Power Rankings Week 5

And here we go again with another week of Power Rankings. This weeks MVP is Matt Kemp of Furry Balls. Kemp hit .407, had an OPS of .989, he scored 7 runs and knocked in 11 while also stealing 6 bases. The LVP finally moves over onto a new team. This week it's AJ Pierzynski of Captain Delux, he hit .091 with 2 hits and one RBI and an OPS of .221...way to go douche.

And away we go with the power rankings. This weeks winner, and our first 2 time winner of a week is: Spiff



Spiff finally moved into the top spot in the Year to Date rankings as well. This week's anna molly points out that Meatloaf Sandwich, while 3rd in the actual league standings, ranks next to last in Total Year Power Rankings. So is his record just a matter of playing shitty teams thus far, or is he a matchup genius? Who knows...bask

Power Rankings Week 4

It's time once again for our weekly installment of power rankings. We'll get right to it. This week's MVP is Lance Berkman of Captain Delux's team...way to go Meiz. Last week he hit .455 with 4HR, 12RBI, 7Runs, and stole a base...he also had an OPS of 1.653, congrats mr. berkman.(i still hate you)...The LVP for the week is Khalil Greene of McNamee's Miller Lite...2nd week in a row for EP to have the LVP, congrats that's quite an accomplishment. (do you still think Khalil is worth more than Bobby Crosby?)...Mr. Greene's numbers for the week were .145avg on 4for27 and .435OPS, and he had 1 RBI...super weak.

On to the power rankings, this week's top team is: Got to 3rd with Longoria



Year to Date, it's still The Riot in 1st place, with very little movement this week....bask

Power Rankings Week 3

So as the season goes on, I've decided to add a weekly player MVP and LVP award. Recognizing the guy who was the best player for the week, and the worst "owned" player for the week, according to yahoo's weekly rankings. And I'm just talking about position players, so Eric Gagne is not eligible for LVP honors. This week the MVP was Connor Jackson, on Furry Balls. I wish I had a c-jax bobblehead. His stats for last week: .480 avg, 1.599 OPS, 10 R, 3 HR, 10 RBI, and 1SB, congrats Connor. The LVP was Carlos Delgado, of Mcnamee's Miller Lite. His stats were .045 avg, .259 OPS, 0 R, 0 HR, 3 RBI, 0 SB. Awesome.

Anyway, on to the league power rankings. The results are below, but this weeks overall winner was: Spiff.



Year to date The Riot is still in 1st, but there have been a lot of changes behind that...bask.

Power Rankings Week 2

This week we introduce another section, the Yearly power rankings. Which is a running total. I thought about adding up categories as opposed to adding up rankings from the previous week, and decided I was too lazy to do that. So it's a running total. Anyway, on to the Weekly Winner and it is: Furry Balls


Year to date The Riot is still leading...or something

Power Rankings Week 1

So here is the first edition of Power Rankings this season. Here is a quick summary of how I do the rankings. Basically, if you had the most points for a category, you get a 10. Why a 10, because there are 10 teams moron. If you came in last you get a 1. If there is a tie between 3 people for an 8 point spot, they all get 8 points, and the next team gets 5...etc etc etc. I've broken it down into Hitting and pitching and overall. This week's top Overall team was: The Riot

Fantasy Hero (s) of Opening Day

So here is my fantasy baseball hero for opening day. Mark Buerhle not only gave up 7 runs in less than 2 innings, he did so with complete disregard for the effect it would have on my FMLB team. Ass. It's hard to believe that this moron ever threw a no-hitter.



To quote from the bible "he is considered an efficient pitcher, pitching quickly and keeping his pitch count low." Well, no kidding, when you can't finish 2 innings, that's pretty quick work, and keeps your pitch count low.

Honorable mention goes to Jeff Francis who walked like 6 guys and gave up 5 runs, in a little over 2 innings before the game got washed away.

Who are your opening day heroes (s)? AND WHY?

TP has first basemen

My team is awesome.
