at least you got Anibal Sanchez in your lineup today.

I have had more than one roto season destroyed early due to a handful of brutal early season pitching performances. In a league last year I had Danny Salazar & Justin Masterson and they just buried me in whip/ERA.
the typical scenario is that a guy has 2 or 3 games with 2 IP, 10 hits, 8 ER and THEN announces he is hurt and goes on the DL.
roto and H2H each have their advantages and disadvantages. one advantage of H2H is that an awful pitching performance ruins one week in H2H but in roto its effects last all season.

So West Coast guys are kinda a pain when it comes to setting your lineups, no?

today my patience reached its end. Chris Owings: see ya. soon more of my injured, unlucky or just plain stinky guys hitting under .200 will be available on a waiver wire near you. I'm off work tomorrow so it could be an epic purge.
.
well so far the big purge is...dropping Chris Young. There are a couple other guys that I wanted to drop but couldn't pull the trigger, mostly because the free agent pickings are a bit meh.
my math: dropping Chris Owings & Chris Young and adding Justin "MVP" Turner & Kelly "I haven't retired yet" Johnson will equal...back to back baby!

well after a day of quiet reflection I dumped Jayson Werth & Josh Harrison. Boy does it feel good.
The future's so bright, I gotta wear shades!

Will, you've gained a lot of points since you made those changes a few days ago.
at one point it seemed like my entire team was either on the DL, playing hurt, had a BAPIP under .200 or just plain stunk.
part of my problem with the injuries is that my old team got super old really fast.
now some guys are getting healthy & other guys are no longer so unlucky.
plus I did cut some guys and tried to replace them with guys who are playing well.
I just couldn't have half my team injured or cold.
so my team has been climbing up in the standings.
I had a goal this year to be more patient. I'm not sure it worked out all that well. My style is to have a quick trigger & work the waiver wire. I'm going back to that. Time to set the record for most transactions in a season!
.
Is there a way (or a simple formula) to compare player stat lines?
Just for curiosity sake I find myself wondering who had a better game (example)
3/4 2 R 1 SB 1 RBI
1/4 1 R 1 HR 3 RBI
How do you figure that out?
yeh, I figured someone would pick these guys up. Werth still has some life in him if he can get healthy. Harrison looks bad this year after looking so good last year. He needs to find his lost Mojo.
.
Chisek imploded again yesterday & I really wanted to grab A J Ramos. I figured if I didn't someone else might or I'd wake up to see the headline "Chisek removed as Marlins closer" & see Ramos was picked up 3 minutes before I could grab him.
Someone who was on my bench yesterday had to go to make room. Goodbye Rougned "Stinky" Odor. I hardly knew you. The Purge of 2015 is now officially over.
.
I've added Odor to my watch list. last year I grabbed him in the draft. Let him go for no reason other than he has no power and my entire roster seemingly had typhus or something.
I may grab him at some point this week.
