I have replaced Trea Turner with Andrelton Simmons.

Sad!

Alex Wood is the best waiver pitcher pickup I've ever had.

It'd be nice if he wasn't doing it for my real team's greatest rival, but them's the breaks.

I'm on the verge of dropping him. Not even so much about his repeatedly elbow injuries now, but because the Giants will never be in a position for him to get another save this year.

They're playing much better at the moment and Bum will be back after the all-star break. They're not going to contend or anything, but they can't possibly be as bad as they were in April and May, where literally everyone on the team besides Buster was performing below their career norms.

Is Cespedes droppable in a 12 team H2H? I've got to clear space for Brandon McCarthy coming off the DL, and already have Stanton, Upton, Mallex Smith, and Brett Gardner in my OF. It seems like his glass hamstrings are getting the best of him since he came from his DL stint.

Wait a couple-3 days and there's probably a 50% chance Cespedes can take that empty DL spot.

I'm glad someone posted about dropping Cespedes. I'd just kind of been auto-starting without looking instead of playing Dickerson and/or Souza. Now he's perma-benched until he gets it together (or his next DL stint)

Cueto will be traded to a contender and put up some Ws. Also, he missed all of spring training and it's affected his control, or so he said today. So once he gets that figured out, he'll be useful again.

That's the bullshit I tell myself, at least.

tough to say who

doolittle's better, but madson and dusty have history

It stands to reason that the odd man out might get Holds, since everyone else in the Nats bullpen is terrible.

do your guys' leagues have a policy for accidental drops? i just accidentally dropped kimbrel :(

i mean, it's obvious i did not mean to do so, especially since i picked up claudio in the same transaction. yes, it's my fault, and yes, i should have paid attention, i know. i was on my phone and just didn't realize it. at the same time, i feel like how obviously bad a move this is outweights that, especially since i'm very active in the league and have won it multiple times and never, ever would have made meant to do this.

thoughts?

Tell the commissioner? You obviously didn't mean to drop a top 5 closer. If I was commissioner I'd fix as long as you messaged immediately after it happened

I dropped Cargo on the 4th of July in a 12 man league. He has sat in FA ever since.

Someone still owns him in our goon league that has 4 OF spots though!

Thanks for starting a game at 10PM in the loving rain, MLB.

That is the Nationals decision. And since the Giants don't play at Washington again and they're already playing a doubleheader tomorrow, what else could they do?

God help me, I want to drop Miguel Cabrera.

I'd rather they just Dl'd him for a month and he came back rested and healed for the back end of the fantasy playoffs.

I did luck out on nabbing Buxton off FA.



" posted:

Byron Buxton told reporters Thursday that he's dealing with a left hamate bone injury.
Not good. Buxton suffered the hand/wrist injury on a hard swing Wednesday night and he underwent an MRI on Thursday morning, the results of which should be available by the middle of Thursday afternoon's series finale against the White Sox. If it's a broken hamate bone, the rising star will be out at least 4-6 weeks. Zack Granite is playing center field and batting ninth Thursday versus Chicago right-hander Miguel Gonzalez.

Do you guys lock the eliminated teams once playoffs start? That's what I do in football. I've never commissioned a baseball league before.

HGH and Centaur Paintings had another successful season of bad team names. I just paypal'ed out money to the winners.

Thanks again for running that. I was able to squeak by Pussy Boss in the semis, then lost by a single strikeout and win in the finale. Shoulda streamed more!
