mentholmoose posted:Anybody you're interested in on the Failures roster straight up for the pick? Tough to say; I like Pedroia but don't know if I'd want to get him just to platoon with Morgan, and I like McCovey but he's a bit young to be the power bat I want to pick up. I'll take another look at your roster later on to see if I see any one guy who'd be worth it to me. Edit - new page?

Food? Good, because it's time that Mark Grace got that gyros! - 2 votes B. That cashier isn't in great shape, some medical treatment might not be the worst idea. - 5 votes C. "Stop stalling, McGregor! You don't get me that agreement, signed by the D.A., and some rocket fuel, then bodies are going to start dropping! Is that what you want on your conscience? - 3 votes "Okay, McGregor," Mark Grace knew what he wanted, "The cashier's hurt...due to some crazy circumstance that I am in no way responsible for. But, either way, we need a medic, let's make that happen, because otherwise, I'm not going to need to execute a hostage, I'll just need to watch her bleed out." That news certainly didn't improve McGregor's mood. The last thing he needed was for people to start dying, especially like this. "You know, Grace, I can send in a paramedic but, if she's that badly hurt, maybe it would be smarter to let her go. After all, there's not much use for a dead hostage, is there?" "Stop loving with me McGregor. She's losing a lot of blood, I'd hurry. And get me the drat immunity agreement already. I'm patient, but I'm not that patient, and I think you're better off with me going free than a whole lotta people going down." Mark Grace hung up the phone. He was sure that McGregor was stalling, and that couldn't be good for him. McGregor grimaced, couldn't anything go easily. Still, it wasn't over yet, he could still pull this off... A few minutes, the medic arrived at the entrance. He was a couple of inches shorter than Grace, with a big, black mustache. Grace was concerned by that, after all, cops grow mustaches, but paramedics...that didn't seem right.... DECISION TIME! A. Refuse to allow the Medic in. B. Let the Medic in.

Faustoan Bargain posted:Got a couple names I'm interested enough in, but think I'd prefer to trade down at this point. Anyone looking to move up? I'd be open to taking a later pick plus a depth guy (or just two late picks, given how many holes my roster has), or might just give up the pick for a power bat/starter. Well, if you're sending down Harper, you'll have a gap at LF. I've got '51 Ralph Kiner: .309/.452/.627 that year, for a 185 OPS+. Lead the majors in home runs. If memory serves, he hit 30 HR for me the first two seasons in the League. Give me the pick - just look how well Averill is working out for you!

Emphatically C. Also while the Dervishes do not have any moves at this time, they would like to admonish their starting pitching to get it together. This reunited Vae Victis definitely feels different... In fact, something else is up with the entire Dynamo League. Every catcher is terrible according the the game's defensive metrics, with the least terrible starters as a rate being Roy Campanella and a Yogi Berra. Something seems off about this.

My thanks to the baseballing soviet of Cleveland - in keeping with Bob Feller and Sam McDowell, we will be drafting Smoky Joe Wood. Maddux is safer, but let other teams be satisfied with safety! We ride the fireball! Eddie Collins back to second base, Rickey back to LF. Send down old Will Clark, call up Tartabull and platoon him with Berkman, platoon Cedeño with Edmonds to give him an extra day off. Thanks, Smasher. Haha, B! (mentholmoose and the Failures are on the clock)

The Failures will play it safe and select '93 Greg Maddux. Send down Robin Roberts to fit Maddux on the roster, and set the rotation to Alexander-Maddux-Vaughn-Lester-Clemens. e: ManifunkDestiny and the Spokane Air Raids are on the clock. mentholmoose fucked around with this message at 12:18 on Dec 31, 2012 |

So apparently I own one Walter Johnson who will join my starting rotation. I would like to thank the commissioner and apologize for my on and off involvement in the thread. Work has been kicking my rear end and I have been pulling doubles for the last 10 days (except for Christmas). Do not take my lack of action as a sign of apathy.

Let's re-shuffle the vs RHP lineup to bring back Big Hurt and give Frisch and Cronin some rest: 2B Rose LF Speaker 1B Thomas CF Charleston RF Robinson C Torre/Robinson 3B Youkilis SS Tejada P Pitcher As for the obit vote, I guess I should vote C since the Vikings did knock the Bears out of the playoffs.

