Subject: O2 Season 4 Posted by: Bean Dip - [86462118] Wed, Sep 06, 11:29 Well, the new schedules are out, and for me at least, that signals our transition into season four. Here is a list of gurupies in the league: Bean Dip (me)--Indians Eustacio--Red Sox Blue Hen--Rangers Sliced Bread--Giants The Great One--Braves Stick--Dodgers Josie--Padres Bearcat--Yankees js--Orioles Kevin--Cubs Scott--Royals Eric Freda--Cardinals Also, here is the obligatory link to Sliced Bread's O2 Page Thanks once more Sliced Bread for engineering and updating our leagues fantastic webpage. Good luck all in the upcoming season. Last year the Astros proved that turnover is most definitely possible when they broke up the playoff "alliance." It will be interesting to see if any of the remaining members get bounced this year. Also, Sliced Bread will have a shot to try and get back in and make up for last year. With Rangel and Mark Clark, he certainly has a potent pitching staff now. Bean Dip | ||||||
| 57 | Stick ID: 338451313 Fri, Sep 22, 07:12 | Yeah Eric, that was a strange game. None of my pitchers got a loss, I guess once you get to your fifth pitcher of the game, the sim loses track or something. Oh well. I am surprising still in first place with my less-than-solid team, I guess my pitching staff is keeping me in games. I know it won't be long before the Astros or Giants pass me, but I'll enjoy it while I'm here. | |||||
| 58 | The Great One ID: 145412810 Fri, Sep 22, 07:46 | No offense Stick, but I'm rooting against you. I don't want to play you in the playoffs. Since this league started, the Dodgers have always given me problems. Plus you beat me in our W2 league last year.....i don't want to get a complex :) | |||||
| 59 | Stick ID: 338451313 Fri, Sep 22, 08:41 | I'm flattered. Honestly, I don't think you have anything to worry about from my team. Good luck in our series tonight. | |||||
| 60 | blue hen ID: 534402321 Fri, Sep 22, 15:36 | I don't even know why you guys are trying... the World Series will be a cakewalk after I upset Bean Dip in the LCS. | |||||
| 61 | The Great One ID: 285352818 Fri, Sep 22, 18:09 | Don't sing it Blue Hen....bring it!!! | |||||
| 62 | blue hen ID: 504501720 Sat, Sep 23, 01:28 | I can sing or say or shout or yell whatever I want because I AM THAT DAMN GOOD!! | |||||
| 63 | The Great One ID: 285352818 Sat, Sep 23, 07:59 | We'll see how damn good you are when you go one on one with The Great One! | |||||
| 64 | Eustacio ID: 51729258 Sat, Sep 23, 12:41 | I almost feel sorry for the Mariners...Game 1: 6-2 I win. Game 2: 23-4 killing of the Mariners. Game 3: 16-2 Stomping. Game 4: Okay, they got 1 game from me. Bean Dip, my team is on a hitting spree and I'm coming to town for ya! | |||||
| 65 | Eustacio ID: 34443313 Sun, Sep 24, 21:39 | What goes around, comes around...ouch... | |||||
| 66 | Eric Freda ID: 397342118 Sun, Sep 24, 21:54 |
What a debut!! I just brought Kevin Tapani up this week for the last two weeks to test him out. In his first major league outing what does he do? He carries a no hitter into the 8th inning, gives up a single, gets the next guy to hit into a double play and retires the next batter. He leaves the game after 8 innings of one hit ball. He walked 3 and struck out 7. Not a bad first major league game, eh? On a side note, The Great One looks safe as he brings a 4 game lead into our 4 game series tomorrow as I could only split my four games with the Mets today. Not a bad effort by my rebuilding squad though. :) | |||||
| 67 | blue hen ID: 534402321 Sun, Sep 24, 23:00 |
Take that Royals! A "thrashing". And the new sim is definitely here. Glad I hung onto Ryan Thompson. He's a keeper. Dang, lost Danny Graves. Thought I could sneak it. He'll be missed this year, but I would have lost him anyway. | |||||
| 68 | The Great One ID: 285352818 Mon, Sep 25, 05:27 |
<---not saying a word until I win at least one game tonight :) The Great One | |||||
| 69 | blue hen ID: 534402321 Mon, Sep 25, 07:42 |
<--- saying these words: I didn't even realize I clinched like 8 weeks ago. Was there ever any doubt? | |||||
| 70 | The Great One ID: 145412810 Mon, Sep 25, 08:26 | I had no doubt BH....the next best team in your division is 8 games under .500. You've been a lock all year | |||||
| 71 | Eustacio ID: 34443313 Mon, Sep 25, 19:21 |
56-8 for the year...I'm in awe, Bean Dip. Good luck to anyone who tries to beat him this year in the playoffs, you'll need it! | |||||
| 72 | blue hen ID: 524241121 Mon, Sep 25, 19:59 |
