2011 DGR Fantasy Baseball League

[zj1002]

The DGR division is going to be hard to advance out of for the playoffs(I am assuming I can turn my team around)

[zj1002]

last year didn't we have a max amount of moves per week?

[Mr. Plow]

last year didn't we have a max amount of moves per week?

Yes. I did that to keep people from trying to stream SP in order to win, mainly because the league was so small. With 12 teams this season you can stream all you want, at the expense of your ERA and WHIP!

Edit: I wanted to go with a Max Starts/Week limit, but Yahoo doesn't allow this for some reason. Just another reason ESPN is better.

Dude, ESPN sucks! I will never use it again after using them for our NFL league last year.

[Mr. Plow]

CJ, I am not talking about football. Though I will say all of Yahoo's fantasy sites haven't had a redesign in years, and look like they were created by some kid for a school project.

I have no vested interest in either site, but for ease of use and features ESPN kills Yahoo for baseball. The message board system is top notch (as in it's more like a forum), LM can customize the league home page, LM can hand out weekly trophies, and ESPN offers about 1000 other features not available at Yahoo. From the standpoint of the person running the league (that's me) ESPN is way easier to use.

For fantasy baseball ESPN is setting the curve, and Yahoo is still about 5 years behind.

Yeah, my team sucks. I'm losing the 11 vs 12 place battle, lol. I've had 12 players hit the DL this year...

[Mr. Plow]

12 players on the DL? Ouch. I thought my 8 in another league was bad, though it was a $50 buy-in. After giving Frank a beat down my team is looking decent, finally.

[Frank Delicious]

Someone make a trade with me!!!!!!

[Mr. Plow]

Pujols for Michael Brantley?

Are you one of those trade addicts? I've played with guys whose roster has completely changed by June, and they don't even have anyone they drafted left. That's just ridiculous I say.

[Frank Delicious]

No I just have good SP and want a not-mark-reynolds 3B.

[Mr. Plow]

Well Frankie, looks like I may be owing you a disc.

Stupid KC pitching.

*shakes fist

[Mr. Plow]

So, my team has finally started to redeem themselves and put some beatings on the DGCR division. Hitting Chains is still looking like they're the team to beat.

In other news, KC is only 1/2 a game back on the O's now. Yesssss! I was thinking Frank... what shall we do in the event of a tie? Call it even?

[Frank Delicious]

call it even sounds good.


or double up next year!

[zj1002]

so went to check the team this morning.

No stats were taken for Sunday in the totals and I guess yahoo failed to move to the next week.

I don't see any match-ups listed. It has 3 teams indicated as moving on, and the matchup between hitting chains and gone on halladay is still in progress for some reason.

considering I have 3 SP going up today...this better get fixed
