NFBC Message Boards

Since the Orioles-Nats suspended game resumes today, and since today is a lineup setting day, might be worthwhile for folks to be reminded of the NFBC rules for suspended games? Thanks!

Gekko $$ALERTS$$ are back. It's like the swallows returning to Capistrano. Must almost be spring...

Greg, is there a reason why for the iOS version of the Live Scoring page, it still does not show ABs or IPs? Since updates on all other stats are available in real time, it would seem like this wouldn't be too hard to implement?

Thanks!

Since tax day is coming up quick (Tuesday April 17 this year), I am pinging this dialogue from January to the top of the queue.

One question that is not resolved by this thread: is there a way one can check which of the two 1099's that were sent is the second ("correct") one?

Thanks!

Greg, it seems I was the only one who was able to take Liss down in either of his two leagues last season, so I guess I have to come back again this year.

Sign me up!

Greg, sign me up if there are slots available. Thanks!

Okay, thought I had this, but the fact you can change hitters on this Friday leads to this question: to have SEA or OAK hitters qualify for last weeks games, do you only have to have them in your lineup on Thursday and then could swap them out on Friday if you wish, or do you have to have them in al...

Greg, sign me up for this slow draft, please. Thanks!

Sweet site, Dave. I agree, you've got something going there with the lineup and rotation projections. Keep it up!

I only see all my old teams listed on My Teams page, not the 2011 $375 Slow. Am I doing something wrong?

Michael Crescenzi, Cary, NC

Well, if Jupinka is in, I'm in as well. Greg, sign me up for the $375 slow, please. Thanks!

Greg, is the top 3 payout in the $375 slow draft = freebies into the 2012 NFBC, similar to the satellite league?

Any luck with this yet? I know you guys think you've been getting undeserved criticism on the boards, but this is the type of thing that folks aren't understanding how we can be this close to Opening Day and key components aren't functional.

Is there a way yet to look ahead past this Sunday 4/4 to see matchups and set lineups? Just being able to do this for next week would be nice, but maybe I'm just missing how to do this... Thanks!

Are we getting premium Mock Draft Central accounts this year? I know this has been brought up before, but never heard if any resolution occurred. Thanks!

Yo, couldn't you find a site where they put a quality team on the field--was Citizens Bank Park not available? Will physicians knowledgable with the Heimlich maneuver be on site in case drafters start choking (it's contagious, you know...)? Will leagues that draft from there be in the "Losers bracke...

So here's a suggestion for some posting: nominate the one team from your Main Event League (not your own) that, based on the draft, you think has the best chance of doing some damage overall. I'll start with Team Bono from NY4: Soto, Y. Molina, Pujols, Brian Roberts, Lowell, Theriot, Manny, Dunn, Ib...

I'm pretty happy with my team from the 7 spot, and very happy with my pitching staff. Captain Lou could be dangerous if some of his sleeper pitchers--Pedro, Carpenter, Kelvim Escobar--come through, as he assembled a nice mix of hitters. Prospectors came away with a nice staff: Brandon Webb, Gallardo...

Diveglio, Bono, Martino, DiMaura, Ciepela, Crescenzi, Piazza--they're going to have to rename this the Soprano's League... If my team starts to go south at some point, I'll rename it The Big Pussies as a motivational tactic. See you all in NYC.

Greg, can you remind us of what our login and password for MDC is, please? Thanks!

Sign me up! Would love to get some early practice in.

I'm not a big poster on the boards, but felt compelled to comment on this one. To be successful with this type of strategy requires significant knowledge of where the "value" lies as the draft is progressing--that is, identifying someone still there in the 10th who's a good bet to give you 7th round...

All right, I'll jump in for the $125 WTA on Tuesday night. Come on the rest of you MB lurkers, if you're going to buy the satellite draft results, you might as well join a cheap sat while you're at it--let's fill 'er up!
