Great stuff as always Dough. I took the Summer off from the boards, but have enjoyed reading your stuff again!

From my perspective, I think that Wainwright goes higher in other drafts. Only one pitcher was drafted in the first round. Only one in the second. Only four in the third round. I don't think that pace will ring true with most other drafts. Or, maybe it will.... :) For my part, I went pitcher-heavy ...

Pretty Insane… I love it! I haven't seen anybody go that long without grabbing a bat in a draft, but we all know a guy that waits AT LEAST that long before grabbing his first pitcher

Would like to leave him on the bench for 1 year and let my time with Donaldson in the 24th Rd have 1 more year

Santana might deliver the same production as Kris Bryant in his 1st year in the bigs.

Totally agree, at first look you would think his Value / ADP takes a dip, but for next year I think its only upside for his #'s. Settling in at 1B proves to be good for guys bats and at his age, now is the time for him to go BOOM. 2015 might just be the year to grab Carlos Santana as it will be his ...

Carlos Santana is in an interesting position heading into 2015 for few reasons and I'm interested to see where people think he will be Drafted / Valued on Draft Day. FUN FACTS - No Longer Catcher Eligible - 1B & 3B Eligible for 2015 - Will likely play mostly 1B in 2015… he hit better once playing re...

Congrats to all of the guys on this short list! With the THOUSANDS of people playing the DC game, this is a very impressive task!

I was really wondering where Brantley, Rizzo and Vmart would go, thanks for sharing! I have drafted Brantley every year in most leagues and like other owners was blown away by his season, I expect him to fall back a bit next year. Rizzo in my opinion is just scratching the surface of his potential a...

I used to try and make people happy by playing in their Fantasy Football leagues, but by week 8 I was having a hard time caring enough to change my lineup or talk football. My 2015 Season starts today for baseball as crazy as that sounds to some and in someways, I enjoy the "offseason" of prepping a...

4th Annual 1000 SLOW DRAFT LEAGUE… WHAT A YEAR! - Greg & Barry DOMINATED and even finished 5th Place over all in the D.C. cashing another $2000! - Looks like Dave Potts and Jason Magoon tied for 2nd Place at 115.5 Points! - Matt has already contacted Greg and Barry about getting them the League Trop...

Really great hair, but he still sucks for my Fantasy Baseball Purposes!

I get it! Obviously the injuries have hurt everybody again this year, but this team I have has some how hung on and when an idiot like CJ Wilson blows up that bad, it just boils my blood !

HELLO ALL! I haven't been on here at all this year, but I just want the world to know that I think CJ Wilson SUCKS! I slaved over final week lineups in my keeper league I am still in the money in, SOME HOW (even though I've lost J Fernandez, Y Darvish, Tulo, Stanton, Melky Cabrera) and was counting ...

I thought we were starting at 8am? Whats the deal?

BUMP!
How we doing filling the league Todd?

How many openings do we have?

Todd, this has been a Slow Draft format the past couple of years and I would much prefer that it stay that way. We all voted to have it that way 2-3 years ago and I would vote to keep it that way.

I am guessing a lot of my picks will be made from work during the day (with some travel), and will be using an iPhone/iPad for a few picks I imagine. As a general question ... any issues drafting via Safari? Or is there a preference for other browsers, I.e Dolphin, VanillaSurf, Axis, etc.? Any insi...

15… interesting, considering that MtM is at 14 and I will have to listen to his non-stop chatter the entire draft! :shock: Nice work getting into MTM's head already Max. He's lost if not in the 15-hole. Well, more lost than usual that is. :D I do what I can! Hoping he grabs a pitcher before the 16t...

I was getting bored with my local league and wanted something a little bigger and more organized. I saw the NFBC in a Fantasy Baseball Magazine and got a Main Event team. As soon as I signed up, I got a phone call from Greg welcoming me to the NFBC as a fellow CheeseHead! That was 2009 and I've neve...

Best League I have EVER been a part of! Great time and because of the Keeper & Minor Leaguer aspect, its a All Year team to follow! Jump in, you will never look back!

I think its cute that you guys actually thought your vote and input counted, when in fact I run this league like a 3rd World Dictator

Now if I could only force my way into the money somehow

OK, here is the plan after hearing the MAJORITY

KDS Due Tuesday Jan. 14th at 8am CST.

Draft Starts Monday Feb. 17th in the AM.

Do you guys want to start on Monday Feb. 10th or Monday Feb. 17th?
Pitcher & Catchers start reporting the 8th - the 15th depending on the team.
Also, I think we should set a ADP / DRAFT order Goal of Tuesday Jan. 14th.
Thoughts?
