Looking quickly over your roster, your catcher has barely played at all in the majors, and your first baseman just a little bit more than him. Abreu, Dunn, Floyd, and Hafner are good young players who can hit the long ball though. Some good pitchers, a pity that your number one is on the disabled list right now.

early days yet, it's a marathon, not a sprint (least, that's what I've been told by some Red Sox fans..... :evil4: )

Good for you lowlifes with Nick Johnson hitting a key three-run homer, but damn was that ugly to watch the Mets blow this game tonight. I need a drink. :lol:

Very well........I hope. Have to admit that I really wanted David Wright on my team, dunno who I would've chosen if I'd had first pick.

As a die hard Met fan it was hard not to pick him. But at the number 2 spot I think Pujols is impossible to pass up.

Just wondering, how does the point system work?

Seeing as how PC&L is a Rotisserie League, I found this tonight.

SCORING

On the front page of the league, click on the Full Standings link for a total league breakdown of who's doing well. I'm dead last in ERA because of the horrific starts from Joe Lieber and Andy Pettite, and that's dragging me down in the standings.

Aha, I wasn't familiar with your team name, so I wasn't sure who picked him. Truth be told, I would've done the same thing had I gone second. Great to see another Mets fan, that makes three of us here.

It appears so.

Nice bit of hitting by David Wright again, and great "defense" by the Marlins right-fielder. :beer:

I'm seriously not doing well in this... :(

I am affraid to trade players that are underachieving while they should do a lot better later.

I was top of the table for a bit and seemed to be doing quite well, but that seems to have ended now - I may have to actually do somehting, rather than hope a liassez-faire attitude will see the mighty Puffins to victory... Now if I only knew what it was all about....

I know your busy Nick, but it doesn't help when you've got a guy on the disabled list still in your starting line-up (Griffey).

While your at it, Paul Konerko is next to worthless......better get rid of him.............to me..... :evil4:

Good to see The Pathetic Puffins making a comeback... Although having done bugger all to change anything, I'm not sure how...
