Sure.
I'll get on around 9:30, 10ish and update you one game at a time (I already did most of the games, though. We were down 3-1, then we win 5-3 to force Game 6.

By the way, the following players can go to FA after this year:

-Mike Cameron (CON now D, RUN SPD A)
-Ryan Madson (from trade, CUT 4)
-Hideo Nomo (I got him as possible trade bait, never traded/used him. FORK 6, CTRL C)
-Ben Sheets (DCB 6)
-J.J. Hardy (CBCCC)
-Augie Ojeda (from trade, EEDEE)
-Brian Fuentes (2SFB 3)
If I only keep two players, I would keep Hardy and Fuentes, as I can find pitching easily, and I could probably get Torii Hunter or Guerrero in FA.

Nice job... But you went through the playoffs way to fast. The playoffs are the best part and you rushed them.

Good luck on your world series bid, although it's pretty unrealistic.

Good luck.

Sorry, I'll go MUCH slower next time.
anyways, I'll be on soon, my sister is playing animal crossing but she gets to go to the dentist in a 1/2 hour.

The game starts with a Rykel Soriano single, steal, and a Mike Cameron single to make it 1-0.
The game goes back and forth, and it becomes 3-3 in the 8th inning.
The rookie, Schroeder, acquired from the Vipers midseason, comes in, and gets the first two hitters.
But Carlos Delgado, on the first pitch he sees, a slider, rips it 412 feet for a home run.
4-3 Mets.
Billy Wagner comes on, and gets J.J. Hardy to ground out to second.

Big Papi singles to center field, and Andy Wallace comes in to pinch run (RUN SPD .
He steals second base as Augie Ojeda comes up.
He takes the first pitch, then sees a slider he likes and connects...

But Luis Castillo makes a great shoestring catch and doubles off Wallace to win the World Series!

Later...:
"What the hell was that?" shouted Alex Pacone. "You call that baseball?" Of course, it was a rhetoric question, but Schroeder and Ojeda, whom had cornered in the clubhouse, were scared nonetheless into meekly answering "No, sir."
"Exactly my point!" exclaimed Pacone. "I don't even know why you guys were on the playoff roster to begin with!"
Now, these guys weren't actually bad.
Schroeder, in 74 innings, had a 2.91 ERA, and went 5-2 with 5 saves.
Ojeda, though only in about 210 AB's, had batted .308 and hit 4 homers.

But Pacone didn't care.
So he basically fired them right there, in front of all their teammates.

I'm going to take pictures of all but 1 free agent (61, I just went to player search and searched, no requirements set) to let you know what there is to offer (I'll do this each year, I forgot my nice camera at my cousin's house yesterday so I'm using my dad's 6 year-old camera.)

Btw, Sheets wanted a raise to 11550, I gave him 8000 for 1 (maybe 2, I forgot already) years and he took it!
Also, something I hadn't seen before:
Chipper declared for FA. 2 other details I'll let slip are that CC's FA and the outfielders basically suck this year (Best one out there is probably an edited Milton Bradley (D's and B's)

Part 2, the 1 guy not shown is edited Rocco Baldelli (DCBEC, I think. FLD might be a D)
