Beaner Pride
As far as the projections go, all I can say is thanks for the Bulletin Board material. Now that my players are over the shock they'll be more motivated than ever, starting already with Nady's 2 for 4 with an SB this afternoon.
Players of the Week: Week 2
Hitters:
HOW (Hitters of the Week): Week 2
Rickie Weeks - FKAky
3 Hr's, 5 Rbi's, 9 R's, 1 SB, .333 Avg, and 1.455 OPS.
Rickie had the advantage of playing a five games this week and he took advantage of those extra at bats in winning the POW for week 2. His 3 homeruns and 9 run scored separated him from the pack this week. Congratulations!
noteworthy:
Carlos Lee - Box Chowers
3 Hr's, 7 Rbi's, 4 R's, .389 Avg, and 1.310 OPS.
Chipper Jones - Poppers
3 Hr's, 7 Rbi's, 6 R's, .364 Avg, and 1.254 OPS.
Jimmy Rollins - FKAky
3 Hr's, 5 Rbi's, 5 R's, .333 Avg, and 1.190 OPS.

2 Hr's, 5 Rbi's, 4 R's, .417 Avg, and 1.450 OPS. (4 games played)
Previous Winners:

POW (Pitcher of the Week): Week 2
Brad Penny - Full Flannel
2 W's, 13.1 IP, 0.68 ERA, 1.05 Whip, -2 K-BB.
Pitching this week was horrendous and it made choosing a POW very easy. Brad Penny benefited from pitching two games and won both games in earning this weeks POW for Week 2. I almost gave it to Peavy though, it was a tough call but Penny's Era made up for the negative K-BB ratio.
Noteworthy:
Tim Hudson :
2 W's, 14 IP, 0.64 ERA, 1.00 Whip, 6 K-BB.
Jake Peavy - FKAky
1 W, 7 IP, 1.29 ERA, 0.71 Whip, 1 K-BB.
Rich Hill - Diggleturds
1 W, 7 IP, 0.00 ERA, 1.00 Whip, 1 K-BB
Derek Lowe - Full Flannel
1 W, 8 IP, 1.13 ERA, 1.13 Whip, 4 K-BB.
Ian Snell - Heaters
1 W, 7 IP, 1.29 ERA, 1.00 Whip, 2 K-BB.
Previous Winners:
Ted Lilly - Diggleturds - Week 1
WOW (Worthless of the Week): Week 2
Where do I start for this weeks category. I can't count the number of worthless outings from Starting Pitchers this week on two hands. This weeks WOW for Week 2 is Zach Duke.
Zach Duke - Utility Men
1 G, 1 L, 2 IP, 7 ER's, 31.50 ERA, and 4.50 WHIP.
I had to list the other SP that had horrible starts too. Clay Hensley had 2 horrific outings. There are in order by worst ERA. Enjoy!
Jason Schmidt - Beaners
1 G, 1 L, 2 IP, 5 ER's, 22.50 ERA, and 4.50 WHIP.
Bret Myers - Full Flanull
1 G, 1 L, 3.1 IP, 7 ER's, 18.90 ERA and 2.40 WHIP.

1 G. 1 L, 5 IP, 6 ER's, 10.80 ERA, and 2.60 WHIP.
Previous Losers:
Jorge Julio - Pickle Weasels - Week 1
Brad Lidge - Box Chowers - Week 1
Week 2 Recap
6.5 - Andy's Full Flanal
5.5 - Calvin's Slumpbusters
In a classic head-to-head win, beat Calvin by winning all pitching categories and tying HRs. This was tied 6-6 going into Monday and Andy hit the HR to tie.
9.0 - Prothero's Poppers
3.0 - Todd's Heaters
The Poppers led all week despite horrid pitching performances by both teams. Albert Pujols picked the wrong week to slump for Todd and his offense couldn't get going either.
