hi Mitch, maybe try a free league on yahoo or espn before you jump into a cash league...

**astro61200** · 03-07-16, 12:46 PM

Eff it, I'll hop in. Paying off the loan gradually anyway so poker will suffice for that.

I like the scoring, some are questionable but the pre-rendered lists will be useless with it so that's a big draw for me. No autopicking to bail out clueless people.

**mpaschal34** · 03-07-16, 01:38 PM

Been looking at the roster/scoring/transaction format and the main question I have is will there be unlimited transactions (current setting). If so, that could be a pitching streaming nightmare. Just wondered if we wanted some limits there.

**astro61200** · 03-07-16, 01:43 PM

I also am wondering why we only have 1 spot for the infield positions but 5 OF positions (plus a utility).. Seems like 3 OF positions would make more sense? Either way, doesn't really bother me, but just wondering.

I agree with mpas on the transactions. Unlimited streaming could cause an issue.

That's my holdup with doing FB. I would prefer a league, where you make waiver moves only once a week. I don't have the time to stream pitchers everyday. Otherwise, I would just play DFS baseball. But, I do like the 5 OF positions. DK just changed their baseball rules to 2 OF/1U (removing the 1 OF position). (crazy)

I ran a league one year where you updated your lineup once a week, kind of like football not needing it everyday.. Nearly everyone HATED it

**mpaschal34** · 03-07-16, 08:03 PM

I've been in other ESPN leagues where you get one transaction per week. That seems to work pretty well.

You can stream a little or make changes for injured players.

**chico2663** · 03-08-16, 04:00 AM

don't you set your league once a week

**JAKEPEAVY21** · 03-08-16, 09:19 AM

chico is going to draft all the cinci reds

**agendaman** · 03-08-16, 09:24 AM

doubt it

at 2 pts/day it would take non-pros about a year and a half to pay league dues

I haven't played fantasy baseball in a while so not sure of the standard format but i left everything the same with the exception of adding a few spots to the bench and 1 extra DL spot. All the scoring, starting roster, and rules are default but open to any suggestions. Would think if you have good pitching you wouldn't be able to stream or risk losing a good pitcher. My guess is everyone will be streaming the bottom end of their rotation but like i said i don't care and am fine with restrictions.

**sharkbite8** · 03-10-16, 04:26 PM

It looks like you have the restriction of 12 starts per week. Which, I think is very fair and creates balance between regular rotation and streaming. Some starters will end up having 2 starts per head/head matchup.

Just need to confirm that the draft time doesn't interfere with anything. Do you mind putting me down for a spot?

**mpaschal34** · 03-10-16, 06:25 PM

Didn't see the 12 starts max. That should prevent streaming then. Good catch!
