    How are you trolling? The incessant "another ofer today" trash for a player with positive value in the batting average category is trolling. It's equivalent to posting every day that Mike Trout doesn't hit a homer because you think it's cute to point out. It's not. It is trolling. It serves no purpose at all other than to try to elicit a response.

    Combined with blatant laziness, i.e. "I thought he was supposed to heat up after May 1" when in fact.. he did.. but you didn't even take then time to fact check. Posting garbage information like that waters down the good information that's available on this board.

    As far as you leaving, that's unfortunate, but it really does sound like it's time to go. When you start with the get off my lawn attitude complaining about luck and "stat geeks", the game has passed you by. It's a stat based game, if you cannot understand the statistics and underlying data, you're going to lose, and it sounds like that's the case for you this year.

    Rather than the stubborn attitude on stats, if you embraced it and actually looked into how it works, and how statcast type data drives fantasy stats I'm sure you'd add a tool to your toolbox and improve. But it doesn't sound like you are interested in that. Unfortunate!

    And for what it's worth, I'm a proponent of a combination of stats and old school scouting reports, I'm far from the end of the spectrum where they scout the box scores only, but I guess it's easier to label me as a stat only guy than it is to actually discuss the topic in detail.

    Anyway, good luck in your next endeavor!
    Thanks!

This was the first year, for me, that I really didn't look forward to or enjoy, the League auction draft. And the draft was always like a 2nd Christmas day to me. One of the best days of the year. No longer.
      and then JD Martinez ruined your season !!


      I'm just teasing. I took a break for several years, it was good, but enjoying playing again. Best of luck (ha ha) for the future if we don't hear from you.

              Red Sox have 16 runs and 18 hits tonight. JD with 5 rbi!

              Oh wait. My bad. He's 1-5 and only sox without an RBI.

              Fucking turd.

                      I think that Mith deserves a JD Power Award for his loyalty to Martinez.
