Totte Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 But, remember, you need to homer on the first major league comeback game to be cool enough Worst case scenario in this case since we're talking about a converted pitcher...in his first at bat, he walks out from the on deck circle to the pitchers mound instead of the batters box :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totte Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Masterson is a RP/SP for the Red Sox. Hanrahan is the new Nationals closer. I think I left Buchholz of the Rockies as a starter to but he's their setup guy so RP/SP would do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peterosefan Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 I'm not trying to offend anybody here (I'm really not) but if you guys keep posting trades, demotions, promotions, ect. we're NEVER going to get a UR update this year !!! We're already 4 months into the season and haven't got one yet ! Let these guys (who have taken over the UR's from Totte) do their thing and get the first UR of the year out !!! THEN they can come out with update patches as needed ! THINK about it guys, PLEASE ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peterosefan Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 All they are doing is just trying to help and you come out and bash them. I'm not bashing ANYBODY !!! If you'll read the first sentence of my reply I said, I'm not trying to offend anybody ! All I'm saying is that we're 4 months into the season and we don't have a UR update yet. These guys are working hard to come out with one and everybody keeps posting all these trades, ect. further delaying the FIRST UR of the season !!! Like I said, let them do their thing and come out with a UR update and THEN they can add all these trades, promotions, demotions, ect. as update patches to the first UR of the season !

tyger Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 People can still post updates, it's not like anyone is saying these additions have to be in, the creaters just have to have a cut-off date from when they are going to have the rosters acurate from. I use the information here to update KGs rosters, it just makes for an easier way to get the information then making the UR people go find it themselves, and thus saves time and allows them to get the rosters out quicker.

DJEagles Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 I appreciate the updates, it actually cuts down on all the digging and researching I have to do. So please pay no attention to the fellow above, and update away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joseph_D Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 I do agree there should be a cut-off point, and that update patches could come out later, but I'm just glad that there's still somebody updating a three-plus year old game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totte Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Teixeira to the Angels for Kotchman and Marek. A little input on Marek: He was a 40th-round draft pick of the Angels in 2004. He was a starter in his first three pro seasons. But the Angels were using him in middle relief at Arkansas, where he was 2-6 with a 3.66 ERA and an impressive 57 strikeouts in 46 2/3 innings.

Totte Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Mets released RHP Juan Padilla. Padilla's velocity never returned after two elbow surgeries, and he struggled his way to a 9.64 ERA with a 8/5 K/BB ratio in 14 innings at Triple-A. He managed to sign on with York in the independent Atlantic League instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Totte Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 The Phillies have promoted AAA-pitcher J.A. Happ to the major league bullpen to add some depth for the stretch. He'll probably pitch out of LRP and make an occasional spot start. I'd put him at RP/SP with a stamina in the high 70's and have his pitch control set somewhere around 65.
