I know what you are saying and I know what the playoff rules say, but I don't have to agree with the rules. I might be wrong, but if this was a regular season game my record on this would be
5-4-1 and my opponents would be 4-5-1. So why confuse things by letting my opponent win with an asterick! I suppose if the tied category would have been Wins, then I still would have lost! I may reconsider my yahoo Fantasy Baseball for another Fantasy Baseball that has different rules, next year!An error occurred while saving the comment David Hewitt

Just recently, I lost a tie playoff game being a 3rd place regular season finisher facing a 2nd place finisher. I had 5 stand alone category points and a tie in WHIP. My opponent had 4 stand alone category points and a tie in WHIP with me, of course. Now if you break it down in detail my opponent had est. 1.2110000 and I had est. 1.2109000. So in Yahoo rules my opponent wins!???
OK now if I had 5 stand alone category points and my opponent had 4, but we tie in Wins (pitcher cat) then I win!?? What I can't see is what is the difference? I believe I won both examples!!
I strongly believe that this rule needs to be examined and adjusted!!! I do not have faith in Yahoo changing this, however I believe I have a strong argument. Please reply to my email on this. Thank you.

I would be in favor of changing the Wins Category to " Wins and Quality Starts". An example would be a pitcher (SP) has pitched 7 innings, 7 K's, 4 Hits, 0 Walks & 1 Run, let say, with his team leading with a score of 2 to 1. Then the relief pitcher(s) allow 2 runs making a final score 3-2 and the starting pitcher receives no win even thou he had a quality start, the way things are now. Lets receive credit where credit is due for a good starting pitcher. A relief pitcher receiving a Win just because the offense scores runs on both sides to allow the score to be 5-3, reflecting another twist to the 1st example, and the RP may only pitch 1 inning getting the Win instead. Starting Pitchers should get credit for all Quality Starts.

Update. After I tied the higher-seed team in the semi-finals, he went on to win the League Championship. The Consolation Game for 3rd Place, I tied the team who finished 1st Place during the regular season. I won 5 stand-alone categories, my opponent won 3 stand-alone categories, but we tied in ERA and Saves. I held my breath overnight to see how this was going to turn out and to my amazement, I won 3rd Place, 5 to 3. The two category ties must have been thrown out??! Maybe this should be the new playoff rules, if during a playoff game their is a tie, throw the tie category(ies) out and give the win to the most deserving team, not the higher seed!!
