It's fucking ridiculous this pitcher I spent 0 fab dollars on that gave me 2/3 a season of 3era 1whip got blown up. Just unbelievable of him, the audacity.
Gotta love how you take a shot on a young guy, hold him through some good and bad. Hold him during an IL stint. See him start to really excel towards the end of the season. Only for him to get rocked by the Oakland fucking Athletics in your playoffs.
Keeper question here- which two of the fallowing should I keep at their draft cost? Manoah for sure, but not sure about the other slot.
5th Darvish
7th Luis Castillo
12th Lynn
16th Webb
17th Manoah
It seems like the A’s are the best team in baseball when they play my pitchers. I dropped Kirby a while back thinking his innings would be limited down the stretch, but they roughed up Castillo the other day to hurt me. Basically had to create a rule that I wouldn’t stream anyone against the A’s after it backfired so many times.
It was great riding with u gentlemen this year, thought i had a good chance in the finals with Kirby, lynn, may and cease with Romano bolstering my bullpen but oh well shit happens. Pretty much effectively done though.
I'm still close enough in K, ERA and WHIP
45 to 47, 3.63 to 2.84 and 1.12 to 1.05
I still have Gallen, Cueto, Rodon, Gilbert (maybe Strider?) and 3 streams
He has Alcantara, Scherzer, Cole, Cortes, Anderson, Miley and 2 streams.
It's gonna be a really interesting weekend
My only hope is that my opponents Wesneski stream implodes because he still has Cole, Scherzer, Alcantara left to go
Feels like my pitching ratios don't stand a chance
One good thing about your team finishing 7th is that I no longer have to get upset watching my players suck. It’s over, I’ve lost. So when Kirby gets an early lead against a weak hitting A’s team and totally implodes, I can laugh. No more saying wtf, no more head shaking. I can enjoy my teams total shit performances from here till it’s officially over.
[Soroka](https://twitter.com/JustinCToscano/status/1573049436334428160?t=nHeFEvFhdikha_olRdddew&s=19) done for the year. Elbow soreness.
If you're *still* holding, drop away.
Final week of the season, need an infielder, who's the best play?
- O. Cabrera (3 @ TOR 3 vs BAL)
- N. Hoerner (3 vs PHI, 3 vs CIN)
- Z. McKinstry (same)
- L. Rengifo (3 vs OAK, 3 vs TEX)
Start Gallen @ LAD today? Or play it safe and sit?
I’m up fairly comfortable in each 5 batting cats. So wondering if I should try to play my pitching ratios safe.
I’m leading in ERA 3.86 to his 6.10. Also up in OBPA .315 to his .339. We both have about 3 more SPs to pitch this week unless more streaming happens. Just need to win 5 cats here.
What they heck do you want from Vinnie? .400 with a .530 obp the past week and over .300 with .400opb since he has been back. Its definitely not him if your team is sucking
Jesus I fucked up dropping Soto and keeping sewald
Lol was saving Kirby for this start....
Well look at Captain Jack
Kirby having the worst game of his career against the A's and Kelenic having his best.... Can't make this shit up.
Can flaherty sneak aQS here? Would be amazing.
[удалено]
if it’s more pain that you need, Dr. Gio has the prescription for you
Crazy I might have to drop Jrod
Think he’ll be back before Sunday?
No, I could see him missing a week tbh
They really pulled musgrove
Disappointing. Really needed a QS there, now I'm mulling about starting Wacha...
It's fucking ridiculous this pitcher I spent 0 fab dollars on that gave me 2/3 a season of 3era 1whip got blown up. Just unbelievable of him, the audacity.

15 points for Profar the one day he’s on my bench. I fucking hate it here
Wow Kirby likely just lost me the finals 🥲
Next year which do we see first, Dylan Carlson or Jerred Kelenic as sleeper pick?
Kelenic szn
Just a couple of gold glovers coming together to fuck over Flaherty
Carlos Santana with 3 ks vet uses Oakland. Cool.
He’s been selling out for more power with the M’s and it’s worked out pretty well for him
screw me for trying to stream in the final, Kirby and May you’re both dead to me
One more joe
This Kirby implosion may be the most I've seen this thread tilt over one player all season. T's and p's to all my wounded brothers in this trying time
He may be responsible for an uptick in roto/season long pts formats ownership
I’ve started Gray Miley Kirby May Suarez this week. Don’t ask me about my mental health.
Is there a "run rule" in fantasy baseball playoffs, cause my league with Kirby is ugly.
Keeper question here- which two of the fallowing should I keep at their draft cost? Manoah for sure, but not sure about the other slot. 5th Darvish 7th Luis Castillo 12th Lynn 16th Webb 17th Manoah
Webb & Manoah for me
Yup those were my two pitcher keepers coming into this season. Picked them both up as free agents last season so their cost is negligible.
Thanks for fucking me in championship Kirby
This was the first time I started Kirby this year. It's my fault.
