That's funny, this week also reminded me of that post! I was gonna post something about it right after this update - thanks for saving me the trouble of tooting my own horn.
And yeah, Gav/Ewan can totally rack up the points in China, but either way, missing out on those guys was definitely a big fear after Ewan came ripping out of the gates. And also either way, I think we can all agree that Grosu was a stupid pick.

Netserk said:Regarding your team, skidmark, it will be interesting to see if the two of your rare picks (Nibali and Grosu, price 1380) will be able to beat two of your popular omissions (Gav and Ewan, price 1385 [your team has 32 points to spare, so it is a possible substitution]).
I don't really know how much to expect from Grosu, but it is obvious that much depends on Nibali for your combo to outscore the popular alternative. The rarity of your picks and the popularity of the omissions will make that matchup likely to be deciding for your team's upper ceiling. Best of luck to you, such a shame that the competition in the Giro is so fierce
Nibali: 1217 -> 1822
Grosu: 163 -> 158
Gaviria: 833 -> 1068
Ewan: 552 -> 717
skidmark's combo: 1380 -> 1980
Popular combo: 1385 -> 1785
I was very skeptical if the rare combo would outscore the popular one, but well done.
