Sorry if this has been announced elsewhere, but I didn't see an answer anywhere:

What day and time will players who don't play on Friday lock in/out of our lineups?

Thanks.

Well, that’s unfortunate. Seems like a pretty fundamental feature that should definitely have been correct to start the season.

I should be able to move hitters who didn’t have a game yesterday in/out of lineup up until game time today, right?

Andy - please put me down for the last online auction.

Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback! I was surprised to get Hoskins at $19 since that was at the beginning when everyone was flush. Guess folks are worried about his late fade? You're right about Gattis. I don't think he will be anything like an everyday DH, but should hopefully at least get as many PAs as a st...

For whatever it's worth, I quite like your team, Spinning Seams. No holes at all on offense and plenty of solid IP to go along with some upside. To end up with that kind of depth after paying up for Trout and Altuve is very impressive.

So, here's what I ended up with: C - Ramos 10 C - Gattis 8 1B - Bell 5 2B - Ramirez 33 3B - Turner 18 SS - Seager 22 CI - Alonso 2 MI - Russell 2 OF - Pollock 21 OF - Hoskins 19 OF - Margot 12 OF - A Garcia 2 OF - Brantley 3 UT - Cruz 20 SP - Godley 15 SP - S. Gray 12 SP - C. Anderson 10 SP - Richar...

I'll give this another shot; try to improve upon my 5th place finish (while again beating Greg & Tom )

You can put me down for the first one. Prefer DC, but willing to do FAAB if that’s how it turns out.

Thanks Andy!

I would also do a $125 or $250 DC auction as soon as someone is able and willing to put one together.

You can put me down for an early DC, too.

All of the industry game operators seem to think players want a bigger grand prize and then a steep drop-off. Almost all of the players I talk to prefer a flatter (fairer) pay structure. Count me as another who prefers a flatter structure. I had a team in the first season, was put off by the onerou...

Is League Safe also part of the SportsHub family? If so, will our player account here and our league safe account be one in the same such that I can use money already in my League Safe account to pay for NFBC teams?

I remember seeing that NFBC will be using the LeagueSafe ewallet system in the future. Does that mean that the same LeagueSafe account will be applicable to NFBC, or just that the same underlying system will be used (but a different/new account for NFBC)? That is, will I use funds in my existing Lea...

The overnight pause is obviously a good idea. As for the draft clock, the best option seems to be making both 4 and 8 hour drafts available and let folks decide what works for them. Personally, I don't mind a slower draft - they give me plenty of time to do research which will help me the rest of th...

Thanks. I'll contact Tom. It was one of the earliest DCs, apparently before Thames was added.

Is it known yet when placeholders will be replaced by the players for whom the place they are currently holding is being held? :D I thought I'd set preliminary lineups as a way to kill a few of the many minutes we have to wait until games begin. But I've got at least one Thames placeholder, so no po...

I really like your team, Jimpats - solid throughout, as one would expect with that strategy. For what it's worth, the projections that I ran the rosters through also really like your team. Weakest point is saves but that obviously changes if Bush gets the job, and is perhaps easiest thing to remedy ...

stevemer- for what it is worth that looks like the best team from this draft. some teams bagged sb's or lacked power or didn't have any closers- but this team looks very balanced. peralta looks like a great pick to me for $3- but what do i know. and you have all month to look for gomes replacement ...

Had a lot of fun with this one. Tried to avoid some mistakes I'd made in previous auctions and feel like I did achieve that, though I may have overcompensated in a couple of cases. Also made a couple silly mistakes at the end (resulting in Tyler Naquin and David Peralta). Still, looking forward to d...

I'm signed up for a $125 satellite draft for 3/3, but not sure it will fill and auctions are better anyway . So if there's going to be a $125 auction that night and admin is willing to switch me over, I would play.

I'll play.

I wouldn't be willing to start any later than 7, as even then I'll be struggling to stay awake for the whole thing. But if there are more people interested in a later start, I'll just try to join a 7:00 auction later on (or even a weekend afternoon if there's interest in one of those at any point).

I could do the 30th
