Hopefully gotten some good information from us over these last, we've done this like seven months now. Please leave a number of stars. A nice comment does go a long way towards helping us out. Jeff, we got a full four weeks left in the baseball season. If you're going to go in your

league, it's time to go now. Yeah, that's right. It is, it's past time even. You should have

already been looking at, you know, what categories you need to max out in. I mean, it's not,

I mean, it might be too late, but keep grinding. out in. I mean, it's not, I mean, it might be too late,

but keep grinding, keep trying. I mean, but every move you make should be thinking, where am I

going to gain this next point if you're in a categorical leave? I pretty much, the one main

event where I'm kind of on the outskirts of competing, I pretty much mapped it out today,

like how many points I can gain, where I can gain them, where that gets me, you know, what my actual upside is. And it's, there that it's definitely worth grinding hard. So it's, it's a good, good dose of reality to see if you can actually make a run or not. One of my main events, I really can't make a run. I'm still playing. But today was the first day I really kind of focused my time. I did have a lot of time to do fab, but I focused my fab on the teams that can really make a move. Yeah, I think that's a good call. And, you know, I did the same. You know, every Sunday, it seems like my main event team that's very competitive loses five points. The last two weeks, it's really kind of crazy. Are you throwing a lot of bad two start starters, and they all blow up on Sunday? I mean, all pitchers are bad right now. Don't you know that? That's true. Unless your name is Robbie Ray or Garrett Cole, like it's just rough. Goal. Robbie Ray is insane. Yeah, I mean, yeah, it's tough. We actually only lost two and a half points, but then Zimmerman and Tanner Bell gained five.

So it was, I mean, yeah, it's tough. We actually only lost two and a half points, but then Zimmerman and Tanner Bell gained five. So it was just the double whammy. Corey Klobber, you know, okay, he's got the strike. That's great. I look up, okay, they got out of that fourth inning. Great. Now they've got the lead. Oh, wait, he didn't get out of the fourth inning? Yeah. What? I was doing the football show today on Sirius XM, so I didn't, I missed the pitching change. Like, oh, come on. Nice two-step for this week, Corey. At least I only spent a huge chunk of fab change, not even huge, but big enough at this time of year. Did you, did you hang on to him or drop him back? Held on to him just because, I mean, I have plenty of other cuts. I had, I had the blocked one,

so I was able to cut him because, you know, as in the one that blocks you. He's the one who

blocks. He was. He had a couple of good starts and there we picked him up and he exploded and that went on the aisle.

So that's that's prime Brett Anderson right there. You know, real you in, then get blown up, then find a way to get hurt. And we'll call it. We'll see you in 2022, Brett. Well, I won't see you, but everybody else will see him. Well, I won't either. Josh Fleming, I dropped. I dropped, I lost Nimo.

So, yeah, I mean.

I just, I just got that one.

Oh. Well, I won't either. Josh Fleming, I dropped. I lost Nimmo. So, yeah, I mean. I just got that one. Oh, good. Good. Well, it was literal and a joke. So that's, those are the best. Kind of a good point. Like, unless you have a star player that's like out like out just 10 days, I think almost everybody that goes in the aisle right now is a cut from me. Like it's. That There's a few elites and a few guys like, you know, maybe he's just taking a start off or something like that. A few like outliers that I would keep. But for the part, if someone goes in the aisle now, they're out a couple weeks that, you know, we're talking 50% of the season left. Like I, it's got to be a real extreme case for me, not just to cut the person. Yeah. Keep Gileito cut Nemo. That, that, that's, that's the range right there. I'm even probably going to activate him, but did you keep Jack Flaherty? No, I cut him a week ago. That's good. I cut this week too. Well, and he was a subject of bidding in that league where I cut him like uh and you know you're gonna get

like one start probably if it's a start even it's gonna be like three innings right like I just

I looked at it too and they're like it sounded like he's gonna begin a throwing program this week like

that means he's at least two or three weeks off pitching in a major league game right yeah I think
