I see Reality has resumed, and I'm back in the lead (for how long?) It's the All star Break next week, so a chance for teams and players to reorganise

The All Star break is the 3 days off that the teams take from regular play, so that the (fan-voted) best of the National League can play against the best of the American League in a semi-exibition game. I say "semi" exhibition because although the individual stats of those players playing do not count for anything, the league that wins the game gets home field advantage in the World Series. This year, the game is in Kansas City (beautiful ballpark, my old stomping grounds, albeit decades ago). Here's a link to the festivities: mlb.mlb.com/mlb/events/all_star/y2012/index.jspNot only is there the actual All Star Game, but there's a home run hitting contest, a legends' softball game and all kinds of other activities.

Yes, very badly. It's strange too because most of my players have been doing well.

I hadn't checked in a while, and had THREE on the DL, I moved them to the bench, and this weekend, I'm going to have to trade em.

You can put two players on the DL and just add replacements while they are on the DL. That is, if you don't want to possibly lose them to waivers.

Can I point out the fllowing I saw on the league page:
"The deadline to complete trades in this league is Sunday, Aug 19"
So I'm presuming all line ups are final come Monday. Time to get rid of the DL's and dead weights for the turn to home.
