Who is interested in an OT.com Fantasy Baseball League? — Page 2

Just so you know, it would MUCH easier if people went to this link:

http://baseball.fantasysports.yahoo.com/b1/register/createjoin?.scrumb=

The one you provide just gives an error cuz it's thinking the person is in the league already.

People can click on that link above, hit the "Join League" button, then submit their info, including the password (ask Frinky) and the League ID Number, which is 274328.

Might wanna update the first post. ;)

S'ok. I've had four different Yahoo teams previously (two of them being basketball teams running now), so I'm used to the enrigamarollment process. :p

P.S. I say definitely invite FE peeps as well! The more the merrier! The league is so deep that even with a lot of teams, we'll all still have tons of great talent on our teams.

Got my team set up.

When is the draft? Because I have already called David Eckstein in this thread, and you guys would be a bunch of poopy-heads if you went ahead and drafted him anyway.

In my other league, the commish had the draft date set 45 days before the season opener. Haha. It'll probably change half a dozen times.

Sunday night (around 8 or 9-ish EST) usually seems to be a good time where most people are home and able to do the draft. If they can't, it'll auto-draft, but it's more fun to pick yourself.

When the time comes, there will be a box that opens for the draft. It'll show all of us in one column, the players available to pick in another column, etc... When it's your turn to make a pick, you just click on the player, then hit the "draft" button or something. It's really simple, as is the whole game. Very intuitive.

You should be able to do a "mock" draft if you want to practice, as well. Just have a look around the site and you should find it somewhere/sometime. Sorry I can't be more specific, but trust me, people catch on very quickly with the Yahoo games.

I noticed you have it set up as a rotisserie league, which is what I did last season. It's really different from the daily points dealy, but very interesting. I liked it. :)

I would join, but I have 0 interest in baseball, and I played fantasy football once, where I never logged in after the draft.  I think I'd be a bit better at football since I understand it a bit more and know some of the players...

I remember Frank Thomas. I had a few of his cards.  He was my random "favorite player" back when I collected baseball cards.  Does he still play? ;-)

But seriously, if you need another body to beat the living crap out of, I can try it.

OH, and one time we did one of those college basketball finals tree things, and I won the award for not getting a single one right!

Actually he just officially retired this month, believe it or not.  But he sat out all last year and played very little the few years prior.

Thanks for the offer oh-oh-5.  I'll keep you in mind if we end up short on road kill ;-)

Wow, I was totally joking about Frank Thomas.  Man, you can play baseball forever!
