Tweeners 4, Rhinos 1
From the DVRhino...
Tweeners hose up their draft status even further with a 4-1 whipping of the Rhinos.
Game 1 had 44,846 in attendance as John Lannan and Justin Masterson start their arbitration campaign by combining on a 4 hit, 1-0 shutout.
Game 2 was another defensive struggle which saw the Rhino tandem of CC Sabathia and Joey Devine combining on a 4 hitter for a 2-1 win.
Game 3 finally had a bit more offense as the Tweeners unloaded for an 8-3 win with Jonathan Sanchez scattering 6 hits.
Game 4 was another Tweener offensive showing with a 12-4 pounding of Matt Garza. Shane Victorino tweeted to his faithful followers: “This $hit is too easy”
Game 5 saw Roy Oswalt throw a complete game and strike out 13 as the Rhinos lose 7-4 in spite of hitting 3 home runs. 'Everything felt great' Oswalt said. 'I had a good fastball, I felt I could throw it by everybody today.' Tweener manager Al Davis was quoted as saying “We’ll see how great it feels when he’s on the FFT’s roster, I’ve had enough of his winning ways screwing up my draft position.” The FFTs could not be reached for comment, as it was believed he was still in Columbia South Carolina trying to secure tickets for Ole Miss’ upcoming Independence Bowl appearance.
Rhinos finish at 88-74.

Current Rosters and Draft Picks Now Available
On the main page of the NASOMA.org website, there is now a link (2010 Rosters) that will open a page of the current rosters for next year. If your home page still says 2009 Rosters, hit the refresh button.
At the top, by the team name, is a number representing how many Reserve Spots you own. All of your players - active or not - are listed in alphabetical order. At the bottom of the list, there is a list of the draft picks you own. The first cell shows the rounds (1-10) where you still have your own pick - at this point everybody still owns all of his picks from round 11 on. The cell below it lists any additional picks you have obtained.
Just for bookkeeping purposes, I have moved the Inmate 2nd and the Wahoo 3rd from the Tweeners to the FFTs - although those picks could end up being the Tweener 2nd and Buckeye 3rd - based on the most recent trade between the Tweeners and FFTs.
As always, if I have made any mistakes, I'm sure you'll let me know.
If you want me to post the rosters in excel format for you to download, let me know.

Tweeners 4, Pastas 3
From Logan County...
Tweeners continue to jeopardize draft position by winning more than losing. Not much offense by either team in this series; Zaps out-homer us 10 to 5, out-score us 29 to 27, and drop 4 of 7 games. One of our best offensive innings featured back-to-back "Alex Gordon X" rolls, which resulted in single+1-base error followed by single+2-base error. Our 11 inning win in game 6 was due in no small part to the "Jose Reyes X" single+error in the 11th inning. A "Connor Jackson X" result of "batter and all runners score" was also helpful. Thanks Hal.

9. Buckeyes - 437 - The A's. Enough said.
10. Sidewinders - 436 - Has a different team than the leaders in 5 of the 6 divisions, so it's possible he could make a run.
11. Drillers - 432 - Needs hot finishes from the Rays, Twins, Mets, and Brewers.
12. Nads - 431 - The only team to take the Rangers, but it's the D-Back pick that killed him.
13. SuperGoofs - 416 - Pirates? Really? And the Padres? And STILL not in last place? Wow.
14. Rhinos - 415 - A's and Rays did him in.
15. Wahoos - 407 - Indians... A's... D-Backs... At least he picked the Phillies
16. Mavs - 401 - A's and D-Backs with no division leaders.
1-2. FFTs and Warpigs - 480 wins - We have the same six teams. The only current division leader we didn't take was the Tigers (We took the ChiSox). The tie breaker is: How many games will ARod play? FFT pick: 77. My pick: 110. Games played so far: 102.
3. Killer Bees - 458 - Bees DID take the Tigers, but the Cubs and Mets are holding him back right now. They'll need to get hot for him to catch up.
4. Pastas - 457 - Red Sox and Cubs need to get hot.
5. Inmates - 454 - Needs wins from the Red Sox, Twins, and Brewers.
6. Tweeners - 452 - Twins, Mets, and Cubs are the key.
7. DVs - 448 - Took the Indians. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
8. Fungoes - 442 - Red Sox, Mets, and Cubs need to win.
9. Buckeyes - 437 - The A's. Enough said.
10. Sidewinders - 436 - Has a different team than the leaders in 5 of the 6 divisions, so it's possible he could make a run.
11. Drillers - 432 - Needs hot finishes from the Rays, Twins, Mets, and Brewers.
12. Nads - 431 - The only team to take the Rangers, but it's the D-Back pick that killed him.

Games
Inmates 4, Nads 3
From The HEAD INMATE...
Inmates continue their run to totally fuck up the season and the draft by taking 4 of 7 from the Nads at the Baptist Bowl.
Game 1 – Inmates tie game in 7th only to have Perez throw six pitches – two taters and a walk – to lose the game 7-5.
Game 2 – A see-saw battle. Inmates are ahead after 7, but Mr. Immolation Perez enters the game and allows a double, triple, and homer in one IP to hand the Nads a 9-8 victory.
Game 3 – This time Carlson ignites the Nads (?!?!), allowing a two-run blast in the 8th to allow the Nads to win 5-3.
Game 4 – Vintage Santana throws a 5-hit shutout. The Inmates finally win a game, 1-0.
Game 5 – Another close game, but David Murphy’s 2-run double in the 7th pushed the Beakless Chicken Gang over the top, 10-8.
Game 6 – Inmate pitchers combine on a 4-hitter and win 4-2.
Game 7 – The prophylactic game. Inmates almost waste 5-0 lead, but Lind hits two triples and Francisco saves a 6-5 win.
Inmates are now 56-84.

