Yeah, it came down to Kris Bryant's last AB. I need him to get a single, and he didn't deliver. Quite an exciting finish. Are they finished with any scoring corrections? Yes. Ends Monday Morning

Looking for a starting pitcher. Despite lots of no-hitters, not that many consistent pitchers.

Bieber was able to stay of the IL for one day and get just enough points to win me it. He is shut down for at least two weeks though. Oof. I have noticed a major problem with this league. If you have a lot of pitchers going twice, it's highly weighted. For instance, this week I have 5 pitchers going twice, so I have better odds. And with our fairly small bench size compared to Starting player number, this because huge. A set of good pitchers really do make a big difference even though hitters gets more points. There aren't that many consistent pitchers. With our small league, there are enough decent pitchers to pick up on the on Monday or Tuesday to pitch twice a week.
For a large league, there are mostly crappy pitchers available. Pitching twice doesn't add up points for one game of a bad pitcher. I got Jackson Kowar in my regular league last Monday, he pitched twice to a total of -11 points. I still won that match with enough points from others.
This was a fun week with this league, especially on Sunday. I had to think of the strategy and decide who to bench. I also picked up Robbie Ray who was fantastic. I thought that was enough until Nelson Cruz hits the HR later in the day to put you ahead to stay. Great match!

Granted, I'm a novice who hasn't really played H2H fantasy baseball before, but in my other league (10 team) having a pitcher get 2 starts appears to be a big advantage as well.

Wander Franco. Threw 9 bucks at him last night, he's on my team now.
Vladdy, Tatis, Bichette, Kelenic, Franco.
Nate Pearson's groin flared up again, I ditched him not waiting all summer for that.

You should. I'm the juggernaut bitch! Projection even overestimated me. You caught me on my worst hitting week. Didn't get the first dinger til last night. Incredible change from one of my best week last week to my worst.

Incredible change from one of my best week last week to my worst. Yeah my last week was terrible for hitters. Only 258. I'm already at 236 this week with Friday Saturday and Sunday left. 285 the week before with half my outfield day to day, 324 before that and 321 before that.

If anytime to go on a slump, this is the best time. Just have to stay in the playoff position and get hot in September.

Me too, whatever voodoo hex you put on Chapman seemed to be working. A blood feud between two board vets. I’ll see you in a few weeks!

In my league, I'm sinking like a stone. Winning until the final pitch.
Giants had been up 5-0, it got to 5-2, and Rogers came in for a 1 out save.

I had my 6th losses in my regular league that went into the ESPN Sunday night game. All I need is for Caleb Smith to get one more out in the 6th without allowing a run, but Darin Ruf hit a 2-run HR. Even with that I can still win the week with either Wilmer Flores, Steven Duggar, or Pavin Smith gets a double or either two of them get a single. No one came through
I thought I had this one in the bag since my opponent finished for the day, and my chance to climb out of the hole in the league. Amazing how stuff like this keep happening for me this season in my regular league. Almost like I have the recent Aroldis Chapman as my closer.

Despite all these talk about good pitchers in the major, most of them are sucks or inconsistent. Last week, my regular league team was killed be the terrible Dallas Keuchel pitching performance on Sunday night.
This week, I had a chance until Caleb Smith allowed 9 runs to the Dodgers last night. It will take a miracle for me to come back this week.
