raiderbill33 (Guardians) at 5/19/2025 3:43 PM: Injuries killing me too
sheikyerboudi (White Sox) at 4/24/2025 7:13 AM: The White Sox are a text book example of why you need injury replacements on your roster.......☹️☹️☹️😉😉😉
mrbubbles1967 (Twins) at 4/23/2025 6:44 PM: 7-18 last 25 , just like I predicted on the 12th
yankeebb (Rangers) at 4/23/2025 8:00 AM: 7th in runs scored, a top bullpen, but 2-7 in extra innings
yankeebb (Rangers) at 4/20/2025 8:38 PM: 10 straight games decided by 1 run (ok one was by 2 runs)
mrbubbles1967 (Twins) at 4/20/2025 1:11 AM: Yet still tied for 1st , will be out of playoff contention in 15 games.
mrbubbles1967 (Twins) at 4/20/2025 1:09 AM: 2-9 last 11 games I knew it was coming.
yankeebb (Rangers) at 4/15/2025 11:34 AM: Three straight extra inning losses. Having the far better bullpen didn’t help.
mrbubbles1967 (Twins) at 4/12/2025 7:15 PM: How is it possible the Mets only have 2 home runs ? I knew I wouldnt hit a lot, only 11 so far but thats beyond rrdiculous.. Thats why this league is so tough , you just never know and by the way I'm in first until the usual 18 losses out of 25 happens like always
raiderbill33 (Guardians) at 4/9/2025 5:08 PM: Why are the Angels always so good in the budget leagues? I don’t get it lol… I had some hope for this Cleveland team but I guess I was wrong
sheikyerboudi (White Sox) at 4/8/2025 7:39 AM: And we are off !!
skooler1 (Padres) at 4/7/2025 7:49 AM: Hence the "on paper" line. If they're gonna struggle, it'll happen regardless of whether I say anything or not. I traditionally have p*ss poor luck on that front anyway lol
bamajoe66 (Nationals) at 4/4/2025 8:28 AM: No need to offend the Baseball Gods
bamajoe66 (Nationals) at 4/4/2025 8:27 AM: oooh.. I consider posts like that to be tempting fate way to much!
skooler1 (Padres) at 4/1/2025 6:49 AM: At least on paper...
skooler1 (Padres) at 4/1/2025 6:49 AM: Sheesh. I think that might be the best bullpen I've ever thrown together 👀
Bamajoe66 (Twins) at 3/29/2025 10:31 AM: Ranked - please use
jimgriddy (Pirates) at 3/29/2025 7:49 AM: never mind. I didnt scroll down far enough
jimgriddy (Pirates) at 3/29/2025 7:49 AM: I do notice the franchise win totals need updating
acecannon (Astros) at 3/28/2025 7:53 AM: Should the championship graphic below say Season 4 rather than Season 2?
acecannon (Astros) at 3/28/2025 7:40 AM: Alright. I'm happy to endeavor to fix the spreadsheet if Excel help needed
REVEJB (White Sox) at 3/28/2025 4:29 AM: Also, as the draft progresses sheik and I watch who can be who, then we will assign teams if needed to owners later in the draft once they get down to 1 team left.
REVEJB (White Sox) at 3/28/2025 4:28 AM: The "Total Wins" section doesn't work, BUT if you look under your name and the Astros, you will see a 100.
acecannon (Astros) at 3/27/2025 7:13 PM: Also, in the spreadsheet, the win totals are off. For example, the Astros, who won 100 games in the most recent season, are shown with 61 total wins
acecannon (Astros) at 3/27/2025 7:11 PM: But if you're picking, say, 4th to last and the 4 teams remaining are teams you've already been, can you still pick from among those four?
kingdude (Angels) at 3/27/2025 7:10 PM: Ace- when someone gets down to 1 team they can be, they get that team automatically. It happens way more often when we get 20 seasons in!
acecannon (Astros) at 3/27/2025 7:08 PM: What happens if the only team(s) available when one drafts are team(s) they've already been?
sheikyerboudi (Padres) at 3/27/2025 5:16 PM: Trophy is awarded and Ring Requested !!
bamajoe66 (Twins) at 3/27/2025 4:48 PM: Congratulations Bodell!
skooler1 (Yankees) at 3/26/2025 8:19 PM: Congrats!

