Vlad was lummox at 1st only fat Sano was worse
-
Freeman too
-
Olson , Goldschmidt, Gurriel to the eye are currently the best imo
-
Then there’s the statcast bersion, which thinks Rizzo and Vlad are about equally bad (and sees Christian Walker as a kind of defensive god among 1Bs): https://tinyurl.com/e2rkhj4v Good luck figuring out the right answer.

I am confused about fielding ratings. Vlad has positive 3 DRS which is a pretty good score, and he's top-10 on some of the BBREF stats, and missing completely on others. Rizzo has -3 DRS, but Fangraphs gives him a higher defensive WAR.

Usually GG are an automatic 1 fielding rating in strat o mastic, but there has been rare instances where they gave out a 2 to GG winners , and no 1 was awarded . They had Vlad as a 4 last year , and they are pure analytics well before moneyball
-
Abreau is better than Vlad even
-
Rizzo was the choice
-
Could have been DJLM, but he only played 30 games at first, so they gave him the utility GG.
Vlad Jr., is at least a way better 1B than 3B.

Any non-subscribers want a month of Joe Sheehan’s “Under the Knife” newsletter? He’s most useful on injuries but general thoughts on baseball are interesting too. Not sure how much he’ll publish this time of year. Am sure he’ll try to get you to subscribe, but it might be worth it to you.

Yes,that totally sucked
-
Yeah, that league was a blast until CBS moved the chatboard off the live scoring page.
-
Also the Sunday night drama, where Kevin would pull out a come back win by decimals.
-
I used to miss H2H , but no so much anymore . Miss the live chat room and 10 pm drunken rantings . Also miss the waiver wire order for adds ; if near bottom I'd make tons of moves if near or at the top I'd mize and wait for that out of nowhere star.

I think this is the correct list of original owners: Me, Brent, Kevin, Schmegs, Drew, Mikey, Pat, and Hitch (though Hitch dropped out for a couple years and came back). So eight? I think Brent, Kevin, and Hitch have been playing in various leagues together for at least 20 years. Brent, Kevin, Fred, Charles, and I played in the predecessor to this league on CBS for a half dozen years, though I think that league had been around for some time before I joined in 2008.
-
How many original owners? I know I joined about 5 seasons ago.

Tati's owners are delighted by SD advancing, as all these games count towards his suspension. However, he will start season.only Util eligible.

Next year will be our 10th season. Impressive!

Otherwise, thanks for a really fun season. I am already looking forward to the auction (Sunday, March 12, 2023, 7:00 Eastern, 4:00 Pacific).

Some of you have not contributed your $20, if you haven't either do so, or expect to kick in $40 next year.

Supplemental Payouts went out today. We paid out an extra $100/$45/$45/$50 for total prizes of $300/$145/$95/$50.

How are people planning on watching the playoffs?

Well, they *were* locked when I looked at the “cut players” page around 930.

Congratulations Henry! I believe you are the first to win both leagues, well done.

I don’t think you can cut anyone now—rosters locked til the end of arbitration.

I picked up a player right at the end of the season throwing me over the legal roster number, however, I’m not marked as having an illegal roster. I was thinking we decided that rosters have to be legal at the end of the season, thus I should have to drop one player. Can people please confirm or correct this determination?
-
I tend to agree and plan on paying them out. If you are in the top 4, then you don't have to pay me, I can just take it out of your winnings. But please everyone else do send me $20 if you haven't already.
-
Okay, I'll pay in.

We always pay the side pots. Even as the last place team I think we should pay in this year as well.
-
We are up to 25% participation!
-
If no one has paid the side pot this season, I have no complaint if we bypass it.

For Capped I have a spreadsheet tracking everyone’s costs and winnings so we can settle up after the season

$50 to Mikey

hah, Good point! I am not seeing that I paid for Capped either. Is it $50 to Mikey?
-
I can confirm no payments to John or Mikey that seem to match this league or FCA-2. Unless my payments were subtracted from last year's winnings ? (Oct. 2021)

Or remind me that we all paid Mikey, or decided not to do it, or whatever might have happened instead.
-
So unless there are objections I don't anticipate, please paypal $20 (mark as money for a friend) to johndavidhook@gmail.com
-
We normally do a $20 side pot in this league, but I don't have any record that I collected it this March. Or any discussion of not doing it. Its seems pretty unfair to this years winners to not do the side pot because I am forgetful.
-
Yea but you would have to flop and pretty much not score any points and then I still need to make up 250 point difference

Cleveland having 24 year old LH OF Will Benson on the same roster as 24 year old LH OF Will Brennan is confusing.
