Blowout's AL/NL Challenge

[Eckstein197]

Locked up the bye in NL after an insane Sunday comeback

Scoring 67 on Sunday, chitty scored -5 and I won by 5. What a win

[Eckstein197]

Taking a look at the leagues, with 5 weeks to go it’s very funny to compare the 2 leagues

NL has seen a tier divide emerge. Myself, Hollywood and Crossdog have all but locked up the 3 byes. There’s technically a path Crossdog does not get a bye but statistically it’s unlikely

In the AL, Crossdog is in a tier all alone, and then the only separation between 2nd to 6th is 1.5 games. Lot of movement can happen, especially with some
Big matchups looming

In terms of the combo of the leagues, Crossdog is in the lead for 1st as he’s going to lock up byes in both leagues, guaranteeing himself a semifinal appearance in both leagues. As it currently sits, in addition to Crossdog, myself, Hollywood and Lyle both have 2 playoff teams, but by no means are we guaranteed to get both in

If 4 teams can snag 8 of the available 10 playoff spots, including a majority of the Byes, it should make for a very exciting finish and playoff stretch

In terms of regular season best record, Crossdog basically has the AL money locked up, while Hollywood and I are in a battle in the NL. Potentially massive week 21 matchup between Hollywood and I, with only 1 regular season left after we battle

I will get the sheet caught up with trade action so far later tonight

[Hollywood42]

I guess the Duran deal is the only significant cross-league trade today - Chris has Duran in AL and priority to add in NL

If anyone would like to make claims for Mick Abel in the AL, you may do so now

Deadline for both is 8/1, 7:30pm central

[Chris Lyle]

I will be taking Duran in the NL

[Chris Lyle]

As of now he doesn't show in the NL player pool

[Chris Lyle]

Looks like I'm getting hit on the NL side with Suarez also. Uggh.

I will be taking him in the AL

Hollywood i will need some help there since I don't have any adds for the week left. I will drop Tyler Oneill

[Hollywood42]

Everyone recall you do *not* need to burn one of your weekly adds to use your priority claim on a player changing leagues. If you're willing to wait for me, I can get them added for you

Also got a question via PM if you should have to use a weekly add to replace a player you lost from these cross league trades. It seems reasonable to me that this shouldn't count against you, so I can assist with that too

I will be in and out this evening and all day tomorrow, so bear with me on getting caught up with everything if there is more action today

[jstasyk1121]

claims go by waiver order on site correct? I have #1 in both AL and NL so I guess I will wait to see if anyone unowned goes that is worth it to use...

[Hollywood42]

Yes site is up to date, though it will be changing as claims are made

I dropped Wagaman to make room for Castro in NL

[jstasyk1121]

I will claim Kelly and Littell if they go through

and not to be a stickler but if I am not mistaken JP Sears has to go through waivers and cant just be instantly added correct? he wasnt owned but cant be added immediately would be my thoughts

[crossdog]

I dropped a player in AL
