Re: NFBC Chicago Returns To Sheraton Northbrook In 2022
……. End of an era? My first NFBC event was in 2007, it was an online Satellite league. Dave Van derStuyf easily won that league. I didn’t know it then, but I was going to have plenty of opportunities to finish behind Dave in the standings for years to come. In 2008 I competed in my first Main Event....

Re: John Pausma Is The 8th Inductee To The NFBC Hall of Fame
Like most of us, I joined the NFBC because I thought I knew the game and that I would be highly competitive in this format of fantasy baseball . However, it's not until you play in the NFBC against players like John Pausma do find out what competitive fantasy baseball really is. As a player that has...

Re: Common Players On 2021 Top 100 National Teams
I think Phil was the first Main Event winner to start with a P in round 1. Did you know.....that the top 5 finishers in the main event all started with P? In fact, 3 of the top 5 started two yellow! How times have changed. Phil - Pick 3 - deGrom / Machado Ruland - Pick 15 - Nola / Darvish Phil - Pi...

Re: This Is The Final Scoring Period Of 2021 NFBC Season
Feel free to discuss. We are launching the 2022 site next week with this rule the same as it was in 2021, but again I'm open for discussion. It's part of MLB's regular season and thus part of the seasonal stats, so is it fair to give owners a chance to change their starting lineups for that play-in...

This is great! Thank you. Two questions: 1) Can you add owner as well to the board? We can see it in the results but not on the board. 2) Glenn - can you ask for no game 163 inclusion? John So to make these all visible, they are public boards that don't contain owners' names. Sorry. We had this sur...

Re: Lineup Lock Times This Week
So as you can tell this morning, you are still able to move Starting Pitchers in and out of your starting lineups. Nothing locked last night before the Yankees-Red Sox game, which was ultimately cancelled. We believe the system will allow you to move your pitchers and hitters today until the start ...

Re: 2022 Rule Changes? Saves?
Like Doughboys said, the game is evolving and it's also a zero-sum game. No rule change is going to give anyone an advantage. For me, it's more about do we evolve with the game and do we keep stat categories that are increasingly irrelevant and therefore more frustrating to find because real MLB ma...

Re: Innings Minimum
The fairest way to deal with missed minimums is neither of the above as I've argued before. Penalize the offender to the extent they missed the minimum and adjust their team stats and standings accordingly. If you miss by one inning you should not lose 10 points in standings since plugging in the w...

Re: Innings Minimum
In 2019 the average IP of all 570 Main Event teams was 1326, 30+% above the minimum needed innings. That was the average. Just 9 teams didn't make 1000, and I would guess they didn't make much effort at the end. Only 4% of All Main Event teams were even under 1100 innings pitched. I understand some ...

Re: 163rd Game Play-In Final Survey Results
Wasn't my suggestion, but I do like this one Allow a pitcher who has not pitched M-Th to be swapped out & replaced on Friday, i.e. a P does not lock until he enters a game & accumulates stats M-Th. Thank you. 8-) That was mine (& probably not an original thought & probably read it suggested by some...
