Zack Wheeler is available in a twelve teamer, picking him up is a definite "yes," right?

I know his ERA is ugly right now, but the Yahoo blurb said he was still touching 98 so it's not a velo issue.

Scherzer what is you doing?

Might need him to pinch hit!

What about his elbow? You hit the ball with a bat, not your arms.

After bouncing back and forth against my opponent my team had a HUGE weekend, I won 8-0-2 and jumped from third to first.

Hell yeah.

I went from down 0-13-1 last week on Thursday to winning 8-6-0. :feelsgood:

I was down either 2-7 or 3-7 almost all week, but close, had a monster Sunday and won 7-2. Went from three games behind first to a four game lead.

Randomly checked and I have 5 of the top 25 overall players in my league. Plus seven others in the top-100.

Scherzer, #5, first round
JOSH BELL, #9, FA
Rendon, #14, fourth round
Hader, #16, ninth round
Muncy, #24, eleventh round

With an even distribution in a 12 teamer, you'd have an average of 8.3 top-100 players. Pretty pleased with that.

gently caress Josh Bell's 0 HR and 5 RBI in the last month.

The top of my league (5x5 H2H) has been super competitive this year. After spending most of the year in first place, the last five or six weeks have seen 1-3 trading positions.

I'm in second, five games back of first and a game ahead of third going into the week. Halfway through the week first place looks like they're going to go 6-4, 7-3, same for me and third place jumps out HUGE to a 10-0 week.

I thought I was going to miss the bye week (six team playoffs), then first place freefalls to 2-8, third place holds at 10-0 and someway somehow I wound up winning 10-0 as well to take over first place and hold a one game lead.

Second regular season title in a row, looking for a second consecutive playoff victory as well.

The OF wire is poo poo in my league and I'll happily roll the dice with him over Anthony Santander.

Out in the semifinals ending my bid at back to back regular and post season championships.

I'm still happy with a regular season repeat and final four playoff loss, since in the 9 years prior to that I was always in the back half of the league.

Now I gotta get this drat trophy engraved for this year's winner and send it to him :smith:

Pitching was an absolute fuckshow this year, and the end-of-season roster choices really did seem to get brought to a new level.

If the ball stays juiced the market inefficiency is getting middling, inning-eating pitchers with sub-4.00 ERAs mid-late in the draft instead of spending too much outside of the few real aces.

Same for relievers and saves if your league does holds or NSVH.
