  • Johnny we usually have a long wait on Garp can you update the downloadable SS with the picks up to date? Just want to make sure I don't have anything screwed up before I make these picks. Thanks.

              It was a weird phenomenon in Round 13. There were four K's left going into the round---Ken, DMT, Controller Jacobs, and heyelander. But Ken, DMT, and Controller Jacobs all had already taken the 1950's slot, so they had to grab the last other good K's in case heyelander froze them out. It left Kaline sitting for him ever since. It has been noted a couple of times with bad jokes in this thread in the interim.

                    Well, it is certainly not a basic strategy.

                    Edit: well, damn, refresh the thread before posting. Hat tip to Ken.

                        Your problem is that you're in the position of Harold Godwinson---you have to deal with two many opponents coming from different directions. I would avoid Hastings at all costs if I were you.

                            I'm checking it - I have all the picks in and I'm 99% in agreement with the numbers on the sheet. I'm going through the slight differences now, I'm sure the issues are on my side.

                              You're going to make until some point in the middle of the last round. Far longer than I expected. Hell, I think you still have an outside chance at third place, depending on who other people take. Things are so close in so many groups, I can only confidently pick one team's final ranking, and that team will be 8th, lol. First and second; third through seventh, and ninth through twelfth are all very tight.

                              • On the hitting side,
                                Edwin Encarnacion has 65 career SF which is incorrect in the spreadsheet (shows 0, probably my fault)
                                Trout has 48, and the ss has 0

                                On the pitching side,
                                I'm off on WHIP and ERA, probably a formula problem I'll be checking it. *** Edit, well dummy that's because I have it listed WHIP / ERA and the spreadsheet has ERA/WHIP. That'll do it.
                                Pitching is exact

                                My database matches the spreadsheet exactly as far as rankings. Worth correcting EE (although doesn't make a ton of difference)


                                ** I think 2019 hitters have 0 for SF, I can fix that if we need to, but only matters for EE currently as far as changing the standings (slightly)
