southgadawg 52 Posted February 11, 2014 I think if I have done a yahoo fantasy baseball league it has been 5 years or more....but I am game. olsouthi@gmail.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sarge+ 3,436 Posted February 11, 2014 I'm in, but I need to have someone co-GM with me. By the middle of July, I doubt I'll have nearly enough time to run the team the way I want to. I guess I'm looking either for someone that really already knows what they are ding with this stuff, or someone that wants to learn. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BLUE 1,026 Posted February 12, 2014 Invites sent to southgadawg, Sarge, Trident, Bay, Vin and F4E. ATL, I need you to post or PM me your email, bro. Also, the draft is set for Saturday, March 15th at 9 PM EST. I've updated my OP to include the draft date and time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
southgadawg 52 Posted February 12, 2014 ROFL I definitely am NOT a fan of the tool to edit your draft rankings for Yahoo it definitely isn't as versatile or user friendly as the ESPN ones. But I have it more set for my preferences now. Can't wait to see what the team looks like after the draft. BTW I may have missed it but was this a daily line-up league? or a weekly line-up league?

Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted February 12, 2014 Officially joined. Thanks for the invite. I will have to think up of a great team name to steal from someone with a more creative mind than me in the coming days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tridentdawgpound 1,043 Posted February 14, 2014 Officially in as "Brave New World". I can do better than this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted February 14, 2014 I feel the same. Went with BlitzCraig. Also considered "Wacha Talkin' Bout Willis" Which is better? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vin+ 3,121 Posted February 14, 2014 The first one. Ranga had Watchu' talkin' about Willis as a fantasy football team name last season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted February 14, 2014 The first one. Ranga had Watchu' talkin' about Willis as a fantasy football team name last season. Different players are being punned on, Vin. those are clearly two different names. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted February 14, 2014 One syllable is different... The Price is Wong. Patrick Willis looks nothing like Michael Wacha -- regardless of syllables. Also, I made the "Wong" => Wrong connection while I was brainstorming last night but am embarrassed to say I did not come up with that. It's such an obvious choice... Not sure how I missed it. I now hate you for making very simple and basic connections that I could not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BLUE 1,026 Posted February 22, 2014 (edited) I'm looking for at least 2 more owners to make it a 10-teamer. I've got 2 in mind that played last season. Edited February 22, 2014 by BLUE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BLUE 1,026 Posted March 2, 2014 (edited) Greg's brother (I believe he's Crash3021 here at TGP), has suggested using OBP in place of batting average. If the majority of you guys would like OBP instead of batting average, I'll switch it. It doesn't matter much to me either way, because I will be curb-stomping all of you.

Sorry for not replying until now. It's a head-to-head league where you face one other commisioner per week, but you have to set your lineup on a daily basis (or if you're lazy like me, you can set your lineup for the whole week, unless you make some waiver wire transactions, which will cause your lineup to reset because Yahoo sucks). I love to work the waiver wire, though, which causes me headaches ... Edited April 1, 2014 by BLUE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tridentdawgpound 1,043 Posted March 2, 2014 I'd be in favor of switching AVG with OBP. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bay 2,003 Posted March 2, 2014 (edited) Yeah that was my brother but he isn't registered here. He's a little older then Crash who is a little older then me. I'm cool with OBP over AVG Edited March 2, 2014 by Bay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sarge+ 3,436 Posted March 2, 2014 OBP sounds good. It's a way better measure of a player's ability than AVG anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