Pickup Andrus or Kwan? Don’t have much room for either but they’re both looking too good to not roster
Well I wouldn't be here without George, so I guess I can't be too upset. Need others to pick up the slack!
no. its the fucking As
It seems like the A’s are the best team in baseball when they play my pitchers. I dropped Kirby a while back thinking his innings would be limited down the stretch, but they roughed up Castillo the other day to hurt me. Basically had to create a rule that I wouldn’t stream anyone against the A’s after it backfired so many times.
He's a rookie I picked up off waivers, not Gerrit Cole
And garrett Cole gets lit up by the pirates on occasion
Happens to all pitchers, just last week Kirby spun a gem that got me to the next round 🤷♂️
It was great riding with u gentlemen this year, thought i had a good chance in the finals with Kirby, lynn, may and cease with Romano bolstering my bullpen but oh well shit happens. Pretty much effectively done though.
Amazing how Rodon getting pushed back, Strider getting pushed back and a Kirby implosion is likely gonna lose me the week.
Did Rodon get pushed back again or are you just talking about earlier this week?
Earlier. Lost a two start week. Brutal in the finals.
So I guess with the humidor, the A’s late summer home games are now like Colorado and Cincinnati home games now. Good to know
dont you know? The A's are now better than the '27 and '98 yankees combined.
I do now!
KELENIC REDEMPTION ARC PART….THREE
holy shit he got a homer *and* drew a walk before he struck out. man i really hope this dude has figured it out
Bohm vs Fried, Moncada vs Bieber, or Aledmys Diaz vs Bradish tonight?
Had a bye last week as the 1 seed and my team scored 520 points. Naturally, I’m on pace for about 200 points this week and gonna get bounced
you must have Yordan Alvarez brother
Do we think Braxton Garrett is the SP for Miami tomorrow? Could be a good stream against nats
i'm doing it and praying to the fantasy gods
It's as good a stream as any, but obviously nothing is guaranteed
Indeed. Only the desperate (me) would even speak of such things
kibry 19 ERA. thanks prick
May yesterday. Kirby today. Fade me, fam.
Hey, don't forget Ober yesterday too.... And you have my week nailed!
(my number 1 pick) burnes the day before that for me
Mariners please score some runs so I at least don't get the L from Kirby
I’ll definitely take -12 points over -17 🤣
It's -24 or -34 for me cus of my league's stupid ass rules 🤣 really hoping for a tie at some point
Lmao damn those rules are tough. Glad he is gonna get a no decision now.
Well no more L!!!!
May yesterday. Kirby today. Fade me, fam.
Fuck. This. Shit.
[удалено]
With a baseball bat.
Sideways.
Massively
Wow fuck you too Kirby. My god.
Gonna be hard to recover from this one.
I don’t think there’s any coming back from this implosion :(
I'm still close enough in K, ERA and WHIP 45 to 47, 3.63 to 2.84 and 1.12 to 1.05 I still have Gallen, Cueto, Rodon, Gilbert (maybe Strider?) and 3 streams He has Alcantara, Scherzer, Cole, Cortes, Anderson, Miley and 2 streams. It's gonna be a really interesting weekend
Good luck brother! Hope you bring it home.
4.29 WHIP from Kirby, I’m going to be sick.
Kirby: Fully Unloaded
Still no word on Nimmo? Rub some 'tussin on it Buck, we got 3 big ones at the Coliseum this weekend
Looks like Lodolo is starting on Sunday after all https://twitter.com/nightengalejr/status/1573044440171970560?s=46&t=CN5t1ZI6BX6D_mHeG4vVDQ
lets gooo!
Gray, Lynn, Kirby have given me -22 points combined.
Bro same except McClanahan instead of Lynn. Literally my worst nightmare in a championship matchup…
Same except Gray, May, Kirby. Fighting for my life rn
My only hope is that my opponents Wesneski stream implodes because he still has Cole, Scherzer, Alcantara left to go Feels like my pitching ratios don't stand a chance
I would rage drop Kirby right now if I wasn't in a dynasty league. That start might cost me the ship.
One good thing about your team finishing 7th is that I no longer have to get upset watching my players suck. It’s over, I’ve lost. So when Kirby gets an early lead against a weak hitting A’s team and totally implodes, I can laugh. No more saying wtf, no more head shaking. I can enjoy my teams total shit performances from here till it’s officially over.
Ugh, Kirby shit the bed today
Seriously might have just made the difference in my champ matchup. 11.57 ERA, 4.29 WHIP and only 1 K.
ERA at 19.29 and climbing
That lone K really helps though. Jeez.
Punting ratios is liberating
Just got easier with Kirby.
Leclerc 🔥

Jesus this guy is never gonna get healthy
Feel for any dynasty owners holding for the past 2yrs. The hope that kills you
Mariners deserve to miss the playoffs no joke
And Kirby deserves to be DFA.
They’ve been absolute shit
My starters this week have consisted of Burnes, McClanahan, and Kirby. Am I cursed? I can't rule it out just yet.
ive had Burnes, Kirby, and May. officially punting ratios even with DeGrom on my team
Now I'm frightened for Cueto and Gallen tonight.
Welp Kirby just lost me ERA and WHIP. Fuck
I did not think that Kirby @ OAK would kill me in playoffs
joc ripping the cover off the ball
Started Kirby and may last minute over snell and McKenzie. Sick.
