If I'm not mistaken, Easter Sunday also. I think another day would be better since I'm sure lots of us will have family shit to tend to.

I'm too lazy to make a sig.

Jimbo's right .. it is Easter Sunday

[Tom from New Orleans] MY BAD[/Tom from New Orleans]

I've shut down this league and will start another one once Yahoo opens other weekend times for live drafts.

I prefer to hold drafts right at the season's start. Would anyone have a problem with Sat. March 30th?

Actually, I won't shut down the league. You can join the league if you're interested, and I'll just change the time later on.

I'm also open to suggestions regarding league settings.

IAmMighty: the draft says March 31st because that was when it was originally scheduled for. I plan on changing the time once Yahoo opens up the April draft times.

I should really stop drinking early.

Didn't see when Easter was. Set a date, if available, I'll be there. If not, I'll set the rankings and hope for the best.

You may notice from the 1st post in the thread that the date and time of the draft has OFFICIALLY been changed to SAT. MAR. 30TH 3:40PM EST.

I hope this time is satisfactory with those already signed up, and that it will encourage more people to JOIN NOW.

Just giving you the heads up roid rage...but they have a fresh new set of times and dates to organize a live draft. So, in case you wanna have the draft earlier in the month, you can now. Im already in a few leagues, including my own, so i cant join yours, but im just letting you know that more dates and times are available.

Cluster F: Thanks for the heads up. I chose to hold the draft near opening day so that we have a better idea of who's made each team's roster. I don't enter leagues that draft earlier because there are too many potential cut victims still around on minor-league invites.

A case in point is Matt Williams. If we had held our draft already and Williams was picked, then that team would've wasted that pick and be at a disadvantage before the season even starts.

I do appreciate the heads up, though. Thanks.

Well, despite the fact that the Rutabega Longballers have insured us that they are going to finish first, we're going to go ahead and play the season out anyway. All we need are 8 MORE TEAMS to fill the 20 team HEAD-TO-HEAD league!

Remember, we will have a LIVE DRAFT - SATURDAY MARCH 30TH 3:40PM EST. You've got an entire month to prepare for the draft and rank your players.

If you're interested, go back to the first message in the thread for detailed info.

Come join the fun!

20 Teams? Sounds like overkill to me my friend...you will only see a watered down shitty team come from that.

Have a Question? Or Just wondering why I'm so angry?

Thank you for the suggestion, Austin, but Bloody Anus is right. I'm shooting for realism with the league settings. The rosters are set up like real baseball: 11 pitchers (most teams carry 11 these days), 9 starting hitters (OK, there's a DH, so it's only like the AL), and a 5-man starting rotation.

Innings pitched and games started were selected as scoring categories to reward teams for pitchers who actually pitch. If a pitcher is injured, there are now 5 DL spots, so he can be replaced by another picther off the free agent or waiver lists. This way, an actively-managed team is rewarded for keeping a roster full of active pitchers with a high innings and games started count.

With that in mind, I've made a few changes to the league settings:


  • I changed the last two pitcher spots to RP instead of P, to more closely represent a true major league roster.

  • I've added an 8th scoring category for hitters, At Bats, to reward hitters who actually play.

  • I've added an 8th scoring category for pitchers Pitching Appearances to reward a team for having active starting AND relief pitchers.

  • I've added a 5th DL spot (5 is the maximum allowed by Yahoo).


20 teams means you have to know more about baseball than just each team's stars. If we don't get to 20 we can always adjust downward, but I would prefer to fill the league if possible. The only caveat is that we must have an even number of teams before we can draft.

If anyone has comments about these changes, feel free to post them here.

There are now only
5 spots left! JOIN NOW!!
