Nice updates Vikes.

 

[chazmaniandevil]

howd you get young again?

 

[Mit]

Nice updates Vikes.

Thanks a lot man.

That rotation looks sooooo good right now.

I agree. Everyone except Linecum has a pretty good ERA. If Sadler keeps his luck up, I might keep him in the majors when Jonathan Sanchez gets back.

howd you get young again?

I traded Randy Johnson, Fred Lewis, and Henry Sosa to the Twins for Delmon Young and Morgan Ensberg.

Overachievers

1. RF Jonny Gomes - Cincinnati Reds
Who would've known that Jonny Gomes would be 5h in the NL in batting average considering he's had a history of hitting problems. Gomes is a key part of that Reds offense, as he has led the Reds to first place in the NL Central with a record of 21-14.
Statistics: .350 BA (5th in NL), 11 HR (1st in NL), 27 RBI (2nd in NL)
Fantasy Stock: --

2. SP Matt Cain - San Francisco Giants
Matt Cain has been absolutely fantastic so far in this very young season. His powerful pitching has allowed the Giants to maintain first in the NL West. The past two seasons, Cain has had twice as many losses (30) as wins (15). So far, he is 7-0, and this looks to be a breakout season for the 24-year-old right-hander.
Statistics: 7 Wins (1st in MLB), 0.83 ERA (1st in MLB), 66 K (1st in MLB)
Fantasy Stock:

3. SP Ian Snell - Pittsburgh Pirates
Ian Snell has been nothing short of outstanding this year. Although the Pirates haven't played well this season, Snell has. Snell has been nearly unhittable, as batters have a .153 average against him. His changeup has been filthy this year, which is a big reason why he has 40 strikeouts in 51 innings pitched.
Statistics: 1.75 ERA (5th in NL), .153 Opp. BA (1st in MLB), 51.1 IP (9th in NL)
Fantasy Stock:

Underachievers

1. SS Jose Reyes - New York Mets
Jose Reyes was supposed to be THE lead-off guy for the New York Mets. He has been anything but that. He has been absolutely terrible this season. He was supposed to hit about .275 in that powerful Mets lineup, but he's hitting about 100 points lower than that. This is pretty early in the season, so Reyes should be able to overcome this hitting dilemma and possibly catch fire later on in the season.
Statistics: .176 BA, 2 HR, 8 RBI, .253 OBP, .296 SLG %
Fantasy Stock:

2. SS Jimmy Rollins - Philadelphia Phillies
The 2006 NL MVP, Jimmy Rollins, has had as much as success as Jose Reyes of the New York Mets. Jimmy Rollins's batting average has dipped below .200 and he is striking out ever-so often. Rollins was supposed to be a homerun threat at the top of the order, but he has only hit 2 out of the park, which is a surprise.
Statistics: .195 BA, 2 HR, 11 RBI, 2 Errors
Fantasy Stock:

3. SP Jon Lester - Boston Red Sox
A year after winning 16 games, Jon Lester was supposed to be one of three aces on the Red Sox pitching staff. He has not been an ace this year. He has had trouble hitting his spots. He has given up 50 hits so far, along with 12 home runs in only 44 innings of work. A short stint in AAA could boost his confidence. I think that's what he needs. He's been hit around pretty hard this year.
Statistics: 2-6, 6.14 ERA, .294 Opp. BA, 1.36 WHIP, 10.23 H/9

[T.Dot]

Nice idea

 

[chazmaniandevil]

is there anywhere to DL this game?

 

[Rylo]

Shit looks good as usual man.

Nice piece up there.

 

[Mit]

love the fantasy idea

Thanks a lot man.

very creative idea, nice work vikes.

Thanks man. The idea just hit me. Maybe cause I was looking at fantasy baseball at the time.

Nice idea

Gracias.

 

[Mit]

is there anywhere to DL this game?

I highly doubt that any torrent site has it. Your best bet is ebay (for PC version), but that'll be pretty expensive.

Shit looks good as usual man.

Nice piece up there.

Thanks a lot man. Good to see that you are following. .

That hurts. Reyes' stock down

Haha. He hasn't been playing well at all. I wanna see if this terrible hitting continues for Reyes. If it does, I might try and get either him or Rollins. This is just a "maybe", though.

this shit looks nice. keep up the work Vikes

Thanks a lot, bro.

[Mit]

Good luck
They have Byrd too!!!!!

I know. I don't know why they signed him. Maybe because he's a vet? I dunno. They got Carrasco, Carpenter, Kendrick, and Moyer in the 'pen. Geez.
