OT: Any interest on a 2nd MTT Baseball Fantasy league
 
Who would be interested? It could be $50,$100 or $200

Re: OT: Any interest on a 2nd MTT Baseball Fantasy league
 
I might be interested if the league was a) a bit smaller, and b) didn't require you to draft 34 catchers.

Re: OT: Any interest on a 2nd MTT Baseball Fantasy league
 
How small? I like a smaller league too.

I'd consider it.

the bigger the better

and yeah, I'm in

Re: OT: Any interest on a 2nd MTT Baseball Fantasy league
 
it should be big but in the right spots.
Best league is 1-C 2-1B 1-2B 1-SS 2-3B 1-MI 5-OF 1-Util 3-SP 2-RP 3-P 3 Spots for the bench

This is perfect for a 10 team league, use 5x5 scoring except change avg to either OBP or OPS. Adjust the number of positions based on number of people

Re: OT: Any interest on a 2nd MTT Baseball Fantasy league
 
I am DEFINITELY in. I would be up for any amt up to 1k.

Lets run it on ESPN though, their fantasy site is much better than Yahoo.

I also would prefer more players per team rather than less.

conditionally in based on format and amt

I don't understand this. Some positions you just randomly need double and some you don't. What's the logic out of curiousity?

mastr 03-29-2007 11:20 PM

Re: OT: Any interest on a 2nd MTT Baseball Fantasy league
 
has to do with the depth of the position. You want to go deep in positions so you get the fun and talent of finding sleepers but not so deep that everyone is equally [censored]

Re: OT: Any interest on a 2nd MTT Baseball Fantasy league
 
If we get the league off the ground can we draft at 8:30pm on saturday?

sirio11 03-30-2007 02:02 AM

Re: OT: Any interest on a 2nd MTT Baseball Fantasy league
 
14 hitters v 8 pitchers? I would rather that we have a few more arms on the roster (maybe 3 more that can be SP or RP?).

I woudl also like 4 or 5 more bench players. The nice thing about a bigger bench is if you do not care you can just autodraft the last couple rounds but if you have to have Melky Cabrera on your team because you think that he will break out you can stick around and get him.

I am in regardless.

mastr 03-30-2007 08:47 AM

Re: OT: Any interest on a 2nd MTT Baseball Fantasy league
 
you can't have more pitchers, the pool just isn't deep enough.. 3 bench is a decent bench but i always like more.. i'm still deciding if i want to pony up the $$$ for this

I personally find it to be not as much fun when everyone has a team of allstars but there is no reason for me to debate this with you if you are not even going to play in the league.

Lets agree to disagree and hear the oppinions of those who actually plan on playing in the league.

Out obv with draft during the UCLA/Florida game. WTF? [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] No worries though, I really don't need to be in another league.

Settings are not final, and we can still change them if we want to.
Is $250 too much? Since only 10 people (at most) in the league I taught it was a good amount, but let me know if you want less.

About the draft time, I think there is some time still left in ESPN (like at 11:45PM), I used 8:45PM because that was the only proposal we have up to that point.

I like a bigger bench too by the way.

uclabruinz 03-30-2007 10:37 AM

Re: OT: Any interest on a 2nd MTT Baseball Fantasy league
 
Don't consider changing the time for me, I'll be too busy celebrating the Bruin victory to draft at any time Saturday night. I really don't need another league anyway, and would feel bad taking your money again David.

Cornell Fiji 03-30-2007 10:58 AM

Re: OT: Any interest on a 2nd MTT Baseball Fantasy league
 
I would prefer that we keep both the draft time and buy in as is. I can't start the draft any earlier; I could go later but I would like to be able to go out after the draft and 11:45 pretty much kills that idea.

Then again I am not a big NCAA guy so I am perfectly content just half watching the game in my room as I draft.

How many confirmed people do we have so far sirio?

Hi guys,

I would be willing to do this, up to 500 bucks if someone with a low post count is welcomed. I would prefer roto 5x5 with standard positions, one or two utilities, and about 6 pitching slots. I would also highly, highly prefer yahoo. Let me know details reached upon, and pm me if you need one more.

Cheers,
FS

I'd be in for $50.

sirio11 03-30-2007 06:02 PM

Re: OT: Any interest on a 2nd MTT Baseball Fantasy league
 
Based on some opinions:

Changed Bench from 3 to 5
Changed RP from 2 to 3

Any more opinions?

Do you guys like the 2-1B? The OBP instead of AVG?

Not to be a dick... but I don't think that I would be interested in doing it for $50.

If there was groundswell support for the league to only be $50 then feel free to ship my cash back and kick me from the league and run it for $50. I would have literally zero problem if you wanted to do this as I already am in a couple leagues.

Changes look good to me.

Since we have a 1B/3B slot I don't think that we also need to have 2 1Bs, that is a little bit of overkill.

I am fine with Avg or OBP.

Also... feel free to post some pics and bump the OOT thread already linked in this thread to help generate interest. I don't post in BBV but maybe one of the regulars wants to xpost this in their forum too. It will hard to find people to join immediately before the draft so sirio needs to fill this league tonight or it is probably going to struggle getting off the ground.

You may try to find a partner to put up the $250, each team is allowed 2 owners.

Come on guys, still some spots open, you may pay only $150 if you want (but you'll play for $1500 total prize only) while the remainder of us who paid $250 will play for a little more.
