You have GOT to be sh*tting me....He and Plummer are stinking it up, and I have both of them (and thought I had a killer team)! How are M. Harrison and R. Moss doing at WR today?? I hope they're at least playing to expectations!!! :eek: :(
Harrison plays tonight (GO G-MEN!!) and Moss plays Monday night.

You missed my earlier post. A sac fly doesn't count as an AB, but a run-scoring groundout does. I wondered if anyone knew why that's so?
Someone said "eeniee, meanie, minie mo" and decided to pick one. :P

You don't want a pitcher with fatigue issues to have zero work. You want light duty.

I'm rooting hard for AZ later, theyre my survival team in 2 leagues, and I have Boldin on one fantasy team, and Fitzgerald and Warner on the other.
AZ is my survival team this week in our NYYFANS league. I joined two survival leagues so I'd have a chance in one of them. With the NE win, I'm still alive in the yahoo public league I joined.

Bruney will blow him away.
I swear, sometimes it's like Torre feels like he has to "earn" his managerial salary by making pitching changes that AREN'T NECESSARY !
Why did Wright need to come out before he got the third out that inning, in a game where he was ahead by 8 runs????
I think that's over-managing by Joe.

What he did earlier has NOTHING to do with his crappiness now. I don't expect him to be a 2.00 ERA guy, but I also don't expect a 9 ERA guy, which is what he's been lately.
