The 2016 FGM Playoffs Unfold
« on: August 22, 2016, 12:29:28 PM »
After a competitive season that saw the improvement of several franchises, the 2016 FGM playoffs are upon us.  The race to the playoffs were highlighted by some spirited deadline deals, some last minute free agent additions, and waiver wire activity. 

In the American League, the :OAK: are matched up against the :TEX:.  Both teams are led by FGM veterans in Miller Time and rcankosy, and it figures to be a very competitive battle between two AL West teams!  The :OAK: begin their quest to become FGM's first back-to-back champion as they defend their 2015 World Series Championship.  The :TEX: look to improve on their Cinderella run of a year ago--a run that saw them reach the AL Conference Finals.

In the National League, the :STL: return to the playoffs under the guidance of a new GM in RyanJames5.  The :STL: are a former FGM champion, having won in 2013.  The 2016 :STL: come into the Wildcard Round with the second best regular season record as they finished three games behind NL Central :CHC: with a record of 126-30-0.  They will be heavily favored over the :NYM:. The :NYM: had a change in leadership during the season, and under the guidance of speedster18431, the :NYM: look to defy the odds and advance to the NLDS.

The other teams involved in the playoffs will be:

American League Division Champions

AL Central -- :CHW:
AL East -- :BAL:
AL West -- :SEA:

National League Division Champions

NL Central -- :CHC:
NL East -- :PHI:
NL West -- :SF:

Congratulations to all!!! :win:

Should be interesting finishes in both leagues:
National
Mets have a 174 pt. lead with two starters available for the finale. The Cards have no starters available on Sunday. Can they have a big day at the plate?

American
Oakland has a 400+ point lead and Luis Perdomo on the mound Sunday. Texas has 2 remaining starts and 4 SP available. Which 2 will he choose and will the big bats be able to overcome the deficit?

Good luck to all!

  • Daddy: If you think its the AA guys send me a pm.
    Today at 02:40:07 PM
  • Daddy: Also... Ive got a nice private island full of beautiful women to sell you. Pay me upfront and i will send you its coordinates. We call it the Virgin Daddy Islands. $5k reserves it for your future.
    Today at 02:41:59 PM
  • dbreer23: Take two to tango, though. Most owners with adequate or surplus SP aren't interested in prospects as they're trying to win now.
    Today at 02:42:54 PM
  • Daddy: Agreed. But most does not equal all.
    Today at 02:45:09 PM
  • Braves155: My issue in LIVE currently is having Strider/Alcantara/Giolito all on the long shelf, so I am more retooling than rebuilding
    Today at 02:46:48 PM
  • Daddy: Also agreed. Top quality pitching probably means not much depth. A few injuries can challenge you. Pitching other than top end pitching has been devalued in fantasy. Everyone wants the stud.
    Today at 02:49:24 PM
  • Braves155: But I myself could use some time on a nudie island with some hot women
    Today at 02:49:45 PM
  • Daddy: I here to tell you that ALL major league pitching is good pitching. A great hitter beats a terrible pitcher just 3 out of 10 times. Which means the worst pitchers > the greatest hitters.

  • STLBlues91: Ill be around the rest of the day for any talks

  • Brent: Greg Maddux had the best outlook.  He viewed himself as tye dealer/house and you had to beat him.  Just like in the casino, the house nearly always wins.
    Today at 04:33:51 PM
  • Brent: He had that view b/c of his father who was a blackjack dealer in Vegas.
    Today at 04:35:28 PM
  • Daddy: Yes @Brent!! That is it exactly. Pitching is the house & it always wins in the end.
    Today at 05:15:18 PM
  • Daddy: There shouldn't be many innings available in FA in dynasty fantasy leagues IMO. Thats guaranteed money! To hell with High A ball.
    Today at 05:21:23 PM
  • Daddy: Until someone starts a minor league baseball fantasy game or option. Maybe we can petition fantrax? I just dont think they will care for that.
    Today at 05:23:07 PM
  • Daddy: Neither should we (so much). Every league i see is MLB.

    Today at 05:26:33 PM
  • Braves155: The problem with the minors is not the system as a whole, it is some Farm Systems are more 'elite' at being able to produce talent than others. If you look across MLB teams you can pretty easily tell the great systems from the weaker systems and talent development
    Today at 05:57:14 PM
  • Braves155: With regard to pitching in the Minors...there is  method to the madness. It is all about what you make of it tho. I agree that it can seem certain type arms in the minors are a dime a dozen
    Today at 06:02:39 PM
  • Daddy: Mr Braves you are my guy. There isnt anything wrong with minor league studs or flops. I get it in REAL baseball.
    Today at 06:20:28 PM
  • Daddy: This is fantasy baseball. We dont generate revenue selling prospects and merchandising. Our top farms dont get a write up in Sports Illustrated.
    Today at 06:22:29 PM
  • Daddy: Load up on MLB guys, then near MLB guys, and only then is the quality of your prospects matter. Ya dig ;)
    Today at 06:24:36 PM
  • Brent: I over value minors to a fault, but I am softening on that stance.
