Sorry Geezer! You are usually the expert, so I can imagine that was frustrating.
-
The tricky thing for waiver claims is if you click "claim" on the player's page, you still have to click the box next to the player on the waiver page or it won't go through.
-
The SP/RP thing is confusing. There is a note on the lineups page above pitching that says "All pitchers can be placed in either SP or RP, regardless of eligibility. To get credit for a pitcher's performance, you must play him in the same role as his major league team uses him. Pitchers who start in real life must be put into SP roles, and pitchers who come out of the pen must be put into RP roles." It is, however, easy to miss.
-
So learning the hard way after seeing my third starting pitcher Gavin Stone get zero points for me despite scoring 60 when checking. Not recognizing having a combo pitcher in a RP spot when they are a starting pitcher gives me nothing. It's also why I have hardly any pitching innings, as had SP in RP spots. Oh well, probably lost 300-400 points this season. Next is to learn how the auction and waivers work, as put in waiver claims and never happens.

JBO goes over 200!
-
Geezer is over the cut by 19/d. Roca is over by 11/d. JOB is over by 5/d.
-
Looks like Portland is setting up for a strong back half of the season.
-
In the OPL, Geezer is 31, Roca is 51 and JBO is 77. All are above the 100 cut line at present, with 16d left before the cut.
-
Two teams were over 700 the past 7d, KC and Roca. One team is over 3K for the last 30d, Roca. The leaders are Roca, Geezer, Hudson, JBO, Freshmeat and KC. The projected leaders are Roca, Geezer, JBO, Hudson, Freshmeat and Portland. The top hitters are Roca, Geezer, JBO, GTown, Hudson and Beef. The top pitchers are Roca, Freshmeat, Portland, Hudson, Vancouver and JBO.
-
Good morning! The season is now 1/3 complete! There are 124d left before season end, with 4d off for the all star game, so there are 120 playing days remaining. If you are not to 42 games played today, you are in trouble to get to 162 (although with a double header, plus playing everyday, you could still make it). The following teams will be challenged to make it at a least one position: Portland (OF), Vancouver (1B and OF), GTown (MI).
-
200 for geezer!
-
200 for JBO!
-
In the OPL, Hudson departed after the cut last week. The next cut line is at 100. Geezer is currently 4th, Roca 69th and JBO is 85th of the 170 that made the cut last week.
-
Another week is in the books and the season is now 28% complete. One team (Roca) is over 3K for the last 30d. Three teams (Geezer, Roca and JBO) were over 700 last week. The top hitters are Roca, Geezer, JBO and GTown. The top pitchers are Roca, Freshmeat, Portland and Vancouver. The top teams are Roca, Geezer, Hudson and JBO. The top projected teams are Roca, Geezer, JBO and Freshmeat.
-
I missed a 200 by KC a couple days ago.
-
Hudson made a good run on OPL. Finished 173rd missing the cut by 3 points.
-
OPL must have cut off at 5pm, before my games started. There's a hard redline, and it has already moved over to the next stage. That sucks. Missed by 2 points. I thought that we had until the end of the round on Wednesday.
-
Looks like the OPL is not updating. I have been stuck on the same position and number since 5.30pm. No idea where I am right now. But not hopeful.
-
he is currently 2 points off the cut line, but has plenty of hitters and RPs still to go.
-
at this moment, Hudson is 171st.
-
And one inning in, and its is the Michael King of the first five starts ...
-
I have one SP today. Michael King. Do I get the one from the first 5 starts or the one from the last. He has to pitch like the last start! And I have too many lefty hitters today matched against lefty pitchers, so they will get pulled by moronic managers because only RH hitters can hit both LH and RH pitchers, and LH hitters cannot hit LH pitchers. Someone needs to explain THAT to me one day.
-
Going into the last day of OPL round 1, Hudson is 165th and 30 points above the cut line. Go Hudson!
-
I have 13 players on the IL now. Hopefully a few coming back over the next few weeks to make an impact. Not sure though if I can stay above water for the OPL. Need some stellar performances from the guys I have.
-
This phase of OPL ends after the WED games, with the cut line being at 170. Gezzer is currently 13th. Roca is 42nd. JOB is 71st. Hudson has moved above the cut line to 167th, but his margin is only 10 pts with 3d to go. Go Hudson! It would be great to get all four of our teams through the first round of OPL.
