I finished first in the regular season in my 12 team H2H league, so I got the bye the first week. I then tied 5-5 the second week. Now I have been bumped down to the 3rd place game. I checked H2H against this guy during the season, and I lost 5-4 and won 6-4, totally 10-9. Why am I not in the finals? Anybody know?
thanks,
Dave

ERA is the tiebreaker.

I actually won BOTH of my semifinals after tie-ing 5-5 because I won ERA!

Yeah it's kind of an odd way to do it. I think they chose ERA because it is the stat that is the least likely to be tied.

Another Yahoo Question

Our league has a 4 pickups per week limit. Does this mean we only get 4 for the entire 2-week finals, or will it be 4 this week and 4 next week. Thanks.

My head to head league playoffs were for week 22/23/24 instead of 23/24/25, and our finals were only one week this year. FYI

For those interested, here is the reply I got from Yahoo help:

If you are involved in the two-week championship series in a
Head-to-Head league, please consider the following:

There are no changes to your weekly transaction limit during the
two-week final. So, if your league features a 3 transaction limit
managers will only be able to make 3 players adds during championship
week.

I think they must mean:

"...will only be able to make 3 players adds during championship series."
