me!
I just returned yesterday from a weeklong spring break in the mountains and was very surprised to see my team is hanging in there despite my top 3 players playing a total of zero games and a rash of injuries.
I was able to hike up to a nearby peak to our campsite that I was able to get a bar of phone coverage and set my lineup and try to pick some triage scraps off the waiver wire.

It’s not fantasy baseball if your bench isn’t out hitting the entire league.

lol i know this goes in the other glorping fantasy leagues thread but your bench is either A) outhitting the rest of the league or B) entirely made up of IR/injured players. my bench for week 3 in other league is currently Bell, Olson, Taylor, Donaldson, Jimenez, K Lewis, Mondesi, Grisham

He’s doing well? Drafted him last year with high hopes but he was a serious let down.

You're welcome to Byron Buxton, who for the first year since he came up is on neither of my fantasy baseball teams. By letting him go I have freed him to be really really good at baseball

Well I give up. Max Fried died on me yesterday. Plesac and McCullers imploded today. This fantasy season has gone about as good as the last year of my life. I give up.

and is it just truncating, with the "..." at the end? it's showing up fine on both my phone and desktop.
sorry for the questions, part of signing up for the testing was providing feedback.

How are your keepers doing?
Juan Soto - IL for 2 weeks (?)Adalberto Mondesi - IL for ??? Hasn't swung a bat since spring trainingKyle Tucker - Mendoza OBP(!), enjoying a 0-14 slump including 3 games in DenverNick Castellanos - started red hot but currently SUSP for flexing after scoring post-HBP (didn't touch anyone, had his hands behind his back)Matt Olson - verrrrry slow start but I have nothing to complain about at all (except for a CS today)
― Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Thursday, 22 April 2021 02:28 (three years ago) link
Lindor: SLG .195Albies: SLG .333Bryant (my lone ray of sunlight, in his final keepable year): SLG .623Pearson: DL, working his way backSoroka: DL and, i quote, "not good"
keeper hopefulls... Robles: SLG .255; Kelenic: NA; Plesac: imploding with a 6.75 ERA and finally max Fried: DL with an 11.45 ERA.
my team is a disaster wrapped in a catastrophe.

nola - excellentgiolito - very good except for his one terrible start against bostonbaez - pretty much as expected - very low avg/OBP but good HR producer and surprising source of stealsalonso - slow start but the mets have only played like half their games so farpaddack - pretty good, trending better in his last couple of starts, still has a very dumb haircut
the keepers have not been the problem for me, my high draft picks have not been producing to expectations
