New Fantasy Baseball League

[outofplace]

I never did post the draft order. Here goes.

1. Fields of Dreams
2. There's a Deep Drive to Left
3. Tet Corporation
4. Cinquantes
5. We are Family
6. Done Messed Up A-Aron
7. Porky Puig
8. Bigger Body of Bad Work
9. Tampico Stogies
10. Sterling Silver
11. Ray of Hope
12. Houston Trashtros

I'm also re-posting the rules just so they are easy to find on the thread.


League Rules

• Keepers will be due exactly one week before the draft each year. Effective for 2024, teams failing to turn in a roster on time will lose three keeper spots. If they are more than a day late, they will lose the remaining keeper spots. There will be no exceptions.
• Teams will be permitted and encouraged to turn in a keeper list early. Keeper lists may be submitted on the league thread on SJ.com, via PM, or by email to the commissioner at tampicostogies@yahoo.com. Owners may revise their list up until the deadline, so there is no penalty for submitting it early.
• Players will cost their owner a draft pick two slots higher than their cost the previous seasons. Undrafted players will cost a 20th-round pick. If you have two players who cost the same round, you may designate the order. If you do not, the commissioner will choose the order for you.
• Effective for the 2023 season, the league added an NA spot to allow for minor leaguers. That is determined by Yahoo's designations. Players who are suspended by MLB are not eligible for the NA spot.
• Effective 2023, the draft will be 26 rounds with an additional roster spot. NA is not a roster spot for the draft. Owners will have to move a player into that position or pick one up after the draft.
• Effective 2024, saves will be replaced by saves+holds.
  

I know Bigger Body of Bad Work and Fields of Dreams are coming back. Same for Houston Trashtros, Cinquantes, Porky Puig, and There's a Deep Drive to Left.

I know it's early, but I'd love to see a confirmation from the remaining owners that they will return. Once I have that, we can start looking at draft dates. Yes, I'm already in fantasy baseball mode and not just because the Steelers lost last night. I have one league with keepers due in three days.

Cinquantes are back too.

Anybody in this league interested in joining another one? It's a money league and more of a time commitment than this one. We had a couple of spots open up. It's a slow auction keeper. (I'll explain how that works if anybody is interested.) The commissioner is looking for referrals for new owners, so it has to be someone I've been in a league with before. PM me if you're interested.

This is just for my purposes. It's the draft order with the owners who have confirmed their return in bold.

I head from Ray of Hope's owner off the site. He's back, too.

The Family will return

The Family will return

Very good. That just leaves Tet Corporation. We've got time, but I'm hoping to make sure everyone is locked in by February.

Can we see the league in yahoo?

I tried on my phone, but could not.

It should be there now. I hadn't clicked renew yet.

Tet Corporation will be back.
