Fantasy Baseball -- Help a NOOB!
 

So my buddies roped me into this free fantasy baseball league.

I showed up and did my draft, got some great players.

However, NOW WHAT?

Re: Fantasy Baseball -- Help a NOOB!
 

Depends on what kind of league you are in.

Re: Fantasy Baseball -- Help a NOOB!
 

Head to head.....something.

Re: Fantasy Baseball -- Help a NOOB!
 

Wait for your pitchers to all tear their rotator cuffs, or just go "Dontrell Willis". ;)

Re: Fantasy Baseball -- Help a NOOB!
 

Magic Cards, Fantasy Football....

Jeebus Darrell, what next? Sanitary Napkins???

:D

The big thing is making sure you pay attention to players that may be injured and not on the DL. Usually they give you recent news for each player. In the begining there is not much to do until you start seeing what your players are giving you for production.

What was that again in post #5 on that thread??

:D

Re: Fantasy Baseball -- Help a NOOB!
 

Yes, that was from WHEN I WAS A KID!

You know, when you made SSG?

I played baseball, basketball, football, wrestling and soccer when I was a kid - I couldn't tell you the stats of any of our games or even 1/3 of the guys on the teams...

But you -

Must have been quite an achievement.....:=:

And no, I didn't mean to crap on your thread, but, do we need to schedule some hormone shots for you??

I played Soccer and Basketball.......and Magic Card. :tg

I played fantasy BB one year, it's a long season. One thing to watch are catchers...some only play when certain pitchers pitch

What does it mean to "drop" a player?

Re: Fantasy Baseball -- Help a NOOB!
 

That means you kick him off your team...it opens up a slot so you can draft someone difffernet. Good to do that if a guy is out for the season or is a slug.

Re: Fantasy Baseball -- Help a NOOB!
 

Where are you playing? Yahoo, ESPN, CBS?? It's tough to really say what you should do w/o seeing your team and the rules of your league.

Re: Fantasy Baseball -- Help a NOOB!
 

Yahoo is where I am playing. I have some guys on the DL, what do I do with them?

Re: Fantasy Baseball -- Help a NOOB!
 

See how many "DL" slots you have, move them to those spots, and pick up players to replace them on your active roster.

Re: Fantasy Baseball -- Help a NOOB!
 

See if they're on the short term DL before you get rid of them. Some DL players are top notch and will greatly help you later in the season.

The only bad thing about Fantasy Baseball is that it's an everyday thing. You can win at fantasy football by only logging on once or twice a week. Fantasy baseball requires you to make adjustments on a daily basis. That's a loooonnnng season.

I like the Dontrelle Willis approach myself :)

Doesn't sound like you've ever played any fantasy sports..
