I had a meeting end early so....with 24d left in the season, things are starting to settle in. Larry is in a very strong position to win as I am the only team within 50/d (and at 32/d have a VERY long way to go). Stephen is within 50/d of me (30). Brandon is 38/d behind Stephen and 24/d behind Bruce. Luke is 40/d behind Brandon. Luke is 6/d ahead of Joe, 19/d ahead of Stephen and 49/d ahead of Paul in the battle for OPL eligibility. In summary, there is still a chance for small movement (cont)

We have 31 days left in the season, and there are two important races going on: the race for first and the race for 6th (the final OPL qualifying spot). Larry is in the lead for first, as he has been all year. Tyler trails by 17/d, Bruce 45/d and Stephen 46/d. No one else is within 50/d. Luke holds the 6th spot with Joe down 7/d, Stephan 15/d, Paul 38/d and JD 44/d. I will track these as we finish out the season. If you are out more than 50/d I am going to drop you from the contender list.

Some interesting value on the table.
-
Lots of trading in the final day!
-
Paul is 200+
-
Luke is +200 again!
-
There are 5 weeks left in the season, a max of 35 games.
-
Thanks. I think I won enough to at least pay for all 5 of my Ottoneu teams 🤓
-
Reminder that our leagues trade deadline is this week on the 31st.
-
Well done, Larry. Nice OPL payout, too.
-
Larry did our league proud in the OPL!
-
Brief update as I am wiht the grandson. Tyler, Larry, Luke and Stephen were above 700 last week. Stephen and Tyler were above 3K for the last 30d. The biggest news remains the battle for 6th with Joe, leading Luke and Stephan for the final OPL eligible spot.
-
OPL: It looks like Larry's impressive OPL run has come to an end. He finished 6th amongst the 240 top OPL teams on the platform. He had a great season and did our league proud. It will be interesting to see how long that finish will remain the best finish from our league. I expect for quite some time!
-
Anna goes over 200!
-
OPL: Larry had a good Saturday, but he is down 101 (0.5d) with one day left. He needs a big day to make the final 4, but a top 8 finish is fantastic if not!
-
200 for Larry
-
I missed this: Luke had 200+ yesterday!
-
OPL: Larry’s opponent had a big day yesterday. Larry has an uphill run to get past the Elite Eight. Two days left.
-
OPL: 3d left not 4, so 12/d.
-
OPL: Larry had a good day and cut the lead to 36 with 4d to go (9/d).
-
The Ohtani news is very unfortunate!
-
OPL: Larry is down 82 with 4d to go in the Elite Eight round.
-
OPL: Larry and his opponent trade big days. Yesterday was the opponent’s turn. Larry is down 38 with 5d left.
-
Now, can I explain why someone would trade their best pitcher? It happens in MLB all the time. Maybe it was a salary cap issue. Happens a lot. Need room to buy promising pitchers. I did it with Wacha. Yes, it was a mistake now, but I have Ragans pitching like a demon and some great RP. I just do not know the circumstances. I forgot we could veto though,. So I learned something new.
-
My apologies, but I did not need Schanuel. I am loaded up with fastest prospects as I rebuild this team. Westburg, Encarnacion-Strand, Perdomo, etc. Plus I have Ronny Mauricio waiting patiently for the Mets to do something. In addition I have Bo Naylor, Logan O'Hoppe, Lane Thomas, etc. I have a whole lot of prospects in my line up. I looked at Schanuel and saw an average player with little overall interest across the board, so I apologize for not having interest in an another 3.5 ppg player.
-
OPL: Larry made up ground. He is down 9 with 6d to go.
-
Schanuel could have been had for $3 at auction yesterday. Why would anyone not bid but then trade one of the best pitchers in baseball for him? This is not what I signed up for. If this league is going to be competitive and fun we need to pay some attention and police ourselves. I know it is just pretend baseball, but I for one am not going to invest my time and effort if this kind of thing is permitted.
-
Larry has stated his case above, and all owners have the choice to veto. The one counter argument is that last week Schanuel became one of the quickest to be promoted to the majors in history....and this is a keeper league so long term value is also a consideration. Will Schanuel be the next Mike Trout? Perhaps not, but if an owner believes so.....not necessarily a bad trade. Each owner has the opportunity to veto.
-
I hate to have to raise this, but the trade of Schanuel for Strider is incredibly one-sided. Schanuel is a $4 player, 66% rostered and Strider is a $16 player 99% rostered. There is a veto option and I am going to vote to veto and suggest others consider doing so as well.
-
There are 6 weeks (42d) left in the season. 124 games played is on pace for 162.
-
The battle for 6th remains very close with Joe leading Stephan by 0.5g and Luke by 1g.
-
Weekly Update: Stephen, Brandon and Larry were over 700 last week, and Stephen and Tyler are over 3K for the past 30d. The top hitters and top pitchers are unchanged (Stephen, Larry, Tyler and Larry, Tyler, Brandon). The top 6 has one change as Tyler passed Bruce to move into 2nd (as Bruce is out of pitching for the year). With 42d left, there are only 3 teams within 21g of Larry (Tyler 7.5, Bruce 8, and Stephen 14.5). The projected top 6 are unchanged.
-
OPL: Larry's opponent had a big day yesterday and now has a 43pt lead with 7d to go. Go Larry!
-
OPL: Larry extended his lead to 61 with 8d left in the round.
-
Stephen and Brandon both got 200 yesterday!
-
Larry is up 25!
-
OPL: Larrys game tightened up. He is now down 1pt.
-
I'm not having a good pitching day...one RP and one SP have scored -60!
-
OPL: Larry’s up by 95 after 2d. Not messing around this time!
-
OPL Update: Larry continues his march through the OPL playoffs and is now in the Elite Eight of all ON players. For the year his score ranks 17th, and he is playing the 23rd ranked team so I have Larry as the favorite, although his opponent this week scored 200 more than Larry last week, so it will obviously be a contest! Go Larry!
-
Here is the weekly update, having missed a week. Tyler, Joe and Stephen were all above 700 pts last week. Stephen, Tyler, Larry and Bruce are all above 3000 pts for the last 30d. The top hitters (Stephen, Larry and Tyler) and the top pitchers (Larry, Tyler and Brandon) are unchanged. In the projected top 6 Bruce knocked out Luke and jumped over Jared (Larry, Tyler, Stephen, Brandon, Bruce, Jared). In the actual top 6 Joe jumped over Luke into the 6th spot, but it remains very close.
-
Hamilton is over. It was great! Larry wins by 6 and goes through to the final 8!
-
200 for Joe!
-
I am Hamilton and it’s intermission so I checked in on Larry. He’s up 7!
-
Larry is on the move, he has cut the lead to 10!
-
OPL: Larry is close but this is the final day. He needs +23.
-
OPL: I think Larry is down 7 with 3d left. Very close!
-
Actually a little less than 3. Don’t take my points I need every single one 🤓
-
OPL: Larry is down 25 with 4d left.
