NFBC and STATS Fixes

I don't think you can see this. With respect to standings, I'd like to be able to see what the standings were at the end of a period. So for example, at the end of period 20, I'd like to see what the standings in the league were after period five (not just for period five). This way I could measure ...

Remember New Pitchers Rule For Last 2 Weeks Of NFBC Season

I am in first place in my league but falling fast. The 14th place team had about 15 starts this week and caught me in wins. Next will be Ks. I realize all teams have the right to play it to the end but this is getting ridiculous. I have no doubt this team and others will also switch their entire pit...

Randall Delgado

Delgado came up to the majors this week and pitched and then was sent down to the minors. He is not in the free agent pool right now because he is in the minors and was never drafted in my league. This is probably unusual but here's my question. I assume he entered the free agent pool at some time t...

stat changes

I went to bed when all games ended. Stats are all different this morning. In one league, I lost 2 saves, one SB and one point in batting average. In another league, I lost five overall points overnight.

Pitchers coming off DL, Peavy and Beachy

This has probably been addressed countless times before, but maybe someone can clarify for me. Peavy and Beachy are both listed on the DL as of Tuesday afternoon. They are scheduled to pitch on Wednesday. Many teams have them in their lineups this week expecting them to pitch. I've noticed that in a...

Carpenter--earned runs today

Live scoring shows that Carpenter gave up 5 earned runs today. Three websites I checked show that he gave up only 2 earned runs and three unearned. Is live scoring sometimes wrong and then it gets fixed later?

Mike Minor

Under the proposed rule change (one game in majors), then someone like Jordan Zimmerman who was on the DL earlier but did not play a game in the majors this year would not be eligible for free agency. Is that correct?

How many catchers does it take to fill a lineup?

Admittedly I am in four leagues but I can't keep two healthy catchers in my lineup. So far I've lost Montero (knee), Shoppach (knee), Mathis (wrist), Baker (forearm), Moore (heel), Bard(calf), Hanigan (thumb), and Zaun (old age.) I had Mathis and Bard for one game. I was thinking on bidding for Lucr...

Dual Eligibility

Ty Wigginton now has 2B eligibility. Dual eligibility players really help when you set your lineup. Also like that I can move Teahan from infield to outfield and back. Just curious, who is the best dual eligible player?

The results of the draft have not been posted for my super league. But I can't find his name on the list of players ever dropped. Wouldn't he ha...

Eric Young picked up in FAAB????????

It sounds like Serenity Now's argument is justified. But there are a lot of problems with the way the leagues are being run. The leagues are full of hawks who notice everything. How many people noticed the Young issue before the free agents were run (who realized there was an issue)and did not say a...

Moving locked player to different position

I have aaron hill at 2B. He was just put on the DL so I want to get him out of the lineup. To do that I need to put scott sizemore at 2B who is my middle infielder. If I move sizemore to 2B, I can put in another middle infielder from my bench. The only player locked right now is sizemore. Shouldn't ...

save changes

The biggest change I see in the free agent process this year is that you have to save changes. How many of us change bids at the last second. If you don't hit "save", they won't be there.

I still will be participating the second week in a number of leagues. I have participated in the NFBC since the beginning.

Has anyone commented on the percent owned being wrong? In the main I have Zobrist owned in 0% leagues and active in 37.1%. In the online, I have Scutaro 2% owned and active in 87.8%. Many other players have the same issue.



Also, when is the mosted added dropped feature being activated?

Wasn't David Robertson brought up to take Nady's spot on the roster and he pitched two innings yesterday. How could Nady not been on the DL. This makes no sense.
