CRAZINESS 1-1:50 - M. Teixeira successfully bunts!!!
Lester was poor throughout. I'm used to pitchers playing amazingly well for a few innings before giving up six runs in a row in like the fifth. This is the second game in a row where the pitcher's been meh. But maybe it's Starscream & Fenway lining up well.

Scrubs In-Game Team Name?
Gallardo looked terrible. His first two at bats and he walks them? Hell, Troy Tulowitzki walked 4-4 until where I'm at right now which is a 2-2 count at the end of video three. Anticipation! Will Tulowitzki go 0 for 0 tonight or will something happen? But man, what a horrible game for Gallardo. He was scared of those batters, and yet no home runs all night..

You know we are doomed when our 3-6 looks like this. And when Cliff Lee walks at least 1 person each inning.
Oh well, you're great." "PAPELBON WHAT NOOOOOOOOO!" My team played ****ty defense, but I don't fault them or anyone for the loss. The Wonder Weasels are just that powerful with an excellent pitcher in Oswalt.
I have no idea why they stopped Myers to warm up Paps. I was completely confused at the time, and now I think our team is just trolling us.

Just think, we got out of that game easy. Yeah, Hudson may have given up, what, 4 runs? We'd be down 4-23 if Papelbon was sent in!

Congrats to the Gorons, the Weasels and the Scrubs for locking up Badass League playoff spots. Also, congrats to Bimmy Lee Cobainheim's Bearorists of San Marino for making the playoffsi n the Kickass League.
Sadly, the Las Vegas Gamblers, after goign to game 7 in the LCS last year, will not be heading to the playoffs this year. Better luck next year.
The two remaining teams in each league who have not locked up or been eliminated face off in their respective leagues this week.The Hedgehogs and Demigods control their destiny, as each can go to the playoffs with a win in either of their next two games. The Nemesis and Mannys would need to win this week, win next week, and have their opponent lose Week 16.

NOTES TO SELF -Nick Green is playing this week -Were there any other changes this week?
Not doing write-ups (at least not today), but the Tulsa/Gamblers game looks incredible from what I've seen.

Almost had a goddamn heart attack but f*** yes we won. Really debating about starting Tim Wakefield next week with a top 2 spot almost guaranteed already. Hmm.

Mannys, Nemesis stay alive, need a miracle Both 5th place teams beat the 4th place teams this week to move them one game back with one game left to play.
Unfortunately for those two teams, they will face off against the best team in their respective leagues this week, as the Nemesis face the Weasels and the Mannys face Starscream.
Even should either team pull off the upset, the Nemesis would have to depend on the Scrubs beating the Demigods while the Mannys would need the Gamblers to upset the Hedgehogs' ace and Cy Young frontrunner Tim Lincecum. If that unlikely scenario happens in either case, the two bubble teams would play a one-game "play in" to determine the final playoff spot.
Amusingly, the worst team in the Badass League (the Red Zakus, 5-10) are in a position to end the season with an identical record to a Kickass League playoff team (Hedgehogs would be 6-10 with a loss). Were the Nemesis to take their record to the Kickass League, they would be tied for third place.

Need any roster changes for play-in time by tomorrow at noon, EST, as I will be recording soon so I can do the postseason next week.
Stats will probably be up to date by the time you read this message.
All roster changes for the PLAYOFFS (except for play-in teams) are due by Monday at noon. With a full season worth of statistics, I HEAVILY suggest that you tinker a bit. There are some pretty weird lineup choices, and you now have a much better evaluation of your pitchers.
