[Gabriel_Hurl]

let's see who ya have - you aren't getting that fella from the Braves though

[Gabriel_Hurl]

you have Hill there - who is playing out of his skin at the minute - he only had 6 HR's in 155 games last season - and has 4 in 19 games so far this year.

He won't keep it up though

[resdubwhite]

Papi for Pujols is unfair on you, as pujols is playing hurt.

Could anything else persuade, willing to go Wells plus duine eile to sweeten it.

I see you have Uribe wo was a star for the WS 2 years ago. Why is he ranked so low?

Odds   Team                   Comment                        
8/1    the helmets   Early leader with decent pitching staff                        
7/1    Res Dubs                   Most active manager so far, has lots of HR potential. Should go close to making play-offs                        
13/2    Father Joe's Dynamos   Needs a fit Figgins but off to a good start and has talent in most areas                        
8/1    Faithful Dodgers   Teixeira needs to start hitting the long ball.Some key players on the DL but should challenge                        
10/1    Springfield Isotopes   Solid looking midtable team                        
10/1    Slugger Squad 57   Has the best player in Baseball in Reyes but pitching could well let team down                        
13/2    Crossmaglen Hitmen   Strong all over, will be a contender                        
10/1    AZ Diamondbacks   Will need Pedro to come back healthy but should back play-offs                        
12/1    Howya now   Weak pitching but manager looking to upgrade, midtable could be finishing position                        
16/1    Big Apple Orchards   Potential but lack of early season waiver action could be sign of bad things to come                        
8/1    Ardboe Blue Jays   Looks very solid all round, table position is false and a contender for the title                        
20/1    Red Hand Hitters   Team has talent but question marks over a lot of players                        
50/1    Maynooth Padres   Liriano in team, big outsider, on a par with Kansas !                        
33/1    shitloadofdimes   Key players on DL but not without a chance

Surprisingly, no booing for alez in yankee stadium. Though they do call for bernie williams if anybody isn't batting well (stand up if you're at first base)
If that's a real book, I'll have 50 quid each way on all the 8/1s
Thanks

[Jack Dempsey]

I dont think there is a bookie in the world who would price this up. Well not yet anyway. Someone here could have 2 teams and others could be very good mates. ( now im not suggesting anything but... ) But maybe after the allstar break I will price it for real. Likewise the non-triers should be more obvious and i'll be able to price a book leaving out all the deadwood.

Watching Yankees game Chin Ming Wang is perfect through 7 innings!! No hitter is on! they lead 6 0

[Carmen Stateside]

Home run Seattle

[Gabriel_Hurl]

The Yankees have pushed the panic button big-time.

Bringing Clemens back again for half a season at $28 million. Its a joke

Can't blame them with the amount of injuries their pitchers have had.

Finally some good luck for my pitchers. I gambled picking Clemens, not knowing if he would pitch at all this season. I picked up Phil Hughes on waivers and he got injured 2/3 of the way through a no hitter.

[resdubwhite]

Jesus.

28 million is a lot of money.

By the looks of things, he's going to have to carry the pitchers of the yanks for a couple of months.

Genuine surprise in new england that he's going to NY.
They appeared to think the deal was done.
That would have been some pitching line up.
Schill, Beckett (6-0) already, dice-k, Wake and the rocket, but it wasn't to be.

[heganboy]

In fairness the rocket will ease a lot of the worries at yankee stadium, they needed another dependable pitcher- right now Wang is it. Yanks will start their 6th rookie pitcher this year tonight, Mariano has been wobbly for the first time in years. $18m for the rest of the season- not bad money if you can get it...

My guys beginning to heat up now led by David Wright. About time.
Anyone any view on the outright World Series at this stage of the season. Yankees finished allready

[Gabriel_Hurl]

Tied for last place in the AL East
