As the season winds to the end (or reaches its apex for all of you Presidential Tour of Turkey fans), TH WHISTLER has a commanding over-500 point lead. With only some 20-odd scoring opportunities left, second-place Mjkittens will need some Italian help by way of Viviani and Pozzovivo and look for some top 5 placings from Rudy Barbier and Timothy Dupont. Both Caleb Ewan and Jasper Stuyven are washes, as they are on both TH's and Mj's teams. TH's team of Dan Martin, Bouhanni, and Matthews looks like it may be tough to reel in. Mjkittens might need to be concerned with preserving the second podium position, though, as Camsco's team has Kwiatkowski, Gilbert, Nibali, and Albasini, who is mopping up points in the late season Italian races like some kind of 2016 Colbrelli-Ulissi chimera.
In fourth place, Men Opening Umbrellas Ahead may still have a chance for a podium-placing, with Landa, Kittel, and a resurgent Visconti capable of providing some late-season points. CelticPride, currently in fifth, may have an even better shot with Nibali, Gilbert, Teuns, Henao the elder, Benoot, Bernal, and Formolo. Unfortunately for my team, the riders and DS have been diagnosed with toxoplasmosis, which may explain how I somehow ended up with Roy Jans on both my draft team and regular team.
