2020 Fantasy RBI Super League Game Thread (reboot)

[Darky]

Darrell Evans shows way for Hollywood Star Whackers with 4 HRs, Hornsby blasts 3 from leadoff spot. Krukow goes the distance for complete game win. Game wasn't competitive as Empire lose 7th straight, FRBI record. Hollwood move into better playoff position heading into second half.

[Nacho]

3 total hits from Robinson/Mays/Aaron/Foxx. Damn.

I watched my game with my kids, and they enjoyed my excitement that Dickie had a big game.

That's pretty darn cool watching your team win with your kids and them being interested! Good family fun with this league as well. My son asks me how the Empire is doing so far and he watched the finals from the Arcade season on Twitch.

[Darky]

There's some spooky voodoo jinx on the Empire. Holy shit. I'm burning sage for my next game against the Old Stylers - I'll have it burning during the game. We need to win now to get in the playoffs.

YouTube replay coming up. Thanks to Ryno for watching the pregame and entire broadcast. And thanks to nomaaa for jumping in. Nice to have the chat going.

it's more fun to stream when you're not there by yourself

Seriously, why does my team suck so much?  Everyone has good hitter ratings but no one can actually seem to hit.

Another seriously question with your team is Doc Gooden. He's having the worst year I've ever seen him have. I thought your team would be in the top 4 right now. I can say that the team speed has been a problem for your team with double plays and many guys thrown out at third or home. Beef's team has the same problem with team speed, but his guys make up for that with those high volume innings.

Week 10

[Nacho]

Wow, great game against the Hollywood Starwhackers. My outfield really showed off their arms in this game. Not sure I've ever seen so many guys gunned down at 2nd base from the OF in one game.

Also I'm sure that we've had plenty of pitchers it inside-the-parkers. Would be interested to see the stats on it.

Cy Young has pitched like garbage all year. Might have to take a look at the waiver wire.

[ryno]

Bert had a rough first game or so.  So much so I almost dropped him.   Glad I didn't.  He and Mike Scott are missing barrels and keeping Bedrosian and Nando fresh

[fightonusc]

We'd like to announce that first base coach Big Ed Delahanty has been relieved of his duties after being found with a mostly drunk quart of rye in his uniform after the game. He was fired during the train ride home and was last seen walking near Niagara Falls.

[ryno]

Shit.  He should have went with PBR wedding brew.  32 percent abv

[Darky]

Pabst Blue Ribbons record second straight mercy rule win with 21-4 rout over UHF CH.6 in six innings. Bert Blyleven tied a FRBI strikeout record by fanning 4 hitters in six innings of work in which he only gave up 4 runs off 11 hits. PBR has now outscored their opponents 41-7 in the past two games. Ultimate Chicago has now lost 4 straight.

[Darky]

BB Kings mercy rule Canada in 6 with outstanding pitching and consistent hitting along with big inning to put Canada away. Gooden continues to mysteriously struggle, as well as preseason favorite for the playoffs, Canada. BB Kings remain in 3rd place and one game behind first place teams PBR and Beefy Masters. Canada still in good position for the last wildcard spot.


*Boxscore edited for accuracy

Empire blow late lead to High Fives. High Fives bullpen and clutch hitting at bottom of lineup helps them to 3rd win. Despite new look Empire with EDavis trade and two free agent signings, Empire lose 8th in a row, FRBI record.

[Shooty]

How did we both have Eric Davis on our team in the boxscores?

I thought I made the changes in the database and I know I did. However, I think I forgot to manually insert the new player (Marris) into the roster as well as edit the lineup according to the changes you made. I could'a swore I did all that and that I want to blame a glitch in the database. Sorry about the fuck up there - I need to get my shit together and be more professional and precise. Will fix later. FUCK!!!!

[Darky]

Also, traded players and their new teams begin with fresh new stats. That's how the database works, but the former players stats remain on their original teams.

Just gonna do some shit at the gym, fix the errors in the database, score the last two games and we'll be good to go for week 11 on the scheduled time.
