Fantasy Baseball

[ColdSteel2]

God, I love my team. You guys basically let me hand pick every player I wanted. We’ll see how that works out for me.

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Everyone loves their team less than a week after the draft.

 

[ChiHawks10]

@JCraw1 need payment from you still....

I don’t.

 

[ChiHawks10]

I don’t.

Don't forget about the draft?

 

[JCraw1]

I don’t.

i hate my team and i drafted it. whats worse

Which team are you? I'll send you a trade offer or two.

 

[ColdSteel2]

They sure are quick to call a rainout these days.

Yeah, this is getting to be ridiculous at this point. They're postponing games over clouds and cold this spring... I've never seen so many postponed games.

 

[ChiHawks10]

Just reinforces the idea that baseball players are a bunch of pansy asses, IMO.

Right, bunch of Roger Dorns. Off to the solarium to ice my blister.

I find it ridiculous that you get a win for having a 0.00 era and having less walks when you’ve had like nobody pitch

Yeah, there should be an inning minimum of some sort. You can lock down ERA, K/9 and BBs with one good inning.

I wasn’t really thinking about it pre-draft because I wanted to go for relievers, but yeah, that’s lame. Nobody should be purposely exploiting such a loophole, we’re all adults. You want to throw a bunch of relievers, that’s a long known strategy in FB, but I really hope we don’t see anyone do something like throw one good RP and roster a bunch of minor league P’s just to attempt to go .500 in pitching each week.

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

15 inning minimum.

Edit- There is a 15 inning minimum.

You can't do that. There's a 25 inning minimum.

Your pitchers don't go 25 innings in the week, you score a 0/loss for all pitching cats.

 

[TLEH]

Okay cool. Seems odd cause it marks it for now but if they don’t pitch 15 innings then it’s automatic zeros? That’s good by me then apologize.

It's actually 25. If your combined staff doesn't pitch 25+ innings in the week, your team forfeits all pitching cats.

My phone got stolen and apparently they want $500. Not sure why they thought to go on Fantasy baseball and request money. I got this email...

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Lol what?

 

[RayP]

Anyone have a free VPN they can suggest? I went to pay this morning and forgot I can't with an IP address from UT.

It's crazy how badly the Angels have wasted Mike Trout.

 

[Blue Liner]

Mike Trout has to one of the greatest athletes ever to be virtually unknown to the masses. Obviously baseball fans are well aware of him and people in southern California know who he is even if they're not big baseball or sports fans, but the average person who doesn't even know or follow sports outside of California should still know his name based on his greatness and that's not even remotely the case. It's crazy.

 

[Thucydides]

Have Trout in my keeper league. Dude is a machine. I couldn’t agree man, he should be known to the masses.

On a side note Moncada is having a great year.
