Great win, DDD.

Why he is still not included in the hall of fame?

Because he’s Canadian.

just kidding, Genie. Let’s let him retire first.

LOL. I see. Sorry, I didn't know one needs to retire first lol. But with his record surely he is qualified for that list, right?

It’s debatable.

I guess it’s kinda hard to hit a home run when you get walked four times.

 

[Tanko]

4 walks = 4 bases = HR RIGHT?

Tsk tsk. Sorry for the loss, DDD.

Diggity: 20-75, -0.86

JOEY VOTTO (CIN) +405 (BM)

 

[JDS]

Jerky 6-15 +6.61 units

Joshua Jung Texas Rangers +400

 

[Tanko]

Tanko 5-14, 1.40
Matt Olson +235 Betrivers

 

[KVB]

KVB: 0-6, -6.00

Nelson Cruz Over .5 HRs +320
DK

How do we not pick batters from this game?

I think this is the last play I made, I think. I can't find one after and this one and he hit a ball off the top of the wall but not out, Tanko reported a triple. I saw a Harbaugh GIF I made...lol. I'll look more and confirm.

So I think it's:

KVB: 0-7, -7.00

Justin Turner OVER .5 HRs +550
DK

Only one game left to pick from. So at least I didn't have to worry about the park too much in deciding this, lol.

Justin T gonna give us one tonight.

 

[DiggityDaggityDo]

Diggity: 20-76, -1.86

Max Muncy (LAD) +322 (BM)

 

[Tanko]

Seems like its feast or famine on my pick. Olson 0-4 yesterday.

We should incorporate a penalty when your pick goes hitless.
I'd be -50 units if we did it.

Right?

Shouldn't count for walks though. Should be a bonus if your pick gets walked EVERY at bat and a penalty for 0 hits.

Then again, strikeouts are different. Back in the day, a strikeout was considered a failure. Nowadays, because so many swing for the fences, a strikeout is more like the cost of doing business on your way to homeruns.

We shouldn't penalize the strikeouts as, in that sense, they have become a necessary evil.
