I'd be in.

jledou · 02-28-2017, 08:47 PM

I am good for another year. I am assuming we would like to modify the scoring/setting just a bit?

Roster Positions: C, 1B, 2B, 3B, SS, CI, MI, OF, OF, OF, OF, Util, SP, SP, RP, RP, P, P, P, P, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN, DL, DL, DL, NA
Batters Stat Categories: Runs (R), Hits (H), Home Runs (HR), Stolen Bases (SB), Strikeouts (K), On-base + Slugging Percentage (OPS)

Pitchers Stat Categories: Earned Run Average (ERA), (Walks + Hits)/ Innings Pitched (WHIP), Strikeouts per Nine Innings (K/9), On-base Percentage Against (OBPA), Quality Starts (QS), Saves + Holds (SV+H)

Waivers - 1 day

Playoffs: Week 23, 24 and 25 (6 teams) Note: Week 25 runs 7 days from Sep 25 to Oct 1

I think we are still open to more people jumping on board if anyone wants to jump in. I will check with the two guys that are not on the board.

jledou · 02-28-2017, 08:50 PM

And the min IP is at 40 right now.

elderboy02 · 03-01-2017, 08:43 AM

I'm in. How about lowering the min IP to 35? I started all my guys the last week of the year and got shafted. I was in no way trying to cheat...

jledou · 03-01-2017, 08:56 AM

since average innings pitched by starters are going down I would say average is 6/start if that

5 starts a week would set it at 30

I am even okay with going down to 24/25 as a min and allowing people to throw less starters if we want to.

I agree that the 40 was a struggle last year.

jledou · 03-01-2017, 08:58 AM

Also probably looking for a different pitching category other than OBPA and do we keep strikouts or move to RBIs for hitting?

elderboy02 · 03-01-2017, 09:42 AM

24/25 is fine with me.

mahtofire14 · 03-01-2017, 04:41 PM

I personally like RBIs so I would be fine with that.

jledou · 03-06-2017, 12:57 PM

Talked with Craig (Stan Mitka's Donuts) and he is out this year. Looks like we have 4-5 for sure so we might need to scrounge up 3-4 players if there is anyone interested.

mahtofire14 · 03-09-2017, 04:38 PM

I may have someone who is interested. Has played in my other league in the past. I'll talk to him.

hotreds · 03-13-2017, 03:26 PM

Definitely would like to see RBI i/o Ks for batters. Also think we should have 3SP and 3RP and 2P categories. Don't like the OBP against as pitching category; do they maybe have a walks per nine innings? 28 IP seems low; how about 35? Just a few thoughts.....

jledou · 03-13-2017, 03:52 PM

They have a K/walk ratio for pitchers and a walks/9 ... I set a K/W but I am also OK with W/9 depending on how you guys would prefer. I switched over the RBI and increased the inning min back to 35.

shilala · 03-13-2017, 04:31 PM

I signed up awhile ago. I'm always in.

hotreds · 03-13-2017, 08:19 PM

My thought is that since we have a k/9 why not a walk/9? Do we already have 7 players? And, will this, in fact, be an offline draft? Never done one of these before.....

jledou · 03-15-2017, 07:44 AM

I have not heard from Dman so I think we are at 6 right now. I will flip the draft to online live draft like normal once we are set. Walk/9 works for me I will change that later today.

hotreds · 03-15-2017, 09:36 AM

Sounds good. I think 8 teams realistically is the min, but......

dman4505 · 03-15-2017, 09:24 PM

Oh I'm in and looks like we're at 7 teams right now

mahtofire14 · 03-21-2017, 07:59 AM

Have we set a draft date?

jledou · 03-22-2017, 05:27 PM

Not yet, we need at least one more to get a min of 8. Dominic will play again this year but would prefer not to as his wife will graduate med school this year and a move may be in his future during the season.

I have been hitting up all of the people I play football with but no takers on baseball.

Assuming we can find 1-2 more, when do you guys want to draft?

hotreds · 03-22-2017, 09:50 PM

April 1, 8pm EDT?
