Re: GM Change, Des Moines Kernels
Why did Lynchy leave? Anyway, welcome Blake. Good luck in the MBBA. It had gotten to the point where I couldn't commit to two writing leagues anymore with so much going on in my personal life (work, baby, house on the market, etc.). The writing was on the wall when I tried to write my preview about...

Ping: Commish
The spring training sim was pushed to April 1, thus giving all people on the 40-man roster a 300K contract and a day of service time. This shouldn't happened and has thus pushed me over the cap. I shouldn't have to cut prospects in AAA to get under the cap because of a simming error. Is there any re...

Re: Buffalo Bisons 2001 Preview
Man, Hunter is an absolute beast. And Bullrush is an enigma wrapped in a riddle. Why he hasn't pitched better, I'll never understand.

You can, but it's just not as likely. I hadn't noticed Izatt's demise. That's honestly too bad.KCCardinalFan wrote:I don't know Chris, you can still dominate with those ratings, see Lee Plemel from my team last year.

Re: Montreal Blazers 2001 Preview
Moving Whitley was definitely a mistake on my part. But I also have a title and two other Landis appearances to show for it, so I can't really complain. He's going to be a monster for a very long time.

Yeah, no way I get mine done before opening day. Probably Monday or Tuesday.

Quality Cheap OF Available
Because of cap concerns, I have to put RF Roberto Santiago on the block. He's got a lot of pop in his bat and is a very good corner outfielder defensively. In 235 at bats, he hit .319 with 14 HR, 61 RBI and a .934 OPS. I'll take the first decent offer I get on him, knowing that I'm outing myself wit...

Offensively, yes, Modz is a heaping pile of dog shit. But if he only acts as a defensive replacement, he should be useful as a 6th OF.LambeauLeap wrote:Torrealba is a tough loss but just didn't have enough room on the 40-man for him. Glad someone too Modz from me, that guy is a flaming turd.

Crothers was somewhere on my list for the Rule V. Nice pick-up.

I don't know if I've ever seen a pitching split as wide as Rentas. He could end up being an amazing lefty specialist out of the bullpen.

Re: The Kernel Journal - Vol. 7, No. 2 - Rule V Madness
I like the pickups. Id just hate knowing I have to keep all 4 of them on my roster all-season. Torrealba is nice, but may develop slower now since he has to be on the roster. I don't know. I've never fully figured out how much having guys like him on the ML roster slows down development. Yeah, obvi...

Re: Des Moines RP Conversion
Yeah, I was pretty excited to get him, because I had him targeted for my bullpen anyway. I don't use the conversion/specializations enough.