Games
Inmates 4, Killer Bees 1
From The HEAD INMATE...
At the Baptist Bowl, the Inmpotentmates take 4 of 5 from the Killed Bees.
Game 1 had Ryan Howard hitting a grand slam for all the Inmate runs, while the Bees out-hit the Baptist Bowlers 8-4 as the Inmates won 4-1.
Game 2 had the Inmates holding on for a 6-5 win with Francisco getting a rare save.
Game 3 saw the Inmates enter the last of the 9th trailing 6-5, but 3 singles, a walk, and Jojima’s 2nd error of the game iced it for the Beakless Chicken Gang.
The Bees avoided a sweep by holding the Inmates to 4 hits while scoring a 5-2 victory in game 4.
Brett Myers tossed a complete game 3-hitter in the series finale as the Inmates won 7-1.
Inmates are now 52-81 and trying desperately to lose the first pick of the draft…
Warpigs 2, Wahoos 1
The Pigs and Hoos squared off for three face to face dice games at the BallPork.
Game 1 - Warpigs won 9-1 - The much maligned Ervin Santana (16-8) went the distance, scattering 4 hits. Albert Pujols hit his 40th homer of the year, and Miguel Olivo went 3-4 with 2 RBI.
Game 2 - Wahoos won 7-2 - The even more maligned Fausto Carmona threw a complete game 3-hitter for the Hoos. Aramis Ramirez homered off of starter and loser Justin Duchscherer (18-2).
Game 3 - Warpigs 4, Wahoos 3 (12 innings) - The game was 2-2 into the top of the 8th when Jimmy Rollins homered off of Joakim Soria. In the bottom of the inning, though, Chipper Jones matched him with a homer of his own off of Carlos Marmol. In the top of the 12th, DH-turned-LF Manny Ramirez threw out the go ahead run at the plate; then in the bottom of the 12th, Albert Pujols ended the marathon with a 2-out smash off of the Feed Store across the road from the BallPork. Heath Bell (5-0), who had rescued the Pigs in the top of the inning, got the win. Taylor Buchholz absorbed the loss for the Hoos.
Killer Bees 3, Tweeners 1
From the BeeBoy...
Bees take 3 of 4 at the hive. not much else to report, both teams pretty much played like shit.

Sidewinders 3, Rhinos 2
The Sidewinders finish their regular season as the champs of the Ab Wheeler Division.
From the Snakeman...
The snkaes go 3-2 at home vs the genuine faux rhinos to finish the season 88-75. This is the 5th consecutive year in the playoffs and we have nothing to show for it.Well at least I can look forward to tamales and beer in the PigSty.....
1. snakes get to A.J early and hold on for victory
2. snakes win a close one 3-2. Pen pitches 5 scorless innings
3. snakes win on a jack wilson safety squeeze in the 13th
4. AJ exacts revenge and rhinos win 7-3. Polanco goes 4-4
5. Sheets pitches 7 strong innings for the victory. Hanley Ramirez hit a 2 run HR off Jimenez.
Stats to arrive soon on papyrus covered with charcoal chicken scratch

First Time For Everything
The FFTs are the first team in NASOMA history (as far as I can tell), to go thru a season without rolling dice a single time.
If the Rhinos are unable to attend the playoffs for face to face games, they will join the FFTs in this record.
And oddly, if the Rhinos ARE able to make it to the playoffs and get to the second round, it will be the first time a team played more post season face to face games (minimum of 8) than regular season face to face games (7).

DVs 4, SuperGoofs 1
From the DViasco...
DVs take 4 of 5, getting the first 4 and having the Halladay Fiasco and his 24-5 record on the bump for game 5. Of course the Goofs took game 5 in complete unrealistic fashion, pulling Zito in the second, and Torii Hunter hitting 2 homers off of The Fiasco. The Goofs wait 147 games before realizing they had a fully rested bullpen as they utilized Broxton, Adams, Hoffman, Brocail and Affeldt for 29 1/3 of the 41 innings in the series.
The DVs move to within 3 games of the Drillers in the NERDD. The DVs have 30 games remaining; the Drillers have only 8 - all vs the DVs.

Standings Update 9/1/09
Three of the division winners have been settled, with the Warpigs in the BUD, the Buckeyes in the MFD, and the Sidewinders in the AWD having separated themselves from the pack. In the NERDD, the Drillers have a 4.5 game lead over the DVs, but the DVs have 35 games remaining - including 8 head to head with the Drillers. It will be interesting to see if the DVs can make those last 8 important or if this is to be known as the Halladay Fiasco.
The Wild Card teams are probably locked in as well. The Rhinos and Wahoos have emerged from a group of about 5 contenders and should get the 5th and 6th seeds in the post season.
Two teams have finished their seasons, and four more are down to fewer than 10 games remaining.
