    actually I should edit that, I never actually played against him, he is a couple years younger then me, but he did play against my school, and I knew who he was, he played our freshmen team and completely killed them single handedly. and my school won state like 7 out of 8 years and DeWitt was a man among boys

    Most major leaguers are men amongst boys until they hit that spot in their development where it's all men and then you find out what they're made of.

    So was Ryan Howard and Max Shrezer. Beasts, absoulte beasts in comparision to everyone else on the field. A scout doesn't need to look hard to find these guys

    Wang has thrown over 40 pitches in the first inning at Tampa. Down 4-0 after one.

    I started DeRosa over Hudson in a Yahoo roto league (not the Sports Mogul league) today. I also had dropped him (Hudson) before the game to pick up Travis Hafner.

    I trust the drop/add will pay off in the end, but it's pretty ugly today, especially as DEROSA IS NOT STARTING and O-DOG HIT FOR THE CYCLE.

    When do you have to have your roster finished by? I haven't played the Yahoo leagues in a couple of seasons, but can't you view the lineups to ensure they're starting? Although I suppose a last-minute change IRL would mess up your lineup.

    You can change players around until up to 5 minutes before their game starts, I think.
