[freamer3]

Bankers special on this holiday Monday. League ID 127273, password baseball. Looking to add like 6 more teams, its head to head, weekly lineups, some different stat categories. Check it out if you have nothing else going on this afternoon.

I'll join but you need to fix some of these categories and roster positions..

2 C 's ? wtf

Im telling you simplicity is key..

[freamer3]

Just over two hours left to get in!

JC thanks for your interest. As for 2 catchers and the categories, they are what they are. I was looking for something different. Get tired of playing in the same cookie cutter leagues. Not like the categories are crazy stuff like sacrifices or grouned into DPs. Hope you will give it a shot.

[J.C.Fighter]

I really do want to give this league a shot..
This is like a warmup draft for my main leagues...

There aren't that many productive C's though..
You gotta take that into account...

Oh and dont think that there are going to be many owners that are just going to draft all SP's with P as the only pitcher position?
Or a team might draft all RP's...
That has happened to me before with P as the only pitching position...

my 2 cents...

On the pitchers-I did consider this, and that's why appearances is a category too. So you will have to draft relievers or punt that and saves. But to meet the weekly innings requirements, you'll have to draft some starters too. There will be different strategies. And as far as catchers go, no there are not 24 great catchers. But I'd say there's barely 5 honestly. Catchers 6-20 are basically all the same. So I think you'll be able to get 2 to play. There's some young guys coming up, and vets like Larue, Estrada, and Lieberthal won't kill you late.

Im still trying to figure out a draft strategy for these kind of settings ...

I can understand TB's for hitters but TB's for pitchers aswell?
I dont know about that one ....
Im still trying to figure out APP's..

1 C position is enough IMO...
I dont think anyone wants to draft guys like Lieberthal and Kendall...

[hoopitup21212]

never heard of such a thing with 2 catchers

[J.C.Fighter]

Im not sure if I want to be in this league now....

Some problems I have with this league

-CI & MI ( The IF position is a combination of those 2 positions. You do know that right?)
-2 C's(1 is suffice)
-Weekly deadline ( I tried it and hated it . Daily is way better)
-TB for Pitchers ( I dont understand why you have this. I rather have CG)
-APP ( Having this doesn't make any sense if you ask me )

Sorry if Im being so demanding ...

If you do not want to play in the league, kindly delete your team. It is currently full of 12 players, so if you are one of them and don't think you will like it no problem. I'd rather have you go ahead and sit out then quit two weeks in. Someone will sign up to get in a full league I'd imagine. If you havn't signed up, afraid you may have missed it. TB for pitchers is something new I'm trying out. Just to see if its usefull. Measure of how hard a pitcher is getting hit. Its a free one year league, just experimenting. I explained pitcher appearances, it's in to make middle relievers useful (something different than holds). I've never heard of someone having a problem with CI and MI before. And I can't believe 2 catchers is causing this much drama. Finally on the deadline, just trying to make it convienant and even for people who don't check the site EVERY day. I believe that you can still make trades, get free agents, etc. every day, just set your lineup once a week for that matchup. That way you have to decide if you want to start that two start mediocre pitcher or a better one start guy. If you can only do any moves on Monday, I will change this.

[J.C.Fighter]

I guess there aren't going to be any changes..

Im out
