[sinewave]

i'm game for one more. auto draft would be better but i could swing either.

[Byrd Man]

I'd go for it. Not sure on the draft, the fantasy football draft wore me out. :csad:

[Badger]

More than likely will be auto, live baseball drafts can be epic in length. Just want to get a feel.

[KALEL114]

Count me in!

[Fran]

Spidey-Bat was doing one, not sure if it's open anymore.

[Matt]

I'll pass. Any fantasy sport outside of football involves too much work.

[fu manchu]

I would join your league, either Live or Auto. I prefer Live.

[Badger]

Spidey-Bat was doing one, not sure if it's open anymore.

Well if Spidey-Bat wants to commish, I have no problem with that.

[Alex The Great]

i'd be in. but i'm in 2 many :csad:

the limits 3 correct?

[Badger]

What makes you think I want a quitter in this league anyway.

And, yes 3 is the limit.

[Alex The Great]

k.

and i was TRYING TO DELETE THE LWAGUE! YAHOO NEWBIE :csad:

[Badger]

I'm kidding if you want in, you are welcome to do so. Delete on of your other teams, I know you know how to do that. :)

[Alex The Great]

the draft already happened in all three

[Fran]

Hahaha. Lwague

[Spidey-Bat]

Well if Spidey-Bat wants to commish, I have no problem with that.

Isn't the limit on Yahoo 4? If it is, I can do it. If not, I'm already in 3 leagues.

[Dark Donnie]

Im in

[danielisthor]

I'm in. I prefer live drafts

[Showtime]

This is seperate from Spidey's League right?

[Dark Donnie]

This is seperate from Spidey's League right?

yeah

[E. Nygma]

I'd be interested, even though i'm in Spidey's also.

[Badger]

Well Spidey if you have one already, I'll take this one.

I'll post details in a bit.

[Badger]

Another question:

Head-to-Head

or

Roto

?????

[Badger]

Also, I will probably go with a live draft. If you can't make it or don't won't to, just set your draft order. I will also, take suggestions for draft dates.

[Excel]

Id def play though I am not as good as I used to be; I aint won anything since 2004

[Badger]

No worries.

I'm going to wait on starting the league, I want to make sure I get a good feel for what everybody likes.

[Fran]

I'm more for a Live Draft.

[Dark Donnie]

Live Draft for me

[Badger]

Roto or Head-to-Head??

:cmad:

[Dark Donnie]

H2h

[fu manchu]

Roto or Head-to-Head??

:cmad:


Head-to-Head

[sinewave]

i'm open for whatever.

[Darren Daring]

Fantasy Baseball you say? Why, I know of a great league, for the interested. an invitation is only a pm away!

[ComicChick]

i've never done a fantasy sport, i wanna maybe give it a shot

[Badger]

Nope, everybody is welcome.

I'll create and post the league info tomorrow.

Let me know if the Draft date/time doesn't work. I will do my best to make everyone happy, though obviously it won't be perfect for everyone.

[Badger]

[Byrd Man]

The Bad News Byrds are ready to go :up:

[Excel]

so whose who?

I am the blasknasty mofos

[NewYorkSpider]

I'll think about this Badger. I have more fantasy teams on mlb.com and it gets to be pain doing them all.

[Spidey-Bat]

I registered. Already have 4 on Yahoo, no more for me this year.

[Darren Daring]

You join mine, I'll join yours. :cmad:

okay:)

[KALEL114]

All signed up! Gotham Knights.

[Badger]

One spot left!!!

If I get interest from another two after it fills, I'll increase it to 14 (no bigger). Need at least two though, no byes for this league.

[The Dude]

I'm in. Brew City Suds

[Badger]

Awesome. :up:

That's 12.

I'll open the league for two more. Must be two though, so if we are at 13 when draft rolls around I will cut the 13th.

[Darren Daring]

Yeha, about those settings could, you like, uh, change them, completely?

Ditch the grand slams, no hitters, triples, errors, and maybe the Home runs given up.

[Badger]

I'll get rid of grand slams, no hitters, and triples. The other two stay.

[Showtime]

I want to be in this league, but I am already in Spidey Bats and don't have the brain capacity for both.

[Badger]

Come on Show, do it!!!


DO IT!!!

[Badger]

Who is this Michael Jack Schmidt?

[E. Nygma]

Who is this Michael Jack Schmidt?

The greatest 3B to ever play the game

But no that would be me :woot:

COME ON PEOPLE!!! :cmad:

DON'T MAKE ME CUT Michael Jack Schmidt! :(

[Badger]

And, now the league is full.

Welcome Fran. :up:

[Fran]

:yay:

[Badger]

Just a friendly reminder that the draft is March 20th, just under two weeks away.

