well the new fantasy season is upon us and its out with the old in with the new fantasy studs
im a newbie here so let me start by telling you the league i am in has 7 pitchers starting and 10 position players made up from every position with 2 utility spots
the points system is 3 points per inning for pitching with 1 pt for Ks , 10 for wins , 10 for svs , - 5 for losses , -.5 for BB and hits allowed. - 1 for ER , -2 for HRA , - 1 for wild pitches
there are also bonuses for complete games shut outs no hitters and perfect games
the hitters are rewarded for every base, with a bonus of 5 for grandslams , 20 for the cycle and 10 if your player is involved in turning a triple play
there are 13 teams in the league so the waiver wire is very thin
your allowed 23 roster players
im playing with
C jason kendell
1b mark texiera
2b kelly johnson /jose lopez
ss jimmy rollins/cristian guzman
3b troy glaus/jorge cantu
of nick swisher
0f maggz ordonez
of adam dunn
U eric byrnes
U adrian gonzalez
you are allowed to have no more then 9 pitchers and u must start a closer
sp justin verlander
sp cole hamels
sp james shields
sp/rp brett myers* elidgible as a reliever
sp hiroki kuroda
sp jake westbrook
sp a j burnett
sp bronson arroyo
RP manny corpas
a few hard luck losses and a bad start for my pitchers got me low in the standings ..
any thoughts or insight on my squad would be greatly appreciated
i dont want ovbious commentary on my first few weeks, i know how that goes
id like commentary on future projections if possible
thank you in advance
