Week Eight Recap (7-1): It's time to start working on that evil laugh of yours, the one where you laugh evilly as you stand over your broken and helpless as a newborn kitten opponent, AFTER YOU'VE THROWN THE SWITCH.. THE LAUGH AND THE SPEECH AFTER you destroy the world.. oh, ahem, King Felix and the Legion of doom strike again.

ATLANTIC CITY SHARKS  500
TEAM WHODATS                 406

Lineup Moves: Missed out on the Carlos Correa pickup.  Was at work when the Astros promoted him.  Lineup was weak link again at 166.  Off day starter waiver wire pickup posted mediocre +5.  Made major moves (Dropped Castro, Fowler, Boegarts, Davis) to lineup late in the week that didn't payoff in this matchup, but should pay off as early as next week.

Lineup now looks like this.

C Buster Posey
1B Kendrys Morales
2B Robbie Cano
3B Kyle Seager
SS Ben Zobrist
SS/2B Brandon Crawford
1B/3B Ryan Howard
OF Josh Reddick
OF Starling Marte
OF Mookie Betts
OF Josh Harrison
OF Yasmany Tomas
DH Evan Gattis

Pitching Moves:  Felix threw another shutout and the staff overall posted an unbelievable 334 points, going 10-3 with 14 saves.

Conclusions:  Although the waiver wire pick ups have tended be a little dramatic on a day to day basis, the end results have been typically been right around the 250 point watermark with the potential for 300+.

The lineup continues to be frustrating, but with Anthony Rendon coming off the DL soon and Brandon Crawford hitting homeruns, there's still hope that I can salvage a disastrous draft.
