New Fantasy Baseball League

[HoopsterG]

Ray Of Hope will be back. Hoping my team doesn't end up becoming the IL like it was last year.

We are Family is back

That's nine. Still waiting on Tet Corporation, Grand Theft Votto, and Nationalists.

 

[outofplace]

Bump. Need confirmation on members soon so we can move forward with picking dates for our keeper lists and the draft.

 

[outofplace]

I just renewed the league for the 2021 season. One last time, I'm asking for the owners of Tet Corporation, Grand Theft Votto, and Nationalists to confirm if they are returning or not.

While we wait, I would like to float March 20 or 21 as potential draft dates. That is a Saturday and a Sunday. I assume weekends work best. The following weekend is out for me for personal reasons.

I would like to do cuts Feb. 16 unless we have any objections. I've got some extra time that week, so I'd like to be able to adjust the draft order then. I can't do that until I know everybody's keepers. Remember, we agreed upon six keepers. The keeper costs you a draft pick two rounds ahead of where you drafted him last season. So if you took a player in the fifth round, it would cost you your third-round pick in the 2021 draft to keep him. This also means players taken in the first two rounds of the 2020 draft cannot be kept. Undrafted free agents that you picked up would cost you a pick in the 23rd round. If you have two players with the same round draft value, they cost you that round and the one before, so if I had two 23rd-rounders, I would lose my selections in the 22nd and 23rd rounds.

It looks like you can select your keepers through the site, then I approve them. I haven't done this before, so I'm going to suggest you email me your keepers through the site as well just to be sure there are no problems.

Tet Corporation is confirmed. Just need to hear from the Nationalists and Grand Theft Votto.

 

[Guy_Incognito]

I can't do Saturday, unless it's late at night.

 

[outofplace]

I'm good with March 21, the Sunday, but let's see what others think.

I'm tentatively going to set Feb. 16 as the cut-down date. I may push it back if we have to replace any owners, as we still haven't heard from the last two.

 

[outofplace]

The Nationalists just replied and he does not want to return. I appreciate hearing back soon enough that we can find a replacement. Does anybody know of someone who would like to join?

By the way, here is the draft order (based on last year's standings.) I assumed we were going forward with a snake draft. (I really hate the No. 2/23 spot. Second year in a row, dammit.)

1. Magnify Yanks
2. Tampico Stogies
3. Houston Trashtros
4. Nationalists
5. A To The Rizzo
6. Ray of Hope
7. We are Family
8. Grand Theft Votto
9. Sterling Silver
10. Porky Puig
11. Janitors of Anarchy
12. Tet Corporation

If you would like to check what round your players were drafted, select draft results, then select last season. By the way, the order is not correct yet for this season because I haven't done the draft settings yet.

Sunday is definitely better than Saturday for me. I prefer a weeknight, but I can make a Sunday work.

 

[Scout]

Weeknight > weekend, but I'll make the weekend work.

 

[Baron Scicluna]

I can probably do either a weekend or a weeknight, although weekends are preferable. It just depends on if the family suddenly wants me to do something.
