Wins is the first tie-breaker.

OBP is a virtual tie. Wins and Ks are still too close to call.

Chicago road to victory: pull out OBP which is a virtual tie right now. Then somehow manage to take the wins category. That makes it 6-6 and gives him the championship via tie-breaker.

Been a remarkable year for Chicago and Pittsburgh, plus other teams.

I made big stridss with my team, dead last to 5th or 6th. Congrats to all on a great season. Good luck in the upcoming free agent auction and draft in January.

Chicago needs to...
1). figure out how i pissed-off the fantasy baseball gods
2). hope for a ryder cup-like, miracle come-back.

sd, you've done well this year young skywalker. but you must continue to study and master the art of fantasy in order to beat darth milwaukee next season.
good luck,

it boggles my mind that after all these years of building up our teams for this moment, it all may come down to a single at bat. whether or not someone draws an intentional walk may be the deciding OBP factor that pushes one of us over the edge. it really is that close.

and i never thought id catch you this year.

if i had just held onto jeter instead of flipping him for the tulowitzki 'upgrade', id already have this thing clinched!
