Heroebal 45 Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Am I wrong in thinking that anytime a team pulls a pitcher early when they've only given up 3 runs or less then I hope that team gets crushed after. Unless it's due to injury. I think next year I may dodge LAD pitchers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SpecialFNK 1,492 Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 3 yahoo public leagues, every team I picked Trea Turner. 2 leagues I picked Matt Olson. okay I can deal with injuries. my SP has been a mess. all 3 leagues I have Max Scherzer and Walker Buehler. 2 leagues with Rich Hill, 2 leagues with Kenta Maeda. Dodgers pitchers were supposed to be good! I expected these starters to dominate so that I could stream other starters for K's and W's, where even if they give up 3 to 5 runs it would be okay, but now I'm skeptical because I don't want to take the chance that they hurt me. frustrating as F!

Heroebal 45 Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 (edited) Dodger pitchers are good. It just seems hard to let them go past 5 innings, unless they're pitching a gem. Edited May 5, 2019 by Heroebal Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KilloWertz 2,556 Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 (edited) Honey, I'm home!.... My team had it's first really good all around day in quite some time yesterday, with Soroka pitching a gem and my hitting going 15-55, 10 Runs, 5 HRs, and 10 RBIs (average dragged down a bit due to the Brewers/Mets marathon). Today, my team's first AB results in a hit. My team so far today is now 5-27, 1 Run, 0 HRs, 1 RBI. Well, I guess that was just a tease... WHAT. THE. ****! Edit: My bad. Now 5-28...

BustHerPosey 103 Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 (edited) Taillon, Price, Archer, Soto, Trea Turner, Meadows all on the IL with only 2 IL spots Cain and La Stella both day to day. WTF Edited May 6, 2019 by BustHerPosey Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hockey_Baseball 319 Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 I'm jealous of these people who stashed Senzel or Ohtani... while my Vladdy stash is hitting nothing but groundouts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MSU2661 40 Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 (edited) The one day all year I forget to set my lineups and I sit Paddack, Mikolas, and Scherzer.... luckily I’m playing the 0-5 team this week. Edited May 7, 2019 by MSU2661 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
papasmurf 1,056 Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Need to stream a catcher today. Garver or Suzuki? Garver's 0 for 7 the 2 times I streamed him... facing Sanchez. Dude just feels like one of those F U kind of guys for me, so I passed. Suzuki is facing some dude with an 8 ERA. Went with Suzuki and of course Garver has another monster game. Offense is 0 for 15 which makes the catcher mistake all the worse. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ComeSaleAway 46 Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 (edited) 2 weeks ago my opponent set offensive records that go back as far as Yahoo Fantasy keeps records for my league, I lose 9-6. My team was good that week. Last week my opponent set all pitching records for this year and despite hitting once again over .300 with 15HR for the week I lose 8-7. Both weeks I would have beat ANY other team in the league by double digits. This week my team hit 5 HR yesterday and I am now losing that category after Bryants HR. God forbid my team doesn't hit over .300 with 20HR this week, I'll lose 16-0. Edited May 8, 2019 by ComeSaleAway Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KilloWertz 2,556 Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 It's amazing how a team can go 20-52 (.385), with 11 Runs, 4 HRs, and 11 RBIs and then follow it up by somehow going 5-36 with 3 Runs, 1 HR, and 4 RBIs so far today. Absolutely mind blowing, and I've obviously been having many more days like today than yesterday given my posts in this thread. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
billofwa 325 Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 (edited) Boston scores 8 runs. I have three players in the lineup and come away with one rbi Edited May 8, 2019 by billofwa Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KilloWertz 2,556 Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 Update. My team has done something I didn't even think they could. My team was 5-36 in my last post. It is now 5-46. 5 FOR 46! 😡 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ty5592 439 Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 CG is a category for some dumb reason in my league. Marquez Eflin and now Ryu. Gonna be the third time in the first six weeks I lose this category. Only one other person has lost CG and that was last week against my Thor. This is getting really annoying Quote Link to post Share on other sites

KilloWertz 2,556 Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 (edited) You know your team is still not ready to bust out of it's season long funk when a team is winning 14-1 and your two guys are a combined 1-9 with a run scored and an RBI...

DFWSooner 228 Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 My lineup looks loaded, yet has barely hit over .200 for three weeks in a row. 2 for freaking 24 today. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DFWSooner 228 Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 (edited) The 3 guys on my bench have as many hits as my 10 starters....three. 😑 Edited May 11, 2019 by DFWSooner Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Overlord 1,253 Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 Been a real tough year for me pitching wise ... I had a day back in April where Cobb gave up 9 earned runs in 2.2 innings while Cimber managed to allow four in .2 innings. Nothing like the old 13 earned runs in 3.1 inning effort. But I've become pretty immune to disastrous days over the years. Though one in particular still haunts me. Many, many years ago in one of my first seasons playing online baseball, My first pick was a young right fielder coming off an absolutely monster season. He proceeded to slump the first month and a half and I finally got pretty irritated and benched him. That player? Shawn Green. And what day did I decide to bench him?

I feel your pain. Im the same way. A sprinkle of runs and rbi,a hr every second day or so. Getting absolutely crushed by teams where player for player i beat them (on paper) in 9 of 11 spots. Keep thinking "today will be a good day"....2, 0,1, .176 type days. Still early,but these days count man. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dalton Gang 161 Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 I have no idea how my team is in 3rd place with all the injuries (Taillon,Clevinger, Rendon, Lindor) I have had and today my team is 3 for 27 which seems to be the norm the last few weeks. My pitching (Paddack,Snell, Sale, Scherzer) is the only thing keeping me alive at this point despite my injuries. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
