Nice. :)

I refuse to believe this guy is a .170 11HR guy. Got an important series tonight, and he's coming off the bench and going to bat #3.

He does look like he should be doing better then .170, but he might just be one of those guys who continually disappoints... He wasn't super impressive in LL-5 and his K/BB ratio is surprisingly bad for someone with his Bat Control and Plate Discipline. On the plus side he's grown 6 SI this season, so maybe he is just a late bloomer. Good luck with him at the close of the season. Looks like you have some wiggle room to experiment a bit (jealous).

Hehe. I'm not experimenting. There is no wiggle room. My 15 game lead has dropped to 5 in a week and a half. I'm desperately trying to win games, but each loss is more demoralizing than the last.

Quinones did alright. 1/4 in game 1 with a HR that looked like it might mean something, but didn't. 0/3 with 2Ks in game 3. 0.170 as advertised. :)

This is insane, I rearranged my lineup slightly and all of a sudden I am 13-1 in my last 14 and 16-2 in my last 18. No additions or drops, just moving Reyna or Canales into the #1 spot and dropping Carr down to #6 along with a couple more slight changes.

Note: The lineup now is actually almost exactly how it was when I started the season and vastly underperformed. Random for the win!

Newt's heart of the order (vs right and left) is on fire!

I did absolutely nothing, the game engine was just screwing me over at the start of the season, and now is screwing over all my divisional opponents. The reality is my team never was as bad as they were playing earlier, and isn't as good as they were playing in the 22-2 stretch either. I hope to finish the season around .600 which will put me in the hunt for the title.

Same as me. Sometimes you just have to be patient with lady luck...

Update on my Quinones. Decided to to give him one more opportunity. Thought - why not - let's bat him and his 0.170 lead-off.

11/25, 5HRs since being moved to the lead-off spot. :). May have played his way into our play-off series, and back into next season's picture.