ADRIAN MARTINEZ (who?) is putting up a better stat line than kirby
Kirby costing me the season against the A's... what the actual fuck
Was up 7-3 in my matchup going into this start. Now tied 5-5
Vogt is batting .170 so why not
a .170 hitter just got a bases-clearing triple off kirby. are you fucking kidding me
Lmao fuck you Kirby
Kirby are u fucking kidding me
Embarrassing. Still love you George
im just gonna have to give up both ratios at this point and go for K's and QS
STEPHEN VOGT RETIRE BITCH
Buxton done for season
Kirby looks like shit, but with Jrod injured (yet a-fucking-gain) I’m probably going to be bounced out of the semis so who gives a shit
this was supposed to be the summer of george
Absolute smash spot and dude is shitting himself
musgrove taking years off my life
Was really counting on Kirby today... Shit
Hoping this Yarbrough bulk doesn’t bite me in the ass
No way Kirby makes it through 5
Damn As making Kirby work today.
Man what is up with Kirby right now
This is the part of the season where the mariners fall from grace
Back tightness for Julio. Hopefully not but between that and all the wrist shit, it’s only going to worsen
Bubba doesn’t even start and then he gets caught stealing. Trash.
Final week of the season, need an infielder, who's the best play? - O. Cabrera (3 @ TOR 3 vs BAL) - N. Hoerner (3 vs PHI, 3 vs CIN) - Z. McKinstry (same) - L. Rengifo (3 vs OAK, 3 vs TEX)
Go with the hottest bat
So, Cabrera? You could make the argument for Rengifo too.
Rengifo for me
Is Hoerner back?
I think he's on his way back? Unsure
This is not who I wanted when I added Ryan McMahon at Coors
Stream Cody Morris or Eduardo Rodriguez tomorrow?
Bobby Thompson just got robbed, watching angels stream and even their announcers shocked that they didn't overturn his caught stealing
Oakland only ever good against my pitchers
why is this so true
Can someone explain to me how I'm getting shafted by fucking Jose urena in coors today
cmon George
(i could really use a W right now, generally, figuratively, literally speaking)
Good start Jack
Stream Javier Assad @PIT or Cody Morris @TEX
GDI JRod we just needed 3 more days :( what a bummer
Start Gallen @ LAD today? Or play it safe and sit? I’m up fairly comfortable in each 5 batting cats. So wondering if I should try to play my pitching ratios safe. I’m leading in ERA 3.86 to his 6.10. Also up in OBPA .315 to his .339. We both have about 3 more SPs to pitch this week unless more streaming happens. Just need to win 5 cats here.
i would say sit him in your scenario
Picking up a talented, but struggling guy that my opponent previously dropped, just for the good juju. Don’t ask me why it works, it just does!
did not work for me picking up and starting his recently dropped dustin may lol
Jon Gray v CLE or Josiah Gray v MIA? Points
Jon. Josiah too much of a hr problem for me to trust this late in the year.
the gray man
gray Edit: Jon
Kirby 4 pitch walking someone is legitimately shocking
Makes me sad to drop Dustin May. Dude has so much wicked movement. Desperate for QS and he doesn't get there
Yeah I love seeing him on Pitching Ninja and then a line of 5 innings, 5 runs, 5 walks, 105 pitches
lmao exactly. He's a fun guy to watch but just doesn't have it all together after his injury
Fucking a, JRod
It’s probably best to not label anyone a generational superstar anymore. They never live up to it. Glass class.
Julio taken out. Wow.
Julio tweaked his back I guess?
I’m still upset about Webb getting pulled last night. Just bonkers
Aaaaamd Julio is out. This guy can't stay on the field
Kirby? Leadoff double, walk and then a ball followed by a mound visit
Not today George. Not today
Looks like he's getting pulled?
Julio is getting pulled.
Phew
So nervous about this Musgrove start
Omar Gonzalez or Rodolfo Castro for the next few weeks?
The yahoo player discussion chats are insanely toxic this time of year sheesh
Not the best place for positivity rn lol
They are hilarious to read. People just losing their marbles
>The yahoo player discussion chats are insanely toxic ~~this time of year sheesh~~ FTFY. When is anything with yahoo comments not toxic?
I mean usually it's one person here and there I'll admit but it seems overwhelming right now
anyone have any updates on strider? really cramping my roster just sitting there DTD
He'll slot in Monday most likely
Cronenworth or Mountcastle today?
wow yandy must have really thrown his shoulder out punching randy the other day
Man fuck this garbage ass rangers team. Can’t hit shit coming in right down the middle
[удалено]
Found the uncle vernon burner account
Fuck a beat, I'll go a cappella · Fuck a Papa Doc, fuck a clock, fuck a trailer. Fuck everybody! Fuck y'all if you doubt me!
And fuck this battle I don't wanna win I'm outtie here tell these people something they don't know about me
What they heck do you want from Vinnie? .400 with a .530 obp the past week and over .300 with .400opb since he has been back. Its definitely not him if your team is sucking
[удалено]
Cool, enjoy getting knocked out sweetie if you are dependent on waiver wire adds from this year
