This is just to get the ball rolling, we will worry about keepers/draft order/draft time/etc. once all this is figured out, hope to have everyone back and have another competitive season
After my poor showing last year, I need to come back strong this year. I had some problems last year, which is why i wasn't very active. Things have sort of come together now, so I'll be ready to go from 2nd worst to first this year.
Wow. I'm surprised we got a yes from so many people already. That's great!
I wanted to get some clarification on a few things. We decided we're keeping 5, forfeiting the round which they were drafted - except FAs who are Rd 15 - correct? Can they be kept indefinitely at that round value?
I'd also like to propose what I suggested last year, and that is to change the league to H2H. We had too many people bow out last season when it was apparent they were out of the running. At least in a playoff system we hold attention the entire season.

1) Yes it's great to have so many guys back already.
2) That is correct, we will discuss if they can be kept indefinitely but as of now that is probably how the rules are.
3) We can take a poll on Roto vs H2H, I just think Roto has less luck involved and the bet team always wins Roto were in H2H one hot team in September can steal the league.

I definitely agree, but that's the tradeoff between the two formats. But like baseball, not always does the best team win. Sometimes it's about getting hot at the right time, or just getting lucky. I guess I just would choose a format where the most teams have the most to play for. I'd be fine sticking with Roto, but that's just my argument.
As a side note, I like what my potential keepers could look like:
Utley in the 1st Agonz in the 3rd Ellsbury in the 4th Greinke in the 7th JUpton in the 8th Wieters in the 10th Choo in the 15th
I'll shoot them an e-mail in addition to the PMs that I sent, if I don't hear from them by about February we may look into replacements, but I don't mind seasonal guys as long as they are active/competitive during the season.
