I need to have Aguilar and Rodriguez active on my roster as of 9/13.  They showed up as reserve players on my roster as of 9/14.  Thanks!

Palindromes make a few moves
S Perez KC off IL and remove C Gallagher KC
D Dahl COL off IL and remove J Profar SD
E Pagan SD off IL and remove J Guerra ARI
J James HOU off IL and put G Gallegos StL on the IL
C Smith ARI  off IL and release him to the waiver

Looking at it again, I think our scoring system is OK...

There's not a lot of difference between Mills' game and Keller's.

Clevinger's score is a product of this f'd up season. Take away his CG and shutout points, and it's where it should be...

If these 7 inning DH's are going to become a regular thing (let's hope not!), we'll need to come up with something else...

Looking at it again, I think our scoring system is OK...

Is it possible on CBS (or any fantasy platform) to spread out the complete game and shutout points over the last three innings? So instead of 5 points for a CG and 10 points for a SO, you award those points this way:
 - 2 bonus points for finishing the 7th
 - 3 bonus points for finishing the 8th
 - 5 bonus points for finishing the 9th
 - 5 bonus points for throwing a shutout

Since managers only expect 5-6 innings out of most pitchers and complete games are almost non-existent, it just seems like that would be a more accurate way to score in the current game. Right now, the difference between a 6 inning start and an 8 inning start is 2 points. That seems low, because that's a pretty huge difference in real life.

In general, high scoring starting pitcher categories in fantasy just don't accurately capture how starters are used in 2020 (with quality starts being the one exception).

Innings pitched points could be beefed up and result in the same bump. How much more valuable in today's game is a CG than a five inning win with 8 k's? You decide, but if I was a manager it wouldn't even be close and imo fantasy points could/should reflect that. And k's are nice but bb's are more devastating so the equal distribution of 1/1 on k's and bb's is out of whack as well.

If it stays the same it doesn't really matter to me, I'm just pointing out the inequity of one guy going 7 and another going 9 and getting basically the same points for it. Maybe for the owners next year it is something to look at. Like I said, doesn't matter to me.

El Mago will activate and drop Wade Davis.
Move Kyle Crick to the IL and pick up Nick Wittgein, RP Indians

Old Style activates Hays from IL and calls up Stephenson from minors...and releases Arozarena and Dickerson
