NFBC Message Boards

That is an interesting take on the usage between the mobile app and desktop computer type systems. I do all of the important type stuff like Setting Lineups and FAAB work on the laptop on a daily basis. I use the mobile app to follow live scoring and any last minute lineup changes that need to be m...

The lock icon should be there soon if it’s not there already. The Save button will be added to the bottom of Set Lineup. We apologize for the four teams that didn’t play still being locked today. Our program locks all pitchers on Fridays and it would be tough to change that for this one exception. ...

Agree with John, the 'lock' icon is missing from all players this year. Also, when hitting 'Save] for lineups, a message appears that we have had success IN saving the lineup, then have to hit x to start another lineup. Can the 'Success' notification just be an alert that fades without us having to...

The annual post keeps getting better and better Dan! Well done

Can’t wait to see the picks Mia!

We manually over rode our stat providers' team designation today on many of the current Free Agents who are being drafted in the NFBC. They should show FA right now. As soon as they sign with a new team, the stat provider will over ride our FA designation. Thanks for the suggestion. That was easy, ...

So we don't have expected high winds in Vegas for draft weekend, but we don have a travel advisory regarding specific 737 MAX 8 flights.

Southwest seems pretty busy, had a 119 minute wait to talk to someone.

I'll participate!

There is one aspect to all of this, however, that depresses me. Look at the big activity we've had so far. Thus, before we get to Spring Training, I count about half of the teams as having no chance to win, and who seemingly are in or on the verge of a rebuild, or who just tread water content to be...

I am not in love with Philly signing McCutchen. If having a lot of money to spend, 50 million on an aging player would not be where I'd start with the signing of players. Philly could be thinking that if missing out on the Harper 'sweepstakes' that they'll still have 'a guy' for the outfield. With ...

Thus, before we get to Spring Training, I count about half of the teams as having no chance to win, and who seemingly are in or on the verge of a rebuild, or who just tread water content to be mediocre. I fear that our game is somewhat broken, and that players will get increasingly pissed, and fans...

As for Corbin, it is amazing how a guy can make so much money by being so inconsistent, Still, he had a good year on his contract year. That means a lot in this day and age. I believe Corbin will pitch more like Strasburg and not like Scherzer for the Nationals. Strasburg has never been the pitcher...

I think of all the work Dipoto has already accomplished during the first month of the off season, then think about the Baltimore Orioles who can't even decide on a Manager in the same time frame. The Orioles have a chance to break the new franchise New York Mets record for losses this upcoming year...

I love drafting. Maybe even more than the pursuit of trying to win a league. You may laugh. But, I know a fella that drafted almost 30 NFBC teams last year, then tried to do minimal work in in-season management, lineups and FAAB. THAT is a guy who likes drafting more than any other part of our hobb...

The Cano/Diaz deal is great for the Mariners. I personally wouldn't want to trade Bruce, he is a useful at bat and has a manageable contract at $13 million for the next two years and can play OF/1B. Which they will need once they trade Haniger. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: The selling of Segura is ...

The other day while drafting, a drafter selected Whit Merrifield and told the league" Trea Turner Lite!" I responded, "Nope, Trea Turner... period" Over the last two years, Merrifield has over 100 more at bats, but look at this comp. These are the last two year statistics of Turner and Merrifield. ...

Same here...Ugh

Kingery missing from mine.

So read an article yesterday regarding players that would have been free agents had they not signed contracts during their six years of service time. So in addition to the 100 plus Free Agents And The players that headline Free Agency this year; JDM, Hosmer, Moustakas, Darvish, Arrieta, Lynn, Cobb. ...

So here is our team. Have at it... C1 Tyler Flowers $1 C2 Chris Iannetta $2 1B Ryan Healy $6 2B Jose Altuve $44 3B Joey Gallo $12 SS Jean Segura $16 MI Amed Rosario $3 CI Trey Mancini $6 OF Mike Trout $45 OF Eddie Rosario $11 OF Jay Bruce $10 OF Domingo Santana $13 OF Brett Gardner $3 UT Dexter Fowl...

I enjoyed the nostalgia of stickers at FPAZ 17. And you are right Dan, it did give us more time. Particularly when they were looking for the Ohtani one.

And the tradition continues. 3 years and going. Thanks Greg! Thanks Dan for organizing!

MTM, I expect a text at 0600 hours.

How does Jeter do that trade without DEMANDING Gleybar Torres? At least get Clint Frazier in the deal. He has no chance of playing in New York now, right? What was the hurry to unload Stanton, Jeets? Hold out a little longer and get the Red Sox involved. Anyone to force the Yankees' hand a little. ...

Still, this Angels fan is excited.

I miss the manager with fire. I miss the tirades. Now most of the time its holding a finger up signify "wait, we are reviewing the play." I miss the hat throw, the dirt kick, the base being stolen (literally) during a game. Is that really better for baseball? A kindler, gentler baseball? Next thing ...

Now can we have pancakes?
