In other news Miggy Cabs has two herniated discs in his back. That explains a lot.

I like h2h over roto, even when it bites me like this season.

I tentatively think I'm going to win my BIG MONEY ($1500!) league for the 2nd time in 3 years. God bless H2H points, god's preferred fantasy system.

I eked out the slightest of wins in the semi-finals of the goon league yesterday, winning the tiebreaker and only getting the tie during the final game last night. Go me. Even if I don't win the finals I still get  e: The guy I'm facing in the finals has Judge and Trout, I have... Justin Upton and Jose Altuve as my two best hitters. mentholmoose fucked around with this message at 21:22 on Sep 25, 2017 |

H2h in the finale is so stupid. Moreso with the final week being the final mlb season when good players are getting rested for the postseason and pitchers are skipping starts to line up for playoff rotations. Sale pitches today, does he start Sunday or should I drop him and pick up another starter for more strikeouts and potential win? Rapidly changing your team in the final to cheese out extra starts is stupid. Also I assume Yadi and Turner are dead and will basically be rested till the end of season. All this after blowing out my opponent 10-0 and crushing every category in the semi finals.

Rapidly changing your team in the final to cheese out extra starts is stupid. I'm also in the Sale boat and will be shocked if he pitches on Sunday, even though he's lined up to. The only way I see him pitching is if they haven't locked up the division yet, which is unlikely.

I am figuring he will throw 50-60 pitches to keep him on regular turn for the start of the division series

Yea lining up pitching is the only thing i hate about h2h playoffs. I seriously doubt Max goes again so i may need another arm but only have one transaction left and have Olsen and possibly Betts done :/ I want to win my loser bracket and get my money back

I should really consider moving the playoffs back a week but in a 12 team league it lines up too perfectly to have the finals on the last week

My points league is insanely close and coming down to the last 5 days. 3 of us are within 10 points of each other (and we've scored 5400 points). I think I'm the only one that realizes that you can exceed the innings limit on the day that you surpass it though. So I'm going to get as low as I can by Saturday and load up on Sunday's starters. Should I feel bad if this is how I win? It's not breaking any rules, but it feels a little wrong.

I think that's foul play, but I guess reasonable people may disagree. The same issue exists on ESPN for leagues with start limits, if you are under on Sunday you can start as many guys as you want. Our commissioner always reverts the starts that go after the limit is reached. Frankly if your rules have an innings cap, I'm not sure it's not against the rules even if your platform doesn't automatically enforce it.

Innings limit is hard because if you're like 19 under and start three guys that all go 7+ innings (and maybe get an inning or two from closers) it's not really your fault for picking good pitchers and I don't like the idea for punishing people in that case (which is why it probably allows you to go over the limit on the day you do). But if you blow way past it intentionally then that's different. I'm about as rules lawyer-y as it gets and even I wouldn't do that.

Yeahhh, I agree with all of this. I guess the solution is to just try and get as close as possible to the limit, with a few extra incidental innings being fine. I shouldn't have asked. Now I feel worse about it, won't do it, and will lose as a result  e: Unless I see one of the other guys doing it, in which case gently caress it Gobias Ind. fucked around with this message at 17:43 on Sep 27, 2017 |

I did it in a yahoo pro league, since I didn't care about anyone in there. In your case I would've talked about it before the year started and tried to get a rule against it.

I'm a big crybaby about people doing things unfairly, and even I'd anticipate dropping everyone to fill up every roster slot with a starter on the last day. Just don't go messing it up and going just over the day before.

My stupid roto league plays all the way through this lovely week (with rosters that lock on monday morning) and I just remembered how mad I got the other day when some team with no hope of getting in the money picked up Blake Snell for his two starts this week. Then he throws 1 inning and gives up four runs. Life is good.

Honestly the season should just end the first week of August and have the playoffs be the next three weeks, give or take a week.

IcePhoenix posted:I should really consider moving the playoffs back a week but in a 12 team league it lines up too perfectly to have the finals on the last week Yeah it just works out perfectly but still sucks. I had a 15-4-1 record against the guy I'm playing in the finals and he has maxed out his 7 roster moves every time. He also created the league and knows the most about fantasy whereas I just drafted well and mostly set-and-forget my lineup. He's currently winning 5-3-2 but I should pass him in ERA and WHIP once the minimum starts is hit. Playoff fantasy baseball is just as bullshit as real playoff baseball. I'd rather the playoffs be top 4 advance and have the finals be a 2 week thing like the allstar break is instead of top 6 with a bye for 1/2.

You guys down in the dumps about the fact that you chose head to head over roto? No matter! Let's all laugh together at some horseshit rankings. https://www.faketeams.com/2017/9/29/16385310/2018-fantasy-baseball-top-250-rankings-standard-5x5-leagues

Gary Sanchez should be in the 20s somewhere, and he probably will be ranked there by spring training.
