Here's one to top that:

(3 weeks. I think he broke his old record.)
I bet if they gave him 15 more he wouldn't have any left before the break. lol

I really do not understand that. Even if he had exactly the guys he wants now, there are going to be injuries during the year. As you said, he might as well have burned that $380.
On a brighter note, Napoli is having a huge night for you. I checked the overall standings in the rookie leagues a few minutes ago, and we now have two guys on the "first leader board" (top 25)....Orioles Magic was #23 & Punch n Judy was #25....and you are heading toward the first leader board, in the 30s now.
I can explain that: Simmons & Heyward haven't been doing squat.
I'll tell ya what I hate....pitchers who walk batters. Kershaw had two outs with nobody on base tonight with a 1-0 lead. He walked two straight batters...and then gave up two hits. Both guys who walked scored. Kershaw pitched tonight like he did 3 or 4 years ago....going deep in all the counts, walking guys, and throwing 111 pitches in only 5 innings. He's got the stuff. Why does he play around with hitters like that? It's maddening.
Wainwright walked his first batter of the year in 37 innings tonight (Harper). He has 37 strikeouts. Scherzer has 30 strikeouts and only 4 walks.
I'm thankful that I have Wainwright, but I wish that I had Scherzer (1050K), Darvish (1000K) & Miller (640K) instead of three of my higher-priced SPs.
(And one more thing about Harper. I know he's young & cocky....but that kid can flat-out play!)
What kind of an idiot takes the hottest hitter in the game out of his lineup right before he goes to Coors Field? Justin Upton is only 5 for 10 with two homeruns, three RBIs & four runs scored so far this week. My managing so far this year has been embarassingly bad.....as reflected by my teams' current standing of 106th & 100th overall. As Roberto de Vincenzo would say: "What a stupid I am!"
Lester not having a great day. What a disaster it would be if Harvey gets bombed tonight. It is a pitchers night with game time temp around 58%. This will be the first time that I have watched him.
His stuff is electric.....helped me decide to pick him up even though he was facing Washington last week.
This doesn't have anything to do with anything....but didn't he pitch for the Tar Heels?

Completely off topic....but I needed to mention it:
A true legend died today. George Jones was, to me at least, the greatest country music singer of all time...and one of the greatest singers of any kind for all time.
His anthem song "He Stopped Loving Her Today" has, sadly, finally come to pass. Now he & Tammy are "Together Again". Rest in peace, Possum. Millions of fans will miss you.

I cover a wide area in musical interests. I mean...I've been to a Cinderella concert, for heaven's sakes. Pink Floyd is probably my favorite group, if I had to pick only one (well, next to Bruce & the E-Street Band, but that kind of goes without saying)....but I loved George Jones. (I've also been to a George Jones/Merle Haggard concert, too.)
Wonder how many people have been to both a Cinderella concert and a George Jones concert?
If Ted Nugent was on fire, I wouldn't piss on him to put it out.
Sorry for getting political there, but I couldn't let that son of a bitch Ted Nugent slide. What a sorry bastard he is:
