Yeah, I noticed that. I was hoping for a 15-14 shootout, with all of those runs scored in the first two inning off your starters.

 

DeGrom seemed pretty well. Ubaldo being Ubaldo again.

[Thunder]

I think it's fair to say that all of us have a wild card. For you, that seems to be Ubaldo. I have Carlos Carrasco and Gio, both of whom are terrific when they're on, but have been fairly inconsistent so far.

[Thunder]

All of my starters have a quality start this week. I'm 7/7 in that department. Wish they could all go to the Red Sox.

[iortiz]

It's going to be hard to win this but there's still time.

[User Name]

My team is the Boston Red Sox of fantasy baseball. That is not a good thing.

[Thunder]

For the next few days, I have no true closers. Gregerson has a family emergency. I need to make a move. I'll take a reasonable offer for one of my position players.

[User Name]

I'm right here. Make me an offer for one of my four proven, productive closers.

[Thunder]

Okay, I looked at the projections, and this offer should help your offense, hurt mine minimally, and help my pitching. Your pitching will be relatively unaffected.

[User Name]

I'm deep at 3B/SS. You're not helping me out here. My main hole is 2B.

If you'll take him, I'll give you Walker. He had a good week this week. There's no way I'm giving up Altuve for this price.

[User Name]

I'll do a one-for-one, closer for Walker.

[Thunder]

I'll do a one-for-one, closer for Walker.

 

Sounds good. I'll do it when I get back from my game today. I'm umping in the highest league I can do.

[Thunder]

Waiting on you to accept the trade UN. We already agreed on the formalities.

[User Name]

Yeah I was in a rush and hadn't had the time to counter-propose, but I'm really not selling Holland for Walker. I'll counter offer as soon as I get some time on the pc.

[Thunder]

That's fine. At this point, I'll take any closer.

[Thunder]

You're going down this week, UN. I haven't lost since week 1, and am on a 4 week win streak.

[User Name]

We'll see.

[Thunder]

Well, if you gave me a closer, I would feel a lot better.

[iortiz]

I have closers, what are you willing to give up?

[Thunder]

I have closers, what are you willing to give up?

 

Depends on the closer. I think I have an excess of offense, so start there.

[Thunder]

So my best offensive player so far this week has been A.J. Pollock. I'm so happy to see that, knowing that he stepped on the same hallowed grounds that I have.

[User Name]

I like Pollock. I have him in a couple of other fantasy leagues.

[Thunder]

I like Pollock. I have him in a couple of other fantasy leagues.

 

Oh yeah? Do you also like red snapper, cod, or flounder? What about Trout? Everyone likes Trout.

[User Name]

There are better fish puns. Try again.

[Thunder]

Don't think that I can't see that rally you're putting together here, UN.

[User Name]

It's what I do.

[User Name]

You're going down this week, UN. I haven't lost since week 1, and am on a 4 week win streak.

 

You claimed victory too early, young pup.

[Thunder]

You claimed victory too early, young pup.

 

Yeah. I was busy the last two days, so I had to guess whether or not Pablo was playing. Didn't help that Altuve sat out yesterday. Once I looked at my lineups in the morning on both days, it was all I could do for the day. Usually I make adjustments right before the games start if need be. I'm just glad I tied you in saves. We both know I have almost nothing in that department.

Jensen would have helped haha

[Thunder]

I wasn't going to give up my only healthy catcher.
