Just a heads up Braves vs Phils, and Brewers vs Mets is being pushed to Friday at 3:05 so adjust your Rosters. I'll probably be still working at that time or at least coming home should be a fun one.

It's already been mentioned in the baseball thread, but thank you for reminding us.

Last year naming my team after a player brought me no luck, so this year I'm calling in the big guns to ensure I win it all by invoking the Taylor Swift voodoo.

Good fucking grief!

Bailey Ober stunk up the whole field, giving me -26 points. Ugh, what the fuck dude lol

Up by over 150 points despite trailing after the Korea series. Also Justin Turner might be a bit of a steal if he keeps up his good first few games as a Jay.

GG @KillerOrangeCat and hopefully we match up later and have a full week.

Congrats

I am sure that we will. You did a great job.

Thanks, looking forward to round two.

Also, a tip or two for line-up setting. Try to set your starting pitchers ahead of time for the week. Since I noticed you left 20+ points on the bench. If you have issues with the fantasy line-up again, I can show you. Just let me know if you use the app or the site and I'll show you what I do. But if you set them once early in the week, 9/10 you don't miss it. I started usually Mondays in the morning while I had my coffee and like 2-3 minutes I just went through for the next few days, making sure each starting pitcher is in the line-up. Usually they know for about the next 4-5 games who's starting (unless stuff like injury or rain outs happen). So I check maybe mid week and then do up to the weekend.

For the batters, I usually find it is best to just ride the hot hands. Just set the line-up who you expect to be the big performers, and when you notice someone is slipping, someone's producing on the bench, or if there's an injury, I adjust. 9/10 the starting lineups remain the same. Only maybe the catchers you will need to double check on occasion to see if they're sitting a game.

I appreciate the help, thank you

I will take the advice and hopefully get much better at it as the season goes on

Good game HoHo.

My team had some setbacks, especially Ober leaving a bad taste in my mouth scoring -26. Not the result that I wanted. Bad week, but it's only the first week with plenty of time to bounce back.

This week I'm facing Cat. Though he lost he can bounce back and could make it a game against me. Who knows how it'll go down. Good luck dude!

I have no idea how it will go, but I will be putting in much more of an effort this time around

At least it's not like on my Yahoo team where I got hit with 5 IL's on opening day lol

Jacob Fox · Apr 3, 2024

I am still losing, but I am actually trying and working on this every day. We will see what happens.

Last year on Yahoo, Freddie Freeman was definitely one of the reasons I won the championship. Hopefully he will help this year.

So, I think maybe I didn't understand this last year. So, it is one on one? Like my first baseman only goes up against your first basement? Is that right?

I believe it is just your team's points. So get the most points by the end of the week. @Doom can correct me if I am wrong.

I think that is what I was confused about last year. Weird because I have mastered SPSS but these simple statistics are giving me a problem... lol in my first stats class by professor told me I was so good I should be teaching the class.. yet this is confusing to me

Jacob Fox · Apr 4, 2024

Am I doing something wrong or is it my players?

I am using all of your advice so please don't think I am not. I guess I just need to keep at it andthings might turn around
