7/28/2010 8:42 AM
yeah, I did the blind squirrel last minute and that took up my summer fun fund
7/28/2010 8:49 AM
I will budget for it for next year along with the squirrel
7/28/2010 8:49 AM
imma gonna hold you to that
7/28/2010 8:51 AM
oh, trust me...I'll be there!
7/28/2010 8:52 AM
made a deal in KP. My rotation will be sick this year. And I think I have adequate replacements for Rauch in my organization.
7/28/2010 8:53 AM
rlahann 7/25/2010 8:38 PM Think of him just as cash...as in you giving me an extra 2.8...it's a one year deal he's on. Alternatively, we can wait until your guy's pro-rated drops below 5 million.
bret2775 7/25/2010 8:29 PM Ok- I like the P, not a fan of Earl Ward though. If there is some way to work around him then we've got a deal.
rlahann 7/24/2010 7:45 PM Sorry...and cool. But the deal is, I can't waive him until we have a handshake deal in place...
bret2775 7/24/2010 7:37 PM heh, no reason to get your panties in a bunch
rlahann 7/24/2010 3:24 PM Although someone might claim him before you...can't trade him to you because of no-trade clause.
rlahann 7/24/2010 3:23 PM that's the damn point, bret2775. The dude you'd claim would allow it to go through... Earl Ward ...a one year contract.
bret2775 7/24/2010 2:46 PM who's the player? And this deal will as it stand would not go through b/c of your budget
rlahann 7/24/2010 8:53 AM You've got a trade prop...but to make it work, you'd need to claim one of my players off of waivers...we'll deal with that when we come to it. Dude seems too old to help your franchise...thought you might want to get younger...
7/28/2010 8:55 AM
rlahann 7/26/2010 7:40 PM wtf?
bret2775 7/26/2010 11:04 AM Cool!
rlahann 7/26/2010 9:30 AM OK, I got the cash. I'll propose it tonight...no Ward involved.
rlahann 7/25/2010 9:10 PM screw it, I'm keeping Ward. I'm getting cash other ways...unless you want Hal Alexander for 2.75 million....

Seems that I trade the most in hbd with cbriese and surprisingly robusk.... although I've traded twice with nellie in very few seasons so he has a pretty high trade per season ratio with me.
Not surprising.  I prey on the weak.
yeah - like that bing wells deal that got me a WS ring.  still the biggest rape I've pulled off in HBD.
Wouldn't rape imply that I got screwed dumbass?  I turned the main piece I got from you into that deal into a great SS and an SP I like better than Bing.

I just looked back on that deal... 

Looks like tarrick walker batted .236 for you before leaving in FA next season (probably a type B):

Regular Season Batting Stats
Season Fran Level G AB R H 2B 3B HR RBI BB SO SB CS AVG OBP SLG OPS
10 PIT ML 136 538 66 127 36 3 20 95 56 105 0 0 .236 .311 .426 .737

galloway never made it out of the minors before you dealt him, and Coco pitched 40 innings in Pit with a 4.50 ERA before you traded him next season.  

Meanwhile - I got bing wells (season 10 was my WS) and Brain Moore has pitched little in relief but has been a 3.00 ERA none the less over the last 3 seasons.

Tarrick did not have a great season for me, but he held it down and I got a pick or two out of him.  Flipping Galloway was the key.

Team defense should not be that difficult to figure out. It's something like (plus plays - (minus plays + errors)) + ((CS% - .250) * SBA). This makes the assumption that a .250 CS% is average. The problem with the formula, though, is that sometimes a play is scored as both a minus play and an error. Or my personal favorite, the +- play.

I will disagree that babypop that DPs mean anything in HBD. I have been unable to find a correlation between any defensive rating and DPs. DPs fluctuate wildly between seasons (much like BABIP for pitchers), even with the same infield and same pitching staff.
This is why I say everything I know about defense I learned from cbriese.

well heck, I could've done that yesterday.
