@L-Boogie, Stream-o-nator now has 5 days worth of probable pitchers. Only catch is a pitcher can only be in there once so if someone has two starts, only their 1st shows up. Limitation with how i built the system.

I think we have better with batty call…

@L-Boogie, Yup on USAToday – only 5 days and the format is less than ideal (e.g,. breaking each starter onto a different line which makes it tougher to determine opponent. ESPN is split out by the day which would require more than one call and I’d have to adjust the call each day to put in the correct calendar date. Plus, the way the team information is displayed makes things tougher too…

I can gain several points with just a few SBs. Is there any way to figure out which pitcher/catcher combinations are most likely to give up SBs? There must be a statistic for this compiled daily somewhere…..

I know, I was saying the trade gets Upton and moves Longoria into your lineup, looks decent…

By: Grey

Ha! Better than Buffy Fan Fiction, I suppose…

I went with Machado for s’s and g’s, they’re a toss up… Agreed on batty call…

@Grey,

The trade is for Upton.

I currently have Longoria. The move will free up space on my lineup to move Longo from my DL spot to starting UTL.

@Grey, “Bill James” is the handle I use when I write Chris Davis fan fiction.

@L-Boogie, Can’t believe that worked. But I just noticed the USA Today one only has 5 days of probable pitchers.

@Rudy Gamble, Would either of these work? (sorry if the link don't work right. not sure how to embed them correctly): http://espn.go.com/mlb/probables http://fantasybaseball.usatoday.com/content/probables.asp?sport=MLB I'm HTML-illiterate so there is no way I coded that correctly so if it flubs, I'll just post the text without trying to link it. CBS has a great one but I think you have to be in a league to view it.

Machado over Segura at short ROS? BTW my vote would be for batty call.

By: Grey

Grey — Fri, 10 Aug 2012 17:41:35 +0000

So it’s Upton and Longoria? It’s not bad…

By: The Real McCoy

The Real McCoy — Fri, 10 Aug 2012 17:38:54 +0000

I give: C. Johnson, Rizzo, and B. Phillips
I get: Justin Upton

I need to make a move in order to bring Longo back into my lineup

am I seriously overvaluing J.UP??

I think they’re pretty close…

Sounds decent… A lot will be riding on Braun…

@Grey, Do you think Adam Jones is a better keeper than Cano?

@Grey, Do you like Werth more than Crawford as a trade target?

I am in a 20 team h2h dynasty league. I Have an offer on the table where I get Braun Sandoval Bourn Aybar Jordan Zimmerman for my Longoria Morse Profar Sano Wheeler. Does this move hurt me in the long run or am I good for the foreseeable future?

@Grey, Any shot Profar is the starting SS for TEX next year? Hamilton leaves, Kinsler moves to the OF…if we close our eyes and clap really hard can we make this happen?

@Grey, Yeah, I’ve been waiting over a week for Chris Davis to give me another slam. Wait, huh?
