NLD 42 - Are those guys still around?

We FINALLY have a Semper appearance!!!!

Thanks Jeep. Needed a little more pop in the lineup and JD fits the bill.

In case you guys missed it in the inbox, here's what Jeep had to say about his transaction:

Fittingly, Mr Fragile, AKA Giancaro (don't call me Mike anymore) Stanton, on the weekend he tore his groin and will be out the rest of the season, has joined the Accents squad. The Accents now have rostered Miggy, Panik and Stanton. Manager Jeep was at Walgreens loading up on medical tape and first aid supplies and could not be reached for comment.

Stoney, you are welcome.

All is quiet on the Semper front. Must mean he's happy with the sims. I should be worried I guess since I'm in his division!

Whoops, there he is!

Almost half a millon I'm not using. Very rare I don't use most of my dollars, but I don't see anywhere that I can upgrade. Just finished a league where Stonton had 60+ HRs in Marlins Park. I'll take 50 here and be happy.

Jeep,

Well, you have some room to make moves if you want I guess. Hawk is sitting with almost a mil so, I'm betting he'll make a move at some point soon.

I see Semper finally finished making moves (for now). It's a very interesting team. I don't think I've ever seen a team start seven LHB against LHSP!!! I don't even think the Silver teams of yore did that. He is definitely going to hit RHP better than LHP unless they are very backward.

I also see that Dale finally used up his cap room.

I was happy to pick up Escobar after Semper cut him. The Russell/Andrus platoon was probably better overall, but I liked picking up a 1 with speed. It also allowed me to improve my platoon in LF v LHP and Ross over Duffy is an upgrade too.

No Comments so far on your starts?

I think my team has been lucky as heck.

Went to the Giants/Mets game last night. Mad Bum against deGrom, gotta be a pitcher's duel right????

Yeah, both were gone by the 6th and the final was 10-7 with Bum going DEEP against deGrom to over come a 4-0 deficit.

Proving, once again, that Baseball will troll you when given the chance.
