Daily Albies update: 1/3, 2 R, 1 HR, 2 RBI, 1.833 OPS. 

Since his return:

8/22 (.364), 2 HR, 7 R, 5 RBI, 3 SB, not 100% sure what his OPS but it's definitely somewhere around 1.100+
 

".159 Ozzie Albies." that might be my team name next year.

As opposed to seasons past where I had a competitive team only to choke mightily right at the end this year was a welcome respite.

Chokers all of them from beginning to end.

was just checking out the PR15 for funsies, and look what I saw:

I have three of the top 8 2B, including Ozzie Albies checking into at 11.20, tied for second best. Neato!

Then I decided to go check out the SP, and you'll never guess what I found:

I have four of the top 9! and that doesn't include #3 Kyle Hendricks (joining my team tomorrow) or #4 Trevor Bauer (just traded him away a week ago). How cool! But what I couldn't figure out was the omission of the greatest pitcher in baseball, Zack Grienke. I mean surely his PR15 was somewhere around it's normal 25.00, right? well, i kept scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling, and FINALLY i saw him!

he was all the way down at #87. but how could this be I asked myself? Zack Grienke makes Pedro Martinez look like Hideki Irabu, while Ozzie Albies makes Freddy Galvis look like Rod Carew. HOW CAN THIS BE???

@UTPhil2006 here's the deal- next year you spend all season publicly trashing all of my players; they thrive, my team wins the league, and we split the profits. you in?

Ha was just about to say I’m the perfect anti jinx for you

You’re up 17

my team is ice cold and i could drop in a lot of categories over the next 4 days. it aint over by any means. especially with how hot derka's team is. me dropping plus him moving up the AVG and OPS categories is a recipe for an upset. ive done the math!

heh, he's only up 12 now, i've made up 5 points since this post, and have passed fawesome in multiple categories. LFG!!!

If you win the title I’ll pay the whole damn league

how about $350/$150/$50 to make payment easier.

fawesome is going to win the title. congrats. your team has been dominant all season, and you pretty much ran through the league from beginning to end. 2020, amirite?

assuming i don't drop 17 points tomorrow, i am going to finish in second. bully for me. i'd like to thank UTPhil and his amazing reverse jinx powers. Ozzie Albies ftw.

either BO or NL will finish third, and will win the prize of not having to pay anybody. like my grandad used to say, "it's better than a kick."

now then, if fawesome doesn't mind, i'd like to take money from HG, Phil, and whatever the fuck hitby calls himself now, because we're special friends like that. those three can pay me, and the rest of the jabronis in this league can pay fawesome, and this blood soaked, nightmarish hellscape of a season can finally be put to rest. everyone cool with that?

Still lots of baseball left. It ain’t over til Benji Molina sings.

That said, you gotta pick 2 of the 3 people mentioned if you finish 2nd. 6 people will pay 1st place. 2 will pay 2nd. And 3rd keeps his buyin.

Or you can still have 3 people pay you. You’ll just have to send your buyin to the 1st place winner.

Good luck tomorrow, gents! It’s been quite a ride.

then i'll take HG and Phil, since hitbygailthesnail'scamacho is a fellow Arsenal fan. that is, assuming i don't blow a 17 point lead in one day.