-
The season is now 25% complete (40g is on pace for 162). Three teams are over 3K for the last 30d (Roca, JBO and Hudson). One team is over 700 for the last 7d (Geezer). The top hitters are Roca, Geezer, JBO and GTown. The top pitchers are Roca, Freshmeat, Portland and Hudson. The current leaders are Roca, Geezer, Freshmeat and Hudson. The projected leaders are Roca, Geezer, JBO and Freshmeat.
-
200 for Freshmeat!
-
OPL: Hudson has had a couple of hot days. He is up to 179 and has cut the margin to 49. He needs to gain 9/d to make the cut (170th).
-
Oh well, back to 12 on IR, and 4 on the 60IL. They are now getting the same injuries on their return. Race horses get better treatment. Time they started using veterinarians.
-
Sorry, I have been called up to pitch I my team from the mixed softball league. My pitchers yesterday have been sent down to that league based on whatever they were throwing yesterday. I have decided to stop using any pitchers as the last two outings they have combined lost me points.
I figured I was 2-3 years fro the OPL, and I was right. My team needs to mature and get some consistency.
-
In the OPL, Hudson's chance to make the cut this round are decreasing. He is down to 194th (cut is 170). 178 points behind, so needs 23/d to make the cut.
-
Geezer went over 200 yesterday
-
I had 12 this morning, but fortunately the desperation of certain clubs reduced that to 10 this afternoon.
-
I have a team in another league with 10 guys on the IL. It is brutal out there.
-
Injuries. I am not so much running a team as a rehabilitation center. I already did that once in my career and swore never to do it again. This lot gets injured rehabbing. I cannot see me making the OPL cut-off.
-
Managers: I mistakenly cut a player from Hickman as I thought it was 24 hours post having an over salaried roster. JD had dealt with this problem 30 minutes before I acted, but I had not refreshed my browser so did not see that. This was my error. I have added the LM cut player back to his team at his original salary.
-
Hudson’s injuries are setting him back in the OPL. With 9d to the cut he is now 188th, down 143 points, and needing to gain 16/d to get to 170th.
-
A new treat for this week, the hitting leaders are ROCA (AB, H, HBP), Geezer (2B), Maple (3B), JBO (HR, HBP), Freshmeat (BB), Hudson (SB) and Vancouver (CS). For pitching its KC (IP), Roca (SV, HBP), Beef (H), Hudson (K), Vancouver (H, BB, HR). Only Portland, Gtown and Hickman do not lead at least one category.
-
The season is now 20% complete (34g is on pace for 162). Roca and Freshmeat are over 3K points in the last 30d, and Roca is over 700 for the past 7d. Roca, Geezer, Freshmeat and Hudson are the current leaders, with Roca, Freshmeat, Geezer and JBO the projected leaders. The top hitters are Roca, Geezer, JBO and GTown. The top pitchers are Freshmeat, Roca, Portland and Vancouver. Geezer is 8th in the OPL with Roca 45th, JBO 57th and Hudson 188th. The cut line is 170 so Hudson needs to gain 12/d.
-
I have Trea Turner at a very nice salary of $21, but he is now out for 6 weeks with a hammy. Normally, I would just ride it out, but with my team competitive in OPL I cannot afford an unproductive roster slot. If anyone is interested and can afford the 6 weeks down time I am open to trading Turner for a solid player (at or above 5PPG). Preferably multi-position, but can be MI, or OF.
-
Roca surpassed 200 last night.
-
You are way ahead on IP so you have some room to wait for guys to come back.
-
I think Michael King has found a solution to the throwing arm injuries. Just toss a low rotation ball at around 80 mph down the middle of the strike zone. No curves, sliders, or anything other than 4 seamers. No arm issues at all. OK, sends my fantasy numbers for him down the toilet, but he may just be the last pitcher standing by mid-season.
I have 6 on the IL, and they even get hurt just trying to get back to throwing. I am waiting for my call up.
-
Abrreviated update as I am with the grandsons in NC this week. Roca passed Geezer this week and Freshmeat passed KC in the top 3. In the OPL, Geezer is 4th, JBO 47th, Roca 66th and Hudson 180th (the cut line is 170).

For clarity, OPL snapshot occurs AFTER the WED games, at 0400 ET on the 25th. Transactions must process by 0400 on the 25th to be included in the next OPL roster to cut #1.
