Re: Simple explanation of injured veteran FAAB eligibility?

Adrian Houser was on the 15-IL not the 26 man, not the 60-IL but not available so he’s apparently being treated as a prospect not a veteran So I think this is the easiest way to think about it. If said player was drafted, but then cut on first FAAB run, will be available in all future FAAB for that ...

Re: Simple explanation of injured veteran FAAB eligibility?

Everyone in the player pool is available on the first FAAB run...March 26th. If your draft is done by then, you can FAAB anyone. No games have been played yet. Sorry Darik I asked about the first _in-season_ FAAB run. So your answer doesn’t address my question. Undrafted, injured, veteran player. L...

Simple explanation of injured veteran FAAB eligibility?

Please forgive my stupidity but I’ve never seen a simple explanation of the rule…so please reply as if you’re talking to a non-fantasy player My example: Walker Buehler is a veteran player who will not have played a game by the time of the first in-season FAAB run. Will he be available to stash or m...

Gladiator question regarding Ohtani

I ASSumed the rules are pretty clear and if you draft Ohtani as a hitter he’s locked in as a hitter. But he’s ranked so highly in ADP it makes me wonder if, by the last month of the season, when you might need his pitching stats more than hitting… can you change his position if you’ve lost another p...

Re: NFBC Player IDs in CSV downloads

+1

Having Player IDs would also allow you (if you choose) to compare stats for players while hiding their name and team. Great if you're prone to name or team bias.

Awesome news. If the probable pitchers could align with what Rotowire has on their chart, that'd be awesome too.
Yeah, I keep seeing HUNTER Harvey as a probable starter in my DC each week. I’m sure it’s supposed to be the other Baltimore Harvey.

While we're at it can we have an icon showing players in the minors like we have for players on the IL?
Or at least an icon showing “Not on Active Roster” so it catches Minors players AND players on Administrative, Bereavement, Paternity Leave, etc?

Re: 2022 Rule Changes? Saves?

The motto, "When the going gets tough, the tough get going" has apparently, in this generation, morphed into "when the going gets tough, the not-so-tough-minded seek to change the rules to make things easier.” While I will have to have JP crunch the numbers on it to be sure, I doubt the overall num...

June 26 suspended game completed June 27 not showing final 6 innings

Stats for inning played today aren’t showing up yet.

This wreaks havoc with the Guillotine league period scoring which ends tonight.

Will the numbers be reconciled overnight before the last place team in each league gets chopped?

Re: 227 Players on the IL- Perhaps a tweak is due

Every time things get hard, people suggest rule changes.
Remember when there were advocates for Quality Starts instead of Wins?
Where would we be now with QS as a category?

When things get hard we need to improvise, overcome and adapt. Rule changes to a great fantasy game aren’t the answer.

FAAB for all NFBC Guillotine leagues was re-run last night and should be good to go now. Yes, originally it did not take into effect bids on the "cut" 15th place teams, but those players were included in the re-run and we should be good to go. Thanks all. Looks good now but on the My Teams page Gui...

Just checked my results. Looks like many players were kept on their 15th place teams.
My top bids failed with the reason “Player already on Team Hughes”

Team Hughes was chopped for finishing 15th in my league and his players were available as Free Agents.

Oops!
