Avatar I'm right there with you. My guys had a horrible day yesterday - just about everyone was 0/3 or 0/4 in batting. Today they are looking better though. Arod already has 1 homer.

But, as we all know, this is only day 3 of the season, so we hardly have a representative sample set. I'm hoping all of Ebel's and Biscan's pitchers get injured.

Avatar biscan's pitchers at least. problem is, they're not too big of injury risks, other than maybe pedro.

woody, you won't finish in last. you shouldn't, at least.

Avatar Biscan offered up a trade of his second rounder (Martinez) for my second rounder (Ortiz), along with a bunch of other crap trades. Problem is, I think Ortiz is much more valuable than Martinez. Plus, he wanted me to give away Oliver Perez in the trade, who isn't that much worse than Martinez. Oh, and he wanted Figgins, who I'm counting on getting me about a third of my stolen bases.

Avatar How long does it take for someone to appear as on the DL? Alou hasn't played lately because he is on a 15 day DL, but I can't DL him on my roster.

And while I'm griping - Chone Figgins is aggrevating me. I know its only been 3 games, but he is 0/11 in batting. ZERO for freakin ELEVEN. I have him for his baserunning, but its hard to steal when you can't get your butt on base.

Avatar yeah, i'm kinda annoyed at jaun uribe right now. he's batting .077. not stellar. i'm sure he'll pick up, however.

one thing that is annoying me is that last year i basically had no basestealers, and this year i got pierre, castillo, crisp etc to make sure i was gettin some steals. well, they're not stealing bases. and yes, its a 162 game season and things will pick up. but they should be doing it now damnit, now now now.

also, wtf wont gagne get off the dl? and someone needs to tell me why trevor hoffman's ERA is 54. at least he recorded an out in his first save attempt. thats better than braden looper.

Avatar jim - you can put a guy on the dl the day after his team officially puts him on the dl. Alou went on the DL yesterday, so you should be able to do it now. Often a team waits to see if a guy gets better before officially putting him on the DL, which can be annoying.

Figgins, Uribe, and Gagne should all end up fine.

You guys really like that steals category. Personally, I kindof prefer power, almost to the point where I tank steals. A HR hitter will help in runs, hr, rbi, and slg categories. Baseswipers help in steals and that's really it (though maybe runs a little too). But to each his own - it does kindof suck for me to basically tank an entire category every year...

Avatar Well, Figgins is the only player I got specifically for steals, I think. Plus I can stick him in just about any position I want, so its good when I need to shuttle players around.

Avatar well, i'm trying to not tank any category. i got some guys with power (vlad, casey, anderson, beltre) in the starting lineup, and speed guys too (pierre,castillo, uribe/izturis) and a catch who should SHOULD catch 140 games in lo duca. sounded like good balance to me. and lo duca's offensive numbers should be up this year as a result of overall more offense in marlin's lineup. i think. i just wish gagne would get off the DL and trevor hoffman's era was in the single digits. i'm really hurting in the save catergory. and also, for some reason my WHIP is a bit high. i blame clement.

ebel, you think haren's gonna be good this year? i think it may be his break out year. i picked up him as a contingency since gagne went on the DL.

Avatar Arod is REALLY starting to tick me off. He went 0-4 AGAIN today. His average is now just barely over .200. For being the highest paid player in baseball, he sure is off to a horrible start.
So far for the season, the next worse player who can play 3B is Chone Figgins - and he is a baserunner, not a slugger.

This is miserable.

Avatar Well.. This may be the only time I can say it: I'm in first place.

And what about Woody? Thats right - 9th. Suck it down, Woody.
