[Nero Cain]

I got owned this week

[Kmd4390]

Nero 78-45-9 (8-3)
Joe 72-52-8 6.5 GB (7-3-1)
Kilga 68-57-7 11 GB (6-5)
Rhinox 51-77-4 29.5 GB (3-8)

Sharon 77-48-7 (7-4)
Kmd 64-59-9 12 GB (6-4-1)
D3f 49-76-7 28 GB (4-7)
Ninetales 42-87-3 37 GB (2-9)

Big shakeup this week with Nero and I both getting killed by Kilga and Sharon. Kilga has passed me in the playoff race (although Im a half game better in matchup based standings) and tightened up the race for Division 1. Sharon has taken over complete command of Division 2.

Interesting note, Kilga and I play each other this week as the last team in and first team out of the playoffs.

[Kilgamayan]

Pretty sure I used up all of my home runs for the season last week and that I'll be easy pickings in that category going forward. :V

[Kmd4390]

I activated Muncy from IL but with Civale and Fried going on, I'm up to 11 again

[Groose Caboose]

Can we get a decision on how entry into the playoffs is going to work? It’s starting to look like weekly win/loss vs categories is going to make a difference on who gets in.

[Kmd4390]

Nero 81-52-11 (8-4)
Joe 79-56-9 3 GB (8-3-1)
Kilga 75-62-7 8 GB (7-5)
Rhinox 57-83-4 27.5 GB (3-8-1)

Sharon 83-54-7 (7-4-1)
Kmd 69-66-9 13 GB (6-5-1)
D3f 56-79-9 26 GB (5-7)
Ninetales 46-94-4 38.5 GB (2-10)

Division 1 tightens up even more. And it's Joe who would be most hurt by categories if that's what we do. He'd be second in the division with the best record in the entire league. Kilga would have the final wild card either way

In Division 2, Sharon has control but I'm not far behind.

[Nero Cain]

the slide is mostly my fault for being lazy and not playing the WW but damn dropping 3 in a row

[Groose Caboose]

The weeks not even half way over yet and you could easily catch up in several categories. I only really have SB and TB on lock, probably RBI too.

[Kmd4390]

Nero 86-59-11 (8-5)
Joe 86-61-9 1 GB (9-3-1)
Kilga 83-66-7 5 GB (8-5)
Rhinox 61-91-4 28.5 GB (3-9-1)

Sharon 93-56-7 (8-4-1)
Kmd 75-72-9 17 GB (6-5-2)
D3f 62-85-9 30 GB (5-7-1)
Ninetales 48-104-4 46.5 GB (2-11)

Division 1 continues to tighten up. Joe is now 1.5 games better but trails Nero by 1 category. Kilga also closes the gap a little more this week. Division 2 looks to be all Sharon's for now.

[Groose Caboose]

So I sat DeSclafani under the assumption that we’re hopefully going to seed playoffs on week to week matchups and not categories (especially since I think that’s how they were previously seeded). Is this going to be the case?

[Nero Cain]

Sure man though there seems to not be much of a difference between cat and one win but maybe one win is a lil more fair?

[Groose Caboose]

I don’t think it’ll make a difference of who’s going to make it into the playoffs but it looks like it could make a difference in overall seeding.

[Nero Cain]

Yeah u would be top seed right?

[Groose Caboose]

As of right now yeah.

[Kmd4390]

Joe 96-61-11 (10-3-1)
Nero 91-65-12 4.5 GB (8-6)
Kilga 85-76-7 13 GB (8-6)
Rhinox 64-99-5 35 GB (3-10-1)

Sharon 101-59-8 (9-4-1)
Kmd 85-74-9 15.5 GB (7-5-2)
D3f 68-90-10 32 GB (6-7-1)
Ninetales 48-114-4 54 GB (2-12)

Joe now leads Division 1 regardless of format.

I moved back into the 4 seed.

Don't forget it's a long week with the All Star Break.

[Kilgamayan]

Well that week sucked all sorts of ass.

[Nero Cain]

I have dropped 5 in a row now. Just wow

[Groose Caboose]

I’m gonna have a pretty bad week if the whole Yankees Red Sox series gets postponed. Yikes.

[Kilgamayan]

At least this fantasy week is two weeks long, so there'll still be another real-time week to make up for lost games. (Also my team is in total shambles right now.)

[Groose Caboose]

Oh jeez I didn’t even realize you had Acuña Jr…

[Kilgamayan]

Yup! .-.

[Kmd4390]

My IL Is still at 10 lol

[Kmd4390]

Joe 105-64-11 (11-3-1)
Nero 99-67-14 4.5 GB (9-6)
Kilga 88-85-7 19 GB (8-7)
Rhinox 66-107-7 41 GB (3-11-1)

Sharon 103-68-9 (9-5-1)
Kmd 93-77-10 9.5 GB (8-5-2)
D3f 77-92-11 25 GB (7-7-1)
Ninetales 51-122-7 53 GB (2-13)

After 15 weeks, category standings keep Nero close in Division 1 at 4.5 games back (2.5 GB in head to head standings) and give him a comfortable lead over Kilga despite being just one game ahead H2h.

In Division 2, Sharon has a 9.5 category lead and only 0.5 games H2h. She's still benefiting from categories, but only slightly now.

In the Wild Card race, I pulled ahead in either format, but it's still close.

The top two teams face off this week. Sharon vs Joe. Nero has an opportunity to get back into the top two overall, maybe even taking the division lead back in category based standings as he faces Ninetails. I'll be looking to close the gap in Division 2 with my matchup vs Rhinox.

[Kilgamayan]

tbh the rest of the season is just seed-shuffling at this point, I am not making it back into the upper half

[D3f3nd3r]

If we do H2H I'm only 1.5 games out of a playoff spot. I'm apparently on a five-week unbeaten streak, so there's definitely a chance if we do that. I'm out by 15.5 categories if we go that way, though, so I'd need a lot more help there.