sheikyerboudi (Padres) at 3/22/2025 1:07 PM: Game 1 - Giants, Phillies, Royals and Angels win the openers.

yankeebb (Cubs) at 3/21/2025 10:14 AM: The formula loves RBI so Williams
skooler1 (Yankees) at 3/21/2025 9:36 AM: *exact same number
skooler1 (Yankees) at 3/21/2025 9:35 AM: Uhh... Side note: Russ Ford had 160 Cy Young points and won... But Justin Verlander had the exexact same number of points. Personally, I feel Ford and Verlander should both be co-winners based on that
skooler1 (Yankees) at 3/21/2025 9:33 AM: The numbers speak for themselves! Lol
skooler1 (Yankees) at 3/21/2025 9:31 AM: How the bloody hell did the sim think Ted Williams had a better season than Lou Gehrig?! 👀😂
jimgriddy (Pirates) at 3/21/2025 7:38 AM: Rootin for my Royals! Go Nate!

sws33 (Blue Jays) at 3/15/2025 10:02 AM: Just realized this interesting stat from a few days ago. Blue Jays had 4 shutouts in a row, and a total of 43.1 consecutive scoreless innings. Looks like the MLB record is 56 innings, but the 1903 Pirates, but I'm calling this my own personal PC record
skooler1 (Yankees) at 3/14/2025 5:13 PM: Magic number to clinch the division is in the single digits
skooler1 (Yankees) at 3/14/2025 5:12 PM: Wow... AL East race is pretty much over already. 20+ game lead at this time
skooler1 (Yankees) at 3/12/2025 12:42 PM: That's rough 👀
yankeebb (Cubs) at 3/11/2025 6:01 PM: 11 ranked Chacin, pitching in big boost, better than Arrieta
yankeebb (Cubs) at 3/10/2025 6:17 PM: 98 ranked Jake Arrieta is pitching the same as 7 ranked Bryn Smith.
skooler1 (Yankees) at 2/28/2025 10:48 AM: Another thing that doesn't make sense. I almost never have division leads this big anymore... Great that means I probably just jinxed it lol
yankeebb (Cubs) at 2/27/2025 10:28 AM: Suddenly can’t beat anyone
yankeebb (Cubs) at 2/22/2025 2:38 PM: sadly a lot of things havent made sense for a while
sheikyerboudi (Padres) at 2/21/2025 8:27 AM: Should Darrin Jackson be out hitting Dave Winfield ? 🤔🤔🤔
jimgriddy (Pirates) at 2/14/2025 5:24 PM: haha!
sheikyerboudi (Padres) at 2/13/2025 7:00 PM: Why does the sim hate Tony Gwynn ? Injured twice now for 11 games total. He was by all accounts a really nice guy......
REVEJB (White Sox) at 2/3/2025 12:53 PM: You beat the deadline by hours, no worries...
Kingdude (Angels) at 2/1/2025 1:43 PM: My apologies to all for being late to draft. I was waiting for the league to start, and then decided to "check my lineups" and saw I never drafted! I am all set now, and won't wait so long to double check myself next time. :)
jpotter14 (Athletics) at 1/18/2025 11:17 AM: My team is on deck and I’ve preranked 2 teams.
davengmusic (Tigers) at 1/17/2025 10:01 AM: pre-ranked
sheikyerboudi (Angels) at 1/17/2025 8:24 AM: And, you don't have to worry about drafting now - your pick will be made for you !! 😎😎😎
raiderbill33 (Cubs) at 1/17/2025 7:02 AM: Thanks guys… I rarely win in this league… seems like I’ve had my best luck with NL Central teams… I liked the build and was lucky enough to find the magic late in the season
bamajoe66 (Braves) at 1/16/2025 12:03 PM: Congrats - I have tried the Cubs in several leagues without much success. Great Job!
jimgriddy (Astros) at 1/16/2025 7:38 AM: Congtats Bill

yankeebb (Brewers) at 12/17/2024 10:41 AM: I could put my backups in and they’d do better.
skooler1 (Blue Jays) at 12/10/2024 9:27 AM: This is gonna be a lonnnnnnngggg season, isn't it?