7.0 - Dan's Pickle Weasels
5.0 - Dustin's Diggleturb
In a battle of teams apparently trying to lose, Dan wins a close one. Weekly averages of .236 and .222, yikes!
10.0 - Brian's Box Chowers
2.0 - Matt's Utility Men
Between Brian's dominating pitching week and Matt's worst ever pitching week (6.00 ERA and 2.19 WHIP!!!) this one was over before it started.
11.0 - Kelley's FKAKY
1.0 - Jim's Beaners
Kelley would have beat everyone this week. Thus, the total domination. He may have blew his wad too early. Look at this line:
Kelley's hitting: 40 r, 14 hr, 36 rbi, 4 sb, .344 ave, 1.091 ops
Kelley's pitching: 46 ip, 5 w, 3 sv, 1.57 era, 1.07, 18 k-bb
WOW.

Draft Analysis
I have two sets of pre-season projections: ESPN and RotoTimes. I don't have projected $ values, but just looking at the projected stats will give us an idea of where teams are at (hitting heavy, pitching heavy, balanced, neither, etc).
Just a quick look at the standings using projected stats and assuming no changes, FA pickups, or any other risk gets us a general ranking of this:
PLACE STDDEVThe surprise of the draft is clearly Todd who was consistently 1 or 2. Matt, Calvin, and Jason are a pretty solid 2, 3, 4. Then it gets crazy. Kelley is the most schitzo ranging from 5th to 10th. Basically, the middle is a toss up. The only thing fairly solid is that Brian and Jim are trailing the pack. I think Jim probably could have called that since he didn't pick up a 6th player until the 90th pick (53rd after keepers) and that pick was Mike Jacobs. Of course, these places are based off of category rankings. Anything could happen in a keeper league with playoffs.
Todd 1.25 0.50
Matt 2.00 0.82
Calvin 3.00 0.82
Jason 4.00 0.82
Dustin 5.75 1.26
Andy 6.75 1.71
Kelley 6.75 2.36
Dan 7.25 0.96
Brian 8.75 0.96
Jim 9.50 0.58
It was an interesting draft. The keepers guaranteed that. Despite the extra money many teams had, there wasn't really much draft inflation. People weren't throwing their money around quite like I thought they would. Calvin probably had the most money to play with yet he waited a long time to spend money after his first 4-5 guys drafted.
The overall money split was 64% hitting to 36% pitching. That includes keepers. Thirteen players were over $30 including two over $40. There were 30 players that cost $1.
The Teams:
Todd's Heaters
Todd's draft can be summed up as Albert Pujols, Chris Carpenter, and guys Dan wanted. He's really hoping that "sophomore slump" thing doesn't exist because he has more than a few candidates. He also seems to like drafting players from his favorite team, the 1996 Mariners. Ken Griffey, Vizquel, and Moyer really skew the average age up a bit.
Balanced. Todd has a pretty balanced team. Generally decent at pitching and hitting. He's going to win SBs almost every week and probably get some serious runs because of that. His pitching is solid except that Chris Carpenter is hurt early.
Best Non-Keeper Value: Dan Wheeler, $6 (future Astros closer?)
The "what were you thinking?!?": Kerry Wood, $1. (injury waiting to happen)
Biggest risk: Ken Griffey Jr., $12
Breakout candidate: Anthony Reyes, $10
Matt's Utility Men
Matt wanted to spend money this season and he did. He had to wait 50 picks from the time he bought Jeremy Hermidia for $9 to start drafting his last 5 $1 players. I think he was napping between bringing up guys.
Balanced. His keepers really helped his pitching staff be in the top tier. Drafting Hoffman and Cordero will give him no worries on the closer front. The only question mark is Pedro who will undoubtable help Matt in the playoffs a ton. He's definitely more vulnerable in the first half of the season. His hitting will be fine if Reyes repeats his peformance of last season and Derrick Lee is good again. There's some big question marks on offense, but the anchors of Utley, Fielder, Lee, and Reyes should keep him consistent from week-to-week.
