Was counting on Liriano to rise up the leaderboard... Hopefully I won't fall because now nobody else can play him...

Do you have to treat your players like fantasy or is there a way to sit really fast if they make an error?

Francisco also out with an injury, only lasted 2 innings... Crazy. Guess I should start recommending all the nl central pitchers other than the cards. I have the magic touch... |

Not like Fantasy where they are locked in for their day but essentially most of us just collect all the pitchers of the day and then play them. For batters it's gambling, you have to decide when the batter is on-deck, unless they have a long at-bat then you can get them in at the beginning of the at-bat, if you think they'll get on or not and then put them in; essentially the whole game is a gamble but generally pitchers are safer than batters. |

I'm sitting at 111th right now, got that Top 500 spot all but locked up but going to battle hard for my first Top 100. How is everybody looking this week for what card they're going to get, if any?

Okay, final day in the points chase and I'm sitting at 44 overall with 23,272 points. I'll have to seriously score today if I want to hold my spot in the top 50.
Today's Bunt SP. Huge names early, I put the likelihood of my usage in bold parenthesis
Jon Lester (BOS) @ TOR 1:07 (100% since its the only game on for 30 minutes)
James Shields (KC) @ BAL 1:35 (90%, he is a high strikeout guy with over a K an inning and I have nice boosts)
Johnny Cueto (CIN) @ ATL 1:35 (100%, hottest pitcher in baseball, averaging a K an inning with a .77 WHIP)
Julio Teheran (ATL) v. CIN 1:35 (100%, one could probably make a killing today switching out Cueto and Teheran every half inning)
Willy Peralta (MIL) v. CHC 2:10 (100%, high strikeout guy at home versus the cubbies)
Justin Verlander (DET) @ MIN 2:10 (0% too many good options going, great pitcher but no boosts available)
Adam Wainwright (STL) @ PIT 2:15 (0%, see Verlander)
Ryan Vogelsong (SF) v. CLE 4:10 (10% if I am desperate)
Hyun-Jin Ryu (LAD) v. COL 4:10 (100% top name before SNB)
Brandon McCarty v PHI (10%, see Vogelsong)
Garrett Richards (100%, hoping for a decent night to close. Averaging a K an inning)
Masahiro Tanaka (100%, his addition yesterday really threw a screwball in the points race. I've only been able to get one common so far though)
Good luck!

Well even with work I was able to do ok last night and at least hold my position....sitting 7th on Tigers and 146th overall 16605 points....moving up 46 spots will be very difficult....I'll be constantly switching players all day an night .... I plan to play everybody I can!!! Going to take a few gambles on hitters today quite a few are due for a great game. Like Miggy!!!!!
