Midseason Draft Round 1: #2 YRTB vs #7 Suns

[yrtb]

Yeah, good point, I don't know how I'd fit him into the bullpen though, I mean an extra arm in the pen always helps, some teams carry 7 men in the pen, I guess I'll put him there as a 7th reliever

 

But I don't get how Wieters is better than Buck, he's better known, but he hasn't lived up to his hype at all

 

And I don't get how Suns has a better lineup or bullpen, or how rotation is tied

I agree. I only agreed with bsox on the bench pitcher vs. hitter thing. I agree with you that you have a far better team than Suns, in virtually all aspects.

[yrtb]

Anyways, once some more people vote in the #4 vs #5 we can move to the semifinals

[Yaz Sideburn]

i don't know if i'm allowed to vote in this thing, but if i could i'd definitley vote for yrtb for the mere fact that the other guy has joe mauer batting 8th in his lineup

[yrtb]

Thanks for the input, I'd love to let you vote, but I can't considering that the rules only allow people in the league to vote

[suns]

I'm glad you can't vote if that's your reason.

[suns]

Offense: 5-3 Suns

 

SP: 2-2

 

Bullpen: 4-2 Suns

 

11-7 Suns

 

Finally someone with some sense!

[yrtb]

Suns, you are an absolute clueless retard if you think Michael Young is better than Evan Longoria

 

EVERYBODY in the world should agree with me on that

 

And the thing is, you fail to statistically back up a single thing you say

[Youker20]

Suns has the better team in my opinion. can anybody really say that Wainwright is better then Ubaldo? Ubaldo Jimenez is easily the best pitcher in baseball right now.

[yrtb]

Alright, it's 3-3 now

 

Divinity and robiforMVP have not yet voted

 

And maybe because Ubaldo has sucked in the 2nd half

 

But I already won 4-2 so its not a big deal

[yrtb]

Wainwright

 

* W-L 17-6

* ERA 1.99

* K 158

* Walks 42

* WHIP 0.97

 

Jimenez

 

* W-L 17-3

* ERA 2.55

* K 143

* Walks 64

* WHIP 1.11

[RobiForMVP]

I said YRTB..I can't believe you said Young > Longo, LOL

[Divinity]

I have to go with YRTB for this one as well

[yrtb]

Alright, it's 3-3 now

But I already won 4-2 so its not a big deal

 

Wow, I fail at adding

[RobiForMVP]

And how is Ubaldo > Waino? Ubaldo was getting lucky, did you see his BABIP or LOB %?

[yrtb]

But the problem is that the majority of America has failed to wake up and realize that Ubaldo no longer has an ERA of 1 and that he has been getting ridiculous run support

I have him on both of my fantasy teams. Believe me, I've noticed.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

LOL you can't be serious Suns? Where do you feel like you got cheated out? You so lost.

[italstallianion]

Suns, you faced the best team in the league. Unless you had my team or Divinity's team, you wouldn't even going to be considered against Ytrb's team. The only incorrect decision made was voting JBay's team to the finals over my team. Every other vote was justified.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

I mean I just don't see it. He is constantly complaining that he got cheated out. Now is your chance to prove me wrong. Ytrb had the advantage already since he was 2nd seed and you were 7th.

[yrtb]

3B Evan Longoria

LF Carlos Gonzalez

 

haha I still can't get over this, anyone who thinks Michael Young is better than Evan Longoria should stop playing fantasy baseball

[italstallianion]

In all fairness, I agree with Suns on a few things. I do agree that some of the voters made mistakes throughout the tournament, and I agree that his team was better than many gave it credit for, but there were only 2-3 teams that I'd give Suns the win over, and ytrb is obviously not one of them.

 

I'd sympathise with Suns IF he actually got screwed over in the voting, but it was the obvious decision. I'm all for being a sore loser, but you only have the right to complain and argue if you actually have a case, and Suns doesn't.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

3B Evan Longoria

LF Carlos Gonzalez

 

haha I still can't get over this, anyone who thinks Michael Young is better than Evan Longoria should stop playing fantasy baseball

 

Anyone who thinks Cleveland is a good team doesn't deserve to play in any fantasy league.

[italstallianion]

3B Evan Longoria

LF Carlos Gonzalez

 

haha I still can't get over this, anyone who thinks Michael Young is better than Evan Longoria should stop playing fantasy baseball

 

 

If it adds to the evidence, his team is 12th out of 14 in our league.

[yrtb]

The other thing I don't get is, why sulk for 2 years on a league that involves absolutely no money?

 

In my money league with friends I'm in 1st right now, hopefully I pull out the $100 prize that comes with first place

[suns]

If it adds to the evidence' date=' his team is 12th out of 14 in our league.[/quote']

 

I didn't come to the draft. If I came to the draft I would be winning that league.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

...So Suns where did you get cheated out?

[suns]

Where didn't I is the better question

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

You have to explain yourself. I'm still not convinced you got cheated out.

[italstallianion]

I didn't come to the draft. If I came to the draft I would be winning that league.

 

 

You'd have an uphill climb based on your drafting and trading abilities. You might have won 1 trade all season. And judging by your redraft team, I'm not convinced that much would change even if you did draft your team. When you finish 12th out of 14 teams, it's both drafting and managing (and trading) that's the problem.
