This is the point of the season I am glad I am in rotisserie and not H2H as I sit atop my big money league with a 31 point lead over the 2nd place team with 138 of a possible 160 points.

Victor Robles got called up, must add in keeper leagues if you're out of it

Crawford got called up too.

Not on the same level as Robles, but someone for a bad team to stash.

Also, Matt Olson has been tearing the cover off the ball. He's been considered a fringe prospect for contact issues, but the A's traded Alonso in the middle of a career year to make room for him, and he's hit like 400 home runs in the last month.

This is the part of the year where I hate H2H, because even though I am the top team in the league, one bad week could make that mean nothing.

Right now, I'm leading in my semi-final matchup 11-2-1. As soon as the first game starts today, I want to pickup a few people for next week. Here is my current roster.

C: Ramos 1B: Hoskins 2B: Cano SS: Bregman 3B: Rendon OF: Yelich OF: Buxton OF: Upton OF: Kiermaier DH: Santana UTIL: S. Marte BN: LeMahieu

SP: Bumgarner, Tanaka, CMart, Berrios, Junis, Clevinger, Nola, Gausman, L. Weaver, Richards RP: Osuna, Diaz, Giles

We get 4 transactions a week. This is what I'm thinking.

1: Drop Ramos, pick up Chirinos 2: Drop Junis, pick up Reynaldo Lopez 3: Drop ?, pick up Woodruff

Any thoughts on who to drop for Woodruff? Do these look like smart moves?

Seriously I don't know what to do. Do I bench Hill? The guy I'm up against hasn't touched his team in months but he still has Greg Holland, Craig Kimbrel, Anthony Swarzak, and Pat Neshek in his relief. I just feel like one of them will come in and pitch a blank inning and I'll lose, ILL LOSE

Down 4-5-1, the only things that can change are my R (down 1), HR (down 1) and RBI (down 3) with my Lonnie Chisenhall left to go tonight.

If I'd left DEE loving GORDON in my UTIL spot when he didn't start the game, I would have gotten his solo home run (his god drat second of the year), tied HR and RBI and won the matchup 4-3-3 already, climbing back in everything all week after getting JD Martinez'd on Sunday.

gently caress this poo poo. That's gotta be one of the worst bad-beats of all time fantasy history, a DEE GORDON home run.

I once lost in the finals of a fantasy basketball league on literally the last shot of the season, a three point shot by marcus morris (e: or maybe markieff) at the buzzer in a game his team was losing by like seven points :colbert:

I won a championship in 2014 on the last batter of the last game of the season when the Cardinals brought in Jason Motte to get get one out, lowering my ERA by enough to give me a 6-4 win. I don't even know what he was doing on my team, he wasn't their closer.

Same here. I got a bye after an 11-1 win last week, but my team has fallen apart in recent weeks. JoRamirez and Nunez are hurt, Bumgarner has fallen off and I have no idea what he hell Wood and Darvish are doing. DeJong has come plummeting back to Earth too.

It's going to take a miracle for me to win the semis.

Weird thought I had - for Otani, how would fantasy play him?

As of now if a position player pitches nothing happens. But if he is a SP or a closer do they have two versions of him in the draft? Do you play him in one of the slots and just skip out on the other part? Do they allow him to count for both positions when only playing one?
