2014 Fantasy Baseball Thread: Leading the league in Quality Posts

[Headspace]

Quality Starts is saving my fantasy steam.

Cueto has 7 quality starts in 7 starts and is 3-2 this season.

Corey Kluber just lost 3-4 after allowing on 1 ER and 13Ks and going 8IP.

Thanks Moss

Cueto has been absurd. #1 fantasy pitcher

my pitching is garbage aside from Jose Fernandez

[Headspace]

Cueto does it again, against the tough COL line up.

Still looking for some RP, Davis got hurt a couple days after you sent me the trade offer Bregs, so I didn't do anything with it. I'm lagging behind in Saves, so looking for some releif pitching that gets save opportunities, basically anyone on the offensive side of my team is can be used as bait, no ones untouchable so long as the price is right!

I have four good closers (well, three and Lindstrom) and will trade any of them for a decent bat (top 150ish player) or two for a better bat. Could use some speed.

Also your team name is... unfortunate.

bizarre trade

[Aragon of Odin]

I have to ask what's so bizarre about it? And I ask because I'm new to fantasy baseball, this is only my 2nd time in a league and my 1st time doing roto.

My thinking behind it was when I look at the standings, I'm getting my ass kicked in ERA/SV/K, so obtaining both closers addresses all my needs in the pitching department. While in my offensive department I've been doing pretty good, and really I've been doing so without C.Davis and Rajai, since Chris has been hurt a couple weeks, and really hasn't been as productive as I was hoping anyways, I figure with Abreu/Morneau holding down 1B for me, losing Davis really isn't that big of a loss, especially at the expense of addressing a growing need for me.

It's not a bad trade per se, because you got two good closers in return for Rajai Davis who is mainly helping in SB and Chris Davis who should be helping a lot in R/HR/RBI. It's bizarre to see closers traded for impact hitters.

Closers are really only helping you in SV. If they are good, they are helping some in WHIP/ERA/K, but with their low volume of IP it's fairly inconsequential. You just have to keep in mind we are only 1/4 of the way through the season, so you might be missing Davis if/when Abreu cools off.

6 fucking people on my DL on my team.

[Boyiee]

I have absolutely no fucking clue what I'm doing.

[Headspace]

Is...is it over?

[Cail]

Is...is it over?

Did I win by not paying attention at all?

omg you hung on by a point

Would've been nice if Cards didn't pull Wainwright. Damn them and their postseason.

But you had a crazy ass last day. I thought I was safe being up 2.5 points.

I actually grabbed the lead for a few days like a week ago.

Congrats to Heady on winning the league, and thanks to those of you that actually maintained your teams
