As you may or may not know, the Dynamo League and Smasher League have separate save files this season. The main upshot for you is that the finals, for logistical reasons, will need to either use the DH in every game, or not use it in any game. Now that's not really a problem, after all, that was the rule in real baseball from 1976-1985, and it's not like we think any of those series are tainted. Well, I guess Cardinals fans still bitch about '85, but that's for completely different reasons. Anyway, I suppose we could flip a coin, or give the advantage to the team with the better record in the regular season but that's not really the baseball way, is it? No, I think the only reasonable choice is to have a seven game all-star series to determine the winners. But how to pick the all-star teams? Once again, the MLB provides the answers. We'll use the following rules: -You'll vote for starters from a list of nominees that I choose. (And you don't need to be an owner to vote, anyone can). -In picking the nominees, I've only chosen one copy of each player. -Oh, and you have to pick a manager for each team, who will arrange the lineups and bullpen a such. -The Managers, in consultation with me, will pick the pitchers and reserves. -Every team must have at least member on the 25-man roster, so I'll have to pick reserves according to those rules. -For the sake of the all-star series, since no one goes to all-star games, even fantasy, fantasy ones, to see the pitcher hit, we'll use DH rules for that series. -Have fun!

 I won a game! Three in fact! Everyone gets to take a holiday in the Lake District for that - please don't break your ankles on the rough terrain though. Smasher Dynamo posted:Analysis Unfortunately so. However, I also think this an opportunity to try out that thing I got told not to do: As soon as Shawkey is healthy, bring him up for Kern. He'll take Vance's spot in the rotation. In the bullpen, move Smoltz to closer, bumping everyone down a slot. The hole at long relief created by Kern should be filled by Vance. Also, have McGriff spell Thomas for the Losers series.

The Goog posted:I was hoping to get the pick because of the flexibility it offers, but I totally understand your desire to hang onto it. Would you be willing to move just Feliz for Hafner? If you're really excited about the pick we can talk about one of your other 1Bs. Upgrading to a slightly better platoon left 1B doesn't excite me, but you have some righty bats that absolutely do.

I like the pick, but I wouldn't want to move Bagwell or Greenberg unless I was getting a more substantial return. My offer of Hafner for Feliz is still on the table, but if you want to discuss Bagwell or Greenberg, we can do that too; would you be able to upgrade me at second, third or catcher?

  : Okay, Episode 2: Day of the Dunn, Part 2. So, Adam Dunn is getting beat down by the Three True Outcomes when suddenly, out of nowhere, a time portal opens and Cyber-Dunn steps out. The Outcomes aren't sure what to do, so they try attacking him, but Cyber-Dunn's too strong for that and he makes them run with his laser cannons and energy saber...metric. Mark Reynolds, who's the weakest, gets totally humiliated by Cyber-Dunn so they all run away. Anyway, so then Cyber-Dunn explains to Adam Dunn that he's the future-Dunn, who comes from a world where he failed to stop Richie Sexson from taking over. So, the future sucks, and he feels guilty that he couldn't stop it. So, to make things right, he's come back in time and is going to mentor present Adam Dunn. Present Dunn asks why it's up to him to save the world, and then Cyber-Dunn explains that he is the Chosen Dunn that must bring balance to the sabermetrics, and that he must learn the ways Adam Dunn says he doesn't understand but then, suddenly, they are attacked by Dante Bichette, who says that "It's time for you to Rocky Mountain Die!"

Box Score   Don May posted:
Box Score   The Statpocalypse      Analysis Twelve games straight! Why question it?      Analysis Center field is clearly the weak link in your lineup.      Analysis Do you feel good about robbing the Bearers like that? Bagwell for a 40 year-old starter and a reliever you weren't even using. Larry Andersen would have been kinder.      Analysis I suppose it is appropriate that a team named the 'Phoenixes' does tend to be up and down.      Analysis Your first good week in a while but you aren't going anywhere until you deal with the Delahanty situation.      Analysis Seeing as your a Seahawks fan, I would think that you'd be interested to know in the C/DH glitch that would allow you to effectively bat Gibson twice if you assign him as the personal catcher of one or more of your starters. It's a total cheat, but, well, Golden Tate would approve.      Analysis I really do hate that Chuck Knoblauch isn't killing your team. Very frustrating. Then again, given how the pitchers you got from Cthulhu are tanking, it looks like your trades aren't, on the whole, working out for you anyway.      Analysis Let's give it a bit more time before I rule on your Pedro challenge.      Analysis Braun needs more HGH.      Analysis Okay...uh...want to go back to your normal lineup now?      Analysis Above .500 again thanks to Zach Wheat and the Double Jack (Clark) Attack. Now, if only Tim Lincecum could straighten himself out. Ironically, of course, the real-life Giants are hoping for the same thing.      Analysis Matt Williams may be too much of a free-swinger to be anything more than a platoon bat. I'm not sure that's the case, but I'm starting to think it's what's happening.      Analysis You guys aren't going to die easy, are you?      Analysis Yoshida has the most innings pitched out of any of your relievers. I don't know that that's a good thing.      Analysis That third base spot is a black hole right now.      Analysis Let's hope benching Rance turns things around. Standings and Leaders

Faction War upd--gently caress it. Here is your faction war update: poo poo went down, probably no real change, I don't care enough to check, and Smasher probably won't hold anyone to it because it won't get rid of the Cultists like he planned or something.

The mills of Lincecum grind slowly, but they grind exceedingly small. Hopefully. That paraphrasing may have been an attempt to get a nice segue into praising Wheat which I couldn't actually work out well enough, or it might not. Anyway, that looks plausibly like Vaughan is back now, which will call for some rearranging now that others have rested and after I figure out why my desperation roster has clawed us back up to second.

Rochester Generics Only vote for Barry Bonds in LF for the All-Star game but that seems like an uphill battle for representation  Draft Preferences: Round 1: Best of either SS/3B, at least no worse than Cronin in SS or Chipper Jones in 3B. If not, then a catcher no worse than Munson. If not, then a cyanide pill and your best SP. Round 2: As above, but the best pitcher available from either SP or RP.
