We've had a last minute departure in our league and therefore need one more opening. We're having a keeper draft tonight at 7 est and the regular draft on Sunday 3/13 at 6 est.
We're dumping all players on the departing teams into a pool and have incoming teams draft their keepers (4) from that pool.
Here's how our league works. Roto league. Stats: OPS, HR, R, RBI, SB, W, K, ERA, WHIP, S
Players are assigned contracts based on where they are drafting. Players drafted in rounds 1-2 have 2 year contracts meaning they can be kept one additional season. Players taken in rounds 3-10 have 3 year contracts meaning they can be kept 2 additional seasons. Players taken in rounds 11-25 have four year contracts meaning they can be kept three additional seasons.
Here's what makes our league especially strategic and interesting. Players remain in their original draft position for as long as they are kept. For example, Mark Prior was drafted 3 years ago in round 20. Thus, the team that drafted Prior has been able to select him in round 20 for a total of 4 seasons. Once a player is not kept or once his contract runs out, he becomes an automatic free agent.
We are a very competitive yahoo-based league. Our annual draft occurs in a live online chatroom. Returning teams are highly committed. We hope for managers of a similar nature. If you are interested or would like to hear more about our league, please e-mail me at
