| Message | part II.. dan has sort of a hybrid of tim/harold as he has lots of upside but his risk is somewhat more spread. i like his starters a lot (reminds me of my team last year ((i'll take that as a tip of that hat to me?)) but i don't like some of the batters (but then i didn't do any batter prep so perhaps they're awesome. dan actually pulled off almost exactly what i intended on doing except i got caught repeatedly price enforcing (which turned out to be a problem since i don't do dollar values! woops) as for my team i thought i was done like dinner after spending a lot of money on a few players in a very short amount of time. main problem was i didn't really care for those players! thankfully pat relieved me of $50 in closers for the negligible price of $4. still stuck with berkmann, CC and Webb but they were easier to work with. my personal prediction: in the same way that i pulled off the greatest bang-for-buck starting staff of all time last year i think my bullpen will profoundly surprise you all. my big ifs : IF wood stays healthly and closing my pen will be another amazing bang-for-buck staff of five. or not. cont.. |

| Message | i never scrutinize everybody's teams to closely.. but with a quick glance i have to say that i think Harold and tim are the front runners (besides me being the obvious shoe-in for champion, of course  . i am really surprised at tim's batting. IF, and its a huge IF, but if tim's starters can stay healthy and productive i think tim may run away with it. however, lackey, zambrano and harden are a walking time bomb and Hughes is no sure thing either. but when tim has won he's been bold and this sure counts. harold doesn't have as much upside but he also has way less downside. his IF is whether his outfield can keep the batting line in the upper half. its not as big as an if as tim's but it also is no sure thing. cont.. |

| Message | What's going on with draft day guru this year. Do we vote on it now or did we switch back to the end of the year for some reason? What's the verdict. Let's get some opinions on how the draft went... do you like your team, what your strategy was... how did it turn out etc. |

| Message | Teams are in, yahoo id: ulb_2008, password: baseball . I seem to be missing Dans last reliever and Jeffs first slim pick. Kernshaw is not availiable yet in the yahoo game so I will add him when he becomes available. Any picks this year phone me on my cell to make sure I get the message, number is 7788470356. Last year it seemed I would check the banter board 9 out of ten days and it seemed the odd day I would forget to check and somebody would post a message and we would have to make an adjustment to the stats. Also the banter board has no clock on it so that kind of sucks, so by phone is the official way to get your picks through this year. 9PM is the cut off time, and will be strictly enforced this year. Also if youre wondering why there are two util spots its because yahoo position eligibility is a bit different than ours so it allows some flexibility so that all our player stats count. There is finally a hits per nine inning category so the stats will be legit now, the only thing is the number is going to look something like 7.5 as opposed to .85, but the points will remain the same. Can somebody check the teams to make sure I didn't miss anything else? I am over the John Maine debacle and look forward to a monster season out of phil hughes, and also wish for a healthy first month from harden until lackey comes back or my pitching staff will be absolute crap. My projections show a close race, so good luck to all except for Hendrick who can suck on a bag of balls |
