How many of them had him getting demoted in the first week? He only got two starts… went 2/4 his last, and the next day sent to AAA.

Strider’s elbow is barking… that would be a rough break.

Yep… MRI today. Great time to have traded away Hicks.

I should be just fine, though - all I need to do is pick up some useless bums and have them pitch like prime Koufax, like you.

Losing your first round pick always blows.

I took Bieber with my first pick in my money keeper league (pick 3, round 6 - 5 keepers / 12 teams), was feeling good for a week!

Your relatable anecdote is losing… Bieber? lol

In another one of my leagues, some idiot just dropped Bibee. So I have a shot at picking him up, possibly not as damaged from the Strider loss.

Maybe that’s what this league is missing - need more idiots.

Any ideas what Strider’s “not TJ” might have been?

I'll be excited when Acuna no longer has a .673 OPS.

I’m not going to whine too much about my 3rd Round Pick, Royce Lewis, who is habitually injured and was a thoughtful gamble to begin with.

I know we whine a lot about our Top Prospects (Taveras, Reyes) not panning out, but I think of the Twinkies and their bad luck with Top Draft Picks (Buxton #2 - 2012, Lewis #1 - 2017). The fans endured terrible baseball and are rewarded with guys who can’t stay on the field…

You have 41 transactions. Cardinals4Life has 1. That’s awesome. sdaltons using the Cardinals’ method of hope as a strategy, just 3 moves but at the back end of the standings.

I’m also winning the race to zero FAB dollars.

Strangely, we have not heard more from Dazepster regarding the miscarriage of justice that prevented him from claiming the worst hitter in the majors.

Who was that about again? I recall being mostly out of pocket for that.

He was (upset) that he didn’t claim Scott while he was freely available to everyone.

I've now figured out that FantasyPros will give you their projections for actual production in each of our categories (instead of that weird % measurement) for the rest of the season.

I'm going to wait until the end of the month (because it will be easier to calculate the rate stats, e.g., your current ERA * 1/6 + your projected rest of season ERA * 5/6 to get an expected total ERA for the season) to update the new expectations/predictions at that point.

Jesus christ thats a lot of moves already. I usually lead the league in transactions in my fantasy football league where we get as many as we want. In our baseball league we are limited to 3 a week.
