Do I only see ONE lefty on your team Baines? And said lefty on your bench? Be very glad it's right down the middle instead of outside pitches...
That being said, good pop from the starting lineup...

I just noticed that. I've never really paid alot of attention to L/R handedness but I would have liked to mix it up a little more with the starters. It should help with 3 coming off the bench though. But yeah, I definitely like the power in this lineup. I was off to a good start with speed too from Davis, Baylor and Burks but it went downhill from there.
And G, we are playing movement on the mound is allowed. There is just no left/right pushing during the pitch.
Who is Baines' lefty? Brett hits from the right side.
They're all on the bench, and there's actually three of them: Bass, Mookie, Dykstra.

Shit, that would have been good to know during the draft...
We went over it at great length, Gantry the Pantry. Maybe you were too busy misspelling Barrett, Trammell, and Darrell and my other brother Darrell.

Your round 16 pick (Franco) is batting 3rd? That's quite odd...

My guess is that he will never play. Note that Mattingly is on the bench (and Joe is a Yankees fan, so it's not like he's actually going to bench him) - my guess is that Joe will have Mattingly PH for Franco the first time through the lineup, getting the 64-point power boost that first time up. Frankly, I'm surprised more of you didn't think of this.

I posted my surprise at this, and then jumped in the shower and I realized what he was going to do. Pretty filthy, JoeD. Smart move.

No doubt that I missed it... Would have definitely took a flyer on more lefties then, but it's my own fault that I cannot read...
I gotta say I'm very excited about this league, so much so that I'm at work right now building a new online server. Brand new Dell Poweredge with plenty of processor and RAM. If this doesn't help lag, the we know for sure the T1 line is at fault...

This just made my weekend! Put it on the board..............yes! I don't care for the White Sox announcers, but this immediately came to my head after reading Gantry's post.

What can I say? Once a cheater, always a cheater. I'm doing "the move" with Cruz/Mitchell, too.
We're still missing two line ups. Let's go, people. The ROM can't be made without 'em.
How are we doing this season? Schedules, divisions, etc?
I move for a weekly schedule with no dates. The teams have the week to complete games scheduled for that week. It'd also be a big plus (as far as ease of schedule completion goes) to allow for games of any given week to be played out of order.
For example, say I am scheduled to play Gantry, Ryno, and Lips in week one. I just need to get with those three anytime that week and complete the games...whenever we can get ir done.

How is it possible that somebody with such love and devotion to the game of RBI can see a bench of Bass, Mookie, and Dykstra and count that as one lefty? Let's go people, pay attention.

There is an insane amount of posts with the phrase, "let's go, people!" in them.
You were the first to follow those directions, if I remember correctly.
JoePussy soon followed.
prove it, fatty
Gantry...can you call Lips and get his line up (and post it) so we can get the ROM made?
Or fuck it...Lips is on!
I can't wait to slaughter in you our first game, JoeDirt...

Don't see how you can, with Lombardozzi on the bench and all.
I can assemble ROM right now, since dickhead Ryno won't respond to my email about playing a practice straight pitch game.
you about 20 minutes too late.
the boy has awoken from his nap.
Lips...building rom now. What exactly does this mean: Uniform/Helmet: 22/10?

How are we doing this season? Schedules, divisions, etc?
I would like to set it up like the following:
I will come up with a weekly schedule and send out Monday morning.
For example, for week 1 joedirt vs Baines, ryno vs Gantry, lips vs noah, and stock vs Nails.
That means, each of these matchups will have 1 week to get together for a 3 game series. It when finished, it will be their responsibility to record 1. Score, 2. Innings, and 3. homerun hitters for each game.
If all series get done (say in 4 days), we can dive right into the next week, and so on.
After 7 weeks, top 4 will advance to the playoffs. 1st round will be a best of 5 series, and finals will be a best of 7 series.
Details such as playoff seeding and tie breaker rules to follow.....
Don't want to make this more complicated than it has to be.
I will get back on Monday. I'm hosting a Superbowl party today, so won't be back 'till morning.
I like that solution quite a bit.
Also, I'm assuming we use all pitchers, correct? Just to clarify...
Works for me.
Joe just to let you know my schedule I'm pretty much around most evenings after 7 or all day Tuesday but most Thursdays suck.
I may need someone to work with me the first time getting it set up to play online because I haven't done it yet.

Sounds good to me.
Stock or JoeD,
When should I request a lineup change? End of this week when all games are completed?
You've already played your game this week, so you can give me your new line-up whenever.
I will not be able to post it until I get home from work tonite though.
The most recently updated ROMs will ALWAYS be posted in the "Str8 Pitch League Consolidated Details" thread. I will always modify it so they are in the first post.
I'd like to replace the Hoggs with FA1 or FA2. Either one will be fine.
Cool. Thanks, Stock. I'll let you know. I'm in no rush.

I deserve the likes of Rafael Santana and Al Pedrique.

Dykstra
Both ROMs are updated on consolodated thread with Baines' line-up changes.
Sullivan has been released from my roster.
In the interest of getting a lefty on my bench, Sullivan has been released, and Larkin has been picked up from the Free Agent list.
Dee-Nee!!
Was Sullivan devistated by the move?
How is he to feed his family?
Did you even consider this when you made such a cold, heartless move?
The local 7-11 is always hiring.
He also got mugged on his way to the team bus. He did not even see it coming as his head was hanging low after adding his 4th of 4 pinch hit ground outs after the series with Lips.
During the mugging he was hit in his left knee with a 2X4 ruducing his speed rating from a blazing 118 to 112.
In a press conference he mentioned that he hopes to make a full recovery, and is confident some team will pick him up looking for some more power on their bench. He also mentioned the possibility of going to Japan to play baseball so he could hit 90 home runs per season, and build his confidence for the next RBI season.
Sullivan, male gigilo
Sullivan, Krukow, and Worrell: Male Escort Service, Inc
Was surprised to see Krukow on the Free Agent list after serveral dee-nee'ers voted him the best pitcher on the game in a poll a few weeks ago.

He's good, but he's no 'nando.
I was actually pretty close to picking Krukow up and dropping Tudor after 2 bad outings. But I decided to give Tudor another chance.
I think Krukow would be better in curve than straight pitch. But since knuckle balls are allowed, he can dominate.
Krukow's problem is that his speed variation is not so good.
'nando combats this by being left handed. I also think that nando throws the ball more outside than any pitcher.
