PowerRanks: Week 20

Good weeks, but is it too late?

Charisma and deus ex machina turned in the top scores this week, but is it too late for post-season dreams? Perhaps, although one might make it if they win 10-0 and everyone else loses 0-10. Despite the fact that charisma very well may be out of it this year, he put up a strong 8.6 PR this week, the 5th highest week total this season.

For any team, a strong finish may indicate the players they'll want to keep for next season. Keepers may be sent to me at any time and you can trade keepers beginning December 1st. You may trade keepers for other keepers provided that all keepers are submitted to me a week before a trade. You may also trade your keepers for another team's draft pick. I'll get more information about how this might work coming soon, but it is never too early to begin thinking about keepers for next year.

Opening Day

Coming Soon!

In addition to Easter, baseball's Opening Day will be here this Sunday. Although only the Red Sox and Yankees will play, its a sign that winter is ending and baseball is here again.

Be sure to set your lineups and take note of those who have gone down with injuries already. I notice that several of you have already made some pickups to bolster your rosters. As I previously mentioned, you will soon be able to submit trading block proposals to me where I will give you the opportunity to pitch your proposals to everyone at once. In preparation, feel free to email me with the following information:

• Introduction to what you want and what you're willing to give up
• Player(s) name
• Benefits each player will bring a trade partner’s team.
• Any closing remarks

All of these will be optional, so if you just want to send me a list of players, that’s fine too.

I hope to have a great season, see you all on the diamond!
