    I am interested.

    I have never played before. Where can i get info on how points are scored and how many players to draft etc...?

    Also i see that there are about 3 different leagues that do live drafts in Vegas at the Bellagio...

    which league do u recommend for a first time player? Prime Time or Main Event?

    Like first ever time playing fantasy baseball? Or first time doing this? Since I haven't done it yet, I don't know... this will be a tough league though. If you've never done fantasy baseball at all or just do it casually, probably just want to stick to your leagues. I basically do it year round...

    ive played fantasy football before and i watch and follow MLB more than any other sport so i feel like i could do it.

    From what i understand its all about getting a few guys on your team that really produce that arent really expected to...

    Like Jose Abreu would have been huge last year and Chris Davis that big break out season he had a few years ago.

    ^
    It's about putting the best team together by draft that fill out 5 categories on offense and 5 categories in pitching.
    To win you have to have the correct team balance of R RBI AVG HR and SB
    And pitching ERA WH/IP W K and Saves
