He is back in the lineup now. Should take a few games to get back into the swing of things but Nevin is always a lock.

I wouldn't drop him when his value is low, makes no sense.

Alright...I'm left in a mad scramble because of THIS recent news.

Jul. 17: Sexson's ailing hamstrings are hampering him so much that on Wednesday he was unable to leg out a single when Astros third baseman Jose Vizcaino bobbled his sharp groundball, picked it up in foul territory and made a looping throw to first. Mark Loretta replaced Sexson at first base to start the eighth.

Now, should I try to deal Sexson away, or stick with Christopher Reeve?

My Team looks like: C-Posada, 1b- Sexson 2b- Alomar, 3b- Zeile, SS- Rollins, OF's - Berkman, Walker, Ichiro, Util's- Cameron, and Tatis. With Casey, Guillen and Eric Young.

<font size = 3>EDIT-</font> Should I trade Sexson for Bagwell to completely dodge this bullet?

You wouldn't be able to get an upgrade for Sexton in return unless you dealt one of your other players in a package. You seem to be stacked up in the OF, perhaps you could use that as leverage to trade for a better first baseman.

Pick up Durazo

[Austin]

Alright, I just traded Sexson for Bagwell. I can't believe what suckers these people are.

[Galt]

Bagwell's been seriously injured all year and needs shoulder surgery at the end of the year. If Houston falls out of it, they might shut him down.

Reviving this thread, I guess, I have a question or two...

If you're the commish in a league, and a trade is accepted, and the trade is very one-sided against a team that is not doing well, and very beneficial for a team doing very well, and only one person complains, should you let the trade go if there's only one objection?

Another question - If you are a first year fantasy baseball player, and you're in first place in 5 out of 7 leagues, and second place in the other two leagues, and one of your second place teams really kinda sucks ass...would you be wise to join a phat money league the next year?

Leiter or Clement? Who would you rather have in a Yahoo league to finish the year?

Who gets the better of a Mo Vaughn for Vernon Wells deal?

Yes. Its up to the members of the league to stay on top of whats going on. If they don't speak up, its their loss. The league should be a democracy, not a dictatorship. One person, even if its the commisioner, should not have ultimate authority over a league especially when he also has a team in said league.

Another question - If you are a first year fantasy baseball player, and you're in first place in 5 out of 7 leagues, and second place in the other two leagues, and one of your second place teams really kinda sucks ass...would you be wise to join a phat money league the next year?

No, its called the peter principle. You shouldn't be too proud to be the head of a retard class. Then again, being in a money league forces you to stay more on top of things and therefore might increase your odds of winning.

Leiter or Clement? Who would you rather have in a Yahoo league to finish the year?

Leiter. Better track record. Grandpa Al wants to win a ring in New York already and the offense is starting to support the pitching alot more.
