Re: Live Scoring

Looks like live scoring has just stopped a few innings ago. For main event team. I try to reboot the website and live scoring and nothing. I really don't need to look at my pathetic team inning by inning but I thought you should be aware. Using an ipad2.

Weekend decisions...

I was curious on how people set their lineups when they know a player is getting a day off on Friday vs. A sub who may play all 3 but you won't know til lineups are locked. Example. I have howie Kendrick who's getting the day off today, I have Chris Getz ( I know) who may get all 3 may not.I am lagg...

Possible free agent problem

Hey guys. I have noticed that a player I was bidding on 3days ago has now been pulled, that's fine. He was sent to the minors. The problem lies that I still have a bid on him. That isn't fair to my fellow competitors that they don't have the chance to bid. I would be bidding against nobody. I would ...

Haters????

Just wondering where all you John axford haters are now? Crickets. Overblown windbags some are. A bunch of junk talkers about 2 weeks into it, now one of the most reliable in the game. Go crew!

Glenn, you are a way better fantasy player than me, but what was your reasoning behind the benching? He had two starts this week, I'm sure you drafted him early ish. You gotta roll with what you got, right?

Carmona Implosion!

i own carmona. a risk every time he takes the bump.



but i haven't heard any bashing of ubaldo or lester getting knocked around (one combined strikeout??).



i know it wasn't to the same extent. but you (me) drafted carmona with a 20 something round pick. not your ace.

no bud, he's fine. the crew was up by 3 and it was the first batter of the inning and it looked like he could of went and got a ball but played it off a hop. hindsights 20/20, if brauny woulda known that out was gonna be a game changer he catches it. thank God there is a 161 more for my beloved crew...

typical doom and gloom. not sure if the great gekko got to watch the game but... braun pulled up lame on a bloop he coulda had. mcghee got no outs on an easy grounder where he tried to make a tag at 3rd.coulda maybe turned the double play. game over. so it wasn't all axfords fault. just hard to watc...

KDS Deadline and Draft Orders for March 28th-30th Satellite Drafts??

i'm trying to stay patient here but these satellite leagues are always neglected. the two 500 leagues i'm in have been full for weeks. i don't know how complicated the picking of draft spots process is but it must be extensive. i don't think its unreasonable to get a draft pick 4 days before the dra...
