Firefighters vs Millenials to get last place in Wild High will likely go down to the end of the season :munch:

It's funny because they both still in playoff contention because Wild Low is so bad they're both only 1 game behind the Flowers

So far 1 of the three Peanuts is in the top-3 idols. There is only one more inter-game window left, will be interesting to see how much movement happens later this hour.

Peanuts Bong and Holloway are up to 6 and 7. But I'm guessing a fair number of people don't follow things closely enough to go for the Peanut idol thing. Jessica will likely remain on top.

I specifically picked Jaylen before I'd ever heard of the whole thing because it's so very splorts to idolize a dead player. I literally don't care about the bonuses that come from idols. I'm here for the shenanigans, not Number Goes Up.

I like Crabs in a walk for the whole thing, with first round upsets by Garages and Lovers over Pies and Jazz Hands whose best players are SHELLED. Tigers a good dark horse this year, they've been quietly good.

Jessica Telephone was a key component to their offense, so skipping her at bats absolutely devastated their ability to get runs.

Also, I haven't confirmed this, but I'm pretty having a player shelled means you're effectively down one on defense. We're not sure how it's calculated, so I'd hard to say, but JT was also an above average defensive player for the Pies.

Edit: I was wrong, apparently JT had a ground out and I just missed accordingly to the stats folk.

Offseason blaseball, like basketball, is the best part. Can't wait for the Tacos to miraculously only win one blessing and get the one that steals Nagomi Mcdaniel, who is in a shell and will likely be stolen after this season.

I wonder if Nagomi and JT's stats would still count toward the betting line. The Tacos with Nagomi being favored in most games while technically being worse, would be a hoot.

I'm a Fridays fan. How should I vote? EPT looks like the best option for such a lousy team but wouldn't it only apply for like the last 10 games of the season? Or should I dump votes into one of the blessings that steals a good player?
