Week 3 Thread, Happy Patriot's Day!

[Big_E]

It's Patriot's Day...you know what that means...rosters lock at 11am.

[The FUTURE]

Good luck this week to the Empire.


Rosters locked 2-starts from Francisco Liriano into my lineup so you should be good to go this week...yanks will knock him out of the game by the 4th inning...of course if this is anything like last year...just when I expect Liriano to have a terrible week and bench him...he throws complete games so who knows what will happen.

[Big_E]

It has been noted that Port City Yankees moved Anthony Bass into a RP slot. Although he is only eligible as RP per Sportsline, he is a SP this year, and is making two starts this week.

NOW...normally the penalty is losing the pitcher points AND being "awarded" the lowest FA RP or SP (RP in this case) points for the week -- normally a negative number. HOWEVER, being the new guy, and maybe not knowing that rule, we have decided to move Bass to the bench, and put Crow into the RP slot. Crow was in PCY's l/u as a RP last week. There will be no other penalty.

NOTE to PCY: We are happy to give Bass SP eligibility in advance of him earning it, just ask! (But not for this week, the deadline has passed...)

I am happy we use that rule as it has driven me crazy in the past facing somebody with 12-14 PSR. With my struggling relievers I gave in not knowing it was not allowed.

No problem, that's why we didn't penalize you for the move. It's your one mulligan.

Beating The Force would be a boost to my pathetic team. Once my offense gets going I will feel better but it is just sucking all around.

Plus I need Fister back. He was a part of my plan!

Good luck to you too sir.

I'd say Morales got off to a good start this week....ugh I am praying Liriano can atleast score 1 point vs. the yanks

[ChrisRo]

My starters keep bringing me negative points. 4 starts so far this week, no QS. Who would have thought, my rotation looked decent on paper.

This will be a loooong season.

Dear Albert Pujols,
Time to start hitting chum!

Amen to that...I'd be better off right now each week just running shields and billz out there

5 HR's in 3 games...unreal

[ruthianblast]

Feeling good this week. Of course, I was up by 90 last week and still lost.

[Yankees Empire]

Can somebody please see to giving Hector Noesi SP eligibility? Many thanks.

Done. You now have an illegal roster, so bench one of your SP.

[Hitman23]

I see my game with the force will come down to the wire. Good luck sir.

I'm just happy to say for the first time all season I actually have a lead. Not that it's going to last, my team is awful. Upton back for me will hopefully help.

If anyone is interested in an OFer, I have 4 legit in Holliday, Choo, Upton, and Bourne. I'd be happy to make a deal to upgrade my pitching staff. Perhaps I can toss Lindor or Arenado in to beef the deal up a bit.

Done. Thank you.

So, Sportsline took away Verlander's start today. What's that about?

He was demoted to AA for lack of performance.

Seriously though, it's a DH, so it might only show the 1st game pitcher. Don't worry, you'll get his stats.

You should just trade him away ...unacceptable

[Big_E]

Perfect game for Philip Humber! Didn't we vote a 1000 point bonus for Perfect Games?

What in the world was Brendan Ryan swinging at on the last pitch....Humber threw it 5ft outside lol

[Big_E]

Looks like I will have my first Team of the Week honors since 2009.

[DontHateOnNumber2]

I wanted so badly for that start to be rescheduled for some other week lol Now with Cliff Lee on the DL I'm effed unless my guys step it up.

[Hitman23]

Damn what a comeback. A little weather help though....... Good game force.
