I really don't think you are going to hit the innings limit this week. With no two start pitchers and Matz isn't pitching until Monday since the Mets had 2 off days this week, and you opted for 3 closers.....you need 12 2/3 innings out of one deGrom start and 3 closers with 3 team games each. You could get there, but will be tough. Because I pushed to start the season in a rush and you did such a great job helping others get their lineups all constructed with add/drops to replace injured players, I fear you maybe didn't get to look at yours close enough.

Since Perkins hasn't pitched yet, I'm ok (as long as nobody else in the league opposes) allowing you to swap in Cain or Eickhoff for Perkins so you can at least have a fighting chance at the pitching categories. My bats will continue to beat you relentlessly though!!! :P

thanks but no thanks. I've known for a few days I would miss the pitchers limits. Offensively I am not doing bad you are just having a great week.

I have a bit of dry humor to me and tend to fall into at times.

@tlance - If you had started Latos, I would have crowned you the unquestioned genius of fantasy baseball.

Was either Latos or Nola. Nola did fine until the bullpen stole his win.

Nice pickup on Shane, @TKOSpikes . I waffled on him. Considering the state of my pitching depth, I probably shouldn't have.

@TKOSpikes you could have at least bought me dinner before picking me up.


Sorry couldn't resist with @Chef99 line

 

[obxyankeefan]

@Driaz I might make the innings limit after all. ESPN has Matz starting tomorrow, but everyone else has Colon starting.

2 starts... up to him if he wants to stay. Some might say I have an itchy trigger finger for waivers.

Throwin' heat though. We shall see.

Good thing I backed up Schwarber with Weiters. Huge blow to the Cubbies.

 

[bksballer89]

8 HR and 25 RBI so far for my bats. I'm a happy camper

Smart to backup...I know I never would have with Schwarber.

Hurts the Cubs, but not a death blow like I've been reading. Media hysteria is already in full force.

 

[tlance]

Cubs will be just fine. Scwarber is not hard for them to replace. He is almost as bad defenisivley in the OF as he was good offensively.

 

[tlance]

So this week does not count, right?

Could get real ugly for me here.

3 of us are going to lose 8 or more games. It is going to be ugly for a lot of us.

 

[TKOSpikes]

@Nosferatu - offer sent

 

[TREFF]

So this is my first check in. ..who has Mr. Story...what a start eh?

 

[obxyankeefan]

I believe Milk drafted him

 

[broncosmitty]

Yep.

This isn't much of a blow, if any. He killed them in October. Needs to be a DH.

 

[Microwahevo]

His raw power will be though. That was another dangerous bat in that lineup. Either way, doesn't kill the Cubbies playoff/WS chances b/c their depth is good, but it certainly doesn't help.

 

[bksballer89]

Good game @TKOSpikes

 

[obxyankeefan]

slow week with @Chef99 joking me in the underlining pitching club

 

[TKOSpikes]

Good game @TKOSpikes

Back at ya! ...my bats were slow to come around.
