I'll probably be auto drafting as well but my drafting skills have always been lacking I'm a waiver wire dude

I think we have the exact same playerlist for both H2H and keeper minus Brass who isn't doing the keeper. I was under the impression that there's no need for the new players to designate keepers until next year. So like, all the new players (me, Sharon, TIAM) would draft from the pile of players that are not kept and then next season we select keepers from our draft/waiver pile.

Yeah, I'm not doing two leagues, sorry. I'd rather do H2H

I'm deGrominators in the H2H by the way.

With Ohtani, I was kind of glad that my team of choice didn't look into him. I feel like every player outside of Ichiro from Japan has not been great.

Who was the last big Japanese player, Dice-K? He last played relief for the Mets and has since gone back to Japan (I just found out). The game is played differently here.

I drafted him one season. Starting catcher regret that year.

One of my favorite and one of my least favorite players are both Hawaiian.

At this point both may be retired

ditto.

Does it make it better or worse for me that it was his rookie year and I somehow decided he was a starting Catcher?

I don't want to tell you how to play a keeper league, but I'd be an unabashed homer and grab Michael Conforto on the cheap if he was available.

I just got an email that the H2H league is drafting tomorrow, didn't we say Sunday?

brassherald · Post Post #126 (isolation #10) » Thu Mar 22, 2018 3:30 am

Nevermind, I'm a butthead.

brassherald · Post Post #135 (isolation #11) » Thu Mar 22, 2018 7:14 am

I think every league I have been in save 1 has randomized the draft order. The one was an office fantasy football league where we picked from a hat.

That league kind of sucked and should never be followed. The commissioner didn't collect the entrance fees from all the teams, he never presented any money to the person who won the league from what he did actually collect, he never returned the money he collected to the people who paid in. All in all, I think randomized an hour before is fine.

brassherald · Post Post #136 (isolation #12) » Thu Mar 22, 2018 7:17 am

FYI, not only did I not join the next year, I actually told new people in the office not to join.

I've gotten the last pick in my first year in 3 fantasy leagues in a row. LETS GO!

I'm so glad I just tried to use my app to draft because I just realized since I last did a Yahoo league, I forgot how to use their app. Guess it's computer drafting for me

Yo, just want to let you all know in the H2H league, I know two people have spoken about trades, I operate under the idea that no one is off limits to trade. If you want to engage in trades with the deGrominators, feel free to shoot over offers and I'll consider them.

When's opening day? Haha, just kidding, I already hit Mets traffic on my way to work this morning (I work in Queens).

brassherald · Post Post #176 (isolation #17) » Thu Mar 29, 2018 6:39 am

I did not get the Opening Day tickets from my client this year, so I have to wait until August to be first row behind the plate at Citi Field...

brassherald · Post Post #178 (isolation #18) » Thu Mar 29, 2018 8:16 am

As of right now, Jay Bruce is tied for the league lead in Stolen bases...

brassherald · Post Post #180 (isolation #19) » Fri Mar 30, 2018 12:30 am

I'm super confused by the head to head scoring now, what happened to yesterday stats?

I'd join that if I'm around at the time. Other than my father and a semi retired attorney at work, I have no one to really talk baseball with these days

brassherald · Post Post #196 (isolation #22) » Sun Apr 22, 2018 7:05 am

I just realized I forgot to actually set my lineup for the past like 4 days.

brassherald · Post Post #201 (isolation #23) » Thu May 10, 2018 7:52 am

Yo, can I hire someone to set my lineup once in a while? Is that against the rules?

Lol, I just keep forgetting some games start at 1, so I end up not setting my lineup with afternoon games in mind.

Did you know we have to set a lineup EVERY DAY?

I'm shocked

brassherald · Post Post #219 (isolation #27) » Wed Jul 18, 2018 4:14 am

I'm trying to remember to set my lineup every day, I've just had a busy summer.

Tebow is going to be called up to the Majors today.

Then he'll catch polio and go on the DL.
