The Syndicate

I'll shoot out a PM tomorrow since there seems to be interest.

Would there be any interest in doing a revised form of EZ Fantasy Baseball this year? Sorry for the last minute notice but with hockey on my mind, I forgot about baseball.

Metalmarsh picked up his third weekly win (a shared win but still a win) in the final day of the season while picking up his title as Season Champ. Well done sir! The battle for second place came down to a tie-breaker. Sloonei's Braves scored one run, while my Yankees scored two, leaving us tied. Sloonei's first tie-breaker team (the Phillies) scored five runs while my first tie-breaker team (the Rays) scored six. Everyone else held onto their positions in the standings.

Thanks for playing everyone, especially those of you who stuck with it most of the way through the season. We'll see if I'm feeling up to running this thing again next season. It was an awful lot of work but I still had fun.

11. MovingPictures07*** (712 runs)
12. birdwithteeth11* (682 runs)
13. Russtifinko* (645 runs)

On the final day of the season, there aren't many tight races on our leaderboard. The battle for 6th, 7th, and 8th are close enough to provide some excitement if enough runs are scored. The closest match is for 2nd place. Sloonei has a 1-run lead over me. Today will determine who comes out on top there. Metalmarsh got his second weekly win for the season and might possibly finish the year as the only player scoring over 800 runs. We'll see if that comes to fruition.

Looks like our season champ is making a run at his second weekly win. Because, why not just show off during the last full week of the season? :P

I pre-randomized all the Week 27 picks this week and I also randomized the order of everyone's tie-breaker teams. The tie-breaker teams will be used if players are tied after the final game of the season. If the tie-breaker teams are needed, the tie-breaker teams go head-to-head- whoever's tie-breaker team scores more gets the higher final spot. Tie-breaker teams won't actually add any points to your score. If both players are still tied after using their T1 tie-breaker team, we'll go for the T2 teams, and so on.

If you want to change your Week 27 team and/or the order of your tie-breaker teams, let me know by PM or in this thread. Remember that Week 27 is really just the final day of the season.

Sloonei may not have gotten the team he wanted from the randomizer but he did manage to avoid the Yankees.

Week 26 Team Picks:
AllAlongTheBoardwalk- OAKLAND A'S*
birdwithteeth11- MINNESOTA TWINS*

Sloonei continues his ascent, bumping me out of the #2 spot and snagging the weekly win. Everyone else remains the same, except that Epi edges ahead out of his tie with AllAlongTheBoardwalk

I've been sitting on them for too long, thinking they might give me a late boost for the win. Serves me right. I just hope Cincinnati is as pitiful as ever this week so I can hang onto 2nd place.

CHICAGO CUBS!

It seems to be a low-scoring week for many of us so far:

MID-WEEK 25 SCORES:
1. Epignosis (19 runs)
2. Turnip Head (15 runs)

It's time to make your picks. WEEK 26 IS THE FINAL FULL WEEK OF THE SEASON, SO THIS IS YOUR LAST CHANCE TO PICK A TEAM FOR A FULL WEEK! Week 27 is really just the final day of the season. We'll still pick for it but just be aware that this is the last time you are picking a team for a full week's worth of games. Picks are due by noon (EST) on Sunday.

Here are the team picks. Metalmarsh did not submit a pick, so it will be interesting to see if the randomizer holds him back at all. With his lead, I doubt it will matter. I on the other hand am already hating myself for picking the Giants over the Royals.

Week 25 Team Picks:
AllAlongTheBoardwalk- SAN DIEGO PADRES*
birdwithteeth11- TAMPA BAY RAYS*
Draconus- MIAMI MARLINS*
Epignosis- ST. LOUIS CARDINALS
G-Man- SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS
JaggedJimmyJay- SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS
Metalmarsh89- OAKLAND A'S*
MovingPictures07- SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS*
Russtifinko- BALTIMORE ORIOLES*
S~V~S- TAMPA BAY RAYS*
Sloonei- NEW YORK METS
Spacedaisy- MIAMI MARLINS*
Turnip Head- CHICAGO WHITE SOX*

*= Randomly Selected Team (player did not pick in time)

There's a new face in 3rd place. After a big week, Sloonei bumps S~V~S into 4th while making the final three weeks a three-way battle for 2nd. Metalmarsh is now our unofficial season winner. It's just a formality of playing out the remaining weeks before he can be crowned. In other news, JaggedJimmyJay got booted down to 6th place as Turnip Head slides up to 5th. That's right, the only person to submit each and every weekly team pick is now behind the guy who has had all but two of his picks randomized for you. Chew on that one for a little while. Spacedaisy also jumps up to 7th from 9th.

Week 24 Team Picks:

San Francisco for me. Tough choice between them and the Royals.

Here are the mid-week scores. At this rate, Sloonei may challenge our single week record of 58 points set back in Week 9 by S~V~S.

It was a pretty even week overall. TH and Dracnos swapped places and MP and BWT did the same. If I can't make up at least 15 points on MM this week, I'll concede defeat. I'm all but out of time to catch him.

*= Randomly Selected Team (player did not pick in time)

Our top 3 remain the same but at least myself and S~V~S are threatened by some big movers. With their tie for weekly winner, Sloonei jumps from 6th to 4th and JJJ from 7th to 5th. Our biggest drop came via Spacedaisy, who tumbled from 5th to 9th. Four full weeks and the final day of games remain. Who's going to lose steam first?

Looks like the Washington Nationals for me this week.

No mid-week scores this week, but here is the selection chart. Picks are due Sunday at noon (EST).

Quite a bit of movement this week. Draconus randomized a second consecutive weekly win and jumps from 8th to 4th, Sloonei drops from 4th to 6th, JJJ from 6th to 7th, BWT from 7th to 10th, but our bottom three remain the same. Only five full weeks and the final day of the season remain

Is it too early to declare Metalmarsh the winner yet? Seriously, his lead is just ridiculous. In other news this week: Draconus becomes just the second player to snag a fourth weekly win, S~V~S takes back second place from me, Sloonei inches closer in 4th, SD leapfrogs over two players and into 5th place, and poor Rustifinko is almost 200 points behind our leader.

With this week's picks, everyone has used the Boston Red Sox, making them the first team to be completely eliminated from use. With seven selections left, I'm sure we'll see several more teams getting used up.

**= Requested a team already used. Random team selected for them.

Turnip Head (or really, the randomizer) won Week 19. With seven full weeks and the final day of season play left, can anyone catch up to MM? It's going to take a series of bad weeks for him and a series of great weeks for anyone else.

I'm torn between six different teams right now. I guess I should consider myself lucky seeing how few options are left.

No mid-week scores this week. Just the selection chart. Get those picks in by noon (EST) on Sunday! We're all starting to run out of options, so the last eight weeks should be interesting!

The randomizer can be generous or cruel.

I had these picked Sunday afternoon but real life got in the way.

On a side note, would anyone be interested in EZ Fantasy Football if it was run this same way this season? Pick two teams each week until you use them all up and then pick any two teams you like on Week 17? Just curious if last year's format is favorable or if this format is more interesting.

Not much movement on the overall standings. I jumped into 2nd and Jimmy bumped up to 4th. With only a few weeks left, can anyone catch MM?

Baltimore.

Hey all, I don't have an updated chart or mid-week scores. Sorry for falling short this week.

Regardless, please get your picks in for next week by noon (EST) on Sunday.

Thanks!

Maybe I should let the randomizer pick my team every week.

I was pretty pissed that I forgot to pick a team during the wedding weekend. I was extra pissed to randomize myself the otherwise hapless Twins. Part way into tonight's game, I'm willing to stop complaining for a day or two.
