bbascom 20 Posted July 4, 2016 Well...after seeing my Red Sox lose a game 21-2 this week and also witnessing a bunch of poor pitching performances from my starters (Lester - 1 1/3 with 8 ERs among others) and relievers I can't really complain with finishing with a 7-7 tie with the Rangers this week. Moved me down to second in the league by 1 game but I can't complain, it's been a good year for me so far. Congrats on taking the poll position for now Zero Tolerance...I'm coming back to get it!!!

cmh6476 757 Posted July 4, 2016 With the addition of morales to of eligibility, I have a lot of of/ 1b pop I could move in conjunction with the as supp. I'm obviously looking for help at sp. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shotsup 832 Posted July 8, 2016 Im a freaking genius. Or lucky. Had no option at first base as stoopid yahoo has Reyes SS exclusively and Ryan Zimmerman off. Moved a few guys around and still no 1B. Put Murphy at first and left Non starter Wilmer Flores at 3rd base in just in case he pinch hits. PHs 3 run homer on first pitch !!!!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He hasn't played non SS since 2004, what did you expect them to do, put 3B eligibility on there immediately? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shotsup 832 Posted July 9, 2016 He hasn't played non SS since 2004, what did you expect them to do, put 3B eligibility on there immediately? Of course I did. He was signed to play 3B for the injured David Wright. He should have a 3B tag right off the "bat" no pun intended. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mookz 1,287 Posted July 10, 2016 Of course I did. He was signed to play 3B for the injured David Wright. He should have a 3B tag right off the "bat" no pun intended. Yahoo has very specific rules for positional eligibility. This is something you shall learn. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Has Mookz says, Yahoo has rules... Once he gets 5 starts at 3B or 10 games played there, he will have 3B added to him along with SS... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GuardBum 73 Posted July 28, 2016 So then, the top two teams have a 25 game lead? Yeah right. Although 3-8 are only separated by 5 games The standings really separated though this season. 9-10 still in it but 11-14 have long hill to climb. 10 weeks to go?

ZeroTolerance 582 Posted August 17, 2016 Time for me to get f*cked by injuries nice and hard. Choo with his fourth and final DL visit of the year, Brantley done for the year, Braun possibly heading to the DL to join Salazar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ZeroTolerance 582 Posted August 17, 2016 Isn't Salazar pitching Thursday? Hopefully (for my fantasy team anyway). "Elbow inflammation" in a young pitcher could go away, or he could be back on the DL in a couple starts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZeroTolerance 582 Posted August 29, 2016 Team looks like trash all week then steals a bunch of categories on Sunday (again). Amazing that the Rangers' lineup posted the following offensive stats for him today: 1 R, 1 SB, 1 BB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shotsup 832 Posted August 31, 2016 I hate when this happens. Granderson didn't start so I didn't start him. He comes in to pinch hit and stay in on a double switch. Hits TWO HRs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bbascom 20 Posted September 1, 2016 Well yesterday was interesting for my lineup. I had set 3 starting pitchers yesterday morning only to find out last night that Phelps was sent to the DL all of the sudden and then Hill was a last minute scratch pretty much due to the blister he has been fighting for the last month and a half or so. Weird day for sure for my lineup. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GuardBum 73 Posted September 1, 2016 Excuses Excuses you can't stand that I'm winning you. Or something like that. Mets finally hitting consistently Oh no. That was the last couple weeks.

Mookz 1,287 Posted September 12, 2016 Guys, I have a bit of a confession. Things were touch-and-go for pretty much the whole season, there, as I hovered around the .500 mark. But with a strong finish, I can now confirm that teh O's will officially be back to defend their crown this year.
