Beaver Roto League Wiki

I'm trying out this new Wiki service called WetPaint. If you're interested, check out the Beaver Roto League Wiki:

I thought it would be a good place to collaborate on league rules and give a place for each team to have their team pages.

The fate of 756

756 is to be branded with an asterisk and then sent to the hall of fame...

Finals Round 1, Jim is down big

Jim is losing to Kelley by about the same amount that Kelley came back from last week. So we know it's possible, but can Jim do it?



Jim needs a 9.5 - 2.5 win to take the championship. Kelley just needs to hang on to take his first title since 1999.

Since I didn't get a chance last week, here's the latest playoff bracket:

Tuesday, September 18, 2007

Finals are set

Jim powered his way to another finals appearance and Kelley had a huge comeback to make his first finals ever.


Kelley 10 - Dan 2

The final results for this week were very close, but all of the chips fell right for Kelley and he pulled out the huge win against Dan. Dan's pitching let him down as he could only muster 27 IP. Lots of runs though.


Jim 7.5 - Matt 4.5

Total hitting domination from Jim dispelled any hopes of a comeback from Matt. Jim is looking very strong this post-season.

Pretty obvious which option I voted for :)

Round 3 (semis), Week 1

Dan 9.5 - Kelley 2.5

Wow. Amazing week by Dan. He is poised to pull off his second major upset of the playoffs and be the lowest seeded team to make the finals (Jason was the #5 seed last season when he won).

Kelley must feel like he can't buy a break. He hits 15 HRs and Dan hits 17. He gets 4 SBs and Dan gets 6. And after his SPs just got like 8 wins in one week, they come up with only one win. It will be tough for Kelley to come back from this one down 9.5 - 2.5, but its possible.



Jim 8 - Matt 4

Jim quietly is rolling through the playoffs. Not a commanding lead in week one, but there's definitely some breathing room. He is looking to make his second Finals appearance in three years.

FKAky advance

I haven't been good at blogging this past week but all is well with Team FKAky. After a scare in the first week, Team FKAky dominated the Box Chowers 11 to 1 in week 2 to advance to the semifinals of the Beaver Roto League Playoffs.

It looks like we will be playing the 7th seed Pickle Weasels this week as they upsetted the defending champions.

Playoffs Round 2, Week 2

Two upsets in round to and one near miss make things interesting down the stretch.

Much like last year, the #5 team moved on. Unlike last year, the #1 team is still intact to face the #5 team.

Jim beat Calvin to squeak into the second round. Even though they tied after two week, both winning one game 7-5, Jim moved on due to having the higher seed.

Dan blew out to a huge week one lead and head the lead in week two for a comfortable win. So the big upset this year is the #2 losing to the #7 team (me losing to Dan).

Kelley beat Brian fairly comfortably and will have to face the upset minded Pickle Weasels.


Round 3 should be interesting. Will Matt make it into the money after publicly declaring his season over in week 6? Will Kelley finally make it into the money after coming so close last season? Can Jim get into his second finals in 3 years? Or can Dan become the lowest seed ever to make it into the finals?
