Rocky said he “ain’t never heard no bell.” Lenny Kravitz echoed Yogi Berra when he said, “It ain’t over ’til it’s over,” and everyone’s favorite from “Dumb & Dumber,” Lloyd said, “So you’re saying there’s a chance.”

This is it. We are at the final week of the MLB season, and fantasy baseball championships can be won or lost here.

Most people will tell you it is impossible to make up ground in the ratio categories. They say you need to log significant innings to move the needle, but if you’re close in ERA, WHIP or even batting average, you have to look at this last-ditch effort properly.

These categories are still about hits and runs. If your players hit the ball and get on base, your batting average will increase. Forget about what happens after they get on base. Your focus is that initial work inside the batter’s box. Young hopefuls like Seattle’s Kyle Lewis are eager to prove themselves with these late-season opportunities, and you should take advantage.

For the pitching ratios, it is simply a matter of logging as many innings as you can without giving up any hits or runs. Easy, right? It is if you focus on the dominant middle relievers sitting out on your waiver wire.

Forget about wins, and don’t worry about strikeouts, those will come. This is about not giving up hits or runs. Unheralded names like Freddy Peralta, Oliver Drake and Tim Hill are all logging about three or four innings per week without giving up runs and posting close to two strikeouts per inning. And since we’re at the tail end of the season with, technically, no tomorrow, you can cut bait with the likes of Domingo German and Chris Paddack to open the roster space.

With regard to your counting stats, focus on players who have something to play for at the end of the season. The Indians and Rays are in a fierce battle for an AL wild-card spot, and names like Joey Wendle, Ji-Man Choi and Jordan Luplow are probably littering your waiver wire.

In the NL, you have even more options, as there are still six teams vying for the two spots. Players like Adam Haseley, Yan Gomes and Trent Grisham are just waiting for a chance to lead your fantasy team to the promised land.

It doesn’t matter if your league is 10, 12 or even 15 teams. With this being the final week of the season, your league is now down to just three or four teams vying to the title while the rest of the league checks out. You need to do whatever you can to make up some ground. Overcoming long-shot odds is what makes for a great championship story, starring you.
