August 22, 20187 yr upton to the dl. leake scratched against a struggling astros offense. can you spare a brother some duct tape?
August 22, 20187 yr I will happily welcome back Mike Trout, George Springer and Stephen Strasburg next week for the semi-finals. If I win this year, the winnings plus a gift card from work will pay for my new Beretta A400 20 gauge dove gun that I bought yesterday. Good luck to those still in it.
August 23, 20187 yr "Encarnacion will come off the DL on Thursday" ...except that he came off on Wednesday went 2-4 with 2 HR and 4 RBI. It sucks that my entire lineup locked as soon as the first game of the day had started. I wish they'd change that.
August 26, 20187 yr so the tie breaker for playoff seeding is season h2h, but the playoff tie breaker is highest seed? is that right?
August 26, 20187 yr my team is 5/40 the last two days. i have mookie betts, jose ramirez, manny machado, charlie blackmon, dj lemahieu, and edwin encarnacion. 5/40.
August 26, 20187 yr so the tie breaker for playoff seeding is season h2h, but the playoff tie breaker is highest seed? is that right?Yes, this is correct. Higher seed advances.
August 26, 20187 yr 46 minutes ago, NorthLoop said: Sigh. Good game. Tough to lose on the last inning pitched of the whole week 46 minutes ago, NorthLoop said: Sigh. Good game. Tough to lose on the last inning pitched of the whole week if brett gardner steals a base you win.
August 27, 20187 yr Nope. I'm the higher seed. He'd need a stolen base and a couple dingers Edited August 27, 20187 yr by NorthLoop
August 27, 20187 yr Nah you deserve it. Picking up guys like Kopech at the right time is how you win in this league. Good luck going forward.
August 27, 20187 yr Also having both Cole and Wood get their starts bumped from today. Talk about pulling the rug out from under me. The fantasy gods were laughing at me today.

August 27, 20187 yr I only beat hg because his entire relief staff rebelled. really crazy matchup between us. His offense killed me, but my pitching (and his relief pitching) killed him.
August 27, 20187 yr Congrats on the wild card winners! Crazy close matchups. Updated bracket:Semi-finals: (1) Stay Woke vs (4) Raging Kluber (2) This Team Sucks vs (3) The Mad Fat Chick Killer Payout Info: $150 - Regular Season Champ (best overall record) - BigO $550 - League Champion - TBD $300 - 2nd place - TBD $200 - 3rd place - TBD
August 27, 20187 yr The system doesn’t recognize our wild card so that’s why the semi matchups aren’t correct. I’ll edit when I get to the office.
August 30, 20187 yr Author i am amazed by how shitty both teams are hitting through 3+ days in my matchup with planet houston.
August 30, 20187 yr Double post. My posting skills are about as good as my team's offensive skills. For the record, I have 2 offensive players that I actually drafted. One is my first round pick who has been anything but this year (Correa). I also have the worst offensive ranking in the league in 4 categories, and bottom 2 in all 6. If I somehow make the finals, it's a fucking miracle. Edited August 30, 20187 yr by Planet Houston

September 1, 20187 yr Motherfucker. Koepech gonna get pulled after 2 innings and a rain delay for the second time in his 3 career starts.
September 10, 20187 yr on to the finals, boys! Congrats to BO and Derka. The other semi-final is still fighting for 3rd place money. Dont slack off now.
September 10, 20187 yr i still owe money. as soon as the finals are over, i'll paypal b.o. or derka directly.

September 10, 20187 yr Author how many multi time champions do we have? i know hg has done it, has anyone else? i'm pretty sure this year's winner joins that list.
September 11, 20187 yr stupid enjay leaving the league and taking all of the historical info with him. thanks a lot, guy.
September 13, 20187 yr unrelated to our league, but i did return to work today for the first time in a year, so that was pretty great for me. figured since i'd already shared some about that i'd share today's kickass update.
September 18, 20187 yr Author any of you guys in this league interested in the NBA? looks like we're going to have a couple of open spots in our fantasy basketball league that's set up pretty much just like this league.

Anyway, a couple of you guys should join and keep the larry going.
September 19, 20187 yr also, i know we've brought this up before, but next year we seriously need to all pay an extra $10 and get a trophy for this league. Or hell, there's no reason we can't all just do it right now. This league is too legit and has been running for too long to not have a trophy. The Rickerson Trophy, given to the winner of the Shaggy/Surly Tampa Bay Rays Season Thread Fantasy League. It's what's right. Edited September 19, 20187 yr by Goo Punch
