Boom, am I qualified to be a fantasy baseball writer yet?

If your league calls for a 6-transaction limit per week, managers will only be able to make 6 player adds/drops during the entire championship matchup.

The final week of playoffs, Week 25, runs from Monday to the 2nd Wednesday (10 days). The transactional limit is “6 moves” per week; does that mean 6 moves from Monday-Sunday and another 6 moves from Monday-Wednesday, or is it 6 moves total from Monday-to-2nd-Wedneday????

@Steve: Ha

@Wilsonian: Ha…I’d hold Aybar.

@Steve Stevenson: I’d hold for one more day.

Do I use a move now (it’s a Yahoo league where you have to make a move a day in advance), or wait a day or 2 to see if Reynolds is back in the lineup? I could either pick up a 3B or a 2B (and shift Lawrie to 3B). My opponent’s team has a power advantage, especially without Reynolds in my lineup.

Available 2B/3B: Utley, Moustakas, Morel, Sizemore, Ellis, J. Weeks, Scutaro, Hill, Infante, Kipnis. Gracias!

I snagged Aybar this morning over Desmond. Infante is out there in FA land and I see he had a solid night where Aybar didn’t. Am I overthinking this, and should I just stand pat with Aybar? It’s a money league, so I’m even more anal than usual.

What a douche. Can’t really complain, guy in desperation mode dropped Carlos Santana and I snatched him.

I’m going to pretend all offseason that I had Santana instead of Soto, and imagine that I finished better than seventh in a ten team league.

There’s really nowhere to go with hitting so it’s all about my pitching. ERA and WHIP are really tight. For WHIP I’m at 1.22 with no one to catch ahead of me but 4 guys at 1.23 or 1.24. ERA I’m at 3.54 with a 3.49 and 3.47 right in front of me. One back in wins but not too worried as he’s 30IP ahead of my pace. K’s don’t matter.

Do I roll the dice on one (or more) of these spot starts off waivers and if so who?

-Chacin vs. SD
-Floyd @ Cle
-Kendrick vs. Was
-Bailey vs. Hou
-Vargas @ Min
-Cecil vs. LAA

I can’t count how many 0-2 counts he’s been in. Literally dozens. It inflates his K rate, other players with similar swinging strike rates typically have K rates ~3% lower.

That’s the second start running that they’ve taken Minor out with two outs in the inning and the Braves have then gone on to take the lead in the next inning.

I fart in their general direction.

I think with pitchers, if you’re going to take a true ace-type guy, he has to be as reliable as you can afford. So if you’re faced with a choice between Gallardo and Hamels, say, you take Hamels.

All that said, this turned into the shittiest team I’ve ever had in this league, and I was one K away from making the final, so a lot of logic and strategy ends up going out the window in the end.
