YOUR OTHER GLORPING FANTASY LEAGUES!!!

Uh, family or not that is fucking laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaame

But wait, second time he's done this, or 13th?

second time i've caught him doing it. first time was years ago when matt kemp mysteriously migrated from the bench after hitting a bomb. i called him out on it on fb, he told me he had no clue what i was talking about, i gave him the benefit of the doubt and convinced myself i looked at his roster too early the first time.

13th time he's done it this season according to the TranLog. i didn't know until just now that it specified via the "(By LM)" thing so i just did a ctrl-f. he did it 10 times last year, and that seems to be as far back as the logs go. maybe a few of those were more or less kosher but i know for a fact that the one he just did wasn't.

i should point out that he's won the entire league 3 out of the last 5 years

last LM transaction before this was exactly 2 weeks ago in the semifinals, right after they got close

Lame. Time to find a new league.

i won -- second year in a row i beat him for it. his cheating resulted in him tying me in RBI but i still won 7-2. at one point i was winning 9-1 with all starting pitching categories. had 10 starts yesterday and 10 starts today, mostly garbage scrap guys, and they combined for a 3.16 ERA and a 1.28 WHIP along with 8 wins and 99 Ks. that's freakishly good isn't it? would've been even better if i'd only picked jose berrios.

not sure what to do now without making thanksgiving really awkward. and my damn dad's in the league now. and HIS dad! that's the weirdest part.

ask him if you can have the password to change your lineup after games have already started

If he gives it to you, use it to completely annihilate him

At dinner, mention that you are master of both fantasy and reality

also, you can tell him about the vastly superior keeper league – with its amazing, handsome commissioner – you're thinking of joining.

Thanksgiving is gonna be amazing this year!

serious suggestions:
* ask if you can have a turn being the administrator
* say you're too busy to do it this season and then sign up in a different league

I quit fbb

update: still have to draft my dad's team

never escaping this hell

Had one of the best offensive days I can ever remember:

14/35 (.400)
7 RS
6 HR
11 RBI
1 SB

I should mention this is a Deep League...

one of my lineups on fanduel tonight is 14,092nd out of 14,117. it is the maybe the worst i have ever done at anything.

6 home runs is p crazy.

My Catcher situation is so dire I'm considering picking up the Rangers back-up/every-5-days-or-so Catcher as my full-time backstop.

I just traded for Machado - only cost me Bautista, so im not too worried about what I gave up. But does anyone think he can turn his season around?

Historically he has a better 1st half than 2nd... :-(

he's toast stick a fork in him

Ugh.

well his BABIP is crazy low – his hard-hit rate is as high as ever, along with walk rate. the only thing that troubling is his K rate has gone up by about 3%. i still like his odds of bouncing back ROS.

so my other league is AL-only and i have the top waiver priority. Is Duda really the best thing that's going NL-to-AL this trade deadline?!

one of the things i insist on doing for some reason is making sure each of my teams has a new team name every year and this year i had one i was pretty unhappy with from the draft until now (Mahtook Ones (Pt II)) but the other day I was walking and I had just the most gloriously stupid idea for a name that I cannot shake so I present to you all the logo for my 4th (!?!) team this year,

other three teams -

WHIP Priest (almost changed team name this year but one more year bc rip mark e)
Votto Trap House
Steamed Phams

my other team: Gose in the Snell

This year I ran an auction league draft for the first time. I've been wanting to do an auction forever. So fun!

We're using Fangraphs points scoring, which is insane. No RBIs, no runs, no pitcher wins ...

which platform?

Yahoo!

My other league is auction too. It’s awesome except for the fact anyone who misses the draft is fucked.

my team name next season: Mad Boone Rising.

I’m stealing that.

not stealing if i'm sharing it!

So that makes two no hitters for my other team this year!

Someone in one of my leagues dropped Eddie Rosario a couple days ago:

2018: .285/.309/.529 9HR 4SB

For this league's stats, he was rated 140 in preseason and is currently rated 43 for the season.

His trend is downward, but not horrible:
Last 30 days rating: 17
Last 14 days rating: 336
Last 7 days rating: 445

My other eligible outfielders are Whit Merrifield, Dee Gordon (DL), Teoscar Hernandez, Mark Trumbo, Nelson Cruz (DL?), Daniel Descalso.

This is a no brainer right?

3/4 today! it's a sign!
i reached for him in my other league. he's been streaky but worth every penny.

Lol, now Trumbo is heading to the DL so I'm gonna pull the trigger.

^^^^

11-27 since I picked him up, currently rated #39 overall.

Three homers for Rosario today!

!!! Pick up of the season for me so far...

my glorping pick for me so far would be Gleyber Torres.

i'm in a shallow auction league where after the draft i was like "lol my team is going to be the best"

currently floating in 3rd of 8 teams, and fully 33% (8 of 24) of my squad is on the DL: donaldson, belt, pollock, archer, kershaw, syndergaard, darvish, robbie ray (i said it was a shallow league)

like... shallow or not, i can't drop a single one of thes fucking guys

Who's on the WW/FA list? I find it hard you'd be too attached to Archer & Darvish...

By ysahoo's season ranking, there's Mikolas, Wacha, Folty, Mengden, Gio G, Berrios, Cahill, Ryu, Newcomb, Porcello... All better than them this year, but not exactly inspiring.

Archer was dropped in my 10-team AL only league (I snatched him up); but if he's droppable there you're probably safe to turf him.

done, let's see what berrios can do. i was initially gonna just ride it out because i was killing my innings limit, but when half of your pitchers go down that head start begins to erode real quick
