Damn, I had a chance at picking up McCutchen, I think.
Oh well. At least I got Gordon Beckham.
In between your 118 deals?
Seriously; you put him on your bench on Wednesday and put him back in the lineup on Sunday (a day after you woke up with a splitting headache from the 3 missed ringers).

yeah but I was up like 7 steals and he isn't the home run and RBI threat Matsui is which is what I needed at the moment. It's easy to look now and see he hit 3 homers, but he only had 3 all season so I played the right cards. The problem is that Matsui didn't even play that day and I would have subbed in McCuthen
I lost 8-2, but my stats weren't bad except ERA, just one of those weeks.
The Hammer is putting up 5r and 3RBI at a %471 clip this week....who wouldn't love to have that kind of production from their CI/3B?
Nice pickup Mel![]()
Alex Gordon is no slouch himself
Well, we all played each other twice and there are now just 5 more weeks to go before the playoffs start.
I made a lil' sheet where y'all can see who got whose number so far.
Read it as the teams on the left being the home teams:
A Fraud's Atrain Bashers Dominican Each Hit Screwballs HeHangs alamo's EricB Boogie
A Fraud's X 0-2 1-1 0-1 0-2 0-2 2-0 2-0 1-1 1-0
Atrain 2-0 X 1-0 1-1 1-0 0-2 1-1 1-1 1-1 1-1
Bashers 1-1 0-1 X 1-1 1-1 0-1 1-0 2-0 1-1 1-1
Dominican 1-0 1-1 1-1 X 0-2 0-2 0-2 0-2 1-0 1-1
Each Hit 2-0 0-1 1-1 2-0 X 0-2 1-1 0-1 2-0 1-1
Screwballs 2-0 2-0 1-0 2-0 2-0 X 0-2 1-1 1-0 1-1
HeHangs 0-2 1-1 0-1 2-0 1-1 2-0 X 1-1 1-1 2-0
alamo's 0-2 1-1 0-2 2-0 1-0 1-1 1-1 X 1-0 2-0
EricB 1-1 1-1 1-1 0-1 0-2 0-1 1-1 0-1 X 0-2
Boogie 0-1 1-1 1-1 1-1 1-1 1-1 0-2 0-2 2-0 X
Edit: I copied it from Excel, but no idea how to set it straight in here.
Go right ahead and fix it if one knows how.
One record is set already with the 5 weeks to go in the season.
BoogieKnights gets the Grizzly award for longest losing streak of the season at 8.
Good luck to most of the rest of y'all the rest of the way!

That's not really fixed but it's a little better I think. Several of the number columns need to be bumped over one.
notice the 2-0 next to me and the 0-2 next to Screwballs
Thanks for the effort whottt, but now it realy screws balls.
Let me sum it up by the times a team is getting owned by another for sure so far:
Bashers = 0
Screwballs = 1
Atrain = 1
Each Hit = 1
HeHangs = 1
alamo's = 2
EricB = 2
Boogie = 2
A Fraud's = 3
Dominican = 4
And the teams doing the owning on another for sure so far:
Screwballs = 4
Each Hit = 3
HeHangs = 3
alamo's = 2
A Fraud's = 2
Bashers = 1
Atrain = 1
Boogie = 1
EricB = 0
Dominican = 0

That's pretty awesome. To tell you the truth, it's been so long since I saw your team anywhere near mine in the standings, I'd forgotten you even had a team.
Props, and thanks for the reminder![]()
By the way dan, did you know that fantasy baseball now has a new term?
Leading your league in waiver wire moves, by like a margin of 40-50 moves, while still being completely out of the playoff picture 20 weeks into the season...is now offically called "taking a big ole ThunderDan".
Props on immortality![]()
why does everyone have a problem with me making roster moves? You guys say it like I should be ashamed or something
and plus, I'm only 11.5 games out with a couple weeks to play.
I don't have a problem with you making roster moves, I make a great deal of them myself. I'm just amazed at how ty you are at it.
I mean look at it this way, either you are the tiest waiver guy in history, or you are the tiest drafter in history. It has be one or the other. Well, actually it could be both, but there's absolutely no way it's neither.
waiver claims are more luck than skill, I just get what I need for the next day or week, I don't build my team around them.
Ok, so then you're the tiest drafter in history. Noted, with irony.
Too bad it doesn't do you any good. Imagine if Truth made like, 1% of the waiver wire moves you do.I just get what I need for the next day or week, I don't build my team around them.
Imagine if Mel did...
[QUOTE=whottt;3628742]again, they are free to do whatever they want.
No ?
well Truth was being a hard ass at the beginning of the season then gave up, I'm not a quitter, I give everything my all. If I'm going down, I'm going down fighting until the end. I'm not a quitter like the rest of the league. I'm 11.5 games out of the playoffs, my team is coming around and I have 5 weeks against teams I'm behind to pull it off, and if I get in the playoffs I have an easy first round matchup against a team I'm 2-0 against this season.
Hahahaha I beat whott again even though he tried my old tricks, he still loses
MY team really faded over the weekend. I think I may have just played my way out of a playoff spot![]()
No shame, as mine shined all week (especialy Roberts, Howard, Young, Broxton, Dempster and Feldman).
Feels good to go undefeated vs. last year's champ though.
Whottt, you next on the list brother.

Damn did you guys see the stats my team put up this past week. 17 HRS!!! I think thats the most my team has put up in a week. I had a few guys hit 2 on a given night.
Check the standings...look real closely at them. And those aren't your old tricks, if anything they're my old tricks.
On top of that, my team sucked this week and that was why I lost, not because you did anything special.
