Ah, I see. I was looking at Tuesday, which was so-so. Meanwhile, the Yankees kicked more wild card pretender ass. 5 in a row.

Or because I have much greater knowledge about football. I have only actively followed baseball for 2-3 seasons, football on the other hand I have followed for the past 10 years

I sent you a trade. Not sure if its something that fits your needs or not. I saw you had 2 catchers already but if you are interested in Ryan Doumit I am open to trading him. ranked as the 5th best catcher with the highest batting average for a catcher at .323
You know I am looking for a SP

My guess is that I rejected it before you wrote this post. I know you need starters but that isn't exactly something I can afford to give up. I'm still short on innings, really short on wins, and Wainwright is 3 weeks away. Victorino has zero value to me. He's a good player for runs and steals but my steals position seems to be etched in stone at this point and I prefer to get my runs scored via the long ball.

Not really. I'm not very far behind, and I'm getting Pierre back. I could get that point if I really wanted to, but I don't.

If I play Figgins, a recent acquisition, for Atkins you will have no shot no matter what you do. And Pierre is a fucking disaster in the other categories. Knock yourself out. You have other problems, most importantly zero moves left with over two months to go.

I only have 3 moves left so I am trying to make them count. I need to get myself an ace soon if I want any kind of run. Losing Chien Ming Wang and Fausto Carmona has really crippled me

Yeah I do have a little of breathing room in the wins category. Im surprised I have been able to dig into the saves category a bit after being way at the bottom.

You are not going to get an ace offering the likes of Shane Victorino. There are better OFs on the free agent list.

I hardly see asking for Chad Billingsly as an Ace. I was thinking more of moving Prince Fielder or Matt Holiday

 And they're both on my team. Oh well, shouldn't hurt me too much. I ought to be in second place, but every player on my team is having a bad power year. Yeah and I think the Marlins will take the east. They're getting both Sanchez and Johnson back and if even one of them puts up numbers like they had a few years back they'll win, no doubt. And fucking Yost is pitching Sabathia's arm out, fucker.

Only the fifth trade of the season...in my other Head-to-Head league there have only been two.
I'm banking on Sizemore giving me an offensive boost and praying this terrible run of Beckett's is rock-bottom and he's about to bounce back.

Yeah, I was about to decline that trade, but then accepted it on a whim. I dunno if it will actually help me or not, but I figure with how poorly I'm doing, it's worth a shot eh??

Yeah it's a last-ditch gamble on my part too. I'm hoping it helps me make some gains in R's, HR's, RBI's and SB's, what with Sizemore crankin' em this year and scoring a bunch. Who knows if Beckett will right his ship?

One thing it probably does is keep you ahead of me in Ks. If you can withstand the ERA pounding, that is.
