Part of the problem last year was that nobody even signed up for some spots. I did a quick check and there were 3 or 4 series that we went completely unprepared for, plus another 7 where somebody put together an emergency KTE. Not so bad.
If you (or anybody else) really wants what's already taken (especially if you really wanted Marlins, Braves, Phillies, etc. -- there are 6 series per each of those teams this year) feel free to speak up and we can split things up.

Sounds fine to me. Home to SF over to DocTee, if you please; I'll hold onto the first.
Staying out west, I'll also try my hand at razin' Arizona (both series).

Steve -- howsabout we give you the @PHI series and we give GYC the vs. PHI series?
MGIM -- you already signed up for Tampa. Did you want something else in addition? (We have a few open spots -- Houston, a Cubs series) or if you wanted a series or two for some NL east opponents, that could be arranged too).

I think the tough one is tonight's game v Kershaw. I'm looking for Nick Evans to provide the big stick we need.
Tomorrow we deal with Kuroda and the return of Ollie Perez (sorry haters, way better than Redding even when Redding's good, then we get Livan against the beatable if ornery Randy Wolf.
Yes, I see a sweep.

Just back from outta town driving my daughter to Virginia. No KTE but as Ben said, we don't need them. Everything from my first Dodger KTE applies except that Manny Ramirez is back, they are still winning and their sweep of the Mets was the beginning of the end of The Era of Good Feeling (at least with respect to the notion that we could get along without our star players).
