These 12 managers signed up for 2016 Fantasy Baseball. What happened next will shock you!

question is do i have the stones to even offer it?!

pondering that trade offer...

Welp. Was asking a lot for Story since his production was going to be tough to replace. And now he's no good to me for the rest of the year. If anyone has an open DL slot and wants him as a keeper, hit me up. Will toss him overboard in a few days otherwise.

fuck it indeed!

Only slightly better than Vogt. But I was dropping him anyways, so what the hell.

thermo i came at you with another proposal

It's pretty good. Only thing holding me up is I'd be light in the OF dept after this.

Wow, this trade is wild.

Just crazy enough.

Was out of town for the weekend, limited internet access, didn't realize Betts was back. Benched a 3 HR game. Due to another similar error earlier this year I'm pretty sure I benched ANOTHER one of his multi-HR games, meaning due to two days I've missed out on 20% of his homers, lol.

ridic that kershaw is still ranked #1

i'm gunning for that fourth place medal hardcore

i'm going to jinx Will right now and prematurely congratulate him on his eminent victory this year.
way to kick all of our butts!

how dare you :P

IT'S NOT LIKE YOU'RE SUDDENLY GOING TO DROP 13.5 POINTS OR ANYTHING! WHAT ARE THE ODDS??!?!!

seriously tho, congrats. you killed it this year.

i've lost in september before :/ hopefully i can keep it together tho. it'd take a pretty severe kick in all of my ratios to really fuck me at this point

dammit i'd have given it a better run if aj pollock wasn't crippled until a week ago (and then crippled again), and if my pitchers didn't have awful k/bb ratios (despite having high K rates.)

I was having a decent run before my SP's completely imploded in August. After a good first half I figured I had a good shot at a podium position, but the second half has been an all-time fantasy sports disaster for me. HOMERBAiLi crushed everyone this year.

My place every year:

2016: ???, for a while have been 1st
2015: 3rd, for a long while was 1st
2014: 4th, was maybe briefly 1st
2013: 3rd, was 1st for half the year
2008: 14th lol I don't remember this

The point is: I'm definitely not ready to celebrate, EVER, until it's over

Also every year I've traded solid keepers to win and failed. CarGo in 2013; Baez, Chris Davis, Craig Kimbrel 2014; i guess none in 2015 but yeah... Harper in 2016 better fucking buy me that pennant

i tried that two years ago – the keeper sale – and boy did it blow up in my face. this year it's worked out better, but not worked quite enough.

would be p sweet of would could see the standings plotted out over the season.

man. now i really wish i could look at historical standing for our league over the season. would have been fun to visualize that.

THERMO YOU JINXING SON OF A FUCK I'M ONLY UP 8 POINTS NOW

I BETTER NOT LOSE

having a hard time dropping Jose Fernandez. i shoulda done it last night... but, fuck. i can't believe he's gone.

gonna sound dumb and tone-deaf but there is a "NA" slot you can use.

had the same feeling in my keeper league w/ oscar tavares couple years back.

i could kiss you!

Way to go Will – you mopped the floor with us!
I got sort close and then it was a pretty big gap after that.

I feel like i should photoshop up a trophy for you or something. (but i'm lazy)

it was a lot more of a nail biter than i expected. now that i have won one i can finally CHILL (lol jk never)

Congrats Will, you really mopped the floor with the field this year.

is this happening again this year? would it be possible for me to play? i've been in a league the last couple of years but i don't really know anyone in it and it would be more fun to be competing against relative non-strangers.

oh! yes it is happening again! send me your yahoo email addy and i will invite you when i restart the league in a few days.
we'll figure out how to get you set-up with a new team when i create a new thread and find out if everyone is coming back.

also thank you for reminding me about this.

cool. i sent you a webmail, let me know if that doesn't work
