The problem is actually wanting to draft him again if he's screwed your team over for 3/4 of this season. But I agree he will most likely have pretty good value next year especially in live drafts that show last year's numbers.

I was up by .012 points in average going into tonight's game with a 7-5 lead. An 0-5 from Mauer and 1-4 from MCab later and I'm playing for 3rd place. I lost the regular season series' 12-11 which is the Yahoo tiebreaker.

[benb18a]

I'm in a similar boat but own the tiebreaker. My opponent got a SECOND win from both Lohse and Weaver today to pull ahead in Ws by one, to put us at a 5-5 tie. Beating this chum 15-5 for the regular season series so it looks like I will make it to the finals after all. To face a team that is four games below .500

Is there a way to cancel a pending WW claim in Yahoo! leagues? I picked up Aoki but realized I would be better off with Neil Walker since I will have a hole at 2B on Thursday. Doesn't go through until Tuesday, but I don't see any way to cancel the transaction which shouldn't occur for another 24 hours?

on your main team page there is a link that allows you to edit your waiver priority. From tehre you should be able to cancel any waiver claims you don't want.

I'm in the finals! yay! The #1 and #2 seeds made it to the end as it should be.

I've got Pettitte, Estrada and Sale tonight. He's got Holland and Verlander. He's got no closers and I have four, so once I have a saves lead it's time to stream pitching. I think it'll come down to who's hitters stay hot. Mauer, Pujols, Cano, ARam, Longoria need to continue to carry my offense.
