I freaking end up putting up 334 points with a guy getting zero in my lineup. So frustrating , is it just part of the game or like wtf how do u know if some guys are sitting last minute ?
Yes it's part of it and there's no definitive way to tell if a guy is getting late scratched. You can hedge by playing the late games. Check twitter feeds of team reporters if you're not sure about a players status.
Also, if you're looking for a cheap forward, try beljinco. pretty much lock for 15-20 fpts and he's always 3k.
