Monday, October 05, 2009For All the MarblesPosted by Mike Silver at 12:33amMaybe it's fate, maybe it's just an accident, but, in case you're living under a rock, you should know that the Minnesota Twins and the Detroit Tigers are playing on Tuesday for the AL Central Title and ... your fantasy title? Yes, it's true - at least for ESPN.com fantasy players: the final game of the season will count for fantasy points, giving you the opportunity to capture that single or half-point to snatch your fantasy title from the jaws of defeat, or tie. The probables for the game are Detroit's Rick Porcello and Minnesota's Scott Baker. If you're in a deep league, they're probably already gone. But, should that not be the case, pick them up immediately at the expense of your non-keepers, as they won't be kept for next season anyway. Think about it: if you're down in ERA or WHIP, you can make the decision on game day whether you want to play them. Should you be up in the standings by merely a strikeout or two, don't let your adversary get that single point to drop you in the standings. Do the same with any other position players out on the wire, as long as it doesn't affect your keepers. After all, it's happening in more leagues than you think. Two of my leagues have ties at first after 162 games. Though, sadly, I'm not leading in either one. Hurry, there's no time to waste. Why are you still reading this article?
