Congrats to Alan and Brad and the other placers. And a special thanks to Greg for getting these leagues set up online so that we could keep them alive. Hopefully most owners are interested in returning for 2024 and we can figure out draft dates that work for everyone.

Re: 6 Spots Left: NFBC $1500 AL-Only Online Auction League
Thanks again Greg for making these available and giving us the chance to fill them. And thanks to everyone who has signed up so far. Just a little work left to go to fill AL. Can’t wait for the draft days.

Re: 2023 AL and NL $1,500 Auctions
Awesome, Seth. We're getting close in NL Only. My signups show that Harvey is also in so that would get us to 8/12. Need a little push with AL Only however. Last weekend I reached out to as many industry LABR and Tout participants from the Only leagues, but unfortunately so few of them have their DM...

Greg … THANK YOU. Thank you for giving these leagues a chance. I’d love to think that we could fill both an NL and AL Only league by making them available online. It now would make them available to potential new players that haven’t been able to travel to Vegas as well as the many players that have...

Re: 2023 AL and NL $1,500 Auctions
I was probably more bummed that anyone when the word first came out that the Only auctions would no longer be happening. These were what first attracted me to the NFBC a number of years ago and was my primary purpose in making the Vegas trip each year. I had already reached out to Greg and we traded...

Re: AL & NL Only League Auctions - Vegas Friday
Unless there’s a late miracle it doesn’t look like AL only is going to fill. But we are only 1 owner away from filling the NL only auction. Who wants the last spot?! Friday morning 10:00 draft time. Help us make at least one of these great auctions happen.

Re: A Discussion On The Pause Time For Draft Champions Leagues
Somewhat in line with Mark and Phil, my suggestion would be to pause from 12:00 midnight to 9:00 a.m. (ET). At the very least have the pause from 1:00 a.m to 9:00 a.m (ET). This helps both the east coast drafters at bed time and west coast drafters in the morning. I don't think you would lose a sign...

Re: AL & NL Only League Auctions - Vegas Friday
NL Only Friday morning at 10:00 and is at 9/12 full. AL Only is Friday afternoon at 4:00 and is at 8/12. We’re almost there so help us close these out. This is my favorite format and both leagues have a great group of participants. Definitely has always had that home league feel for me.

Re: NL and AL Only Auction Leagues - Las Vegas
If a player is traded to a different league, he would be added to the FAAB pool. This leads to a big part of FAAB strategy in only leagues. Do you spend early in the season for the big callups or wait until the trade deadline for the big trades changing leagues?

I’m signed up for both and ready to go. Love the momentum. Let’s keep it going!
Shawn - I love your idea for the only leagues and a combined champion. But I don’t see how we could pull it off this year with how the signups have already come in. Would love to have you in NL though.

NL and AL Only Auction Leagues - Las Vegas
With fewer people able to travel to Vegas this year, the NL and AL only auction leagues have been slow to fill. Currently we are sitting at 6/12 in the NL and 4/12 in the AL. These are scheduled be held B2B on Friday, March 26 with the NL auction at 10 and the AL auction at 4. I'm putting out an app...

If you never have been to an NFBC live event, you are missing the “Thrill” of a lifetime. It’s not too late to come to Vegas where you’ll get the added bonus of the first weekend of March Madness. And the best part (at least for some of us Midwesterners) is the extended forecast for Wednesday, March...

I got an email saying this would be the case. But I also see that we lost 2 more entries this morning and are now down to 5/15 filled. I think those 2 shifted to the $400 DC which just filled a league this morning. Is it realistic that we will get 10 more owners and fill this $1K DC? This is my only...

Mark ... Congratulations on the HOF recognition. Your record speaks for itself. I’ve always enjoyed competing in leagues with you, especially the auctions. You’re always willing to engage in conversation and talk baseball. BTW - AL only in Vegas currently has 1 spot left. What do you say?!

Crap. Just learned this now as I wasn't on the message board yesterday. I went to make a roster swap and saw that rosters were already locked. While Friday off days are something new, I'm still not sure why it wouldn't and couldn't be treated similar to Monday/Tuesday roster lock. Even an email noti...

Kapler must have been absent for the analytics class on sample size as he used a 5 at bat sample in making the decision to pull Nola. Also, if that was such a key spot in the game to put in a lefty to face Freeman, why did he not even use his top lefty in the bullpen (Morgan). Other curious thing fr...
