According to the website I got 57 "Fan Pts" yesterday. What exactly does that mean? I don't know. Am I happy that I'm still in 7th and not 8th or last or whatever? Yes. Will I be happier in 6th? Yes. Could it happen? Stranger things have, are, and will happen.
Go Blue Jays (The Blue Jays on my team are: Glaus, Wells, Hillenbrand, Rios and Burnett)!
Go Blue Jays!

Wow.....  Back to back monster days for DJ, or should I just call them "not too shabby"? :rolleyes: Not to mention 146 points in his last 7 pitching starts (20.9 FPPG), and 187 in his last 11 (17.0). This man could be dangerous if he knew what he was doing. Saturday Scores

Commissioner's Note -- Scoring Correction I don't know why I keep making mistakes with CC....Must be a mental block or something, or maybe I'm just a block head. Anyway..... As of the morning of 4/18 CC had made 19 Pitching Starts (SPU). This can be seen if you look at the standings posted on 4/18 at 7:03 AM. On 4/18, CC used 3 pitching starts for minus 49 points. This can be seen if you look at the "Tuesday Scores", posted on 4/19 at 7:16 AM However....If you look at the "Current Standings" which I posted the same morning, you will see that not only did I deduct 49 points from CC's Starting Pitching Points (SPTS), I also deducted 3 starts from CC's total of Starting Pitcher Used" (SPU) instead of adding 3 starts to the total. So the number of SPUs there now - 16 - is incorrect. It should have been 22. I left it alone for that day, and for all ensuing days until this morning, when I added (above) 6 starts (SPU) to CC's total from the previous day.

BTW.....
Since the 162 game maximum for Pitching Starts (SPU) is something that we are, in effect, keeping track of manually, you can check the number which is posted in the SPU column every day for your own team as well as any other team in our league.
On your team's home page, towrds the upper right-hand portion of the page, there's a ling to "Team Log".
If you click on that, it will give you a drop down box that will enable you to view all of the statistics accumulated by all of the players on your team on days when they were in your starting lineup, as well as those of the other members of the league.
To double check how many pitching starts you or anyone else has used, simply look at the Team Log for whichever team you wish to check, scroll down to the pitching section, and add up the number in the column labeled "GS" (Games Started).
I check it myself every few days (that's how I discovered the error with CC this morning), but if anyone happens to notice an error before I do, please bring it to my attention.

19pts.?! Are you kidding me?! Well my Blue Jays got beaten by the lucky Red Sox. I was at the SkyDome for this one and it was a great game, it's too bad we lost though.  :rolleyes:  I am 6 of 9, and any way you slice THOSE numbers they go well together, I'm sure every one here can agree on that!  Hopefully today goes a bit better and Frank Thomas hits 7 Grand Slams, hits for the cycle, and gets 20 RBI. That should take care of the DD game so I can focus more energy and time on this more challenging game. But...as a HOMER (read hometown Toronto boy raised since the age of $4$) and a Canadian (Apple, don't shoot me or just shoot me either way really) I don't know any thing...whatever, nevermind. Here I am now entertain me! :p

Thats pretty good, and it's what I like about this game.
You actually have to do some managing.

****TRADE ANNOUNCEMENT****
PL trades
Dontrelle Willis and Chris Shelton
to CC for
John Patterson and Hideki Matsui
(NOTE: I forgot from Yahoo Basketball how it works with the Commissionber approving trades. There is supposed to be a 48 hour period during which the trade is pending. Then the commissioner approves the trade. So it should not have been approved until Thursday at about this time, which would have made the players appear on PL and CC's roster for Friday. Since I made the mistake of approving the trade already, PL and CC will keep all four players on their respective benches until Friday's games)

I think all trades are interesting to some extent, one way or another. Matsui is available, BTW, if anyone is interested. (Don't we have any Yankee fans in this game?)
