    Just curious, Renteria is not on the MLB IR, so how is he able to be on our IR? Everything I've seen has him listed as day-to-day.

    He didn't play and the Injured sign is there. The site won't even let you put him on ir if he is not injured. Isn't that legit enough.

    ok. I read the rules. And that is fine. I'll just switch Benson for Renteria. Which really is kinda stupid since I thought Benson was playing and Renteria has been out all week. It seems a little messed up in theory that the player who is supposedly pitching is on the 15 day ir and Renteria who has not played all week I am forced to play.

    I don't make the rules. I was just pointing out that he is not on the IR. Players are day to day all the time. He could play tomorrow unless he actually were on the MLB IR. It's not a perfect system by any means, but it's all we have to work with.

    BTW, Benson isn't on the IR either. He pitched just 4 days ago and is expected to pitch this week.

    Done.

    Hurry back fade, this new assignment at work is leaving me with less than zero time to myself, much less this league.

    I have one of the worst teams in the league and I'm 7-4. This is Crazy town.

    Kenny Rogers pitched a complete game shutout. I don't suppose I could get that lineup set.

    That would pretty much fit with my luck so far this season.

    Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the Cubs played an afternoon game on Friday, so that's why I didn't do your lineup for you.

    Phew! It turned out to be a miracle non-issue.

    Yeah, I found out there was an afternoon game as I was going to set my lineup, which was the cause of my frantic posting. That was a near disaster!

    I'll take my one point victory and run.

    :)

    You have to do it before 12pm EST (11am CST). Your lineup is taking effect, but it's for next week since you did it after the deadline. You and Rocketball seem to have trouble grasping this concept. ;)

    Capitol City is coming off a big win against the juicers, but I think I'll still look past this week anyway. :)

    It's not so much not grasping the concept as much as it's getting busy at work and not getting around to it until after 10AM Utah time.

    I probably deserve what I get, but I almost always at least get my lineup in before games start.
