so glad I sat Hunter Pence today, 3-for-5 with 2 homers is no good for me, THANKS YAHOO MATCHUP RATINGS
I used to do this too and learned the hard way. I generally only use the matchup ratings only if it's a really close call and actually presents relevant info. Otherwise I usually stick with the hot bat.

Anyone having troubles setting your lineups in Yahoo fantasy using Firefox? I can move players around but it won't let me save. When I hit the save button, it just hangs and nothing happens. Also I can't open the breaking news popup next to their names. But it all works on Chrome.

Re: The OFFICIALLY OFFICIAL Fantasy Sports General Chat ThreadŽ
I have a little problem with having too many options.
I have slots at 1B, 3B, 1B/3B, and UTL (4 spots) with these 5 players to fill them:
Prince Fielder- 1B
Edwin Encarnacion- 1B, 3B, DH
Ryan Zimmerman- 3B
David Ortiz- DH
Albert Pujols- 1B
Anyone have any advice on what to do? My OF is pretty weak (Beltran and Hunter aren't playing and Bonafacio just got hurt along with Cespedes being hurt). I had a small temptation to offer Pujols in order to acquire Josh Hamilton.
EDIT: Figured I'd add pictures of my team

Your team doesn't look too bad. If you could package pujols and Lahair for Hamilton I would do it in a heartbeat. That being said you already suffered through the worst with Pujols so I wouldn't take much of a discount on him. You could trade Fielder if you wanted for OF help as well. I think E5 is legit and wouldn't trade him because you'd get less return. Is Ibanez or Moreland available in FA. They could help your OF. McCarthy is hurt so I wouldn't waste a DL spot him. You could drop him.
Re: The OFFICIALLY OFFICIAL Fantasy Sports General Chat ThreadŽ
Im running out of DL spots lol. I have 3 of them on there. Ibanez is available along with a lot of other people

Matt F'n Garza. And why the heck does Motte get charged with a blown save?

Because Motte allowed Guzman's hit that gave the Padres the lead. Even though it wasn't his runners, since the save was blown when he was pitching, he is charged with it. At least he got a win though.

That sucks. Dumb rule. The guy who allowed the runner should get the blown save and not Motte & unfortunately that league doesn't count wins but it does count net saves. :(
Re: The OFFICIALLY OFFICIAL Fantasy Sports General Chat ThreadŽ
I got Josh Johnson, Tim lincecum & Yovanni Gallardo starting tonight. Before the season you would've thought that was pretty good top 3. But two months in, i'm wondering how bad my ERA and WHIP will suffer tonight.:(
Re: The OFFICIALLY OFFICIAL Fantasy Sports General Chat ThreadŽ
I'm starting Cliff Lee, and sitting Lohse.
Lee is winless, and Lohse was amazing in April...I'm hoping the Phils offense plays well and Lee gets a dominant win.
In my H2H league my pitching has been amazing...winning all 9 categories. My hitters are behind in every offensive category except Steals tho...I need avg and OBP bad.
Re: The OFFICIALLY OFFICIAL Fantasy Sports General Chat ThreadŽ

If you need steals, Campana. If not, I would go with Alonso
Re: The OFFICIALLY OFFICIAL Fantasy Sports General Chat ThreadŽ
Picking up Harper today worked out nicely :)
