Cutline Championship Wild Card Bracket Cutline

Shouldn't the Wild Card bracket cutline be after the 22nd place? The top 2 move up and the next 20 advance to round 3.
"The Top 20 teams after removing the Top 2 teams in the Wild Card Tier move on to Round 3 in the Wild Card Tier. All other Wild Card teams are eliminated."

Re: Phillies-Marlins suspended game stats not showing

The stats for the two resumed games on Sunday will be shown after games begin today. All standings will be updated at that time as well. It doesn't look to me that this ever happened. The Team Stats pages are showing the stats from those games, but not the standings. And it definitely isn't giving ...

Re: Live 2021 Chat With Greg, Tom & Darik

If live Auction Championship leagues can't fill and there isn't interest in a $1400 Online Auction, we'll have to re-evaluate the prizes for the Auction Championship. There's no two ways about it. Prizes are based on 12 leagues and if Chicago doesn't fill and New York loses 3 leagues it will be tou...

Re: Innings Minimum

In 2019 the average IP of all 570 Main Event teams was 1326, 30+% above the minimum needed innings. That was the average. Just 9 teams didn't make 1000, and I would guess they didn't make much effort at the end. Only 4% of All Main Event teams were even under 1100 innings pitched. I understand some...

Re: 134 Spots Left In The Debut NFBC Solo Shot Championship

Two years ago, we introduced the NFBC Solo Shot as the industry's first single-entry, season-long national fantasy baseball championship. This contest was designed to allow only one team per owner and to limit the contest to 180 teams. It also included a deeper bench (11 players) thanks to a 34-rou...

Re: Cutline Scoring Issue

Little surprised to not see anything posted on this yet, but i've found 3 cases of pitchers being given more points than they should in the Cutline. Examples: Corbin Burnes today given a 19. He actually had a 9. It would be pretty impressive to pull a 19 on 3.1 IP Edwin Diaz today given a 7. Should...

Yeah I would like a larger $ draft as well for the amount of time I spend on baseball. $150 isnt really worth the trouble.

Pick a date and time and we will give it a shot.
You don't currently have any auctions set on a Monday. How about a $500 one on Monday, July 13 at 8pm ET?

Re: NFBC Main Event Format For 60-Game Season

Greg,
My vote would be to keep the 6-figure carrot. If that means a $1200 entry fee then I'm in. I don't see a huge difference or deterrent between $1000 vs $1200. Either way, I had 2 Main Event teams before, I will very likely be adding at least a 3rd team now.

Gotcha. Makes sense now. Kings at the quoted price must be sold out then. Thanks for your incite.
