    Fantasy Thread Week 1

    In my first game (yesterday) my pitcher gets rocked and strains his abdomen and goes on 15 day DL and today half of my position players go 0/4 plus my one starting pitcher gets knocked out in 4.

    Happy with my first day results. Subbed out Winn (0-4) and put in Murton (3 for 5, HR, 3 runs, 2 rbis). Also, played Barmes (1 for 5, 1 run) over Lopez (1 for 4). Wish I played Kearns and Kotsay tonight, lost batting avg. there, but Granderson at least got a steal for me. Crawford sucked.

    Pitching was good. Only Peavy and Linebrink pitched, but 8 IP, 1 ER, 0.625 WHIP. And we only need 25 minimum innings per week, right?

    Props to Winston and imgv's teams today on offense, looks like both of those teams had huge offensive days. Also, good to see some of the guys I traded sucked or are injured (Hudson and Nomar )

    Looks like you subbed out the wrong LH pitcher today.

    Anybody know if the week ends on Saturday or Sunday? It says April 2 - April 9. I'm assuming that doesn't include the 9th for this week, i.e. the week is from Sunday to Saturday.

    imgv, I'd put in a starting 2B in your lineup. If you had put Mueller in today, your stats would've been even higher.

    That should be the rank , but it is not right because there is no results yet.

    Typically, weeks will run from Monday to Sunday, but with just one game on Sunday, they just tacked it on.

    Want to remind everyone about the Stat-Tracker service we all have access to. Click on the button near the top-right, and you'll have live scoring updates. Pretty neat, and the main reason we paid the $125 or so for the Plus League setup at Yahoo.

    Question about lineups: If we have somebody slated to start at a particular position and his team's game starts, but he ends up not playing in the game, are we allowed to put in a sub later in that starting spot or once he's locked in and his team's game starts, you get his stats even if he doesn't play?

    The stat tracker is great WB. It was a good addition to have for the league.

    Looks like my team bounced back today. IROD went 4-5 with 1 homerun and 5 rbi. Nice.

    Man, I screwed up today by not putting in McCann for Mauer (who isn't even in the lineup).

    Thank god my trade offer to Portland was vetoed. If that trade had gone through I would have handed the championship to the Hampsters before opening day!

    Apr 9 Ian Harrison, of DevilRays.MLB.com, reports Tampa Bay Devil Rays OF Carl Crawford said he is trying to pick his spots more this 2006 season when it comes to steals. Crawford said, "In the past I've always run just to be running. You want to be a smart runner, you don't want to be a guy who gets on and runs every time. I'd rather be safe 30 out of 30 times than have 50 bags and be caught 20 times."

    penetrate. Drafted him 3rd overall expecting 50+ SBs

    Plus, I was attacked by that hot Sheldon.

    I had a horrible first 3 days but made some adjustments and ended up 6-3 after being down 9-0 at one point. Got another tough opponent next week before I finnally get to play some of you other marshmellows.

    Chipper should make it back soon...I saw him go down...rolled around like a sissy socker player and then walked off on his own power. Looked like he got scared more than got hurt.

    Good job sucking out those 3 wins on Sunday. Jason Jennings & Vicente Padilla, what a fuucking joke.
