He's trying to get JV to set an innings and pitches record, I think.

For most pitchers, that would be a worry. Verlander is a droid.

Moving this weekend require me to miss three days of updates. That may have been a blessing in disguise given the way my team is pitching right now.

[Xiomera]

I'm back, bitches! (sorta)


Too bad I benched Heath Bell out of anger and he got me a save.

Cishek with the W! I don't understand how my runs are so low right now though and Masterson's bomb hurts.

Sweet ******* jesus did this Liriano experiment ever fail.

[Xiomera]

Emilio Bonifacio is my hero. I fully embrace my genius in keeping him over some bigger, sexier names.

SERVES U RIGHT SINCE U STOLE KYLE LOHSE FROM MY TEAM. U are why my team is struggling. HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT. I still love you and Kyle Lohse.

My comeback was short-lived.

+14 yesterday, -10.5 today.

My vaunted offense featuring 6 first round talents has been ridiculously underwhelming.

[Giantsfan1080]

Masterson, Dickey, and Garza made my E.R.A. balloon all the way back up.

We moved to the burbs (Maplewood), but yeah. It's nice having a yard again; I missed it.

How the **** am I so deficient in home runs!? Jesus, that was supposed to be the strength of this lineup.

[Xiomera]

I'm curious to know what someone a little out of contention might offer me for Jacoby Ellsbury as a long-term investment. I'd deal him in an effort to "win now" and not wait out the 6-8 weeks he's out if someone wants him ... Offers?

I don't want to hear it. I'm last in HRs by 4. Last year Stanton, Votto, and Reynolds hit a combined 100 HRs. So far they have 1 between them.

I'm in the dumpsters too. Having Ryan Howard and Michael Morse on the DL is hurting me. I need to survive till June or trade them at a low price. Neither options are that great. :/

Thank god for Granderson. I guess his power last year wasn't a fluke. His third today was a cheapy but all his others this year have been bombs.

Yeah and Josh Hamilton has been playing like an MVP! Go Rangaz!!!!!

[yodapoop]

Some1 leads in HRs :)....Thank u Cardinals!

[Xiomera]

Trade me some of that power, Yoda.

Why the hell can't the 3 Tigers hitters I have be that good?

[yo123]

Apparently forgot to click submit on my roster today....goddamnit. Missed out on 11 K's from Vance Worley.

[Xiomera]

Big gripe with Yahoo — We should be able to swap different players into our lineup if a game is postponed after it gets locked. Tigers/Rangers just got postponed before ever starting. That's offensive production lost for a lot of us.

Stupid.

It would be an unfair advantange for those it happened to though, because once the make up game is made, you'd essentially get an extra game.

No, you wouldn't. There's 170 games played allowed for each slot. By having Avila and Cabrera in my lineup today, they aren't counting against that total, but I'm not allowed to put someone else in their place.

And when the doubleheader is played tomorrow, it'll count as 2 separate games out of the 170.