Best Non-Keeper Value: Pedro Martinez, $9 (depending on when he comes back)
The "what were you thinking?!?": Jeremy Hermidia, $9 (leaving him with $5 for 5 players 2/3 through the draft)
Biggest risk: Pedro Martinez, $9
Breakout candidate: John Maine, $10
Calvin's Slumpbusters
Calvin came in with the most money available with two keepers at $1 and a $2 keeper. He was throwing his money around early buying Bay, Delgado, Gordon, Lopez, and Oswalt. But I think he took on more risk than necessary. John Patterson, Ryan Dempster, Jim Edmonds, and a few others all have high probablilities of bombing/getting hurt. And they didn't come cheap either. So Calvin was left getting 5 for $5 at the end despite having so much money after keepers.
Balanced. Calvin is going to struggle with batting average and SBs against the top speed teams, but otherwise his hitting is solid. Especially of all of his keepers who were breakout guys last year continue what they did last season (which isn't a guarantee). Pitching wise Calvin will be solid if his pitchers do whats projected of them. After Oswalt there's not a lot of proven history. Patterson gets hurt and Wainwright, Chuck James, and Scott Olsen are either first time starters or are in the sophomore slump watch status. IPs will be and issue, but everything else should be good enough to win in any given week.
Best Non-Keeper Value: Ryan Dempster, $9 (assuming he closes all year)
The "what were you thinking?!?": John Patterson, $17 (great, but lots of injury risk)
Biggest risk: John Patterson & Jim Edmonds, $13
Breakout candidate: Adam Wainwright, $11
Prothero's Poppers
I had kept more "stars" than anyone else, thus had the least money at the start of the draft. This meant I wasn't in on any +$30 guys. Overall I think I drafted some good value and took on an acceptable amount of risk. My team is considerable younger than in years past. I did draft a few sentimental picks from the championship team from last year (Chipper, Nomar) to hang with my keepers.
Slightly Pitching-Oreiented. Other than the lack of saves which will keep me trolling the FA market all year, my pitching should win me plenty of games. Especially assuming Randy Johnson plays all year and is better than last season. This team was built on winning the averages (AVE, OPS, ERA, WHIP) and hoping the other stats fall into place. SBs will be a struggle, but the Poppers should compete in most hitting categories.
Best Non-Keeper Value: Josh Willingham, $16
The "what were you thinking?!?": Randy Johnson, $15 (too much for the risk)
Biggest risk: Randy Johnson
Breakout candidate: Kelly Johnson, $8
Dustin's Azzuri
Between Dusty doing Dan impressions and yelling at Jim, this draft was seriously entertaining. It appears Dusty's strategy for this draft was to draft as many potential keepers as possible. Should make for an interesting season if they all pan out or break out. My guess is a few will flame out and end up pissing Dusty off. He will need to spend his FA$ this season to plug holes as the season goes on. Dusty needs a team blog so we can continue the fun from the draft!
Pitching-Oriented. Dusty's pitching is simply more solid than his hitting. With the cheap keeper saves and the solid if not brilliant starters he should do well in pitching. Of course much of that depends on his ace, Ben Sheets, staying healthy. He will struggle to find SBs and all those young guys will kill his AVE and OPS. But he has a lot of guys that would be fun to have. And if Chris Young breaks out then Dusty may have his new favorite player (he looks and plays like Eric Davis).
Best Non-Keeper Value: Aaron Harang, $22 (Those K-BB make him valuable)
The "what were you thinking?!?": Kazuo Matsui, $7 (a little spendy for this never been)
Biggest risk: Ben Sheets
Breakout candidate: Pick 'em. Andre Either? Kouzmanoff? Chris Young?
