers have now allowed 5 or more runs in 8 of their last 10 games.

I'll ask, no, beg! When can we go back to playing our own division?!?

My pitching is about half a run away from where I thought I could get it. But that is killing me as my offense is much weaker than I thought it could be.

My guys just returned to normal after a nice run going 1-9 over their last 10 games. At this rate, I could have waited on Harper to get back off the DL.

I'll ask, no, beg! When can we go back to playing our own division?!?

Stoney, I'm sure it will happen soon enough, but be careful what you wish for.

Semper, Don't you hate when you make a move and you lose anyway. Blah.

Smokey, ratings will be out sooner or later. REally busy with Xmas and life right now.

GB, well, playing .700 ball wasn't likely to last.

Ok, here's a weird one for you. Kris Medlen, an e15, made three errors in the same game, including on back-to-back plays that included one single, and..... won!

Obviously it helps when you score 12 runs.

Weird huh?

Wow, I thought the 18 CG of my team were prettty good, but the Renegade Hawks have 40 (!) and the Burgh Boyz have 32.

That is impressive. And Burgh Boyz 2 is in a hitter's park.
