Earl of Baltimore
Jon

Do you have and record of the previous line-ups?

I remember only a select few that I wanted to keep. I wrote all the names down somewhere but I cant seem to find it.

thanks man

[birdsfan4ever]

I will be back, how many players do we keep?

[Border Bird]

We kept 6 last year. I'd actually like to see us keep 7 this year.

[Lefty0315]

Sounds good to me.

[Jon]

Count me in for another year.

Are we thinking of having a league vote on # of keepers...or what's the plan?

Obviously,It should be the Commish's prerogative to decide on the #,but if my vote counts any,I would like to see 9 or even 10 keepers this year.

With only 6 or 7,there's too much turnover and lack of accountability for how well or poor we've constructed our rosters IMO.

Wow, somebody likes his team.

I think we need to reach some agreement on it -- by vote or whatever. I worry that if we have too many keepers, those with poor teams will get discouraged and drop out because it becomes hard to improve much when the top 120 players in the league are already taken.

I hear ya and it's your call Commish....But if you look at the rosters,even Weams who finished last,would hardly struggle to find higher than 6 or 7 stud keepers.

With a roster of 25,I'd like to be able to retain a decent amount of my players.

Honestly though,you're the man who decides what's the master plan...


Anyone else out there have an opinion?

[Border Bird]

Actually, OrioleMagic has been our commissioner, but he wrote me to say that he would be too busy this year. I'll do it if that is OK with others.

Yea,I saw the emails and thanks for taking over.

Lets just hope more rejoin and we can get the ball rolling here shortly...

[bernie132000]

I'm in. Wow my pitchers sucked last year. My hitters are good though.

Are we allowed to trade before the draft?

[Border Bird]

At least two of our managers are bowing out this year, so we will have openings in our Yahoo keeper league. It's a free 6x6 rotisserie league. PM me if you are interested and I'll send you the ID and password.
