Lange, Vazquez and Lemahieu were sniped. Not very inspiring but it often isn't. Conforto was dropped so I will put a claim on him. I debated punting saves but they are one of the easiest things to find so I will look to stockpile and trade them for offense.

How was Walker a free agent??

How was Walker a free agent??

None of the teams drafted him.







Ha, ha. Pretty sure this is a free yahoo public league, so....

In AFA we don't ask questions like that.

I drafted a team last week, here's what I have.

C: CRaleigh
CR: JNaylor, YDiaz, TCasas, JJung
MI: JSegura, KWong, CJAbrams
OF: JPederson, JWinker, SBrown
SP: PSandoval, KSenga, HBrown, TAnderson, RContreras, NEovaldi, ELauer, JTaillion
RP: AJPuk, KGraveman, AOttavino, TMay

SS could be better, BStott, LRengifo and HKim are available. Maybe one of those would be an upgrade.

There's a decent amount of starting pitching available but I think I'll roll with what I have for now.

Can't believe that Raleigh was available. Probably the best outfield I've started with. Closers were pretty picked over

I like it better than I did after the draft. My goal is to have strong pitching and speed and try to add power through WW/FA/trade.

After hovering outside the playoffs for the season, I moved into 6th place in the second last week. I upset an absentee 3rd place team, then upset the first place team 5-4 to meet the 5th place team in the final. Not sure if I will do it next year, but it ain't over till it's over.

ETA: Here's what my championship-calibre team looks like.

WE DID IT!!! A week of ups-and-downs saw pickup Nolan Jones get a HR and SB (to join the 20-20 club), earning us a 4-4 tie (we won both season matchups 5-4).

Skubal's stats from the suspended game are not yet showing but we won Ks and won't improve enough to win ERA/WHIP, which is moot.

I used my final 2 moves to add Sanchez who lost his start and Boyle who got the win, but we still came up short in that category.

Thursday I had no saves but I stuck with Munoz/Scott/McArthur and won the category 3-0.

The craziest part is that we upset the 5th place team after a dominant season by the first place team (who got thrashed 9-1 by the 2nd place team in the bronze medal game).