I'm in awe as well, and I will also say that he's used skill to build this team, as well as luck, so he earned it. However, I split the season series with him and my guys are *itching* for revenge for last year... and the year before... and the year before that... | |||||
| 73 | The Great One ID: 285352818 Mon, Sep 25, 21:04 | Stick...congrats on the division title....you ready to rock? :) | |||||
| 74 | Scott - Royals ID: 36715121 Mon, Sep 25, 21:12 | Bean Dip , congrads , I am jealous. All I can say is that 2 seasons ago I was in last , last year , last again , but this year , 4th worst record. Thats right and I am just getting better so you better watch IT!!!!! I know I would win if I had Bergman. | |||||
| 75 | Stick ID: 41854716 Mon, Sep 25, 23:56 | Great year, Bean Dip. blue hen has his work cut out for him in these playoffs. Great One, thanks. Hopefully I can repeat my W2 miracle in this league, although I'm not counting on it. Your team is definitely better than mine, in almost every category. Good luck. | |||||
| 76 | The Great One ID: 145412810 Tue, Sep 26, 12:48 | Like I said Stick, I would much rather have played the Astros.....they are very one dimensional. They hit like crazy, but have no bullpen and commit a ton of errors cuz they have alot of guys out of position. You have a good well rounded team with no glaring weaknesses. It doesn't look like I'm gonna get a shot at revenge in W2 so I'm gonna try to get it here. And for me having a better team, I finished only one game ahead so it should be a good series. | |||||
| 77 | Dev ID: 348432717 Wed, Sep 27, 17:49 | I took over the Cubs. I will have to rebuild so it may take a while to get into contention but hopefully I will be up there soon. Good Luck in the playoffs. | |||||
| 78 | Scott - Royals ID: 36715121 Wed, Sep 27, 18:12 | I was just wondering on who everyone thinks is the best FA out there in our league. I have to say I will be making a big run at Ismael Reynoso to help out my very poor , poor lineup. I really sorry for my pitchers. Well just wondering on what you thought on that. | |||||
| 79 | The Great One ID: 285352818 Wed, Sep 27, 20:22 |
Welcome Dev. Good to have you here. Hope ya stick around Scott, no way in Hades I'm telling you who I like the best in free agency since I'll be bidding against you :P The Great One | |||||
| 80 | blue hen ID: 534402321 Wed, Sep 27, 20:45 |
Well, DUH, it's Brett Black... Welcome Dev... | |||||
| 81 | blue hen ID: 534402321 Thu, Sep 28, 01:13 | Nany nany boo boo stick you head in doo doo I beat Bean Dip I shut him out in game 2 only two more wins till vengeance nany nany boo boo. | |||||
| 82 | The Great One ID: 145412810 Thu, Sep 28, 06:58 |
Congrats on a great season Stick! The MVP of the NLCS was Scott Downs. 8 shutout innings, 1 hit, 1 walk and 6 k's | |||||
| 83 | Stick ID: 338451313 Thu, Sep 28, 07:13 |
So much for a great series. Well played, Great One, and good luck in the World Series. Welcome Dev, good luck with those Cubs. | |||||
| 84 | The Great One ID: 285352818 Thu, Sep 28, 21:25 | I'm starting to think we should just fast forward to the World Series every year...lol. Congrats Bean Dip...looking forward to our series. | |||||
| 85 | blue hen ID: 534402321 Thu, Sep 28, 21:36 | I tell ya... this was supposed to be my year. Terry Mathews was brought in to close out the Tribe in the LCS. Instead he chokes TWICE in game 6. | |||||
| 86 | Bean Dip ID: 24456316 Thu, Sep 28, 22:23 |
Well fought series blue hen. You gave me a solid run for my money. We now have filled both vacated spots in the league as Beastiemiked has officially taken over the Yanks. Welcome Beastiemiked and Dev, and good luck in turning around those two organizations. I think Eric Freda has gone a long way towards showing how much progress can be made on a truly awful team in a relatively short time. Bean Dip | |||||
| 87 | beastiemiked ID: 145191710 Thu, Sep 28, 22:28 | Just took over the Yanks. Boy do they need work. Probably take me at least 2 season to be in contention. | |||||
| 88 | beastiemiked ID: 145191710 Thu, Sep 28, 22:38 | Let's see, not 1 4-star average guy in the minors. Contention is at least 4-5 seasons away. | |||||
| 89 | sliced bread ID: 23846722 Thu, Sep 28, 23:58 | Can somebody please take down all the relevantstats for this past season for the webpage? My computer is down and I haven't been able to get on very often for awhile and I'm not sure when it will be fixed. Thanks. | |||||
