Yea, I picked him up about 1 am. I was surprised to see him there as he had already been picked up in the keeper league. Were you trying to drop a player whose team had already played or whose team was playing at the time? Those players can't be moved until the next days lineup opens which is 8am here.

Yeah, tried to drop a player who had already played. The game was over so didn't think it would cause a problem. Could have done with picking him up, was sure I had him.

I'll know the next time!

Terrible thing to wish for but I really need a closer to go on the DL or I'll have no saves for the year!!

I've lots of closers, hit me up with a trade offer

Any of them 'off limits'? You looking for Batters or Pitchers?

mikemac1

All RP's are up for trade.

Looking for infielders except SS

If you have a 1B for trade I'm interested

I'm not sure he will be as solid in a closing role as Robertson, he Ks less and walks more but I only have 2 'closers' as it is. Santos is filling in for now and I certainly don't trust Valverde to keep the closing gig for the Mets.

My pitcher had more runs, HRs and RBIs than my entire batting line up! Oh dear....

I keep forgetting about this team! Apologies lads, I'll do my best to keep up with it from here on out. Running 3 Fantasy baseball teams is not a great idea! :-p

Benimar

Ubaldo is now on the waiver wire in case anyone wants to deliberately weaken their team! Was bad enough seeing him kill the O's without having to put up with him killing my fantasy team too.

1st meets 2nd in this weeks matchup

Lasts seasons champs Greek God of Walks a few points back in 3rd

How's everyone getting so far?

We'll see how this goes.......honestly don't know how I'm still second with all the injuries

Doing okay, most of my guys are underperforming but happy to be a few games over .500...

That said I'm going to struggle to stay there as I have 3 guys go on the DL since yesterday, Wieters and Sabathia (well he's not much of a loss) and just read that Jose Fernandez is on his way there with an injury to his pitching arm ...and the rumour is it might be his elbow

Benimar

So...this is my third year in the League. My 3 Number 1 picks have been:
2012 - Tulo (Many months on the DL)
2013 - Pujols (Time on the DL and forgot how to hit)
2014 - Goldschmidt (On the DL, almost certainly gone for the season)

Can I trade my 2015 first round pick?? :eek::(

In your defense I was going to take Goldschmidt first overall if I have got that pick this year!

I've had Encarnación, Lawrie, Lind, Pagan and Ryan Zimmerman go down over the last two months. Trying to just piece together a team these days and get to 500.

Congrats to windbreakers on the first perfect 12-0 score all season.

A few players got to 11 but this was the first perfect week

Windbreakers now pushing last seasons champs for 2nd place and a bye week

The battle for 6th place closed a lot last week also, someone might sneak into the playoffs

If I remember rightly you nearly had a perfect 12-0 over me!
That was a bad week...

8-10

Was the 12-0 against me? I can't log in but it's very likely!

After an awful first few weeks playing fantasy baseball for the first time I met my own goal. Good luck to everyone in the playoffs!

Coeus

Missed the playoffs by one point ...looking back at the draft, it wasn't my best. Jose's injury didn't help either. Ah well there is always next year :-)

That said best of luck to those in the championship bracket!

mikemac1

Congrats to Rob and Greek God of Walks on defending their crown.

To win once is impressive and to come back and win again is even better

Back to the drawing board for me, have lost two finals in three years, oh well.

I'm looking forward to next year already, having a 16 man league was much better then just 14

MoyVilla9

Will this be repeated this year?

Almost as remarkable as repeating as champion....

smackbunnybaby

I'm up for this again this year!

Benimar

Yeah, I'm in again.

Yes sure, there seems to be interest again. I'll reactivate the league in the next day or 2 and stick up a new thread...

I'm a novice when it comes to fantasy baseball but a fan of the sport itself. Wouldn't mind joining the league, if possible.

There is a spot open in the keeper league...its a good competitive league so check it out if you are interested!
