Fantasy Baseball: Keeper League (Open to new entrants)

That's some tough luck dude.

Re the DL vote, can't change mid-season anyway so will update it in the offseason.
League seems to be in favour of it so far.

May have to kick out Hotballs and Seamonkeys for next year. Both zero moves to date, with DL guys in starting spots.

Have jumped from 11th to 7th in a couple of weeks...I'm on the move!

Only two weeks left!

Main interest is the battle for the final playoff spot.

UCD Jets keeping their hopes alive with a 9-2 win over the 3rd placed Kinda32

Just 6 games back from last years champions

Wrong thread I think Mike

Also, put up trade block, worthwhile for anyone looking to improve their roster

Worst trade ever, ugh!

Congrats to the Rebel Army, won the league at a canter. 125 points out of a possible 140, very impressive.

Emailed everyone in the league to check who's back.

Let me know either via the ESPN page or here if you're back in lads.

Thanks,

Rob

Bring on 2014!

I'm not going to continue this year, don't really have the time for more than one league. Actually can't remember my team name, as I took over from someone the year before and kept his name. Apologies, will try and look it up if needed.

Happy to be back to try and defend! bring on the new season..

When is this decided?

Have set draft so everyone should have gotten email about it by now.

Down to 9 teams after people dropping out and being removed for inactivity last year.

With league so shallow, added couple of roster spots to try and make it more competitive.
Now have 2 catchers (previously 1), 2 Util (1) and 10 pitchers (9).

Keepers lock 1 hour before draft

Adding players makes sense given the low number alright.. From looking at the league page though it seems you have changed pitchers from 9 to 15, as you have added SP and RP??

My bad, fixed that now

BigBadRob83

Also just to note lads, with some of the other teams being deleted there are some very good players available to draft. You don't have to use all of your keeper slots.

Cheers Big Bad Rob,

Just to say that I will be on an evening flight to Dublin again this year but hopefully will avoid last years drama and actually make it to the draft.

Make sure you adjust your pre-draft rankings then, just in case.
Hopefully won't be needed, but just in case.

Found another manager for the 10th team, had his pick of the available teams so he is resurrecting Got The Runs.

Lads,

Rosters should be locked until the draft, but can't change settings.

I am going to drop any players you are adding from Free Agency.

You are only allowed keep players who were on your own team last year

Can you reset the waivers then? I used my waiver to pick up players and drop existing players this morning so now my waiver spot is gone, the player I brought in got dropped, and the player I dropped stayed dropped. So now I have the lowest waiver and only 12 players on roster to pick keepers from

Apologies i went on and saw Mike Trout as a free agent and added before thinking! Only saw this note after the fact.

He is on a cant drop list but i have not included him as a keeper so he will be free later on.
