Sayre Extends Tout X Lead in Game 4!

vikingposeBret Sayre may be a Dynasty Guru, but he’s shown monthly control in the Tout X game being played at Shandler Park.  In Game 4 Sayre was the first player to win two months of the game, and the only player to top 50 points all four games.

Doug Anderson has shrugged off a disastrous Game 1, and after finishing first in Game 3 finished second this past month, climbing into fourth place overall.

Patrick Mayo and Andrea Lamont have posted consistently solid scores all four games and rank second and third going into the penultimate game.

Sayre spent big on Paul Goldschmidt, who had a .450 OBP but only hit one homer and drove in 12 runs. More productive was Mike Trout, with 12 homers in the four week contest, Carlos Gonzalez and JD Martinez.

Sayre’s strategy each month has been to load up on hitters and pick off cheap pitchers. His ace this month was the $16 Corey Kluber, and he didn’t spend more than 10 for any other pitcher ($10 went for Lance McCullers). Oh, and he bought no relievers.

The formula has worked, and it will be interesting if his Tout Wars X opponents adopt more of his style this month.

Here are the final stats for Bret Sayre’s Game 4 winning team (click images to enlarge):
