I would like to introduce Tim Lewis as the new general manager of the Nike Ajax missiles formerly known as the Soda Spring Straws. Tim is familiar with strat but will need to get up to speed on the minor leaguers and our rule structure. He says he likes to do a lot of trading. Please don't tr...

The worst part about this job - fine time. Very low fine totals this year; thanks everybody. Some fines that would have otherwise existed have been waived either because of the PA snafu previously discussed or for other reasons (eg failure of road managers to follow specific usage instructions...

Doug has asked if KC can be moved to the FL so that he can be in the same league as his dad. Are there any volunteers in the FL to switch to the CL?

I thought this was a problem for many years. This year 5 relievers earned more points than Santana. I think the current formula over values era and undervalues quality innings pitched. my proposal will be to set the era for A calcualtions at 4.00 each year. this year it was 4.519 an...

Y.O.C.

All - With much regret, JR has resigned from the league. We thus need at least one new owner (and Eric has mentioned that he's ready to say goodbye to SOS also). And with trading season already in full swing, the sooner the better! Any recommendations very appreciated! Thanks, -...

Game 1 - Johnson vs Clemens In a classic matchup of pitchers SOS struck first with a M Giles single and a Klesko double. They would score two in the 2nd on hits from Kendall, Branyan, and Wilson. HAR would come back to tie it up in the 3rd with a Helton walk and hits from Pratt, Freel, and Ensb...

Petty has cured most of its deficiencies in middle infield by solidifying the 9th spot in the batting order with a guy who sports an incredible .610 ops. As a result, it is now looking primarily for pitching, despite having acquired the 7 awesome starts of Fausto Carmona. Petty ha...

Davenport sends Ronny Cedeno, Joe Borchard, and Fausto Carmona to Petty for Jon Rauch and Kevin Mench.

A few months ago people were kicking around the idea of limiting the number of unlimited players you could have on a roster, but I don't remember a consensus ever being reached. Is that still alive as a rules proposal for this year? Don't really have a preference just be nice to...

Y.O.C.

Rule Proposals are Due on Monday 10/9 To my knowledge, the only current rule proposal is mine regarding usage. I know that a rule proposal is being worked on for the A Player calculations. Please send in any rule proposals!

It has been brougth to my attention that Strat has been calculating the adjusted batter PA incorrectly, or at least inconsistantly with our Rules. The Rules say that a player gets 110% of total PA for use during a season. Unfortunately, when Strat does the the 10% adjustment, it ...

Harmony Grove sends Ron Belliard, Julio Lugo, and Tom Gordon to Jersey for Scott Kazmir and Deolis Guerra.

Well, I moved Hudson and Loretta but I still need more bats, so I am putting the following young pitchers on the block: Angel Guzman and Shaun Marcum. Guzman was a horror show in the majors this year but he did have 60 strikeouts in 56 innings and good AAA numbers (76 IP, 77 K, 24 BB, 5 HR, 4.04 ERA)....
