Fman99 Old-Timey Member Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 Ten owners is weak.Not much we can do about that. I am going to be home but also helping with the kids and such. Hopefully I will be able to make some of my own picks. Yahoo's auto-drafter is an a-hole.
smg58 Old-Timey Member Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 So how many picks will we be making this time around?
nymr83 Old-Timey Member Posted March 29, 2009 Author Posted March 29, 2009 29 including the bench. how long that takes will depend on how many people show up
metsmarathon Old-Timey Member Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 i've increased the roster requirements as we are now down to a sickeningly low 10 owners[/quote:5ykuibn5]i'm not a fan of this. mostly because i hate having two catchers, but also because i just did my pre-ranking last night for the way it was set up.
nymr83 Old-Timey Member Posted March 30, 2009 Author Posted March 30, 2009 sorry, i felt it had to be done, ten teams is just laughably small, worse than a standard yahoo league. the free agent pool is thick enough as is without throwing 40 more players in there. maybe a 2nd utility guy would have made people happier than a 2nd catcher but this was last minute when we realized how empty we were.next year we'll cap the teams at 12 and go NL only.

Ten teams are silly -- there are closers and 40 steal guys still out there on the wire even!
Vic Sage Old-Timey Member Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 um, well if you see any closers on the wire, let me know. That a-hole autodraft gave me Joba and Wood as my only 2 closers. i hate autodraft.
metsmarathon Old-Timey Member Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 the jerk running my draft seemed to think drafting catchers early was a wise move...
Guest GYC Guests Posted April 2, 2009 Posted April 2, 2009 Is it me or is 3 days for trades/waivers a bit long? It'll take 4 days after the claim/trade is accepted. I feel like 2 days is plenty of time.
