Great pickup!

TFIR has 111 points today from his pitchers alone! 52 points for RA Dickey's CGSO!

I'm raising the white flag!!

Nah, it's still way early. And a lot of lucky moves led to this temporary lead.

Come on, RA Dickey?

That's how you know you are on a roll. When you pick up a scrub like that and he becomes a superstar!

Over 30 points for Dickey today.

What is wrong with this picture?

R.A. Dickey - 255 FP
CC Sabathia - 213 FP
Cliff Lee- 149 FP

And they are talking about him starting the AS game now! He throws an 85 mph knuckler - that's crazy!!

TFIR with a 558 point lead, and it's not even July yet!
Can we declare him the first half winner, and reset the points?

I've seen bigger deficits made up, for sure.

That said, so much of this lead has been built on nothing but pure luck. Who could have possibly predicted the unreal seasons by RA Dickey, Chris Sale (sure, good prospect..but this good??), Mark Trumbo, Johan Santana.

Add in Michael Cuddyer and Martin Prado.

All of them have far exceeded what they were expected to do - and I was lucky enough to pick them up. Usually, a certain percent of pickups come through. This season, seems almost all of them have. A l ot of luck involved there.

Cliff Lee was at the game last night. I think I know the reason for his decline this year. It's not just Dominicans who lie about their age, apparently!

Lee has been useless in fantasy this year.

People blame run support, but his ERA is over 5 for June, and he has blown leads.

I wonder if anyone else has this problem. I set my lineup for the week on Sunday because of travel. Almost every time the lineup for Monday remains all week long if I do not check it during the week. Sort of aggravating.
