posty 2,315 Posted April 11, 2016 Anyone going to post the weekly standings like I did in the past? I know I am out this year, but I would like to follow along... Gratitude... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WhiteWonder 2,223 Posted April 11, 2016 I had one game rained put but considering boston had 2 or 3 rain outs I really Shor myself in the foot. Sunday alone was sad. I for some reason thought Hellickson pitched today so I missed out on a W and I played Navarro and his game got rained out, leaving Vogt on the bench. Thankfully he went 0 Fer. Literally should have been 7-7 if I started Hellickson (wins and whip) rather than 5-8. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cmh6476 778 Posted April 26, 2016 even better when your Homer match-up real team is beatin up on the your opponents real team in the same week Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mookz 1,289 Posted April 28, 2016 even better when your Homer match-up real team is beatin up on the your opponents real team in the same week So I noticed. I was going to mention it going in but I had a feeling the Os wouldn't be able to hang with the champs. I've been getting killed on Sundays. I think if each week so far had ended on Saturday, I'd be around .500. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WhiteWonder 2,223 Posted April 28, 2016 I feel like the rays have had a day off each week. Today they have one. It's hard to keep pace with some of these stacked teams when that happens. I'll definitely lose any lead I have over LA today. And to top it off I lose Jaso and McGee to a rain out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WhiteWonder 2,223 Posted April 28, 2016 A month into the season.... taking a look at my draft Joey Bats has been what I expected. No more no less. Definitely could have used Wade Davis but luckily even with Boxberger going down I was able to draft Rodney and still have 3 closers. Got lucky there with the Rays choosing Colome as interim closer. Makes missing Kevin Jepsen sting a little less. Zobrist has been meh so not lamenting his loss too much and out of the three pitchers I was torn between for rounds 2 and 3, the guy I passed on (Kazmir) has been struggling the most. Benoit is on the DL but I think he will be alright and I badly need a source of holds. Howell has been useless and somehow focking Peralta is back from the dead and racking up holds in Seattle but not for me... Upton has been a major surprise and maybe my steal of the draft. Hitting cleanup, even on the Padres and he is swiping some bags again.... Navarro is also heating up a bit as my #2 catcher. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WhiteWonder 2,223 Posted May 1, 2016 I look at my lineup and I really.like it. Of course it doesn't compare to a real redeaft lineup but it feels like one of the better that I've had. Yet when I go to team stats and sort through I am bottom half in most offensive categories Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WhiteWonder 2,223 Posted May 6, 2016 Note to the new owners.... keep plugging away even if things have not gone off to a great start. 8 of 14 teams make the playoffs and a few good weeks can make up a lot of ground. also pay mind to how many add/drops go on in the league. If you have exclusive players sitting in free agency, they might not be worth a full time roster spot but they can help out on days that your main team is not playing. Not saying you need to be add/drop-aholics like some of us but it can sometimes really be the difference between winning or losing a few more categories each week. Could I just sit tight with Strasburg, Archer, Smyly, Moore, Odorizzi and Shields on my roster and play them when they start games? Sure, but it helps to have guys like Hellickson and Karns that I can add when i'm short on wins/k's/quality starts... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mookz 1,289 Posted May 6, 2016 Why Yahoo gotta lock your players when a game is rained out before it was scheduled to start? No time to sub in other players. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZeroTolerance 582 Posted May 8, 2016 Note to the new owners.... keep plugging away even if things have not gone off to a great start. 8 of 14 teams make the playoffs and a few good weeks can make up a lot of ground. This. Last year's the Indians were 14th place after four weeks (26-36). The rest of the season: 176-102 Went 0-4 head-to-head to start the year, then won 15 of the next 17.