sheikyerboudi (Marlins) at 11/5/2024 6:10 AM: You knocked me out of the playoffs yankeebb - I could tie the Rockies, but they have the tie breaker.
yankeebb (Nationals) at 11/4/2024 5:56 PM: Nice run at the end here, but too late
sheikyerboudi (Marlins) at 11/4/2024 10:11 AM: Pete must have been sober for that one !! 😉😉😉
sheikyerboudi (Marlins) at 11/4/2024 10:10 AM: Some really close WC races - in the AL, 7 teams have a chance, in the NL Marlins are only 1/2 game out.
yankeebb (Nationals) at 10/28/2024 7:30 AM: My team can’t hit Rockies pitchers, it makes no sense to me.
jimgriddy (Phillies) at 10/22/2024 7:47 AM: Pete Alexander pitched an 11 inning perfecto!
yankeebb (Nationals) at 10/11/2024 5:25 AM: Top ERA, least runs scores. I can’t believe this offense is that bad.
jimgriddy (Phillies) at 10/9/2024 6:22 AM: double duty One game the Cubs P.Alexander beats the Phils. Next he gets a win for the Phils. lol
jpotter14 (Blue Jays) at 10/6/2024 6:47 AM: I’ve never tried to select/manage a Blue Jay team in PC – for good reason, it seems. Before yesterday, my team was 12-34 and a lock for the first pick in next season’s draft. Then, the team goes 4-1 and against the Yankees and Red Sox, culminating with a 20-0 combined shutout win by my worst pitchers this morning. How can this be? The Blue Jays are still deservedly the lowest ranked team … but what message are the PC gods sending me? The BJ’s are playing the Red Sox and Yankees for the next 3 games, so perhaps things will return to normal.
REVEJB (Angels) at 10/1/2024 1:08 PM: I will see who and delete some players...not as big a deal in Budget...but 31 is max

Bamajoe66 (Cubs) at 9/27/2024 8:30 AM: The worst if the hurricane was just East of Tallahassee, so we are fine My neighborhood didn’t lose power,, so things are fine here.
jimgriddy (Phillies) at 9/26/2024 7:29 PM: We live just above Bradenton. Pretty much dealt with a lot of wind all day. Had some 70 mile hour gust. Watching some neighbors roots blow off. We’ve been spared so far. Praying for all those up there in the big bend.
sheikyerboudi (Marlins) at 9/26/2024 6:47 AM: Vaya con Dios amigo !!
bamajoe66 (Cubs) at 9/25/2024 8:40 AM: Checking out for the huuricane. I will probably be without power for a while, so hopefully the team will do OK on autopilot.

sheikyerboudi (Yankees) at 9/8/2024 2:33 PM: Morgan doubled, scored a run, and robbed a hit - it just wasn't enough.
sheikyerboudi (Yankees) at 9/8/2024 2:32 PM: The Astros put an end to the Twins season, while the Reds and Giants play a game 7 - at around 5pm (PST)

jpotter14 (Reds) at 9/7/2024 6:43 AM: How is it possible that my best player, Joe Morgan, was injured for seven games in that last game against the Mets.? Never had an injury in the playoffs before any of my pennant chase leagues.
sheikyerboudi (Yankees) at 9/7/2024 6:39 AM: The Reds, down 2-0 in their series, complete their comeback vs the Mets and advance !!
