2014 HBT Fantasy Baseball League

[coolharry]

Damn, wish I would a saw this earlier. If all else fails I'll take the team.

 

[WildGingerBrewing]

You can have it as far as im concerned. My buddy is not an HBT-er and i would guess hbt get first choice. Johnny?

 

[JohnnyO]

Sent a pm!

 

[JohnnyO]

Welcome aboard, CoolHarry and his Sewar Patrol team! Sorry to have to give Alfred's team away, but he's been MIA all season. Hope all is okay with him.

 

[WildGingerBrewing]

Glad to have a new owner. If another team should come available, my buddy still wants it. Welcome aboard Sewar Patrol!

 

[nickfern]

Awesome to hear.

 

[coolharry]

Hi guys, I'm your new owner. I've done yahoo leagues in the past but this will be my first experience with ESPN fantasy, so I've got some looking around to do. I see I've got a nice hole to dig myself out of right away, but as a diehard Brewers fan, being in last place is nothing new.
Cheers.

 

[JohnnyO]

Haha welcome aboard from a fellow bottom feeding Mets fan.

 

[coolharry]

Who needs a new closer? I have no need for six of them...

 

[Darwin18]

Harry, always interested let me know.

 

[WildGingerBrewing]

Welcome. As lifelong Ranger fan, i am also used to the bottom. With the exception of 2010 & 2011 of course it's a fun league. I'm sure you will enjoy it. Good luck!

 

[JohnnyO]

Any day now, I'll get some of my regulars back in the lineup.
Any. Day. Now...

Hahaha im still waiting on Verlander's return if it makes you feel any better.

 

[WildGingerBrewing]

How bad does it hurt to have picked up Gallo yesterday, and then NOT play him. OUCH!

 

[nachodad]

I was so torn on starting the first game up. Now I'll start him and see a golden sombrero.

 

[WildGingerBrewing]

hahahaha That's the way baseball go!

 

[JohnnyO]

Just snagged him off the wire in my other league. Should be a fun little ride. (never said that about a dude before).

 

[WildGingerBrewing]

hahaha I hope calling him up wasn't a mistake. Rangers ruined Profar and Odor by calling them up too soon. Gallo is supposed to be temporary until Beltre comes back, about 2 weeks, but a lot can go wrong for a young kid in that amount of time. I sure have enjoyed watching him play AA for the last couple of years though!

 

[coolharry]

Well if it makes you feel better, all my players are pretty much healthy and I have not a single win to show for it lol.

 

[bosoxdave]

Hey all! Who wants a catcher?

I have a healthy Vogt, Yan Gomes and Jonathon Lucroy. I am looking to trade 1.

Prefer pitching in return, but will take an upgrade wherever.

 

[coolharry]

Need a closer? I've got papelbon, casilla, Chapman and britton.

 

[bosoxdave]

Not looking for a closer, but I appreciate the thought!

Dave

 

[Darwin18]

Finally got some players off DL this week and my team woke up last night to put up some points. Tanaka was out for three weeks with a "very mild" forearm sprain and Cain seems content to collect a paycheck without playing this season....very frustrating!

 

[WildGingerBrewing]

Trade offer sent. The first one is a mistake. I cancelled it and sent another.

 

[JohnnyO]

Dave, got your trade request. I'm away from home. Quite interested. Going to check out the details when I get home tonight.

 

[WildGingerBrewing]

Holy crap! FNG beat my ass!!!! Wow. Nice week. Way to go.

 

[JohnnyO]

Holy crap! FNG beat my ass!!!! Wow. Nice week. Way to go.

Ha! Congrats FNG!

I am still interested in that trade if you are...I think it expired. Thoughts?

Dave

 

[coolharry]

Thanks guys, it was nice to get that first win out of the way so early in the season lol.

 

[JohnnyO]

I am still interested in that trade if you are...I think it expired. Thoughts?

Dave

Sorry Dave. I'm crazy busy this week. Getting a grant in to try and keep my job for a while longer. I'll look into a trade next week. Definitely interested, but not sure it was juicy enough to give up my best pitcher.

No worries and good luck with the grant!

I can replace Cole with other good pitchers you have, to make the deal go. Take your time, no inherent urgency on my end.

Dave

 

[WildGingerBrewing]

Not to brag or anything, but, have you seen how kick ass my team was this week!!!! Holy crap!!!

 

[bosoxdave]

So Scherzer gave me 63 points on Sunday, final tally is not in, but will be more today. He may even keep my perfect, but that remains to be seen.

Gotta love it!

 

[nickfern]

The peaks and valleys with scoring in this league is fascinatingly frustrating.

Routed last week, high score this week thus far... Enjoyable to say the least.

 

[Guidry]

I just got a good old ass whoop in' from the Waiver Wire Heroes this week.....

 

[coolharry]

I thought for sure I'd hand you your first loss. Until that damn no-no I thought I had a comfortable enough lead. Nope.

Yah he and Tyson Ross gave me over 100 pts alone on Saturday. That was the difference maker.

I thought you had me too.

My hitters bailed me out towards the end of last week. You had me nervous mid-week though.

 

[bosoxdave]

Down goes Frazier! Down goes Frazier!

Ok, I am down but most certainly not out...

Pretty happy to have made it to July with a 0 in the second column.

GO SOX!!

 

[WildGingerBrewing]

Hmmmmmm I think that is 4 wins a row! Time to get it in gear!