So when do drafted players activate? I know you have to add 'em all. Giles to RF, Brett platoons at third with Schmidt, Larkin goes to SS. Clearly B.

Teddy goes back to right field and Barrence to left. Discontinue the CF platoon. Purple Jesus! B.

Warm Sarsaparilla posted:So when do drafted players activate? I know you have to add 'em all. They activate when you pick them. Also, anyone voting 'A' or 'B' has made a powerful enemy. And for that matter, you are all so loving lucky you didn't grow up in an authoritarian dictatorship, because you'd all get executed on your first day. The dictator would be like "Man, I really like Blue Oyster Cult!" and you'd be like, "Nah, they were always kind of lame, and their lyrics were laughable at best, and anyone who liked them is a loving moron who should made fun of!" And that's when the shooting would start. "Oh, man, I'm so happy the 49ers get a bye!" Well, BearDrivingTruck, let's see if the Mogul engine won't get some revenge for me!

Well, if it's any consolation, the 9ers are probably not going to make it to the Superbowl, especially with Justin Smith out. Them getting a bye week makes me happy because it sort of makes me feel like they actually can. Don't ruin this moment of happiness, dude.

CthulhuDreams posted:
Box Score TVTVTVTVTVTVTVTVTVTVTV : Grumble : So, uh...feeling better. : No. And I apologize for nothing. : Really not even- : Nothing! Now, the first TV defense of the day is the Arguments against the Phoenixes. The Phoenixes have the best record in the Smasher League, and the Arguments made a total of zero title defense in their previous two reigns as Television Champions. If the Arguments win, it will be a miracle. Still, it's a four game series, and they will win Game 1. They just might have a chance. : The Phoenixes have made a few adjustments to their lineup this year, and, disappointingly, it looks like those might be enough to give them another championship. : Phoenixes take Game 2, and they'll still need to win the remaining two games of this series to win the TV Title. : Marco Scutaro is not a real shortstop. : And the Arguments will retain for once, as Wakefield continues to have the best season he could possibly have! : He only has three wins. : Like I said, the best season he could have. : Phoenixes will get a split in the series, as Flash Gordon won't save the day this time. : Was Tom Gordon really called Flash? : I believe the Yankees even played the Queen song when he entered the game. : And now, please rise for the playing the Soviet National Anthem, in honor of the Cleveland Commies. : The Commies have been hot all month, and winning their first title would be a great way to build on that momentum. : And Strasburg will win Game 1, and that gives the Commies an excellent shot at winning the TV Title here. : And the Commies will win their first TV Title with a win in Game 2! : At least Snuffy hit a triple... : And the Commies complete the sweep, and they look better than ever. : Poor Snuffy, he just can't get a break. : Don't care! Next week, it'll be Commies-Smokers and then either Commies-Landers or Smokers-Phoenixes. Team Statistics Analysis I think Slaughter might be a better platoon partner for Evans than Carey. Analysis You really need another starting pitcher. Analysis Yours is a problem without many good answers. Analysis The eternal tragedy of the Phoenixes' #5 starter spot... Analysis Putting Velarde at 3B over Schmidt is grounds for immediate relegation. Analysis So...drafting a 3B in the draft, then? Analysis Clemens continues to improve, and now the Landers are unstoppable. Analysis The problem with your players is that they're old, and a bunch of them need days off. Analysis At least your pitching is exciting! Analysis Fair to say that Johnny Damon may not be the answer in CF. Analysis By taking the '11 Red Sox...you have become them! Might as well get a bucket of Popeye's chicken to celebrate! Analysis It's still early. Analysis I can't explain your latest hot streak. Analysis You need more starting pitchers. Analysis Can nothing stop them? Analysis You really can't find a better DH than Ellis Burks? Standings and Leaders : gently caress you all, I'm not working on New Year's Eve! Grace out, fuckers!

I decided I'm going to be as irritating as mornacale and setup a spreadsheet to track my team's roster changes. Comme Ça (apologies to mornacale for shamelessly stealing his poo poo) The gist of it: Promote Enos Slaughter, send down Yaz. New lineups to give Fred Lynn a few days off. Switch Eck and Campbell's slots in the bullpen.
