UM Fantasy Baseball League

I have a pretty good feeling Posada will not have as good a year and McCann isn't likely to be as good as his 06 season either. I don't know much about Martin but I don't see him being more valuable than myriad other players besides the fact that he's a catcher.

 

[Matt]

Martin is very good. Good hitter and good defensively

 

[seedofvengeance]

Yeah, Pudge Rodriguez always has a solid year, too.

 

[Matt]

Posada might have a down year, as he has the pressure of big contract on his shoulders

 

[seedofvengeance]

He's also protected by hall of famers in every other spot of the batting order, though.

He's also getting up there in years.

He actually had a really good year in '07, but no one seemed to notice because of some other guy on the team doing really well or something. Some infielder. But, yeah, as seedofvengeance said, having a lineup where everyone can contribute, it takes the pressure off just about everyone. Except for that one guy.

I hope each one of the Molina brothers has a bunch of kids, then the league would be just flooded with pretty-good catchers.

 

[seedofvengeance]

Fat and slow catchers.

 

[ThisIsACoolName]

Yeah but those fuckers can throw.

I wouldn't count on it. Have you seen Bengie Molina?

Also I am first in my fantasy league! Sure there have only been two games played but this is a good omen

 

[seedofvengeance]

He hits clean up for the Giants this year.

 

[cookiecutter]

That's pretty sad. At least they get to go to Coors fairly regularly

 

[Matt]

He hits clean up for the Giants this year.

 

[seedofvengeance]

There's no steroids debate about your cleanup hitter this year.

 

[Nikki]

seriously,it's 10:03 here and I went to see what was going on wth the draft, and I find nothing,ha.

 

[Zephyrus]

I'm afraid I'll be missing the draft today. I'm seeing the MythBusters give a lecture on campus this afternoon.

 

[cookiecutter]

Drafting in 20 minutes. Get in here people!

 

[ThisIsACoolName]

Oops.

 

[cookiecutter]

Don't worry. You had a really good draft

Hmm, not a bad lineup.
