I've actually been looking to get into a league that's got OBP instead of AVG (its way better). So PM me the FULL rosters (or just the link to the league) and I'll tell you which team I'd like. But I'm in either way.
EDIT: I think I'm leaning towards Team B.

Good luck to whoever gets it!

Speaking of which, there's a new "Orioles 119 Rule" whereby I'll need to receive your $60 entries two weeks prior to the draft in order to draft. Shame I can't trust people but since Orioles 119 decided not to pay his entries last season - I realize times are tough but how do you justify screwing over the guy running the league - this new "Orioles 119 Rule" will be enacted going forward. If anyone has an issue with this "Orioles 119 Rule," maybe let Orioles 119 know that joining a prize league and then not paying the entry IS UNACCEPTABLE.
On a brighter note, McNulty has joined the league. Welcome McNulty!
TEAM A is still open. Inquiries have been made.

Sorry to hear that, it is unacceptable and I thought he was a better guy than that.
Who was the other guy to drop out?

We will also have to talk about the rule changes for this year...Really hoping this year can go smoothly and we should have the rules in place to ensure that happens.
You guys ever consider Roto? I think its vastly superior, but that's just me.

Nah we haven't in the past, it's always been H2H.
There's been issues with people making too many moves in some peoples eyes, such as picking up starters on Sunday to win the K's/Wins if you're far ahead in ERA and WHIP already. So we are probably either going to set it so you only set your rosters every week, or make a max weekly move rule where it would be impossible to skim. There was a disagreement on whether or not it was skimming and whether it was the right thing to do even if it was allowed, but that shouldn't be an issue this year.
It's a really competitive and active league. Good to have you aboard!
Roto takes care of that. I played it for the first time myself last year and I loved it.
You can also put the max starts for the week at like 7 or so (although I know you can pick up a buttload of guys on Sunday if you have 6 starts for the week).

Big welcome to BRob51, who has joined the league with his team named Flat Breezy. Love the name!
We'll convert this to the league thread to talk trade, smack and whatever else.

That would be me.
Yeah, after you guys kicked my butt for a few years, i decided to let you all do it to someone else. Good luck to all, and a sincere thanks to Finisher for putting this all together.

Note to self: Don't draft 4 catchers like last year...
Double note to self: Never trust Comcast internet in important times like drafting....
Looking forward to the season.

Don't forget this team has 7 picks in the first 4 rounds, including the second overall. :(
Whoever takes over better win!!

Yeah, we're in a bit of a bind here. Allstar1579 can't make the draft on Saturday but if we change the draft day we'll invariably negatively affect someone else.
This team is in excellent shape.

Sorry guys, scheduling conflicts, but no one wants to autodraft for a money league.
Finisher: if you don't find someone send me a PM, Ravenbird and I might have a solution in a pinch.
McNulty

I might know someone. Let me ask him.
Can I take over and trade Reyes to my other team?:D
