NOTES
While it's nice to see my team on top, it takes a while for these to actually reflect how good the teams are. Just working with small sample sizes, although Hanley has promised 30/30 and he's on pace for it, so be ready.
The matchups weren't all the close this week and most RR reflect the Actual performance. Take The Knebel and Tomahawk had an interesting matchup with one team flopping in pitching and the other in hitting, but both were top 6 teams for the week.
There have been 23 weather-related postponements this year - a new record. This is no doubt impacting outcomes (especially if you were counting on Twins or White Sox Fri-Sun), but Sunday's doldrums pretty much hurt everybody. The nice part is you'll get those back at some point.
It will be interesting to see how speed is valued this year. So far, the league is averaging a little of 0.5 SB per day and about 4 per week. Meanwhile, the league is average 1.1 HR per day and 8 per week. There are only 13 players with more than three SBs and only 10 were drafted (Craig Gentry, Rajai Davis, Tim Anderson were not) and only 8 are ranked in the top 300 overall.
It's always fun to look at the overall leaders since Yahoo customizes it to our settings. I added a column showing when they were selected or kept ("K"). Not a whole lot to take away though since some are primarily based off a few good days (Didi, Baez) while others show some very interesting young guys (Chapman, Albies), but usually there aren't so many Keepers in the top 25 so early. Sounds like you guys knew what you were doing this year.
