    I think that's a double-edged sword, meaning then you don't have those same guys who can be a lightning rod for talent losses.

    that is true as well...it's a game one has to play. I've had a few guys lose talent this year related to injury (CF Talltree), age (Head, Molina), filled out spec (Mutoh), and non-filled out specs (Zullo, Asai, Slayden). It happens to everyone and it is part of the game whether anyone likes it or not.

    It's only unfair when it happens to me.

    Lol, ever since I drafted Robert Cook, he can't decide if he's gaining talent or losing talent. He's done both half a dozen times this season. Wishy washy!

    My catchers, who I'm not even splitting against lefties and righties, are both doing great. Both Nearly .330 with 4/6 homeruns and 27/29 rbis.

    I need another power bat to replace Pelaez though.

    OM, if you thought Colorado was doing horrible before...don't look now, but they have a 14-game losing streak

    a great 9-3 sim from the looks of it but I see Tampa bay went 8-4 too so I only gained 1 game in the standings but took over a bigger lead in the Wild Race by 4 games

    I'm happy that I don't think my team will be involved in that race this year! I've now got about 5 rookies / first-full year players in my lineup and we're hitting the ball quite well.

    The pitching is still bad, but its not as bad as last year. I guess 70 wins will be my goal for the year. Hopefully 2-3 of my stud SP specs can get themselves developed before the start of next season, same goes for 2-3 of my MR specs.

    Joey Paniagua has gained more power!

    Sweet.

    Power increased from 6 to 8.

    Best pre-deadline moves I could have made.... Albano from AAA and Kinchen from the DL.