| 90 | Eric Freda ID: 397342118 Fri, Sep 29, 23:52 | Welcome to Beastiemiked and Dev both. Good to have you aboard. On a side note..I think I can hear the Braves singing "Staying Alive" tonight..talk about losing two high scoring heartbreakers in games 2 and 3..ouch!! | |||||
| 91 | The Great One ID: 285352818 Sat, Sep 30, 10:47 | So much for BD and I having the two best pitching staffs in the league huh? The worst part is that Rob Nen beat me twice. I really really really hate him. | |||||
| 92 | Dev ID: 23934114 Sun, Oct 01, 14:34 | I am looking to trade Scott Hetteberg, Richard Hidalgo, Billy Hibbard, Jeff Urban, Jason Fitzgerald and Mickey Lopez. I am not asking much if you are interested e-mail me with an offer. | |||||
| 93 | The Great One ID: 285352818 Sun, Oct 01, 21:17 | Congrats on the threepeat BD....see ya again next year :) | |||||
| 94 | The Great One ID: 285352818 Sun, Oct 01, 21:17 | Congrats on the threepeat BD....see ya again next year :) | |||||
| 95 | Bean Dip ID: 24456316 Mon, Oct 02, 02:25 |
Thanks G.O. Thanks G.O. ;-) On different note, has anyone taken down the stats for sliced bread yet? I have been trying to find the time to do it, but i keep getting really busy. It is possible sliced bread got his computer back up and this point is completely moot. However, if he is still off-line, the stats will disappear soon so if no one has done anything yet, we need to get that done. I will try to do it tomorrow, but I really don't know how much time i will have, so it might not be bad if someone else took them down as well just in case. Bean Dip PS. Happy hunting to all this off-season. As always, anyone on my team is available for the "right offer," but as you could probably guess, it would take a pretty significant offer for me to give up a few of those guys. Nonetheless, if you see someone you really want and you think you can improve my organization in compensation, i would love to talk trade. | |||||
| 96 | The Great One ID: 285352818 Mon, Oct 02, 04:27 | No retirements and everybody re-signs....life is good. With my late season acquisitions from last year, this season's Braves should be the best team I've had yet. As I said in the e-mail, Valenti, Brower, and Myette are available, and it would probably just take prospects, as there is nothing I am looking for on the MLB team presently. | |||||
| 97 | blue hen ID: 534402321 Mon, Oct 02, 07:06 |
blah blah blah housecleaning. I sent a note to the league and several individual ones as well. I've got a lot of talent that can be yours, just ask for it. If not, I'll begin yet another cakewalk to the American League West title. See ya in the LCS, Bean Dip. | |||||
| 98 | Eric Freda ID: 397342118 Mon, Oct 02, 09:07 |
Erasmo Ramirez is my Rookie of the Year candidate. He led the national league in saves and posted a 2.84 ERA. What other rookies made big impacts this year? How about league MVP? Cy Young? I don't really have contenders for them. Raul Franco was my best overall guy being near the top in both homeruns and stolen bases. But my amazing infield combo of Cintron and Martinez certainly deserve some recognition as well. They both had outstanding years. | |||||
| 99 | The Great One ID: 145412810 Mon, Oct 02, 11:45 | Well Darryl Scott would be my best rookie but he wasn't as good as Ramirez. MVP candidate is Griffey, who led the world in homers and hit .370. | |||||
| 100 | Dev ID: 10927319 Tue, Oct 03, 19:27 | I am still willing to trade the guys I mentioned above. Hidalgo and Hatteberg are 400+,400+,400+ guys and Fitzgerald has a 460 AVG rating. Hibbard and Urban are good pitchers. The stats talk for themselves. These guys won't do me much good playing great unless they have a supporting cast. I am looking to trade these guys for minor leaguers. I will give them up very very cheap. E-mail my team if you are at all interested!! Good Luck with free agency and the upcoming season. | |||||
| 101 | blue hen ID: 34937217 Tue, Oct 03, 19:45 | Yeah, you bet Hibbard and Urban are good pitchers. See the Rangers awards thread... | |||||
| 102 | Dev ID: 10927319 Tue, Oct 03, 20:24 | Great Season Bean Dip. Your team is really stacked. | |||||
| 103 | The Great One ID: 145412810 Wed, Oct 04, 15:21 | I'm the man | |||||
| 104 | blue hen ID: 34937217 Wed, Oct 04, 17:20 | Um, no. I'm the man. | |||||
| 105 | The Great One ID: 285352818 Wed, Oct 04, 19:04 | Actually.....I am definitely the man | |||||
| 106 | blue hen ID: 534402321 Thu, Oct 05, 00:17 | No, I'm pretty sure I'm the man... | |||||
