Not sure if you remember Hardball Dynasty – Fantasy Baseball Sim Games - Player Profile: Bonk Daniels. He's now a Whinier Bytch.

Any well wishes you'd like to send him on his way to his 2nd championship ring?

Of course I remember the Bonker.   200 inning horse for the Pit Boss.  I believe I got him from e-ebb.

death usually gives men money in $10-$20 increments.  Late and on a street corner.

Good memory. The deal was for Hardball Dynasty – Fantasy Baseball Sim Games - Player Profile: Joshua Davis and Hardball Dynasty – Fantasy Baseball Sim Games - Player Profile: Graeme Mullens.

Did he say "uhn!" when you bent him over, or did he just look at himself in the mirror?

I've been in a season long MLB "runs scored" pool here in the office with 29 other people.  You get a different team every week.

As of this morning, I have a 2 run lead over the person in second place.  Nobody else is within reach.  The last games of the season are on Wednesday, so we have three games left.

I've got the Padres (home against the Cubs).  The other person has the Red Sox (on the road against the Orioles).

Can the Padres hold onto my two run lead for the next three days?

Both of those guys had decent careers.  Davis was pretty effective in his prime.  I needed Daniels to eat some innings because when I joined HJ, there was no pitching available.  So I built a staff around 25/55 DUR/STM pitchers.   There were times when I had to carry 14 pitchers just to avoid fatigue.    But, yeah, I went "UNNNHHH!!!" after the deal.

No.  The Padres can't score.   The Sux can still score, they just can't stop anyone else from doing the same thing.

Yes, promote them when the regular season is over.

I remember way back you were looking at the ideal time to do promotions for your players.  My general feeling is to do so mid season, every season.  Did you ever find an ideal time to do promotions, was it at the end of the regular season, or did mid-season promotions seem to help more? I am sort of doing it like RL but I know RL is not always the best for HBD.

Subquestion: Do you still release your "roster fillers" before the end of the season to not burn your initial payroll on them the next season?

I generally do a few at the A/S break and a few more after roster expansion.   Not sure if that's "ideal" but that usually works pretty well with my "400 PA per level" schedule. 

No, I do not.  Not sure I ever did that.

You were rather verbose.

My Whinier Bytches just moved to 74-44.

Is there something wrong with the engine?

Evidently.  Or you're in a 'tard world.

Do you know what the difference is between an Irish funeral and an Irish wedding?
