Re: 1st Auction of the season Saturday night

Something toward the end of February would be nice. The lone Auction-DC in March has 9 of 15 already filled.

Re: 2023 NFBC Season Starts Today With Open Draft Room

Does Tatis have dual eligibility or is he SS only? It's a good question. Per our rules: "Any player who missed all of the previous season to injury or retirement will qualify at the position he last was eligible for in the majors." That position will be Shortstop in 2023. Yes, he qualified at two p...

Here you go. If they played an equal number of games at DH as a position, then they are UT-only eligible: Andrelton Simmons - SS Zack Collins - UT Ryan Kreidler - SS Travis Shaw - UT Luis Liberato - UT Vinny Capra - UT Brandon Dixon - UT Christian Lopes - OF Brian O'Keefe - UT Donny Sands - UT Tony...

Re: 2023 NFBC Season Starts Today With Open Draft Room

Great idea on the ADP approach. You'll have a number of completed leagues by the end of the World Series as a solid base for ADP starting in November. Here are the hitters you'll need to determine position eligibility for: Andrelton Simmons - played 18 games at 2B & SS Zack Collins - played 13 games...

Re: 2023 MLB Schedule Opens With 15 Games On March 30

I assume the Hilton off 6th Avenue is one of the too expensive places since we previously used it in 2014 if not later than that. Two other options I can think of off the top of my head are the Javits Center which should have TONS of space or the Sheraton on 7th Ave., around the corner from the Hilt...

Site Suggestions

Two suggestions for the future: 1) Having the red IL designation (IL60, IL15, OUT, COV19, SUS etc.) next to the player name has been a welcome addition. I would expand this to say if the player is in the minors, maybe with a different color. 2) Given #1 above, having the player search feature under ...

Display: Own/Start %

It appears that only players with any major league stats this year display the own/start percentages when setting lineups and you click on “Show Stats”.

It would be helpful to see these numbers regardless of whether a player has accumulated any major league stats this year or not.

Re: A Discussion On The Pause Time For Draft Champions Leagues

I am in the "Other Suggestions" bucket, and it would be a choice per each drafter. For each drafter, they have an 8-hour pause window but they get to choose what time: 11pm-7am EST, 12am-8am EST, 1am-9am EST, 2am-10am EST, 3am-11am EST. This accommodates East Coasters and West Coasters evenly. Once ...

Re: No more Game 163

Sorry to be pedantic but I assume there’s still a very small possibility that a makeup Game 162 could be played (for playoff determination) after the regular season end date. Given the expansion of playoff teams this gets a little bit likelier, although still rare. If that were to occur, lineups sho...

I think it is clear that there are only about 10 closers that have a high chance to keep the job, so it makes sense that owners are grabbing them earlier.
What makes this off-season any different than previous off-seasons? It’s not as if every team in past years had an established closer.

If this is true "The only info many owners have is the pre-ADP rank" then everyone should jump into the earliest NFBC DCs. C'mon. MTM likely had two of the earliest DCs that finished and those leagues had 15 sharp owners. I think all of the early DCs have sharp owners who DON'T rely on just draft r...
