How about six, maybe seven?

have a pending trade out there but also looking for other good starting pitching for my 1b/3b/of (not harper), get at me w any proposals~

How about six, maybe seven?

Definitely seven.

let's check in on my draft day team

1. (10) Jacob deGrom (NYM - SP) - not bad
2. (13) Kyle Schwarber (ChC - C,OF) - dreadful
3. (32) Jon Lester (ChC - SP) - halfway decent
4. (35) Carlos Carrasco (Cle - SP) - good
5. (54) Andrew Benintendi (Bos - OF) - someday he'll be better
6. (57) Yoan Moncada (CWS - 3B) - NA
7. (76) Anthony Rendon (Was - 3B) - good
8. (79) Carlos Santana (Cle - 1B,OF) - bad production at 1B, dropped
9. (98) Dustin Pedroia (Bos - 2B) - power's gone, dropped
10. (101) Dansby Swanson (Atl - SS) - terrible, dropped
11. (120) Jeurys Familia (NYM - RP) - suspended, dropped
12. (123) Lorenzo Cain (KC - OF) - not great, dropped
13. (142) Garrett Richards (LAA - SP) - injured, dropped
14. (145) Jedd Gyorko (StL - 1B,2B,3B,SS) - good
15. (164) Carlos Rodón (CWS - SP) - injured, dropped
16. (167) Ryon Healy (Oak - 1B,3B) - not great then, dropped
17. (186) David Phelps (Mia - SP,RP) - whatever, dropped
18. (189) Carlos Martínez  (StL - SP) - good
19. (208) Aroldis Chapman  (NYY - RP) - injured
20. (211) A.J. Pollock  (Ari - OF) - injured
21. (230) Starling Marte  (Pit - OF) - suspended, dropped
22. (233) Xander Bogaerts  (Bos - SS) - good, not great

7 of my top 8 ranked batters on yahoo are free agent pickups, it's a miracle that I'm in the middle of the pack

Bogart was leading the league in AVG up until a few weeks ago – and so far has a career high OPS (.849) (only 2 HR but 8-0 in SB). maybe not MVP-level great, but he's doing pretty damn well. Esp for a guy you got at #233!

and thank you for Cain, btw!

ha ha you're welcome, i don't feel too bad since i dropped him for Avisail Garcia. i figured Cain might not win me the league this year either way, I had to start doing hail marys with my OF after Marte was suspended.

funny thing tho i picked up Cain on waivers a couple seasons back when I won the league. perhaps he will help you become more "able" to win this year too.

i approve of that pun.

i was wondering when someone was going to grab cozart

well, my Urias gambit is officially a failure.

A twelve point, one day turnaround at the top of the standings!

Ya, I did not expect to wake up to that.

i knew it was coming, just not when.

i've almost unlocked a new trophy for my case: the all-waiver wire starting lineup.

please tell me that's a real thing

maybe it's a secret trophy

judge and bellinger weren't drafted this season, imagining they'll go 1&2 next year maybe...?

Bellinger is three years younger so he's probably the clear #1.

really? given judge's better this year and his excellence was perhaps more "expected" i'd be taking him above bellinger. also bellinger's swing fucking scares me. look at his legs when he swings hard.

Seven on the DL.

my team is open for business!

trade bait:

Smoak
Schoop
Rendon
Pollock
Marte
Conforto
Souza
Gennett
Morrison
Lester
Carrasco
Severino
Chapman

there are others, too. i just didn't mention them because who the hell wants Schwarber now.

none of these guys are keepers, fwiw. I'm looking for at least one (1) good 27-29 keeper for next season and perhaps a <27 keeper.

off the market (barring an astonishing offer): Benintendi, Bogaerts, Carlos Martinez, DeGrom.

I've been waiting all season to trade Kershaw if my team was out of it, and he's injured :(

SIX regulars on the DL plus two assholes day to day.

Aaaand my lead is gone

Another change at the top. And my team has its highest point total since June!

I don't understand what happened this morning. I had a pretty typical day; not bad... drop 6.5 points.

another drop! time to fucking panic!!

:-)

oh it's on!

whoa, i'm in spitting distance again?

Five points separating first from third. Best pennant race our league has had in years!

the last week my team is hitting a robust .176 (34-for-197) w/5 HR, 17 RBI, 9 XBH, 1 SB.

but hey i scored 23 runs.

More flip-flopping at the top!

Finally all my best players are healthy and kicking ass (too little too late).

Order is restored.
For now.

Four or five lead changes later, and it's a tie at the top!

My offense has done nothing this month ... hoping for a great stretch run from both my pitchers and hitters was too much to ask. Not to say that I could have won, but it's still frustrating.

didnt even notice! am in a semifinal h2h struggle to the death in another league rn

i want off this crazy roller coaster.

Is there a Yahoo medal for seven SPs on one day or

Grabbing spot starters for the final few days of the season has completely backfired for me so far ...

Two points separating first and second! (yes I am living the end of the season vicariously through managers with better teams).

Tomorrow I am firing my entire coaching staff.

fun season ;)

Congrats dude! Some quality late season management there.

thx !
2 straight 2nds for you therm? that is impressive in itself~
