Yahoo.com PatsFans Fantasy Baseball League

[mtbykr]

Fantasy football is like checkers compared to chess and the losers who play it should get out of their parents cellars, get a friggin life and get their own board.

Tell us how you really feel Ohh and it's fantasy baseball not football!

 

[mtbykr]

Most certainly.

I forgot about the draft last year and finished in 2nd place. (Got Brandon Webb in the process, too)

I am new to fantasy, but everyone seem to agree that these were good settings

just my $.02

 

[pats1]

I've applied all of those settings. The league is now head-to-head style.

If there are any objections, please let me know.

Does anyone want the draft time changed?

 

[pats1]

By the way, the league is now full at 12 teams.

If anyone else wants to play, say so, and I might change the team limit.

 

[mtbykr]

I would prefer the draft be during business hours on a weekday......easier for me to be in the office.....but that's just me!

Welcome to the darkside. :rocker:

 

[pats1]

I've increased the team limit to 20 (max allowed by Yahoo). I doubt we'll get that many, but it will allow some more people to join.

20 teams!!! lol- Do you know what it is going to take to manage a league that big??

You may be better off breaking it into two separate 10 team leagues, and then have the the top five teams from each league combine to compete against each other next season/mid season.

Just an idea.

You guys should read the Real Value articles on my site. They may give some interesting Pre-draft tid-bits. It's all free. We had a statistician break down the true Player values and rankings (if you buy into his philosophy).

There is the "Main Article" (which explains the system)-

And then there are Positional breakdowns:

C, 1B, 2B, SS, 3B, OF

i dont really like total bases allowed
that combined with k/9 makes closers maybe even more valuable than good starters

strikeout to walk ratio is prob a better indicator of quality of pitcher

Good thinking. I'll change it back. Should have thought of that.

im kinda a fantasy freak
more football def
i know its a sickness, but its fun as all hell

 

[pats1]

Don't forget the draft is tonight at 8:45.

 

[Tunescribe]

No. I don't think moderators should be starting baseball and fantasy threads in the football forum when the next minute they're moving NFL draft threads to somewhere else. What kind of priorities are those?

Agreed. Those to whom baseball is a priority will be reading the baseball forum, where this thread belongs.

 

[chunkypony]

damn, the league's all full.
