Surprisingly good:
:WAS: - Wow, I knew Jake was working his magic in Washington, but I didn't expect him to compete this quickly.
:KC: - David Wright is looking good.
Surprisingly Bad:
:TOR: - I guess I was looking for more from Toronto.
:COL: - Knowing they had lost a great GM to the Dodgers it was going to be an interesting transition, as Colorado looked for a replacement.
:OAK: - Horrid week 1. Much better week 2. The surprise was how bad week 1 was.
:NYM: - After spending like a bandit this off-season the results don't look much better. Start Span and Beltran and bench EVERYONE else.
Sleepers:
:PIT: I trust Colby's baseball prowess. I also understand his pattern of bettering the Pirates through draft and trade.
:LAD: This team is the reigning WS Champ for 2 years and Howe is no slouch. Tough to call a 12-4 team sleeping, but his may just be.
:SD: This could be selfish gloating, or bigoted egotism at it's worst; but who cares. I think the Padres are in a rough division, but the lamp is lit in Friar Village. They could finish middle of the road this year and increase their payroll!

I can see your Padres finishing .500. It is tough to judge teams this early as the first week is erratic. However, if teams lose too much in April the it may force them to sell... Unless they are the Twins of 2011.
-
Random thoughts:
- Someone wake Reid up. He has a lot of talent benched
- OAK is under .500 because opponents are average 1000 pts a week, highest in the league
- SEA is over .500 despite getting outscored by 3000 points (translates to about 200 pts a game)
- TEX deserves to be first averaging about 1390 per game (LA is second averaging 1262)
- MIL has about 8.5M and 9 spots to play with; scary combination with that loaded minor league system (Ben also needs to wake up)
- A lot of the contending teams need SP help, if you are rebuilding, now is the time to play these off each other and get a good prospect for your SP

he has left the site for good.

Again.....
-
If this is the case then it's time to get a replacement in here...there's at least 500 points on the bench.

I'm just waiting for Dan to open it up, I will be signing up!!!!

.500 is if everything clicks...but I can hope. I agree it's tough to judge due to erratic MLB play, people not setting lineups, moves yet to be made; but I'd like to see discussions pick up and I think this is a good one to keep running.
The tough thing about April is that there's a lot of season left. Sometimes you push that panic button too soon and things don't end up working out. I think being at the bottom of league expectations makes it easy to stand pat as well.

-Oakland had about 300 points their first week. That wouldn't beat many.
-Texas is out of this world right now.
-Where is Ben?
Any thoughts on Jakes Nats?

It is a marathon and not a sprint, long season.

MT I'm not bashing you...you were red hot last week.

I know, that is my standard response when discussing this stuff this early.
-
The Reds, White Sox, and Nationals have winning records after 16 games. Cincy and ChiSox have underperformed in the past couple years so no surprise there. The Nats are approaching last year's win total FAST!

The Nats are approaching last year's win total FAST!
I've had a couple early surprises (Thole, Overbay, Huff, Ellis), let's see if they can keep up their production through April. If I set my expectations low enough, I'll never be disappointed. :koolaid:
-
Reds are getting zero production from Ike, Duda, Heisey, and Beckham. Montero has been uninspiring as well. I know it's early but I am not as confident as I was going in to the year.

At least :CIN: has Duda and Heisey giving +points for you on the year; even if it isn't much. Davis and Beckham, yikes! I think you'll make strides going into March and things stabilize a little more. I mean the Padres are on fire this week, how long can that last? Things have a way of evening out in the end. Hamilton, Ortiz, Butler...and then those guys pick it up...yikes. Actually your team is built quite well if they perform to potential.

I LOL'd so hard I had to explain to my gf, sitting next to me, why. She didn't think it was as funny; which makes it so much better. I love this particular league and it's characters.
:SD: has one expectation; increase payroll. I said I'm a sleeper because I have 5 starting players in my lineup and a gap of nobody (unless Everth Cabrera gets the nod [a consummate AAAA player]). Otherwise its a rag tag group of 4th and 5th OFers, a backup IF, and a series of #5 pitchers, ACEd by Mat Latos. My Closer is the ever confident Chris Perez who gave up 2 hits again last night in a clinched save...yikes. Bright spot = Mat Gamel who finally looks like an MLB 1st Baseman.
-
I see two things working against :PIT:
A) They're in a rough division, with the potent :STL: :MIL: and :CIN:
B) The lineup needs to bolster the production it has. I'm not a Juan Pierre fan at this point in his career, but at least he's starting. If only Tyler Flowers were getting more at bats. Youkilis rounding into form would be nice too. There are 4 really good hitters in Pittsburgh this year; Eithier, Weiters, Denforia, Swisher. Really good!
-
The extra wildcard spot helps.
-
braves not getting the production needed from our batters outside of freese.... pitching has been my bright spot
-
Wahoo, what a week! The padres went 4-4 and with a little more production from my pitchers I could be a serious contender in the middle of the pack. Arizona and Colorado were swept, which should put me into 3rd in my division. SF went 3-4 (?) and they'll be two games ahead of me.
Rough week for :BOS:
Can't wait to talk standings when they come out tomorrow. It looks like :OAK: went off this week.

braves had an awesome week thanks to granderson and his 332 point week (221 points came from his 3 HR night)
