nevermind Yahoo made their league message boards shitty now. I cannot post from my phone and am not having much better luck from a PC. I may need to move my league to mlb.com or something.
Since a thread is already made pertaining FB2012 I might as well put this here: I can keep 4 players from my [championship] team last year. C Victor Martinez 1B Albert Pujols 2B Rickie Weeks 3B Alex Rodriguez SS Derek Jeter OF Carlos Beltran OF Mike Bourne OF Angel Pagan BE Aaron Hill BE Dexter Fowler BE Chipper Jones BE JJ Hardy BE Placido Polanco SP Cliff Lee SP Josh Johnson SP Josh Beckett SP Ricky Romero CL Mariano Rivera BE Jaime Garcia BE Ivan Nova BE Joe Saunders Initially I was gonna keep Pujols, C Lee, J Johnson and Vic Martinez. Martinez's Catcher eligibility doubles his value.... obviously he's out. So who do I keep off this team? Right now I'm thinking: Cliff Lee Albert Pujols Josh Johnson Ricky Romero (yup, I think he's a stud) Discuss, and thank you in advance.
I would keep Pujols, Bourn, Lee and Johnson. I have a knack for finding pitchers so I usually like to keep batters. Bourn can help you in steals and runs and maybe average.
Looks like I will keep my keeper league at Yahoo. I may bounce two managers soon if they do not show up. I haven't heard from them since last season and they were the two weakest managers anyway. Their teams would be disbanded. The players would go back into the free agent pool. The replacement managers would get expansion teams. If interested, let me know.
What kind of format is the league (how many keepers per season, roster composition, is it roto or head-to-head, etc)? Is it a pay league or free?
Free (very competitive group that doesn't need a small pool to get excited) Auction draft 5 keepers this offseason with a chance for more after this season Head-to-head
I acquired C Carlos Santana for a sixth round pick. My keepers are now Pujols, C Lee, J Johnson, and Santana.
My keepers for 2012- Eric Hosmer Daniel Hudson Logan Morrison Ben Zobrist Howie Kendrick They only cost $24. That leaves me with $236 to spend on 18 players.
We actually have one spot open. I was going to advertise the league a little here tonight and then at other boards if I had no luck here. It is free to play- we have enough fantasy baseball diehards who do not need to play for money. If you are interested I will PM you some stuff in a few hours.
I'm interested but am very busy with school/work at the moment. PM details and I'll let you know. Thanks.
You would worry me because you are not consistently here. Of course, this message board has nothing to do with a fantasy baseball league. Can I count on you to regularly check your team? For steves850 or anybody else interested here is some information- Two of the 12 managers never answered the bell for this season. I have decided to replace them. There will be an expansion draft this week. head-to-head free 5x5 $260 for 23 players (you will select your first five in the expansion draft and then the remaining 18 with everyone else during the March 25 auction) The following players are available to be drafted in the 2012 Expansion Draft. These players carry their 2011 salaries forward to 2012 and they are subject to the same escalators as players kept by returning managers. For example, Prince Fielder's 2011 salary was $37. If selected in the Expansion Draft his salary will remain $37 for all of 2012. If kept after 2012, his salary will increase to $42 for 2013. $8- Emilio Bonifacio 8- Melky Cabrera 37- Prince Fielder 8- Doug Fister 16- Victor Martinez 2- Carlos Quentin 12- Jered Weaver 15- Rickie Weeks 4- Freddie Freeman 37- Josh Hamilton 30- Tim Lincecum 1- Ervin Santana 46- Troy Tulowitzki 36- Matt Holliday 8- Brandon League 9- Shaun Marcum 27- Jimmy Rollins 13- Joakim Soria 26- Shin-Soo Choo 38- Ryan Howard 10- Mat Latos 27- Dustin Pedroia 44- Alex Rodriguez 8- Paul Goldschmidt 45- Carlos Gonzalez 6- Adam Lind 48- Albert Pujols 1- Alfonso Soriano 8- Lucas Duda 15- Yovani Gallardo 3- Jair Jurrjens 34- Jose Reyes 8- Julio Teheran 8- Dustin Ackley 43- Evan Longoria 8- Justin Masterson 12- Jose Valverde 14- Michael Young 3- Josh Beckett 8- Desmond Jennings 31- Cliff Lee 8- Alexi Ogando 42- Joey Votto 4- Jeremy Hellickson 1- Mitch Moreland 6- Ricky Romero 7- Shane Victorino 5- Neil Walker 3- Michael Bourn 28- Jon Lester 25- Buster Posey 6- Wandy Rodriguez 8- Mark Trumbo 8- Brandon Beachy 1- Derek Holland 23- Josh Johnson 19- Paul Konerko 38- David Wright 15- Matt Cain 8- Alex Gordon 13- Zack Greinke 26- Clayton Kershaw 2- Gaby Sánchez 3- James Shields 5- Drew Storen 10- Drew Stubbs 8- Adam Wainwright 5- C.J. Wilson
Somebody responded to an open invitation elsewhere. I will keep you in mind as a midseason replacement should the need arise or next year in the event we have true expansion.
