Stealthy going for the Hail Mary. If he were to come back, it would have to be the most points on any day.
Good luck.

chico is putting up a 139 spot right now with players to go.. Unfortunately for stealthy I grabbed all the best SP's going tomorrow (at least in my opinion). Now I just have to determine, since I'll be down ~10-15 if I want to go quantity or quality.

Thats ok I just need warm bodies. Just picked up Rodgers who was just named starter for the astros tomorrow. 10 ERs in 4.2IP and never pitched more than 42 pitches in a big league game.

look i had to play you with my best and third best pitcher so what am I supposed to say. That i'm going to win? I left it to you to crow on a regular basis. By that is reverse jinx at least what i'm hoping.

Up for the first time in nearly 2 weeks, one day left and that's the post?
At least when this ends tomorrow I don't have to see chico saying he's going to lose everyday. His scrub squad of pitching misfits pulled horseshoes out their ass all day but Mad Max and Verlander going tomorrow, Manaea, then whomever I decide to use of my other mediocre guys (depending on line ups)

Haha I know what it is, gathered as much 3 weeks ago when you were up 100 on stealthy and saying you'd lost.
We'll see how tomorrow goes. Good luck!

Good, hopefully he takes a loss to counteract his relief win the other day. Then again, if Madson comes in there is a very good chance of a blown save. With Dull pitching the 8th it looks like they may go that route, for some reason.

You were up early enough to grab Blach. Had they announced it earlier I would have grabbed him to bench him, would feel much more confident up 20ish.

Going to be a fun final day with all the games starting within 20 minutes of each other. Have some decisions to make but between Scherzer and Verlander, I can't ask for a better 1-2 punch from my SP's.

I'd assume Verlander will go tomorrow. Since the Jays and O's are tied for the 2 WC spots, with the Tigers 1.5 back, the Tigers have to win both games they have left and the Jays or O's have to lose. Regardless of what Seattle does, the Tigers can't lose again.
I'd assume that Verlander will go tomorrow and if they win, and the Jays or O's lose, then Fulmer will go on Monday in the makeup game. However, there is a chance they swap Fulmer and Verlander, but I think you have to go with your best SP on Sunday to force the game Monday.
If the M's win tonight, Tigers win their last 2, and the Jays and O's lose tomorrow, there will be a 4 team playoff for the 2 WC spots

Lucked into another reliever W.
So down 20 going into tomorrow. I said I thought 900 would be needed to win, and looking close. That's assuming you don't pull 5 more relief wins out tomorrow.

Agreed with sharker and Astro, good season. Quite a grind! Hopefully we can get together next season as well.
And to the winners, make with the pity points to the fourth place finisher

Agree with all here. Great 1st season. We all learned a lot about settings/etc. With a few tweaks we should have a great year next year. I'll be looking forward to it.
I agree too. The league grew on me and by the time I figured out how to organize a daily game plan without taking forever it was too late. Then I was just playing spoiler or at least trying.
In the end it was fun
We'll see where we're all at next year and if things line up we'll do it again.
Congrats Astro

I'm going to make one as soon as ESPN opens up their registration (kind of stupid it isn't open yet).
