I always just assume Cash is leading in everything until I see the actual leaderboard.

Who leads the league in Webgems (+)? Hugh Duffy leads the Braves with 4.

Has everyone else been keeping track of them? I did the first couple tournaments, but no one else was, so I stopped.

yeah, i dont track those.

@SkitchP wrote:yeah, i dont track those.

I enjoyed tracking them to see who was worth keeping in defensively, and it would be even easier if most of us are just copy-and-pasting anyway.

A quick look through the boxscores and I have Ruppert Jones with four for the Mariners and Donaldson with three for the Jays.

Arrieta with a win and a loss on the same day too.

CopperTom wrote:How many games per day do you want the play?

It would depend on how many teams there were, but I feel like an odd number makes more sense, be it one or three.

We've reached a point where Skitch is the only person left still using platoons. He did win a championship with platoons though, so it makes sense...

Honestly I don't know if they help me at all. It's just fun to play with the lineups

You could easily have playoff teams in both leagues, so it very well may be working.

I really wish I had more time to keep up with this stuff. I have no idea what my teams stats are. I have no clue who is playing well and who isn't. I basically just check the scores and standings each day. I know that I've split every series except one! That's kinda crazy.

GO TWINS!

Eh, you're more or less right on time.

stats updated

5 straight splits after the 6-0 start

TBAMTS wrote:5 straight splits after the 6-0 start

It looks like 29-26 is the best record anyone has had and not made the playoffs in one of our tournaments, so as long as you can maintain those six games over .500 you should be in great shape.

Are we doing top three or four make the playoffs?

I thought we upped it to four when we got to twenty teams.
