I knew my salary cap wouldn't be able to withstand the large $ shillacking from Howard/Braund & Utley. I'm just waiting for all you big guys to start nominating rookies/prospects and japanese players!

I smell a run of elite pitching next nomination period! O:-)

Are you trying to get me to spend more money? You know I'm a sucker for a bargain! ;-7


Just thinking out loud... really hate to let Reynolds go at that. I traded CC for him and a draft pick in another league... :-?

Last year, through my research, Manny went for over 30+ in a lot of auction drafts.

Man, what estrogen will do to a man! ;)

Reynolds scares the hell out of me. Bidding on him is like playing roulette - he can make or break you. And how much can you enjoy watching a guy strike out 220 times. At least he got his numbers of errors way down - can you say DH? We should send a season-long supply of Rolaids to whoever gets him. Still, $25 for him seems a bit cheap (he says while not bidding). :-D

Might I say, Decent Price for Utley @ $38. Best 2B in the game, good luck there!

Thanks! For some reason I thought I had to wait until late tonight to see if I won him. Oh well.

I crossed him off my list when he hit $25.
