MLB Daily Thread: 8/23/17 Red Sox Win, Sadly So do Yankees, Irving a Celtic, Judge K Streak DEAD

[bksballer89]

Girardi pulled Judge
Ended streak
Lol

I don't see any issue with that. The game was out of reach. You don't want something like that getting to his head so yeah if you're up 10 in the 7th and you want to end the streak then why not? One Yankees fan called the Kay show last week and said he should have done it last week against the Mets. Requested Joe take him out with the Yanks only up 2 in the 9th lol. LaGreca went off

Any of you guys interested?

I have 4 openings for a PPR league on www.rtsports.com that I need to fill before next Wednesday. There are a few states that can't participate and they will be listed on the bottom. Real Time Fantasy Sports is the commissioner of the league and you will pay them directly, I just created the league. It's called the Wrestling League and you are supposed to name your team after your favorite pro wrestler. It's a 12 team PPR league and you start 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 2 flex (RB, WR, TE), 1 K, 1 D/ST It's a private league so I will have to send you an email invite and the first four people that send me a PM with their email address will get the invite. The cost is $49.95 and the winner gets $350.00 with 2nd place getting $150.00 directly through Real Time Fantasy Sports. The draft is going to be Wednesday night August 30th at 8:00pm so please shoot me a PM if you have any other questions or would like me to send you the invite. If you are unfamiliar with their website, I did three money leagues on it last year and I was paid within two weeks of the end of the season. Here is the list of the states too picky to let you participate.

• Legal residents of one of the fifty (50) United States (excluding residents of Arizona, Indiana, Iowa, Louisiana, Montana, Tennessee, Virginia, and Washington) or legal residents of Washington D.C. and Canada (excluding Quebec).
• Puerto Rico is expressly excluded.
• All participants must be at least eighteen (18) years of age or older at the date of registration in the Contest. Except in Alabama and Nebraska where you must be nineteen (19) years of age or older and Massachusetts where you must be twenty-one (21) years of age or older.

Best Legreca rant ever

Yeah I have no prob with it either

I do not understand what's not to like about this trade. You improve and get younger at PG, and you keep Brown and Tatum while still potentially having a top 5 pick next year or the year after.

I liked where they were heading with IT and what they currently had AND their draft picks... Yes, Irving is younger but I just wanted to see how things would pan out

 

[redseat]

Hasn't he done this twice to them?

Yup... With the exception of the make-up game (as soxfan pointed out)

That was amazing. That caller was a freaking tool.

Well they used two top 3 picks in the last 2 years, plus the direction of IT would have come to a stop if they couldn't resign him and I don't think they wanted to give him the max.

Liar

 

[soxfan1468927]

Cool. FTR the Lakers O/U is at 32 wins

Which is what? 6th worst? Not really a stretch for them to finish bottom 5, and certainly not a "miracle"

 

[Rock Strongo]

rocks FA starter of the day

luke weaver, cards, at home against SD.

You also don't read.

Actually 9th worst. ESPN got the O/U at 33.

Projected NBA standings: New playoff contenders, W-L records for all 30 teams

I was looking at the Vegas O/U

And even with that, Knicks, Pacers, Magic, and Suns are all within 3 games of that O/U. So once again, not a miracle for them to finish bottom 5

 

[bksballer89]

I have a bad feeling that either the Rocks or D-Backs will fall out of the wildcard position

Yeah they most likely did not want to give him the MAX.. But they certainly would have to with Irving, no?

wait, he still pitches?

Rockies have a pretty tough start to September. They open with the D-Backs and Giants, but then they go to LA and Arizona for 8 games. They don't get a day off in September until the 18th. Outside of that though, their schedule looks kinda soft.
