My rotation for the last 3 weeks has been David Price, Carlos Martinez, Taijuan Walker, Michael Pineda, and Eduardo Rodriguez/Carlos Rodon.....Strasburg is hurt, but my pitching staff blows.

I'm somehow tied 5-5 with 3 days left and I hold the tie breaker.

Atta boy, I'm up 9-1 (12 categories) and hold the tie breaker as well. My opponent has 5 O's players (he's an O's fan) and that's what's been killing him this week. Hopefully it continues into the weekend.

I have won my very complex league that I was telling all you about in our 2nd year in existence. 3rd place last year and 1st this year. 5-1 in the playoffs for the Hahn Jobs :)

Won the final by 200 points. :D

 

5 straight titles!

I started the year with Shelby Miller and James Shields on my roster. I placed 10th out of 12 teams due to a pitching staff I couldn't get figured out all season and disappointing years from Lorenzo Cain, Buster Posey, and Todd Frazier. I gave away Freddie Freeman for Taijuan Walker at the deadline looking for some keeper value. Walker struggled with his control the rest of the year and even went down to the minors at one point, and Freeman carried the other team to the title with his torrid finish, including 11-for-22 with 2 homers and 2 SB's in the championship week. Not my finest work.

 

Brights spots were Brian Dozier, Dansby Swanson, Rich Hill, and Tyler Thornburg.

Won $110 in one league, finished 2nd out of 12 in the other one. Not too bad.

10 and no. But people do try.

I can't believe the playoff run that I'm having in Soxtalk Keeper #1. :unsure: :ph34r:

I lost my title game by 8 strikeouts. Thor was scratched Sat and pushed to next week. FML

Nice man. When you're older and have a job you can win $770 like I did lol

In my championship week and Ramos goes down.

 

Why doesn't Yahoo turn him from DTD to DL?

Knight, it's likely due to him not being on the actual DL in real life. They only place players on the DL once they've been placed on DL in real life.

 

My guess is that due to the expanded rosters, WAS hasn't taking too much care to put him on the DL.

Probably since Nats don't need to open room on their roster (expanded rosters). Just drop him.

I'd consider it, but I'm in a keeper league and he might be a good low choice for next year's draft.

I thought thats why you probably wouldn't do it. That sucks.

I can't believe it.

 

From 11th to 6th to winning it all - in one season.

 

 

Welp, I acquired my 8 championship titles this year.

 

That's my quota.

Need advice. In a dynasty league and have this offer on a table

 

I Receive:

Noah Syndergaard

Ryon Heely

Gleyber Torres

Austin Meadows

Tyler Beede

 

He Receives:

Kris Bryant

Zach Davies

2nd Round Pick (In Amateur draft)

Solid haul there, but I pass --> Kris Bryant too valuable.

I took the deal. I think the upside is too much. And all that for one player is great.
