Revenant Threshold posted:I'd be interested in teaming up my Knights with your Tsunamis. Your team looks really hamstrung by the Tag Team setup, in that you look to have some very useful guys but it also means taking something bad along with it... but hey, I'd guess that's also what you're looking to upgrade in the draft. Team up with components to be named post-draft? I'm in. Double Boggs and Double Thomas sounds hilarious.

Box Score Team Statistics Analysis You better not let that frog survive this division. Analysis Week 1 is always tough for offense. Analysis Oh no! Analysis The key to winning your division is to win lots of games. Analysis Huh, okay. Analysis Now is the time to panic. Analysis I think your pitching will probably do better. Analysis You beat the Hoss, that's a good sign already. Analysis Like I said, I don't know how long Joe Wood will be able to hold out. Analysis Panic!! Wait, poo poo, never mind. Analysis That might be the best hitting I've ever seen in a week 1. *looks at Dem Bois* oh Analysis Is Kelsie Whitmore going to be good again? Because she's not really supposed to be good. Analysis Keep having a 2.14 ERA and you'll do fine. Analysis I... do believe in Modern Love? Analysis Hod Eller will take you to the promised land. Analysis The important thing is that you tried your best. Analysis Needs more dinger. Analysis This Giles kid, I tell you, he'll be a big star for them Phightin's! Analysis You can do better than that. Analysis Huh. Standings

How in the hell does my Jim Jam have a stolen base?

Sweeping the Blues is a good sign. Dropping two 1-run games in the first week, less so. It's just one week, so no changes, but I'm gonna keep an eye on Raines in case Delahanty needs to sub in.

The Merry Marauder posted:Well, your Hit & Run slider is 2, and Frank Robinson also has an SB, so I like to picture Jimmy Edmonds hacking away, and the catcher dismissing the possibility of a hit and run with them on base. The estimable sir Marauder is most likely correct. The Panderers have set steals slider to -4, yet Keith "I'm Keith Hernandez" Hernandez has 3 steals in 7 games. These are likely due to botched hit-and-runs (swing-and-miss instead of contact) where the runner outruns the throw. Your gentleman masher may have encountered similar circumstances and the backstop, no doubt stunned into apoplexy after noticing Thome strolling toward second base like Pooh waddles for hunny with the pitch, failed to make a good throw.

Thank you for that, I've just spent a delightful minute watching Jim taking grounders at first in 2012 spring training alongside "Up, Down, Touch the Ground."

The 11th Tag Team Championship Tournament: Writing Bad, Friendship Good Tag Teams? TAG TEAMS! The way this will work is that two teams, and it can be any two teams, whether they be from the Super-League, the Sub-Par League, or some sort of unholy union between a team from the Super-League and a team from the Sub-Par League, will team up to form a super-team, with each team providing two of the following four components: -Infield (1B, 2B, 3B, SS, DH, two backup IFs) -Outfield and Catcher (C, LF, CF, RF, a backup C, and two backup OFs) -Starting Rotation (SP1, SP2, SP3, SP4, SP5) -Bullpen (CL, SU, SR, SR, MR, LR) The winners get the greatest gift I am capable of giving: Immortality! That's right, the teams who win this tournament will be immune from relegation or demotion for a full season! And if you are in the Sub-Par league and are part of the winning tag team, you'll automatically be promoted to the Super-League proper for Super-League XXII, a season that hurts my head just thinking about it. Somehow, and I blame all of you, the two-time defending tag team champions are Arcade MACHINE, who are looking to be the first team ever to win a third straight tag team crown (winning two in a row being oddly common). I really, really do expect at least one team to be able to take down Arcade MACHINE, given that it's run by Beet, who's not here, and Yaya, who is Yaya. So, find yourself a partner, combine material from each of your teams, and create a child team that you both will cherish and nurture right up until it goes off to the tournament and disappoints you greatly. And then, you will know how your parents feels every time they think about you. Participating Teams! Arcade MACHINE (Sindhi Sheikhs/World Warriors) (c) The Baker-Bader Connection (Burns' Zephyrs/Base Cloggers) Scary Monsters and Super Freaks (Innsmouth Lookers/Modern Love) Guernica (Rochester Generics/Portland Panderers) CanaDA Bomb!
