KilloWertz 2,459 Posted September 28 Ho hum, another awful start to a day like basically every day for as long as I can remember... 1-11 with a solo HR. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KilloWertz 2,459 Posted September 28 The second season in a row where I can't wait for the season to be over. I have 4 hitters on two teams that scored a combined 17 runs. They are currently a combined 2-11, with 3 Runs, and 1 RBI.... It literally has not meant a damn thing what I've done for basically the whole second half as far as hitting goes. Pick a hot player with a fantastic matchup, watch them go 0-fer. Trade for Juan Soto. Watch him do basically nothing to close out the season. 3-21 so far tonight, and I'm likely going to finish the season dead last in batting average even though I've put in a ton of work to try to improve it, and I think it's actually gotten slightly worse. Only one more day.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just think, in 6 short months, we get to come back here and complain all over again while we’ll adjusted people enjoy their night😜. Good luck on the final day.

If not, I think I might end up "retiring". I know it might sound dramatic, but it's not worth the disappointment and stress really anymore. I haven't had legit fun with fantasy baseball in about 2 seasons now, but again, hopefully next season is better. If a team that will be made up of J.T. Realmuto, Jose Abreu, Jose Ramirez, Francisco Lindor, Juan Soto, Yordan Alvarez, Shane Bieber, and Justin Verlander isn't fun to manage, then it really will truly be time to quit. We actually keep 9, but I haven't decided on that one yet. Thanks and good luck as well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

murraygd13 1,068 Posted September 29 Padres have been out of it forever, yet Hosmer and Machado find their way into the lineup everyday. My closest competition has both of them! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KilloWertz 2,459 Posted September 29 Silly me for thinking I was going to have my first good all around offensive day in a long time (Batting Average along with the HRs and counting stats).... Started off 5-11 with 2 HR's. My team has gone 1-15 since. Yikes. Only a couple more hours.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WaKe21334 448 Posted September 29 Alvarez has been an absolute puke all week vs lefties. Fn Astros bench him twice vs gas can righties but put him out there vs lefties. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cesare13 783 Posted September 29 Clevinger is gonna cost me a lot of money. Gonna lose out by about 0.0001 in era. Dammit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's a major reason why I'm so glad the season is really close to being over. I'm actually either going to finish 2nd or 3rd (2nd if Boston holds on and E-Rod gets his Win), but still, it's nuts that I'll be finishing dead last in batting average. If I didn't trade for Verlander about a month or so ago, I wouldn't even be in this position. I tip my cap to him at least, and Bieber of course. 36 minutes ago, Cesare13 said: Clevinger is gonna cost me a lot of money. Gonna lose out by about 0.0001 in era. Dammit. That's just ridiculous if it ends up being that little of a thing that costs you your league. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
6Kill 419 Posted September 29 Losing by .01 in whip for the week just need the Mets to bring in Lugo or the Rockies to bring in Diaz to try and tie up or win my championship match... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cesare13 783 Posted September 29 Any of the following today would have let me get second. Instead ill end up tied for second in a roto and lose by toe breaker. 1 hr from 1 team...got 0 1 less win from 1 team,or 1 more for me A bad start by clev...a mediocre one would have been enough One team is gonna beat another by .001 in era thats gonna cost me Any ONE of those things...

Cesare13 783 Posted September 29 Needed 1 out of about 10 things to happen. Small tiny things. None of them did, a perfect ending to a season where everything that could have gone wrong did. Of course, everything that could have gone right for the other guy did. Was a pleasure venting with you all. Have a great new year, see you guys on this thread probably day one in 2020. Best of luck until then. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GC Tacos 133 Posted September 30 Second place for the second year in a row after being the top seed. At least this time my team fell apart late instead of early on. RIP see y’all next year. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrBrown 563 Posted September 30 Definitely a disappointing year. A lot of it due to injuries week after week. My lineups had to change so much. Couldn't afford to hold onto as many players on the bench since I needed healthy starters. Bench was full of IL guys (no IL spot). Doubled my money so can't really complain but still a very disappointing outcome. Some of my teams were by far the best. Also I kinda hate that Fantrax does a 2-week final. You get to the finals and then set your lineup that locks for 2 weeks. I didn't have Giolito but I know he went from expecting to get 3 starts during that period to getting 0. Guys getting injured in the start of finals period. Really awful. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
