FYI we are stuck with weekly changes now since the season started (ESPN won't allow me to change the setting even if we wanted to)
it's okay though, we'll adjust to it

@NEEDcreations I don’t know why it didn’t dawn on me until just now but in theory say you have a guy who during the Monday night game (right after it locks) blows out his knee or has some other catastrophic injury. Did I see it right in that we can’t sub them out?
I’m just thinking to if a team like the Astros play something like 20 games in 21 days so in theory if you can’t swap players during the week playing the players who would be on the field the most would be the benefit right?
Or is there some exception?
This is why I wasn't in favor of switching from daily to weekly lineup changes... But the majority of the participants in our league wanted this change, so I went along with it...
@Undisciplined @chrisliss @Jer @Cje95 @realBitcoinDog @grayruby
I think the FAAB and larger league might have closed the loophole on infinite roster changes. maybe we don’t need once a week roster setting.
I was still able to substitute guys in today so idk what's going on
it’s just a gentleman’s agreement right?
no, it's supposed to be enforced by the settings now. So IDK what's going on, but it's a weird matchup length (1.5 weeks instead of just 1) so that's probably throwing everything off
the first week is an exception and treated as 1.5 weeks cuz of opening day
Yes
It just dawned on me that the issue I had was when I added one of my pitchers to the IL I wasn't able to pick anyone up in their place so essentially I just have an empty slot for pitchers the next 4 days because they didnt put him on the IL till after the add/drop time.
Yes waivers don’t go through until Monday.
Yeah, I see moves are still open. Do you think it is because the first week is actually a week and a half?
possibly
I don’t mind the current format, but I would be fine discussing a change. I’m pretty sure the commissioner can do that in season.
I watched it. I thought the broadcast and stories they told were entertaining, but the game was quite boring to me haha.
Yeah the game sucked. Yankees dominated. They were better in every phase of the game and caught a few breaks too with some cheap hits at timely moments.
@Undisciplined What is going on with your BIP pitching staff? 5 on the IL!
Is that not normal? My experience of fantasy baseball has been that every pitcher is constantly injured.
Btw, it appears to be 6 now.
Holy crap 6?!? yeah that’s kinda excessive lol
Maybe not to start the season
Well maybe mine will be healthy later then
The Dodgers playbook 👍
Hockey for me tonight.
But I want to watch more baseball this season will try to make it out to a few games this year
Who is your team?
Mets like Siggy. I don’t watch much regular season baseball and basketball because I refuse to pay the high subscription cost to watch on MSG
A good year to watch more Mets games haha
Only if Soto hits
I did not have 3 K's for Judge on my scorecard.
Webb has thrown some really good pitches but he has also left some over the plate and had a bit of bad luck.
Really leaning on the sinker.
Jays own Fried because they force him in the zone and don’t chase his junk. Giants clearly didn’t watch the tape.
They DFA'd poor Leo. He was around longer than I thought.
Pretty messy
Webb might want to try a first pitch breaking ball rather than continuing to throw sinkers leaking over the plate.
I tuned in. Baseball isn’t my favorite sport, but I do like it, and I do feel the magic of opening day. It’s very cool
Chief Petty Officer Geraldan or whatever took some chances on that anthem.
Didn’t catch that. My wife just got home and I was chatting with her.
Man, Oracle park is so gorgeous on a bright sunny day.
I need 1 more Fried K to hit my parlay.
@grayruby any idea why I can rarely see the sports market on Predyx? Ever run into that?
I can always see every other market.
Click props.
It was part of the last update. They need to fix that.
Many thanks
Speaking of parlays and gambling: did you see Wealthsimple was granted permission to offer prediction markets, with certain conditions? My son said their subreddit is losing their minds (in a negative way).
Did not hear that.
Odd considering their marketing is all around low fees and investing for the long term.
The gamblification of the entire world. Late stage fiat.
They’re interviewing Jazz while he’s playing defense. Wtf is going on
You can do that in baseball.
it’s just wild!
He's bad enough in the field.
What are the pitchers doing after each half inning? The umpire checking their hands for cheating materials?
For “sticky stuff”. They won’t do it every time they leave the mound.
yes
Watching the Yankees get introduced, and the guy screaming at the mic right before, reminds me of the scene from Silicon Valley where pied piper is getting pitched in the giants stadium
this isn’t quite what I’m looking for, but it’s part of it
Netflix broadcast has been good. Better than Apple.
My wife just said that.
Judge is the only guy the Giants can get out.
Webb has no called strikes on any pitch other than his slider.
Might be tipping.
Another season and my biggest complain
Can u please have a constant pitching graph and give me info and not design? thanks
I certainly am.
Somehow Webb is only averaging 16 pitches per inning?
Very efficient aside from the second going sideways.
What a story Barry Bonds told on the broadcast!
Apparently the Giants approach is swing at bad pitches and take pitches right down the middle.
