[the heat]

If we're still skipping Stephen, then DMT next?

Yes. I've sent a PM to DMT, Pogues, and joncarlos. Stephen can make both of his picks any time.

[Don Quixote]

After kicking a** Thursday (28 picks), we've gone 19, 15, and a whopping 6 on Sunday. That's not a good trend.

silentmist on deck
Moonlight in the hole for two

[Hammer]

we need to start considering replacing Stephen or at least getting a sub while he is MIA.

[Stephen]

Nope, I'm fine and here. I'm not MIA, I just had a very busy weekend.

And you did notify us beforehand. Now the weekend is over, and...

[Hammer]

sorry Stephen. I didn't realize you gave a heads up prior to the weekend.

Still waiting on the last three teams to join in the Yahoo league.

I believe these three are Moonlight, DMT, and silentmist. That's based on the assumption that mgwizz = It's gone to the Dog. For the other 16 it is clear who owns the team.

[Stephen]

No worries man. I'm going on very little sleep. Didn't mean to come across as snippy.

So I looked at my rostered and realized how "Risk/Reward" I am with guys like Hamilton/Upton etc in key spots, so why not pick Jeter and Springer! I'm all in and hoping 70% of these guys hit.

Going for the "I told you so" win?

So many starting pitchers were getting taken who weren't in my top ten that I was beginning to doubt my list. Masterson ended that run.

Don't get me wrong, the ones who were getting taken were on my list, just not that high up. I looked at Sabathia and Lackey and said, "The recent numbers just don't justify..."

I had Masterson just ahead of CC. Watching the Yankees down the stretch I kept trying to talk myself into the fact that CC was getting better, but he never did. Seeing how good he looks this off-season I tried to talk myself into it again but I'm still not convinced. Still a tough park, still has declining velocity, and still has a pretty terrible infield defense behind him.

But hey, Masterson going from 6.9 k/9 to 9.1 k/9 is totally sustainable

I fully believe that CC's decline is velocity is due to loss of weight. I think it's messed with his mechanics. It's possible he can adjust and rebound but age is also becoming a factor with him.

after evaluating with revo whats been done so far, I am very comfortable waiting 6 or 7 rounds minimum before I select my first SP in my upcoming serps.

[revo]

I guess Pogues doesn't know Bonifacio was released.
