BP Fantasy Baseball (2008-2023, Current Champion = MD Buckeye)

My best closer () was likely to get traded at some point. He was traded to the Mariners to be a set up guy...

 

[CFPBuckeye]

That’s now twice this week where I’ve had Jordan Hicks in my lineup and then he’s somehow on my bench.

 

[Jaxbuck]

The good news is I get a 2 start week from Verlander this week.

The bad news is those 2 starts are against the Yankees and Red Sox

 

[Jaxbuck]

Ok, it's been a long day and maybe I'm just incredibly confused but how is it possible to have a lower OBP than BA?

It’s not possible to have an OBP lower than BA.

It looks like Rendon and a screw up by yahoo. Rendon is credited as 1/1 but an OBP of .500 (which is correct) because he has a sac fly which doesn’t seem to be figured in for some reason for his ABs.



First inning he hit a sac fly.



Screw up by ESPN, too.

so I'm getting screwed in fantasy baseball

nothing to see here folks, move along


EDIT

I looked it up, they are right

a sac fly (or bunt) is not counted as an AB but it is a plate appearance and therefore counted against you in OBP

OBP being how many times you reach safely/PA

learn something new everyday

(I still get fucked a lot in fantasy baseball)

You actually weren’t getting screwed because your BA was better than it should have been (until I just read the post above.)

Now I’m confused. Since when is a sac fly NOT an AB? So you can fly out, and because a guy is on third, it doesn’t affect your BA?

I swear sac flies used to count as ABs.

The rule for Sac fly = no AB has been in place since 1954 apparently.

Well I officially don’t know shit about baseball. I blame the Reds.

Kershaw blows. Who wants him?

This still stands.

 

[Jaxbuck]

This still stands.

He's going for an MRI on his back now right?

 

[CFPBuckeye]

This still stands.

Would you take a bag of dicks for him?

Never mind. My team is busy gagging on ‘em. You’ll have to pry them out of their stretched out mouths. I’ll throw my guys in a bag and that should qualify. Two bags of dicks for the price of one.

If we are talking about exchanging injured slappies as change of scenery trades, I have Darvish as a blot on my soul

 

[Jaxbuck]

Just got home from Little Jax's game today and see my recent acquisition promptly shit the bed.

Throat fucked by the punchless ass Twins

EDIT:



too bad this isn't scored like golf

I'd run away with it

 

[Jaxbuck]

@MD Buckeye have a week kid...damn.
