IBC

Looking for some upgrades to help me this season. I'm looking to upgrade at:
SS (over INJ Lowrie or Scales)
Catcher (Santana can be had for the right price, but I'll take a temp upgrade as well)
3b (over Lowell)
LF (over Luke Scott)
CF (over Denard Span)

The above mentioend players are of course available along with pretty much any prospects including:
Casey Kelly (0.70era, 23/4 k/bb ratio)
Caleb Gindl (.950 OPS through 93 AB's)
Bryan Augenstein (0.85era, 28k,6bb,31.2ip at AA)
Josh Reddick (1.002 OPS at AA)
Possibly Michael Bowden (everyone knows him)

I'm not shopping Elijah "put up yer" Dukes but would consider the right offer. Any inquiries about Webb or Greinke should probably be prepared to bend over and... well, use your imagination.

Other offers and inquiries welcome. Drop me a line over AIM, Gchat or via PM.

Why is Dukes a switch hitter in our DB? From what I can see, all 549 of his big league ABs have been from the right side of the plate.

It's a Zips thing, there are a couple players with 'issues'. Thank you for noticing, I have him in another league in which we are correcting such mistakes.

Yeah, the only reason I noticed was because I also have him in another league where we too are correcting clear errors. Personally, I think we should be doing that in the IBC too (whether they're ZiPS errors like Randy Johnson and Dukes, or DMB errors like Chipper rating at SS last year).

whats wrong with randy johnson?

I just went ahead and did this. Luckily for us, RJ hasn't pitched yet.

His real-life totals vs L/R were switched (one of the minority of players who received real L/R splits), so he was more effective vs RH, but projected 500+ ABs vs LH and fewer than 100 ABs vs RH.
