July 15, 20241 yr I don't need starting pitchers, so both Blanco and Taj with his obscene K/9 are available. I'm looking to package them and whatever else for something including a legit power bat.
July 15, 20241 yr They took a Westlake kid in first round (18th overall) https://www.statesman.com/story/sports/high-school/baseball/2024/07/14/theo-gillen-mlb-draft-2024-westlake-texas-high-school-baseball/74403796007/ Edited July 15, 20241 yr by n64ra
July 16, 20241 yr Cedanne is top 10 right now. Carroll also won’t be bad all year. And marsh/duran are solids. In fact all my team is available.
July 18, 20241 yr i could use: SS, OF, + an elite SP. somebody blow me away for Shohei. and add in one of my really-good-but-not-elite SP while you’re at it. shohei is essentially yordan x2, and he only takes up one spot on your roster. the clock is ticking. surely someone here needs an offensive juggernaut. let’s dance.

July 29, 20241 yr it’s either the two division winners + the next four teams or the top two in each division + the next two teams. either way it’s six.

August 17, 20241 yr We have to discuss it every year because for some reason it's set up incorrectly every year.

August 21, 20241 yr apparently nomaaa’s pitchers only throw perfect games now. keller and manaea combined so far for 11 innings, 3 hits, 0 bb, 15 k’s.

August 26, 20241 yr there was a blissful 6 minute period yesterday when i was 4-6-2, and then it all went back to shit. now it looks like there are 8 teams fighting for 6 spots, and nobody has clinched a bye. let's go.
September 2, 20241 yr Author looks like i fucked up the schedule this season fellas. working on a solution.
September 2, 20241 yr Author unfortunately there isn't a one size fits all solution but I will defer to the majority. Week 22 is typically reserved for the play-in wild card round. with the two winners advancing to play the two bye week teams in a 2-week semifinal. Option 1 (which gets my vote): Week 23 - 1 week wild card round (2 div winners get bye. next 4 teams with the best win % are the WC teams) Week 24 - 1 week semifinal (#1 seed plays the lowest seed remaining) Week 25 - 1 week championship I personally like this option as we play weekly matchups all season, no need to change it to two weeks now. Option 2: only 4 teams make the playoffs and we stick with the 2 week semifinal and 2 week finale. Yes its the same song and dance every season but I forgot to check it this year. My apologies to all. What say the rest of you?
September 2, 20241 yr Option 1 if I win 8-4. Otherwise 2. Either way I lose to DerkaBut really, 1 seems closest to right.
September 2, 20241 yr Author Oh wait! ESPN has upgraded their setting logic! Option 3! Week 23 - 1 week wild card round (2 div winners get bye. next 4 teams with the best win % are the WC teams) Week 24 - 1 week semifinal (#1 seed plays the lowest seed remaining) Week 25 - TWO week championship (I can edit this setting now)
September 2, 20241 yr Option 1 makes the most sense. Option 3 runs the risk of having top players not play because it's the last week of the season. Option 2 is not an option at all. Dick move for even suggesting it.

Payout reminder: $300 for regular season winner - (Neil and Theodore's Card Shop) $700 for playoff winner $250 for playoff runner up $150 for playoff third place Will send out Venmo assignments once the playoffs wrap up.
September 3, 20241 yr Good job, good effort. Fell out of the playoffs in the final week. Likely due to managerial duncery.
