Re: 2023 NFBC Season Starts Today With Open Draft Room

Question: why are so many minor league pitchers listed as FA on the ADP list. Jack Leiter and Ricky Tiedemann are two examples. I often search for where players are on the list by looking at their team. So I would put the Texas Rangers in the drop down menu to see where Leiter is but he’s not on the...

Re: NFBC Introduces $50 Gladiator Leagues

As a long timer, love the concept. Not doing lineups is a big bonus. Appreciate it is a 15 team league. I was wondering if it will cut into the draft champions. Probably not. Also, I like doing leagues that prepare for the main event. Wish it were 30 rounds with all thirty in your lineup. Three catc...

Re: Tomorrow’s suspended game.

To clarify, Hernandez is pitching the suspended game for Miami. I get credit for his stats if I had him in my lineup back in April, even if he is no longer on my team. Is that correct?

Re: Tyler Anderson traded to Phils. Now Locked.

At 6:50 he became listed as a Pirate again and is not locked. You can all ignore this thread. But it was very odd. Never saw this before.

Re: Tyler Anderson traded to Phils. Now Locked.

At 6:22 deal was supposedly put on hold. He is now warming up in the Pittsburgh bullpen and is locked as a Philly. Unusual situation.

Tyler Anderson traded to Phils. Now Locked.

Tyler Anderson was a Pirate yesterday. Pirates did not play yesterday. I had until today at 7 to move him out of lineup. I was considering it. He was traded to Phils who played yesterday. The minute he was traded to Phils he was locked. Can't move him now even though I had options on the bench. Not ...

Re: Is There Interest In A Single-Entry NFBC Contest?

Thanks for your response. I only did one main event league this year. I would not have bet on that team in a separate league. More likely the person who does three or four will like one of his/her teams and enter the single league contest as you posit it even if they pick wrong. I would do a single ...

Re: Is There Interest In A Single-Entry NFBC Contest?

I like the concept of a single entry league. But I'm not certain about using an existing main event team. Isn't there a reasonable chance that the winner of the main event wins the single entry league also? Certainly the leader boards may look similar. Thoughts?

Re: Pending FAAB Feature

I agree completely. Great feature. I recommended one change to this feature in another post. It doesn’t refer to your team name. So if you are in three main events, it lists your pending FAAB for main event #923 #926 and # 928 for example. It does give the dates but it would be helpful to list team ...

Not sure when it was instituted but it is a great final check on your bids for all your teams in one place. One suggestion. I would like the pending FAAB pag...

I saw that someone bid $44 on Wandy Peralta (not Freddy) in the Diamond league this week. We all make mistakes. Switching from league to league with time running out was always hard. This is a great addition. Thanks very much! This and the up and down arrows made Sundays easier.

Re: Simple Rules for Pitchers / Mid Week Moves

I agree that there is no easy solution. But there is a certain pain, call it the pain in my "Soroka", when you lose a starting pitcher. Well admittedly, I would have no one to substitute for him at the moment. But if it could be programmed, and I think this was suggested many times, but give me ten ...

Re: Let's Compile The Latest Updates In This Thread

Swamp Fox, There may be other ways to find out if a minor leaguer like Buehler is on a team, but I find it as follows. When you are on the free agent page, where it says free agents, that is a drop down. The next item is "owned". So when you type in Buehler as a free agent and nothing appears, just ...

Thanks, Greg. I checked. The teams tab addition on live scoring was mentioned as an addition in a thread on April 13. It was in a long list and I just missed it.

Greg, I didn't realize you could see that info in live scoring by clicking on teams. It's an excellent feature. I think many of us don't know all of the info that's on the new site. It probably will take time to navigate all the new features.

Just another thought about the new FAAB bidding tool that I don't think was mentioned. Let's say you suspect Nick Ahmed is owned in some leagues but not others. So you are in your main event in free agents and you type in his name but it doesn't show up because he is owned. All you need to do is cha...
