Re: Sludge Fantasy Baseball 2019
I can't remember a time when we were this far into the season and almost every team still has a chance to make the playoffs (sorry Sons and Junk Bombs). One of our best years yet.
This season when I lose a week I lose bad, it's not even close.

I’ve been comfortably in the playoffs all year, but things have tightened up and anything can happen now. Incredible that a winning % in the low .500’s can win the division.
Parity has arrived in the Sludge Fantasy Baseball League. That’s a good thing!

Re: Sludge Fantasy Baseball 2019
Quite pleased to be in second place, and only one game out of first, this late in the season.
Quite worried to be only three games clear of missing the playoffs though.

Re: Sludge Fantasy Baseball 2019
I don't think I've ever had a team that on paper is so good but underachieved so badly IRL. I don't care how many homers Vlad Jr. hit in the ASG, he can fuck off. His knee is hurt and I don't even care at this point.
Looks like Kill finally got me this year. Congrats, now you can let go of all that pent up seething anger.

You beat me down for a long, long time. There is severe fantasy baseball PTSD I'm dealing with.
One day at a time.

Re: Sludge Fantasy Baseball 2019
If possible, things have gotten even MORE tight. 3 games separating 1st to 5th. 7 games from 1st to 6th. Will be an interesting stretch run, with likely nobody clinching a playoff berth until the final weekend of the season. Good stuff!

Playoff time!
In such a competitive season, I’m glad to have just qualified for the post-season (final four).
Good luck gents!

Re: Sludge Fantasy Baseball 2019
So bummed out to lose 1st place during the last week, but you can't win when you go 3/32 on Sunday. Bend The Knees had a great week and made all the right moves. Tough league this year.

As if Mike Fiers allowing 9 runs on 9 hits in one inning yesterday, screwing my ERA and WHIP wasn’t enough....

Re: Sludge Fantasy Baseball 2019
Despite 70 home runs currently listed as day-to-day, a couple of pushed back starts and some abysmal streaming pitching selections, I snuck into the playoffs and now onto my third final in four years. Must be time to win one!
Great season everybody - ridiculously close amongst the top five.

Re: Sludge Fantasy Baseball 2019
Ya... things are tough all over. I lost the NL MVP to a broken kneecap, and one of the best closers in baseball to a suddenly dead arm. Canuckle Balls found a way though!demolition23 wrote: ↑Sun Sep 15, 2019 6:55 pm Despite 70 home runs currently listed as day-to-day, a couple of pushed back starts and some abysmal streaming pitching selections, I snuck into the playoffs and now onto my third final in four years.

That’s still nothing compared to the 2016 finals matchup where my star pitcher died before making his start.WOLF wrote: ↑Sun Sep 15, 2019 7:23 pmYa... things are tough all over.

Re: Sludge Fantasy Baseball 2019
My team looked good until Saturday, but most every category was close. Then, the Canuckle Balls fell apart - injuries, cold streaks, and implosions.demolition23 wrote: ↑Sun Sep 15, 2019 6:55 pm Despite 70 home runs currently listed as day-to-day, a couple of pushed back starts and some abysmal streaming pitching selections, I snuck into the playoffs and now onto my third final in four years.

Re: Sludge Fantasy Baseball 2019
I looked good all year. It blows my mind I barely missed the Playoffs, losing Gallo to the DL was a killer.
Oh well, at least I finally beat the evil PKOS. That's gotta count for something.

Re: Sludge Fantasy Baseball 2019
Fittingly hectic end to a crazy season. I thought I was gone on Friday. A power outage plus a couple more bad streaming choices had me in trouble. I was particularly annoyed that Canuckle got great starts from Wainright and Foltywnicz - I had hovered my mouse over both those guys before making other choices. I thought it would cost me, but I finally had a good couple of days when it counted most.
Great season everybody!

Re: Sludge Fantasy Baseball 2019
When 8 of the teams were in it until the last two weeks that is a fantastic and competitive league. Good year everyone and congrats !. See everyone in late February. Let me know if there are any changes that you think we need to make next year.
Thanks everyone.

I say it yearly, but I LOVE our little league.
Good people; good times.
Re: Sludge Fantasy Baseball 2019
Congrats to !. Great season.
Thanks to Blumpkin for a fine job again this season.
The Junk Bombs rallied a bit too late. After spending a great deal of the season in last place, rallying to finish 5th is a small victory for me.
NO way I draft Syndergaard again in any of my leagues.
It's going to be a long winter but I'm looking forward to SLUDGE 2020.

Re: Sludge Fantasy Baseball 2019
Invites for the new season went out via email and yahoo. This was what I sent:
It's that time of year. Spring training is right around the corner and that means another year of Sludge Fantasy Baseball. I have renewed the league. You should have gotten notice from Yahoo, but I also want to hear from you. Yahoo auto renews every player, but not everyone comes back.
If you want to play this year please just hit reply and tell me that you are back in. It's that easy. I'll also hit the Sludge boards and see if anyone new wants to play since it would be nice to get up to 12 players.
Let me know if there are any rule or category changes that you think we should address for the upcoming season.
