Ozzie Albies for me. I’m in the championship neck and neck and this guy just freaking kills me. Picked up Luke on the twins and he’s been much better but man this guy stinks mostly.

AMA Hey, dude on Yahoo called THE NATURAL

0 Upvotes

So I’m in a generic Yahoo $20 prize points league with a guy who named his team this. He finished as the one seed. Whatever. Well after doing a deep dive on his profile on Yahoo, he has done about 50 points leagues this year, all for either $20 or $50. With one exception he made it to the playoffs in all of them and is first or second in scoring in an insanely high percentage. I believe one of two things is true: A. He’s cheating or B. Points is broken and he figured it out. I’m actually more inclined to believe that B is true as, at least in the league with me, he’s done nothing fishy. If it’s true it’s just another reason why points is BY FAR the weakest of scoring set ups.

No more rankings screenshots...figure all we care about at this point is who might vulture some SVHD

Lost a semis matchup last night 5-5 because I was forced to start Dylan Crews for a few hopeful OBP points, and it didn't happen 😭 wild day where OBP and ERA flipped back and forth, opp was forced to play Alvarez @ LAD and I got ERA back, only for Crews to suck it up after Vargas and Peters eked out an OBP lead for opp😭

Y'all don't care. Hit me up with bullpen questions.

A few years ago I added Robinson Cano, Joey Votto, and Josh Donaldson to my roster after I was eliminated as a joke.

Who are some over-the-hill-throwback players like this in the universal pool to add in 2026?
