I'm pretty happy with the Autodraft results. My team is pretty balanced. Could use some help in a couple of categories, but that's to be expected in such a deep draft. It kills me though when a player you wanted goes a pick or two after you. The damn thing took Rodney for me, and I would have prefered Craig Kimbrel who went a few picks later.

Funny how the token Canadian in this here draft winds up with Votto and Morneau. I was just one pick away from Jason Bay, which would have given me the hat trick!

Fairly happy with my team, though saves may wait a little bit to come in.

Who ended up with a shitty catcher? You're welcome. I have both McCann and Santana. Which is funny as it's something I totally would have done in a live draft.

Well the first week is in the books, and while some aren't too happy about that, well at least your fantasy team isn't the Rays. Time to look to see who kicked your ass in the stats this past week. Even though the Crappers look awesome once again this year, we didn't make this weeks Big Board. Shame, ain't it?

Runs - 59 !
HR - 13 (tie) doogie & !
RBI - 50 (tie) doogie/zack
SB - 14 27 Times
OBP - .375 Moose Knucklers
Wins - 8 Fat Elvis
Sv - 9 Stewart Scott
K - 81 Canuckle
ERA - 2.06 Canuckle
Whip- 1.06 Canuckle
QS - 9 (tie) Canuckle/Franks

Canuckle Balls are kicking ass and taking names! Gotta say - love what the auto-draft gave me to work with this year.

Now, having said that, watch the parade to the DL that ensues...

On paper my team looks decent. In action, however, they stink.

yeah, but its not just how bad your team sucks but how bad your opponent suck even worse in certain areas. I lucked into one closer, so I forfeit saves weekly. I was sure Franks Dogs and I were gonna end up trading off a 4-3 dynamo of a week, so I feel lucky that I got in the 20 wins section albeit in the back, by the bathrooms.

Ever have one of those weeks?

Find out a guy is sick and not playing, go to the site to bench him, but the game started five minutes ago so it's too late. So, you bench the guy the next day, figuring he'll be out again - or at least a little weak, and he hits 2 homers!

Fuck me and my misreable luck this week. I had five quality guys start for me on Tuesday and not ONE of them won. Jeez...

Doesn't help that you're running into my suddenly potent lineup LOL.

Of course, I'm in DL hell so it may not last...

Yeah, I was watching the end of the Braves game and I needed a few K's from Kimbrel to give me another point. Got very close towards the end. This team that I didn't pick (other than moving some guys to do-not-draft) is doing much better than a team I actually drafted in another league.

Okay, so who's the douchebag who dropped pretty much his entire team onto waivers once he was ruled out of the play-offs. Are you seriously trolling a fantasy baseball league? What a bitch move.

I posted on the league board that all playoff teams should act with honor and not pick up the likes of Pujols, Holliday, etc. It could totally fuck a league guys spent six months on.

Also. FUCK! I'm getting my ass kicked, 9-1, after one day. It's early, but why is it whenever I have a good year I fuck up in the playoffs; and when I have a so-so year I win the championship?!

Luckily it was resolved. I do think that "lock eliminated teams" feature would be useful in future seasons.

In fairness, there should also be a consolation bracket to keep those folk engaged...

I agree, which I mentioned in my post on the league board on the matter. I like being able to play through regardless of finish. I'm going to be eliminated in my other league after this week, and while it was a poor year for me there, I'd like to play it out just to try and correct my record.

Sigh, lost my playoff matchup by a hair...

How does a team with Uggla, Votto, Bautista, and Bruce et al not hit! How does Ryan Madson get 4 saves in a week! Oh well, gotta love Fantasy Baseball!

Congrats to the winners - looks like there were some upsets.
