      Thu, May 22, 2003, 22:09 		I'm gonna go against my normal thing and hold Dreifort through Coors. For his price he has been great and I know I'll just want him again. I'll just hope for anything on the positive side.

Why have I just kept ignoring Vernon Wells????

      Fri, May 23, 2003, 03:03 		I'm holding Dreifort every team I have him, too. It may blow up in my face, but I'm trying to bank trades, and any $$ losses will not be that great as to warrant 2 trades to get out and back in.

Was gonna go Jeter-->Pujols tonite, but realized I already had him. Then I decided to go to Glaus. I guess I'm on a 3B kick.

Held Giles b/c of no trades on this team, and am keeping him as he scored 25 tonite.

This team's revitalization is due in large part to Gagne. Current staff is:

Smoltz
Gagne
Loaiza
Biddle
Dreifort

The plan is to rotate out of Loaiza after his Saturday start to a top pitcher.

I currently have $11 mill + in the bank on this team. I noticed the same thing on a couple other of my teams, too. Am I the only one with the excess of unspent cash? I've been working on transitioning some $$ from hitters to pitchers, so that's where it's come from.

I'm up over 2000 spots in the last week. I moved up in WWR every day since 5/16, and managed to move up 3 spots in the division to boot.

OK, my brag time is over now... I just needed a little self-congratulation :-)

      Fri, May 23, 2003, 09:54 		I'm keeping Dreifort because I can't find anyone else for the price. Don't want to move a hitter just to free up cash.

Fingers crossed for @COL.

      Fri, May 23, 2003, 11:58 		I kept Prior through his start at Coors and was certainly rewarded but Dreifort is still so erratic. With excess PTs, I decided to drop him even though I plan to pick him up again immediately after.

      Fri, May 23, 2003, 12:08 		I ended up ditching Dreifort on teams where I had excess PT's (5+). This team did not qualify. I'm hoping my recent success will carry over enough to cover a Coors start.

      Sat, May 24, 2003, 03:28 		Kendall/Pujols/Rolen/Byrnes: 160 points
Rest of the team: -1 points

However, even w/ no pitchers going, I move up 172 spots to position 9849!!! Even the butt of the patrons are starting an upward push as we now have 42 members in 4 digit territory.

Watch out up top! And J: I'm only 101 points behind you. Fear me. ;) Of course you have 3 guys going to just my Loaiza, so unless they bomb, you should open up more of a gap. I don't think I'm gonna end up picking up a starter for Saturday w/ only 3 PT's at the moment.

      Mon, May 26, 2003, 03:21 		Wow, what a day!

451 points is my highest on any team all season by far. Thanks go to:
Brown/Hudson/Smoltz/Biddle
Giles/Rolen/Everett/Glaus

My worst hitter of the day: Pooholes... go figure!

I jumped 1600 in WWR. Good stuff. Now to bank some trades again.

      Thu, May 29, 2003, 07:28 		Ok I'm the genius who actually picked up Dreifort for his start last night. Those that held I understand.
That was a major hurt, I thought he could at least get positive points and I had Webb who was hurt and missing his next start and I wanted DD after.
Sometimes it hurts to roll the dice

      Mon, Jun 09, 2003, 11:28 		J-- Very nice run. Don't forget your buds from the bottom!

I feel like my hitters are holding me steady now, and my pitchers, when they go, give me a boost. Had 256 yesterday with no starting pitchers and only 2 closers on the staff (only 1 pitched yesterday). I still don't have this down perfectly, but this team isn't my best one, either, which is encouraging, too.

      Mon, Jun 09, 2003, 23:29 		thanks Chuck, I've been getting real lucky with all my moves.

My last 12 pitcher starts have avg'd 96.5pts a start! With the worst being Tim Hudson's 69 on May 25. Since then I have been getting great starts from KB, Loaiza and whoever I happen to have at the time in the other start. Gagne & Smoltz are must-haves, in my opinion. Then my hitters have been carrying me. Its also nice to have more money than everyone else :)

      Tue, Jun 10, 2003, 00:07 		Been thinking about that Dontrelle Willis train but I really like my starters now (Smoltz, GAgne, Williams, Brown, Schmidt) and the ability to use the PTs for matchups rather than making money. Less RV this season but better results.