Andy's Full Flanull
I think Andy is physically unable to draft power. The self proclaimed "Best Team Ever" isn't going to win a team HR derby competition. Andy ended up having a bunch of cash at the end of the draft, which of course isn't a good thing. If Andy drafted Luis Gonzalez he could have renamed his team to the "Has beens". Luis would fit right in with Helton, Shawn Green, Preston Wilson, Scott Hatteburg, and Paul LoDuca!
Pitching-Oriented. By keeping three starters he had a good base. Andy will need to win by taking the pitching categories (except saves) and hoping to take runs, AVE, and SBs on the hitting side. Andy may never win the HR, RBI, or OPS category all season. Andy should have picked up another closer and tried to get that last pitching category because his ERA and WHIP won't win every week.
Best Non-Keeper Value: Ryan Freel, $15 (SBs)
The "what were you thinking?!?": Shawn Green, $12 (he's no longer good)
Biggest risk: Todd Helton, $21 (another guy declining steadily)
Breakout candidate: Khalil Greene, $11
Kelley's FKaky
Kelley was on the fast track to spending $10 for 10 players at the end of the draft, but Dusty bailed him out by trading him some valuable cash with Weathers for Kouzmanoff. He was a big early spender nabbing Soriano ($40), Beltran ($39), and Peavy($27) for a pretty penny. He may have drafted enough talent to overcome his crazy keeper strategy. It's like he was throwing darts at a dartboard picking those guys :).
Hitting-Oriented. He's got some big names on the offense. Kelley could vastly improve himself with a few key FA pickups. Too many part-timers and guys not playing much doom his RBI, Runs and even HRs a little. But if he picks up some guys that play he'll be a force on offense. He should rarely lose the OPS category. On the pitching side, he's good enough to win most categories except maybe IP and Saves. If he didn't get Weathers in that trade he would not have had double digits in saves. Of course, even with Weathers he may not.
Best Non-Keeper Value: Dave Weathers, $6 (If he's the closer all year)
The "what were you thinking?!?": Ricky Weeks, $21 (i know...he's a keeper)
Biggest risk: Barry Bonds, $22 (just cause of his knee)
Breakout candidate: Chris Iannetta, $13
Dan's Pickle Weasels
Dan missing the draft - $0.
Dustin drafting for Dan - $0.
Many beers and shots of tequila - $10.
Listening to Dustin be "Dan" - Priceless
Hitting-Oriented. Dan probably has the best hitting team in the league. But his pitching is possibly the worst in the league. Of course, in head-to-head, that just may work. If Dan can get lucky on a few rookie pitchers in the FA market or make a key trade, he could be a force to be reckoned with.
Best Non-Keeper Value: Geoff Jenkins, $7 (off to a hot start...)
The "what were you thinking?!?": Jorge Julio, $17 (already lost his job)
Biggest risk: Armando Benitez, $7
Breakout candidate: Troy Tulowitzki, $12
Brian's Box Chowers
Brian stayed more sober this draft. Time will tell if it helped. It's definitely not as fun to yell "Sauza!", but it is fun to say. His draft strategy appears to be to load up on pitching that he can trade during the season.
Pitching-Oriented. If Lidge would have kept his job, he would have won saves every week. He still has 2 closers and another 2 guys who will get a few saves thoughout the season. Plus, he has a great ace in Smoltz and a solid 2-4 with Willis, Lowry, and Suppan. Unfortunately, the Box Chowers hitting resembles the Golden State Warriors of the late 80's. It's Berkman, Lee, and Andruw...and a bunch of guys who aren't going to help you win in the playoffs. If you've got hitting, expect a trade offer by June.
Best Non-Keeper Value: Noah Lowry, $8
The "what were you thinking?!?": Brad Lidge, $13
Biggest risk: Jason Isringhausen, $16
Breakout candidate: Shane Victorino, $7
Jim's Beaners
Former Champions Jim's Beaners are still trying to regain the magic of 2005. Jim looked a little shell shocked as he waited a loooong time to start drafting. Most of the studs were gone by then, but at least he has David Wright to keep him afloat. It will be interesting to see how the strategy to keep three RPs (1 closer) works out.