[Badger]

Just a reminder, the draft is this Thursday at 8:30pm.

I may or may not make it, I've had a work obligation come up.

However, I will not move the draft.

[Badger]

Tomorrow 8:30pm for the draft.

I, more than likely, will not make it.

[Darren Daring]

Is there supposed to be one CF and two generic OF? wha?

also, PLease hurry up and remove strikeouts form the hitter category. Not only does it uneven out the scoring system, it's gaytarded.

[The Dude]

The draft is starting now. So get there.

[Spidey-Bat]

I'm so glad I had time to set up my pre-draft rankings. My team is pretty good, just need to move some pieces.

[Spidey-Bat]

Is there supposed to be one CF and two generic OF? wha?

also, PLease hurry up and remove strikeouts form the hitter category. Not only does it uneven out the scoring system, it's gaytarded.

Also get rid of errors and add OBP. Strikeouts for hitters is unfair and errors is stupid and a horrible measure of defense.

And for pitchers, drop HR and BB and add Earned Runs. I also like K/9. I think QS could be dropped, too.

[Dark Donnie]

I have literally no starting pitching, and anal fissures is my starting 2b :(

[Badger]

You're gay, but I mean that in the best way possible. And, since you're sooo gay, I'll do it. :heart:

I don't have OBP, it's OBS (On-base plus Slugging).

I have ERA, so Earned Runs would be redundant IMO. Also, no K/9.

You get one, besides strikeouts (since I will remove it per Darren's request), so choose wisely.


Also, no more ****ing requests. :cmad:

Love,

Badger

[Spidey-Bat]

I don't have OBP, it's OBS (On-base plus Slugging).
OPS. I like OBP more because it's less damning on guys with little power like Jose Reyes and Rafael Furcal.

I have ERA, so Earned Runs would be redundant IMO. Also, no K/9.
Then just add K/9 since it adds value to pitchers who strikeout a lot of guys and adds value to closers who strike guys out (and I have Hoffman and Borowski who dont strike many out).

You get one, besides strikeouts (since I will remove it per Darren's request), so choose wisely.
BB and HR allowed. You have too many categories that hurt pitchers.

[Badger]

You get one, so which is it BB or HR?

[Jerry!]

Badge is laying down the law.

[Spidey-Bat]

You get one, so which is it BB or HR?

HR allowed even though both are absolutely retarded to have in a league.

[Badger]

HR allowed even though both are absolutely retarded to have in a league.

Why do you ***** so much? :whatever:

I still love you...


sorta...


ok, not really.

:heart:

[Spidey-Bat]

What was the rationale for having BB and HR allowed for pitchers and K and E for hitters?

[Badger]

Do make sure you had something to ***** about.

[Spidey-Bat]

Do make sure you had something to ***** about.

If it was done for that reason maybe I should leave.

[FaT_tONle]

**** these damn Tokyo games... didn't even realize the season started I had Dice-K benched... not that he did anything for me anyway.... damn my team sucks ass.

[Badger]

If it was done for that reason maybe I should leave.

If you have no sense of humor and can't take a joke, maybe you should.

Lighten up.

:huh:

[Badger]

**** these damn Tokyo games... didn't even realize the season started I had Dice-K benched... not that he did anything for me anyway.... damn my team sucks ass.

I didn't think they'd count one series between two teams as week either.

Not that I have any Red Sox or A's, but it's still stupid.

[Darren Daring]

Badger jsut bombed hard, didnt' he.

[Badger]

Jeff Clement, Darren, Jeff Clement. :o

I do get the globalization... but Baseball will never be on the NBA level... obviously this sport will never gain a footing in Europe and Russia... Central Asia/South Africa and Austrailia already have their version of baseball with cricket... I mean the far East and Central America are the only other markets for this. Hell Canada isn't even big on baseball... its a lost cause... but if anything they should at least be playing these games in China since getting the sport out there is the next big step... then again the government there is wacked so who the hell knows if even that would work.

[Darren Daring]

Jeff Clement, Darren, Jeff Clement. :o

You're clearly not familiar with my ultra cool slang. By Bomb, I meant explode with goodness:up:

[Darren Daring]

Also, teh atlanta/washington game counts.

[Badger]

You're clearly not familiar with my ultra cool slang. By Bomb, I meant explode with goodness:up:

I am not familiar, so :up:.

Also, I accepted your trade offer in the other league. :yay:

[Badger]

Looking for a starting catcher. If anyone has one they'd like to give up or has a need I could help fill, send me a trade.

[fu manchu]

yay! i clinched a playoff spot. :up:

[Badger]

Awesome, I have and will continue to clinch nothing. :(
