I'm sorry real baseball interfers with fantasy baseball like that, Aroid deserves it for one and two I would like to see fieldings stats included in more leagues
My main league uses home run-saving catches as a category.
You really need to get fist pumps in there, if you want any sense of legitimacy in your league.
We talked about adding fist pumps or CEQ, but we didn't want to risk the integrity of the league. We're going into the 9th year of the league. It's a points-based two-cat scoring system: home run-saving catches and strike-'em-out-throw-'em-out double plays.
Padres Fan wrote:I hate other owners who bombard with the same trade request you keep denying, i.e. one guy states that beacause I am a Padres Fan and own Adrian Gonzalez and Heath Bell, I need to trade them both to him for James Loney/Ryan Franklin and even stated that I am not interested, but he has offered that trade scenerio 8 times the last 3 weeks.
The way Gonzo is playing, you might want to resurrect those trade talks.
He should rebound in the second half and still post 35-40 hrs
He might if the Padres leave anyone on the team for him to play with. Hard to hit homers when the pitcher is throwing an intentional walk. There's really no reason at all for anyone to pitch to A-Gon.

No, all he needs is his BABIP to return to a reasonable level. He's gone on a wildly unlucky streak. It appears he's bottomed out and is on his way back, though, so owners shouldn't be worried.

You should consider adding balks for pitchers. Not as a negative, but as a positive. Mike Pelfrey becomes a 1st Rounder. In fact, the entire Mets pitching staff goes real early then.

And if you add "Inability to hold a lead" , just draft the Mets bullpen and sit back - your job is done here.

Y'know, this stuff makes coming here a pleasure. Thanks!