Hitting-Oriented. He is hitting oriented, but it appears his AVE and OPS could be bad. But he'll be good at everything else. Pitching will be an adventure. He's hoping Jason Schmidt is lights out for the Dodgers or else...
Best Non-Keeper Value: Aaron Rowand, $8
The "what were you thinking?!?": Oliver Perez, $9 (did you see his whip last season?)
Biggest risk: Cliff Floyd, $8
Breakout candidate: Cole Hamels, $19
Good luck for the season everyone!
My pitching is killing me...
Zambrano pitched so bad last night that sweet Lou Pinella blew a gasket in the post game interview (link). And Brandon Webb was doing his best Zambrano impression last night. At least he pitched 7 innings. My overall K-BB is -3!
You'd think with an ERA of 5.90 and a WHIP of 1.69 for the week there's no way I could win a single pitching category. Yet I'm still in it because Todd has a 5.66 ERA and 1.47 WHIP! Sad times people...
Week 1 Recap
Week 1 Results
9.5 - Andy's Full Flanal
2.5 - Todd's Heaters
Andy dominated Todd in hitting sweeping all categories.
5.0 - Dustin's Diggleturb
7.0 - Prothero's Poppers
Jason eeked out a win in the first week despite having Randy Johnson in the lineup. The difference was somehow getting 6 wins (to Dusty's 4) with half as many IP.
3.0 - Kelley's FKAKY
9.0 - Dan's Pickle Weasels
Dustin is 1-1 in week 1 :). Hitting takes the week for Dan.
8.5 - Calvin's Slumpbusters
3.5 - Matt's Utility Men
Closer than the score indicates. Matt needed 2/3 IP, 1 SV, 2 HRs, and 1 W to win the week.
1.0 - Brian's Box Chowers
11.0 - Jim's Beaners
Dan Uggla who? Jim takes week one in a landslide.

Players of the Week: Week 1
Here are the players of the week for Week 1. Please note that Sunday April 1st and Monday April 2nd are not figured into the stats for some unknown reason by TQStats. So if the stats seem off that is why. Also note that I will try to keep the list to four people at each category (Hitters and Pitchers). So if you thought your player had a great week and isn't listed, it is because I narrowed it down to the top 4. I will also try to be bias too.
Hitters:
HOW (Hitter Of the Week)- Week 1
Miguel Cabrera - Poppers
2 Hr's, 7 R's, 7 Rbi's, .450 Avg, 1.438 OPS
It was a close call between Miguel and Eric this week. The astronomical Avg and OPS pulled Miguel away from Eric though. The 4 SB's from Eric could have won it for him but his Avg and OPS couldn't compete with Miguel.
Note worthy:
Eric Byrnes - Slumpbusters
2 Hr's, 4 R's, 5 Rbi's, 4 SB's, .300 Avg, .930 OPS
Geoff Jenkins - Pickle Weasels
3 Hr's, 4 R's, 6 Rbi's, .353 Avg, 1.330 OPS
Mike Jacobs - Beaners
2 Hr's, 8 R's, 4 Rbi's, .409 Avg, 1.344 OPS
Pitchers
POW (Pitcher Of the Week) - Week 1:
Ted Lilly - Diggleturds
13 Inn's, 1 Win, 12 K-BB's, 2.77 ERA, and 0.85 Whip
The K-BB ratio and low Whip won it for Ted this week. There were lower ERA's but the K-BB ratio played big in selecting this weeks winner.
