Fantasy Baseball
« on: March 28, 2013, 08:16:31 AM »
Any of you blokes partake?  I was going to come on here and offer up that I need a couple spots in my 10 team weekly h2h but then I thought it might be actually kind of fun to have a gE league.  Any thoughts?

Not interested as I'm in another league with some Brooooooo's and fantasy baseball takes up alot more time than football.

FB is a good time killer over the summer though, fun stuff!

Yeah daily roster changes can definitely take up alot of your time.  That's why I like the weekly head2head stuff.  Locks before first game on monday and therefore you can just adjust the sunday evening before...  lots of fun and then the next thing you know it's football season!

The league I play in it only locks for each day...So if you want to win you need to constantly shuffle players in and out of the lineup to make up for days they are off....Also have to plan out your pitchers starts so you dont have your stud pitcher waste a start because you have already hit your max allowed starts for the week.

It doesn't look like this thing is taking off.  So the offer still stands for anyone that wants to join my league.  I have two spots open (its a weekly h2h 10 team league at CBS.)

I would play in a gE league even though I'm already in like 3 other leagues.  Because friends do stuff together

I agree, but it looks like everyone is too cool for school or something...

Let's run with this and see what happens.  I'll set it up for a draft tonight and see what happens.  Anyone have any preferences for providers? (ESPN, YAHOO, CBS)  I've played them all and it seems like CBS has the best weekly setup for peeps that don't want to get too involved...

What do you think?

SabiNation, can you go at least log in to saltball before you take on another league?  Jesus Christ.

I only volunteered to do this league because you did first!   :frown:

Okay I'll go set up the roster and sign some guys to multi-years...  :clac:

I know it's 2 months till opening day but:

Let's do a CBS/ lock your lineups once a week/head to head league.

fantasy baseball is a lot of fun but daily lineup changes take too much time.  I have played in one of these leagues in the past and they are a lot of fun and great for everyone (casual to hardcore players)

I will just put this link here and anyone that is interested feel free to join up!  It's always fun!
