Crap that was today?

So I'm autodrafting without my keepers. gonna be a long year

For the record, I was planning on massive bargains for Altuve and Harper as well as keeping Puig. Hadn't figured the rest yet.

[zoraster]

if you want to submit, i'll still take them as long as they come soon.

[Kmd4390]

I can have it tomorrow if that's ok

[zoraster]

okay, but i'll have to cut you off if i don't have it by tonight. I want people to have time to plan their auctions.

[zoraster]

okay. keepers are set. they're the ones marked with a K. I hate Yahoo. This is the second time I'm going to have to back in and do it over because while it marked keepers, it deleted the costs I put in. The keeper players are correct, though.

[D3f3nd3r]

I wanted Corey Seager, not Kyle.

[zoraster]

doh

[D3f3nd3r]

It's confusing when both of them are on the same team

[AGar]

Can we get a master list of keepers/costs, Zor?

[zoraster]

Sure. I'll put that together tomorrow morning.

[zoraster]

Kind of exhausting, but you can see all the keepers and their costs here: http://baseball.fantasysports.yahoo.com ... aftresults

I hope it works. The keeper system on Yahoo is exceedingly difficult to manage.

[AGar]

Man 2B is already fucking poached this year.

Correction: MI is fucking poached. God damn.

[zoraster]

Using my projected values, I see the keeper value (projected value-keeper cost) for each team as:

Bert: +85
Lamora: +41
AGAR: +36
Zoraster: +35
D3f: +31
Rhinox: +27
Zach: +24
Anix: +0 (no keepers)
kmd: -2.33
DGB: -56.64

The vast majority of us are clustered between +24 and +41.... then there's Bert at the top, more than doubling the value Lamora has. And of course there's DGB, who's going with the studs and duds approach, paying Trout $71.

Anyway, don't forget about the auction tomorrow!

[AniX]

Whoa wait. I definitely sent you a PM that I'm keeping Rizzo.

[zoraster]

oh! I'm glad you spotted that then. I'll do it now.

[Kmd4390]

Good news. I got stabbed by a shank made from the metal in an oven rack at work (I'm a CO) so they gave me a sick day for the first half of my shift today meaning I can make the draft as long as I wake up in time (going to bed at 9:30AM, damn ER took forever) and the mobile app works right.

[zoraster]

holy cow. I hope you're doing all right.

apparently the draft room doesn't open until 15 minutes before the draft time? Has this changed? I swear we've been able to get in an hour ahead of time in the past.

I got in a little under an hour before the draft. No one else showed up until less than 15 mins before.

[Nero Cain]

When does this thing start?

[AGar]

Three games on April 3rd. If past seasons have been any indication, week 1 will be Sunday to Sunday and then all others will be Monday to Sunday.

E: Just checked Yahoo, that's how it'll roll out again this year.

[D3f3nd3r]

Damn, it's been a really rough first few days for pitchers - I've had a solid 4-5 starts between the two leagues that I could easily call clunkers - one of which ended up with an ERA of 135.

[Zachrulez]

The Twins are so god awful right now it's just painful to watch.

[AGar]

108.00 ERA and .083 OBP... My team doesn't understand how ratio categories work.