Noteworthy:
Jake Peavy - FKAky
13 Inn's, 1 Win, 5 K-BB's, 0.69 ERA, and 0.92 Whip
Ian Snell - Heaters
13 Inn's, 0 Win, 12 K-BB's, 2.08 ERA, and 0.92 Whip
Cole Hamels - Beaners
13 Inn's, 0 Win, 11 K-BB's, 1.38 ERA, 1.08 Whip
WOW - (Worthless Of the Week) - Week 1:
This award goes to the two closing pitchers that lost or will be losing their job as closer.
Jorge Julio - Pickle Weasels
28.13 ERA, 7.50 WHIP, 1 L, 5 Er's, 1.2 IP's, 3 G's
Brad Lidge - Box Chowers
25.71 ERA, 7.14 WHIP, .2 IP's, 5 Er's

Finals Wk1 Recap and Wk2 Preview
RECAP: Even in HRs and SBs, the Slumpbusters scratched by in Runs on the final day while the Poppers offense crushed the rest of the hitting categories by a very wide margin. A better-than-average week for Slumpbuster pitching resulted in 1 more win and 2 more saves, and getting 9 more IP helped top the K-BB category by 4. However, a solid Poppers rotation gave Jason the edge in ERA/WHIP despite Scott Olsen's mishap on Saturday.
HITTING PREVIEW: Going into the final 6 days, the Slumpbusters offense takes a huge hit as team MVP Nick Johnson goes down with a broken femur, joining fellow stud 1B Derrek Lee on the pine. Can super-subs Mark Sweeney and Russ Branyan save the Slumpbusters from another crushing at the hands of (gulp!) Luke Scott and Barry Bonds? Baserunning should be a toss-up, with Hanley Ramirez and Endy Chavez running for the Poppers versus Felipe Lopez and Eric Byrnes for the Slumpbusters.
PITCHING PREVIEW: Poppers will get 7 starts from their 5 SP, while the Slumpbusters get 6 from 6. The nod goes to the Poppers if Maddux can survive a trip to Coors and then beat ROY candidate Matt Cain on 3 day's rest. Calvin's closing trifecta of Borowski/Cordero/Wickman should get ample opportunities as the Fish, BrewCrew and Braves try to spoil the Phils, Cards, and Astro's postseason hopes. Popper closers Flash and Wheeler should keep it close, as PHI/HOU are white hot and can smell October.
CALVIN'S CALL: Poppers 10-2 in the final week to take the trophy. Slumpbusters manage to tie in Runs and SBs, while winning only the Saves category outright. 'Carpenter & the Kids' can't overcome the steady veteran presence of Zambrano, Maddux and Webb, as Pedro again implodes and the kids (Hamels, Anibal, James, R.Hill) crumble under pressure.
FINAL WEEK MVP: Brandon Webb, with 2W, 1 SHO, 12 K-BB and winning the Cy Young over the Slumpbuster's Chris Carpenter.
Tuesday, September 19, 2006
Semifinals Results
One comeback and one sweep setup an interesting championship between a semi-underdog and a team that should have got there.
Calvin followed up his 7-5 win over Andy to smash him 9.5-2.5 and head into the championship round. Andy had a horrible week as his strength, pitching, let him down. Calvin left the door open with his average hitting week, but Andy couldn't capitalize and is out of the playoffs.
Jason parlayed a great pitching week into a 8.5-3.5 comeback win after losing 7-5 in week one. Kelley tried to keep it close with a great power week, but poor pitching and poor hitting overall did him in. It was a close series the whole way.
The final matchup in the BVRRL championship will be Calvin's Slumpbusters versus Jason's Poppers.
Tuesday, September 12, 2006
Semifinals
Couple close game 1's. Both 7-5.
Kelley hung on for the victory against the Poppers as both teams were very even.
FKAKY 7 - Poppers 5
Calvin took one pitching category from Andy and all the hitting categories which was good enough for the 7-5 win.
Slumbusters 7 - Full Flanal 5
Tuesday, September 05, 2006
Round 2 Results
Great comeback by Calvin to push into the third round of the playoffs. Everyone else pretty much held status quo and the winners won both games.
