I never look any of my players in the eyes, if we make eye contact in the elevator then I have to trade them to jeff or nasboat.

This Sizemore contract was probably not a good idea...

S30 New Orleans Spirits: like the World Series winner but older and more expensive!



C: Cozy Goldberg - Old. Power is slipping, but he still rules. gently caress pitch calling.
1B: Austin Fox - Old. Power is going, so giving him a three year extension was probably a bad idea. He's been a Spirit for a long time so I have a soft spot for him.
2B: Elvis Leonard - Old. Power is falling off, signed for the next four years. World Series hero, don't give a poo poo about anything else.
3B: Sidney Alexander - Not old. Had a surprisingly great offensive season last year, he'll probably .OPS around .750 like he probably should this time.
SS: Larry Rodney - Oldish. Should platoon him, but I never do.
LF: Kyle Sparks - Young??? My only player who had significant growth instead of significant decline. May be Sparky's hated son.
CF: Robert Hafner - Old. Range isn't cratering yet so he's still useful and I love him.
RF: Ewell Swann - Not old! Hit 54 dingers last year. He's the best.

Bench:
C Chuck Schwartz - Pretty average, I should probably get someone better to spell Cozy but...eh.
UT Troy Herndon - No power dude who hit .335/.415/.339 last season, which owns.
UT Phil Gong - Don't care what he does I just wanted to get Hoss Mercedes from jeff.
RF Eliezer Velazquez - Guy who might be good against LHP and nothing else, don't know how useful that is.

SP Dee Bryant - Super great last year, now he's 40. SO OLD.
SP Jerry Sizemore - I just wanted someone who wasn't a skeleton and I had to pay 72 million to get it. Jerry owns though, except last year and the future probably.
SP Orlando Mercedes - Gave up my pick and overpaid for another art FA. Very old, but he has a pretty good track record.
SP Napoleon Dickinson - Super old, but he's been dynamite for me over the last four seasons so I wanted to bring him back.
SP Alfonso Baerga - Oldddd. Signed him for one year too many like most of my signings.

Bullpen~

Cutter Saarloos - Does not throw a cutter. Will be using him for more than 18 innings or whatever he pitched last season.
Pedro Guerrero - Very solid, very old.
Hub Phillips - Lefty from Plain Dealing, Louisiana. I had to sign him.
Raul Teheran - Cool dude who was super good last year.
Sammy Hernandez - Old, has a mix of good and bad years. Hopefully he is the good version.
John Ishida - Old, good, and cheap. Cool guy.
Jason Saunders - 7 stamina dude who isn't that good and also I overpaid for him.
Endy Mori - Old. Just old.

I should probably blow this poo poo up at some point but as long as the rest of the division stinks I can keep limping to division titles, probably. :spooky:

Jeez this is a stacked rule 5. This is even worse than the one with Kennedy/Fox/Hutchinson. :(

So following Devo's logic which I like( of someone from the other league). It looks like it should be one of AV, Gyro, Nero or AtheistDeals. (I just picked long time owners who are active in this thread/irc/twitter) Any of you 4 want to volunteer?

I'll do it, I'm not a genius or anything but it's better than nothing I suppose.

This is kind of a tough HOF year. Right now I'm on:

Alan High
Omar Melendez
Ken Toombs
Eddie Burke
Davey Krause

But I could definitely be swayed to some other guys.

This is mine except replace High with Mateo Cordero, my good friend.

I took an abandoned team on a 13 game losing streak, signed AAA pitchers and called up two good prospects who were ready and that catapulted me to second place. If I had the team from the start of the season it would definitely be in 1st. Whoever takes the team after this season will have a good opportunity to win a lovely division.

It's nice that I lost 2 of 3 to Chicago even with their pitcher spot batting 3rd. Jerry Sizemore sucks and I regret re-signing him.
