Can do. I'm going to edit the first post once some discussion gets on the way about which site we want to use for the league. Basically you pick players for each position and you can have a live draft or have a auto pick draft where you rank the players you want and it auto drafts to teams. The players on your team is awarded points based on stats. Hits, HRs, RBIs ect for batters and ERA, Wins, WHIP ect for pitchers. Most points in your matchup for the week wins. Every week you have a 1 vs 1 against someone else also in the league. Basically you want to form the best team. You can trade with other players in the league and also pick up people in free agency. You'll get the hang of it once you start playing.

yea i was gonna throw something together in early March. didn't think we needed something up a month in advance as Fantasy Baseball usually isn't as popular on here as Basketball.

But I'm in if you're running it.

 

[TheOneKnownAsFetter]

I'll run it. I mean Spring Training is just around the corner so it gives us plenty of time to get people in if they want to join. I'm just trying right now to see what site people want to use, also I mean if someone else wants to step up and run it they can. I'm down for whatever.

yahoo, and my vote is for standard 5x5 head to head this year. Last year was a clusterfuck. Lets just keep it simple.

 

[PHX]

I'll do this again will try and keep up with it better this time.

 

[TheOneKnownAsFetter]

Alright well if you want to run it through Yahoo you can go ahead and be Commish. Cause I'll switch my players and stuff every week but I don't know how active Ill be as a Commish. I want to make sure everyone enjoys the league this year without clusterfuck.

 

[Ghetto Anthony]

Alright let me put on my Bud Selig hat.

I should have won last year btw. Sal cheated.

 

[TheOneKnownAsFetter]

Ha Ha I don't plan on losing this year. So it's going to be a challenge for you sir.

League Set-up:
Standard 5x5 Head to Head.
R/HR/RBI/SB/BA
W/SV/K/ERA/WHIP

Draft currently set for Sunday March 18th, but we'll probably change it once the league gets put together. Current max teams set to 12, but obviously if the interest is there we'll bump it up.

That's all I've got for now. Anyone want to Co-Commish?

 

[hunterofthedusk27]

Sounds like fun. I have already signed up.

 

[TheOneKnownAsFetter]

I'll Co-Commish I reckon. Bout to set my team up right now.

 

[Ghetto Anthony]

I see me running this is scaring people off.

 

[LaBrandon Aldridge]

Yeah, I was going to join, but I see that Ghetto Anthony is the commissioner, so...
