Not having hair makes getting ready after a shower pretty simple. ;)

We're underway!

Gonna be interesting for me. This is a different team in terms of salary distribution.

Well, we lost internet for 20 hours before I could make any late moves on Saturday. I didn't get back to my team yesterday. So, for the first two series I had no hitter preferences, no pitcher preferences, no team strategy, no lineups set - and a 5-1 start.

Should I just leave everything as is? HAL seems to manage better than I do.

You guys would hate me. 64 yo, plenty of hair, no gray. And I don't dye it.

I like to think I have a full head of grey (maybe white) hair, but every time I'm sitting outside basking in the sun, my wife brings out a ballcap so I won't get sunburn (she says). So, maybe at 78 I'm thinning out a bit - at least my hair is.

Sheesh. Please put in your own ideas! LOL :lol:

At this point, not having hair is a good thing. ;) No worries, no time spent, just have to shave it every couple of days. Easy peasy.

Tough break! Lose my expensive R2 RP for 15 games. 80mil league less bullpen depth to try and cover for him. Not going to be easy.

Sheesh Spider must have the NLD figured out. He's off to a great start after winning 4 of the last 5!

Someone cool that guy off!

Ok, here's a weird way to win a game in the 15th inning

BOTTOM OF INNING 15
0 M.Semien 2-6 Walk b-1 F0
0 1 R.Grossman 2-10 Walk 1-2 b-1 F0
0 12 J.Candelario 1-9 Walk 2-3 1-2 b-1 F0
0 123 J.Outman 2-2 HBP 3-H 2-3 1-2 b-1 F0

This game shot through my pen as Williamson was injured in the 3rd inning!
