I heard somebody, it might've been Valenzuela, on LA radio talking about how to pronounce Urias. The correct pronunciation includes slightly rolling the R, apparently. So phonetically it's a bit like oo-dee-us.

Letter i in Spanish is pronounced like a long e in English. Also he has an accent on the i in his name, so it's pronounced:

oo-REE-us

And yes in Spanish they pronounce their r's with the tongue at the roof of their mouth similarly to how we do with d's. So you pronounce it like you are trying to say r but with the tongue at the roof of your mouth.

Ya that's what im thinking too. Turner's up for the duration

But this is kinda making me nervous. Turner's almost certainly not going to start everyday as long as espinosa's on the roster cuz dusty and he's a mortal lock to be hitting 8th when he does start cuz dusty

ok another rookie question for you boys, I have been cruising trying to make moves and just glancing at my point totals once and awhile, but I don't understand this. How am I not making points on RBI or AVG? Smokin' on that Kemp got 0.5 and has a worse average than me.

Yeah but I am wondering why my daily point total in certain categories seem off? Like points get adjusted daily right?

so assuming the trade i just made for bro and the trade i just made for goldy don't get vetoed, i will have FINALLY pulled off my goal of completing the trout/bro/goldy monopoly and one of my 50 YPLs will field the following offense:

c: realmuto
1b: goldy
2b: profar
3b: donaldson
ss: machado
OF: trout
OF: stanton
OF: bro
util: napoli
util: travis

bench: saunders
DL: martin

+ 5 empty roster spots

amusingly this team is in 8th place and is losing 8-0 currently

They do, but that picture doesnt show the year long stats. For example, you may get 16 RBI in a night, but if you're in 3rd place with 250 RBI, and 2nd place has 275 RBI, you won't gain any points for that category that night.

More interesting, Turner at 2B and Murphy at 1B, so possible he could see some time at 2B and SS if he stays?

Also, Gattis starting at C tonight, game #7.
