^ Alright thanks.

I went against 1 of my gut feelings and not picking up Richard

He would of helped out my era and whip alot (as of now at least seeing how its only the 6thinning)

If i can keep my era down and still win Wins and Ks I should be in good position.

Ohlendorf.

I hope you didn't pick up Sowers. Told you about the swinging A's.

 

[scuse7]

So %%+!%% my seasons over

 

[paul is on tilt]

My season might be over tomorrow. I'm down 4-6. I'm tied in runs, down in wins by 1, down by 1 in Ks, and not too far away in ERA and WHIP because Ihave 4 pitchers going for me tomorrow. Yovanni Gallardo vs HOU, Ubaldo Jimenez @ ARI, Robinson Tejada @ CHW, and Randy Wolf vs SF. My opponent has 3 pitchersgoing for him so it's going to be tough.

Please team, come through for me.

 

[paul is on tilt]

Alright! I'm moving on to the finals. My pitchers finally came through for me.

Anybody else advance to the finals?

 

[supersic97]

Anyone know how they break ties in yahoo baseball??

4-4 tie

i'll find out tomorrow for sure....suspense is killing me.

 

[paul is on tilt]

ERA is the tie breaker. If ERA is tied, then I'm lost on that one. There is a way to find out and I read the list a few years back, but I forgot.

Nah I didn't I picked up maholm

lol

I lost though

Was a back and forth mathcup, and my team just didn't show up Sunday. Was such a CLOSE matchup, heres the final numbers. Paid $50, took home a total of$150 ($100 for 1st place reg seaosn, $50 2nd overall) Winner got $450 that should of been mine

Oh well what can you do. Heres the final numbers. If i got 1 more run/sb fromAramais at 8 and wainwright got the win, would of tied. (commish claimed no tiebreakers in final, 5-5 6-6 = $250 each person) His pitching SHOWED up on Sunday.3 pitchers i think 17 innings for 2 earned runs and 3 wins. My batting just didn't come through this week. Each week i was putting 30-15-40 .300 .900easily each week. I think i was #1 in all hitting catagoies and #2 in sb for the entire year

I'm on the left

I'm having the same dilemma with Edwin Jackson. You think I should start him in his next start against Cleveland?

Yeah, I ended up starting Edwin Jackson. Got a good performance from him. Nice!

Question: In Yahoo, if you have a transaction limit per week, for the 2nd week of finals, does that reset back to zero?


Like this week, I can make a total of 5 transactions. I already used 2 of 5. Next week, will it return back to 0 of 5? I want to maximize the moves I make.

 

[paul is on tilt]

Jermaine Dye went 3 for 4 yesterday with 2 HRs.

Is he back? Is he worth picking up?

 

[paul is on tilt]

So I guess no one checks this thread anymore?

 

[travisjmu]

J Dye is still on my squad, got my league locked up, playing the bench tomorrow

 

[paul is on tilt]

I can't get Jermaine Dye. I ran out of transactions for this week. I ended up dropping Pedro Martinez for Clayton Kershaw.

Kershaw was dropped because of an injury, then came out of the pen a couple times. I just jumped at the opportunity to snag him. I think he's facing PIT,too, so I'm liking the matchup. I couldn't pass it up.

I didn't like the Pedro @ MIL matchup. Pedro hasn't thrown off a mound and will be facing a Brewer lineup at Miller Park. I just dropped Pedro rightthen and there. I don't even want to risk it.


But I got this question...

end of season standings updates are always horrible. it's still not updated.

 

[paul is on tilt]

So I got the answer to my question on the previous page, the transaction limit does not reset in the 2nd week of the championship matchup. Damn, I wasted allmy transactions. I was banking on getting an answer to that question, but I never got it.

 

[birdsiview]

I had the best team in my league by far the whole way. Came in first then in the second round I played this guy who had his friend drop all his players so hecan pick them up. Needless to say his all star squad kicked my *+% and the commissioner won't do a damn thing about it. Complete BS.
