whoa, Shifty, you signed up for the fantasy league? I only wanted a 12 man league and Hyun was supposed to get the last spot. (:/) Guess we'll have 13 then.

EDIT: Shit, I know what happened, I can't count. We had 9 guys and I said there were going to be 12 so you signed up. My bad, we'll just have odd numbers then.

i've been prayin for that for about 7 years now...

but now we got both wood and prior hurtin, not good news.

on the plus side, we get our polish monster back, looks like borowski is gonna close again. his arm looks good, and he's getting his velocity back.

Yeah, its Thursday at 10:30 ET. I was going to make it in the order everyone registered but I left it at random, we'll find out half an hour before the draft takes place.

Prince Fielder

Miguel Cabrera

 

[ManU2000]

Milton Bradley

Oh yeah, Bonds is out probably until mid-May. Thank god, maybe now we'll have a chance to win the division.

Miguel Cabrera

Yankees pitching 5.

Randy Johnson
Mike Mussina
Carl Pavano
Jarred Wright
Kevin Brown.

Looks pretty amazing in theory.

Unit - Pray that his right knee holds up

Mussina - may struggle but very reliable otherwise

Pavano - can he deal with the pressure of playing in New York

Wright - Same as with Pavano. Also, was his season last year a result of Leo Mazzone getting him sorted out or was it a fluke? (Remember he's struggled ever since he broke through with Cleveland, until last season that is.)

Brown - Hope he doesn't bust his hand on another wall. He'll get hurt anyway, just don't know how.

 

[Chacarita Juniors]

Ok, so to answer my question:

Miguel Cabrera is the popular pick to be the next big mo-fo.

I also like these guys...

SS-Khalil Green
2B-Chase Utley
C-Joe Maur
SS-Rickie Weeks
SP-Edwin Carlos*son
SP-Rich Harden
2B-Josh Barfield
CF-Delmon Young
SP-Cole Hamels
SP-Felix Hernandez

Rickie Weeks is a Second Baseman. JJ Hardy is the Shortstop in the Brewers organization. And you forgot Prince Fielder

I only posted MY favorites...nothing against "Prince" but he ain't one of my fav's just because I never even seen a pic of him. (:/)

Yes, yes I know he's a stud at the minors. I still take 1B-Tag Bozzied (AAA-Portland [Padres]) over him.

 

[Deisler]

Boston starters.

Schilling
Wells
Clement
Arroyo
Wakefield


Not bad at all

Well
Schilling is Schilling, no doubt on that (His ancle is his worst nemesis though)
Wells....If he can distinguish alcohol from baseball he will be fine
EDIT: He CANOT distingush it....that fat bastard is a scumbag
Clement...i like him but i really thing the injury will condition him.
Arroyo......fluke
Wakefield....BORINGGGGGGGGGGGG

Coments chino.

 

[ManU2000]

SP-Edwin Carlos*son

If he can control his pitches then yes, he'll be a good player. He's had some pretty bad problems with that since last season.

Boston starters.

Schilling
Wells
Clement
Arroyo
Wakefield

Schilling, Wells, and Wakefield (a majority of the time) are very reliable. Bronson should do pretty well this season and Clement is pretty inconsistent at times. There's my analysis.

DON'T FORGET ABOUT THE FANTASY DRAFT TOMORROW, THURSDAY MARCH 24TH AT 10:30 ET-7:30 PT PM

Hope that got your attention.
