I wonder if it's possible to add a conditional pick option (or maybe pick one and then a pick two), this would be helpful for those that draft on the turn or close to it. Say I'm picking on the turn, and I'm coming up in 4-picks, and I know I want a SP with the first pick, and then a SS with my nex...

I picked 1st in this draft and couldn't believe Kershaw kept falling, I mean I'm not down on Ency or Freeman by any means, but I'm not passing on the most dominant pitcher in years to grab a First Baseman like that in the 1st round.

Any update on this league? The draft spots weren't set and the announced start time is 5 minutes from now, no draft room available yet,

For $400, I think I'd enter about 5 of these if they were part of the Overall competition.

Gattis playing LF tonight for the Braves with McCann back behind the plate. Based on the TBS broadcast Sunday it sounds like Gattis will get plenty of time in the OF now when he isn't catching until Heyward comes back. When Heyward's back things will get interesthttp://nfbc-hosted.stats.com/mlb/sta...

There were plenty of pithcers back in those days that pitched right through elbow and shoulder problems. Amzing how soft msot of them have become these days. Those players were essentially "slaves", owners didn't really care if they got hurt and missed the rest of their career, they just got the mo...

You mean Gregorius isn't gonna continue at a 50+ HR pace? I want my FAAB money back!!!

$391 was the highest I saw, I'm sure there was a monster bid or two out there.

Hoping I stole him for $54 on Pollos Main team, most other bids I saw were upwards of $80+; didn't even see him go for less than $60 in many 12-teamers.

You mean Jose Fernandez?

Nice work Jeff, we're breathing down your neck though.

Would much prefer the stats in columns, hard to tell if my guy had 1 2B or 1 BB without taking a good look at it. And the game by game batting average is a waste of space, do you really need to see (.600) to know that 3-5 is a .600 average? AB- R - H - 2B - 3B - HR - RBI - SB - BB - K (would be all ...

Thanks guys, I'll be headed back into the pack here shortly, short bench is gonna eat me up early on. Nice to get a little in the bank though, never hurts.

No one should go for 400

Must look like a soccer ball coming over the plate to him right now, just mashing.

Bingo. Nice pick Sir.

Looks like those last 3 picks are made up of the most underrated guys from the New York draft :D Too bad the team that's going to win it all this year hasn't been picked yet. :P :mrgreen: There's still time though. Maybe if Erickson pulls his head out of his ass in time, he'll be able to win this t...

Going to be a long year.

Called the "50/50/90 rule"

Whenever you have a 50/50 shot at picking something right, you miss it 90% of the time.

Ended up waiting a little too long for a 2nd Closer in OL Main and a 3rd in an XII (well, 2nd closer after Kenley as the #2) -- knew the Ratios were gonna take a hit, just wanted to try to get some saves piled up before he lost him job (love Fuji, was just hoping Marmol would be serviceable enough t...

Think I have like 4 or 5 teams with 1 total HR+SB right now.

My most important players (Out of 3 Mains, 3 XII, 5 OL): Paul Maholm (2/3/2 -- only on 7 of 11 teams, lol) Nelson Cruz (3/1/1 -- on all 3 Mains) Maicer Izturis (2/1/3) Addison Reed (2/2/1) Brett Lawrie (2/1/2) Corey Hart (2/1/2) Shaun Marcum (2/2/0) Jason Heyward (1/2/2) Nolan Reimold (1/2/2) Sergio...

Lovely, dead last choice on my KDS, and Jupinka gets another #1, joke. I can't tell if you are kidding or not but 1) I think this contest can be won from any position and 2) I feel like there is zero chance that Greg, Tom, or anyone at Stats would mess with altering KDS results regardless of who th...
