Yes I'm sorry. I'm still trying to get used to Roto. Never played roto league before. I forgot that my two ties, while giving me a point in the matchup, still count as a tie in the standings.

Thx for clearing it up.

League Comparison:

Runs- A: 7,366 B: 7,126
HR- A: 1,704 B: 1,661
RBI- A: 6,996 B: 6,824
SB- A: 1,106 B: 1081
OBP- A: .333 B: .332

W- A: 703 B: 669
Ks- A: 10,355 B: 9,864
Sv- A: 577 B: 599
ERA- A: 3.50 B: 3.52
WHIP- A: 1.214 B: 1.223

The A league currently leads in 9 categories, many by a wide margin. We will almost certainly be looking at 2 teams from each league changing sides. Now that Micro has opened up a 6 game lead on the field, he is looking really good for the automatic bid.

As for the A league, Dub and Kevin look likely to be the victims of relegation at this point. Paul and Chef are each 14 games clear of 11th place Kevin, and appear safe for the moment. Ram is still within reach of either team, but he is still 8 games up on Kevin and 10.5 ahead of Dub.

Good luck to all in week 19!

One thing I like about dealing with Paul is that when I offer him crazy trades, he understands that I'm not trying to insult him (although I really would've loved one more ride on the Crazy Train). :nod:

Good luck with this one, Paul! Hope it helps both of us, although at this point I'm trying to avoid relegation, I think. :bawling:

Great comparison. Looks like the B-league could push for some categories in the final weeks. SB, ERA, wHIP, OBP, and HRs all appear attainable, with HRs being the least attainable. Saves more than likely will go to B. These last weeks are gonna be pretty exciting.

You as well Chef!
I just noticed we face off too... hopefully neither player dealt is a factor this week! good luck

Woohoo Javier Baez!!!

That's what I'm saying in our other league, and just in time with all the injuries I have over there.

Tomorrow night I'll be saying goodbye to my long time keeper Joey Votto.
He's been very good to me, but it's time to move on. Good Luck my friend (2007 - 2014) :lebowski:

I'm waiting for one of you Fantasy Assembly guys to do an analysis on the Price trade. My take: the Rays could've made the same deal (or a better one) in the off-season. Short term, they killed the morale of a team that was playing pretty damn good baseball and had a chance to get back into postseason play. Am I missing something? :scratch:

No. It seemed like a panic move, and I have no idea why they were panicking.

I agree. Terrible trade. They pumped the talk up for a month and then got Franklin and Smyly? Plus the biggest part, giving up Jackson too....which really dampens the return value even more. Even with no Jackson involved, I would still say the Rays didn't get the right package...And I'm a Smyly fan.
