TWILOLB 5/31/2016

Our latest installment of TWILOLB with special guest host Clayton "The Peyton Manning of Baseball" Kershaw.

Epic Showdown of the Week

This week's ESOTW saw a throw down between UnderHochevars vs. Here's My Donation. Unconfirmed reports from the Donation camp that the manager was at the lake all weekend and wasn't even sure the showdown was this close.

UnderHochevars left the gates strong with a 25 point lead after Monday play. However this screenshot of UnderHochevars lineup should speak for itself:


Decimated by injuries and excuses UnderHochevars was somehow able to maintain the lead all week. The official Crap Your Bed Day (Sponsored by Domino's) in the matchup was Thursday with UnderHochevars hanging a mere 23.08 total points on the board. However not to be outdone was Here's My Donation's 10.75 total Thursday points. With solid Saturday and Sunday showings Here's My Donation pulled within 13 points. UnderHochevars was able to hold off the Sunday charge with a pair of decent pitchers scoring a victory 293.84 - 280.25, moving UnderHochevars to 4-4 on the year.


Get on the Bus Triple A Players of the week.


Pitchers
  • David Robertson - HvuSnMyBall - 0.2 IP -2.33 points 6 ER, Ahh yes the Meltdown vs the Royals. It was a thing of beauty.
  • Erasmo Ramierz - Here's My Donation - 1.1 IP -1.67 points. Second Whitesox pitcher on the bus this week and another victim of the Royals, blasted for 4ER in the Bottom of the 8th ending with a 414 ft blast by Hoz.
  • Mike Fiers - 3.2 IP 7 ER, pounded for 7 runs vs the Angels on Friday.
Erasmo No Bueno



Batters

  • Michael Conforto - Expos - 1 for 12 with a single. .237 OPS during this stretch. I could get a .237 OPS just showing up to the ballpark.
  • Erick Aybar - SkippyJonJones - 3/11 this week for 1.75 points. He got hit by a pitch on Friday in the foot with Xrays negative. Begged to be put on the DL so he doesn't have to play a few games. Can't say I blame him, after all he does play for the Braves.
  • Billy Burns - Tower of Power - 3/21 for 2.25 total points. Can't say Billy hasn't been hustlin though.
    Billy Burns seen here hustling.

Hot Stove Moves of the week



  • Underhochaevars picks up Matt "Serious Face Pictures" Cain for his May 27th start vs Colorado. Cain has a serious outing netting 1.67 points in 1.2 innings of work and is now on the DL. Gotta stretch that hammy Cain.
  • PattyV picks up Hector Santiago for his 5/25 start against Texas. Hector then picks up -0.17 points in a solid 2.1 IP. Attaboy Hector.
  • Tyler White Heat Check - Owned Percentage up to 13%. The news is traveling fast about this kid from Houston. 11 points in the past 4 days, that speaks for itself. HvuSnMyBall can now call the White for Greg Holland move a good one. The sky is the limit at this point.

Matt Cain and his Spirit Animal.

Rundown 4/10/2017

Horstman Master's Dominance, Tower continues his Yahoo league excellence, Baseball week 1 wrapup, that and more in this week's rundown. The Masters One could argue Horstman wasn't even paying attention to Season 3 League Of Legends. He shut all that noise down with a convincing Masters Championship foursome netting him 1000 fake internet points and 5 minutes of League of Legend fame. The winning foursome of Hideki Matsuyama, Rory McIlroy, Jordan Spieth, and Justin Rose pulled away from the rest of the field. Horstman scored a 100 point bonus for picking Rose who finished 2nd in the tournament. NHL Champion The only legend who showed up for the NHL draft completes his wire to wire run as NHL leader and champion. Tower basks in the glory of another league championship under his belt. Gras' team started hot in day one of the championship matchup netting 19.20 points (not even sure my team ever scored that many points in one day). Gras continued to build a lead headi...

Rundown 6/12/2017 - Jcomp edition

It was a big week across the athletic landscape as several sports and collegiate softball crowned champions. Nadal finished an all-time great run through the French Open, the Penguins won the Stanley Cup, and Lebron ended talk of the Warriors and an undefeated postseason. Meanwhile, Patty took the LOL season lead for all of 36 hours until TJS could finish his 100 hour work week and get back to his computer to “adjust” the scoring. We’re 12 days into the second streak month of the LOL year. I feel a bit like Bob Gibson probably felt in 69 after the whiners got their way and the rules were changed. Luckily enough we’re entering prime Cricket season which, outside of Russian Basketball, is my sweetspot. You guys better get ready for a load of Chris Gayle Hot Takes. Triple Frown We’ve seen six different horses win the six triple crown races since American Pharoah in 2015. While being a borderline sports degenerate is a necessity in the League of Legends, do any of us really care abou...

Teams are settling in, thejoestory has taken his spot right near the top of the overall standings, Tower has been going on and on about how he wins the leagues, and EvulMonkey has made his annual week 1 NFL lineup change followed by 14 weeks of nothingness. That's right legends fall is around the corner, CFB has kicked off and NFL starts this week. Football season is back. Let's dive into the rundown. Baseball Baseball Playoffs have started leaving some legends to ask...we are playing baseball. Yes legends indeed we are quickly winding down another season of Baseball. Eight teams of champions have made it thus far and are battling for the coveted Baseball league bonus modifiers. If you ask Tower the bonus points are in the bag. TJS Prediction : Hits for K's vs Lime in the Coconut championship showdown for all the points. Hits for K's has defeated the Coconuts twice this season and sho...
