I could have won this week, but instead I tied because I left Andrew Miller on the bench in favor of a starter who wasn't playing today.

Update: I won anyway because my opponent started 11 hitters on Sunday when we only have 10 slots, so all his hitting stats for the day were disqualified.

I dropped Bedrosian, shuffled my DL around, and added Knebel in one league earlier today after taking another look at Feliz' stats, so I feel pretty smart right now.

Knebel has a 14.50 K/9 so far this year and may very well just run away with the job.

I just got rid of Melancon for Kyle Freeland, still have Kintzler and Reed for now.


In other pitching news, Cueto finally pitched well (2ER, 7IP) but his team lost 9-0. Pitching's been a weird thing this year. Now's the Rockies chance!

I've also managed to scrape together a pretty decent team in my keeper league:

Sitting at 9-0-1 thanks to some trades a few weeks in to the season with panicking owners and being aggressive with FAAB bids. Pretty sure I drafted less than half this team.

Seager is at 7$ and keepable +1$ each year. No one I'm giving is really keepable.
