We need first names instead of initials. I like the new updates and I'm finally using the new system. With 5 minutes to the deadline I clicked on OLD system and noticed I was dropping Jim Johnson instead of Josh Johnson. (sure they both suck) We have too many common names in this sport. Let's get th...

Is there any reason we have any delay? I can't imagine the bids are all reviewed with the sheer amount of FAAB leagues. I'm enjoying the new 10PM EST deadline but it would be great to have the bids done by 10:05PM and start working on lineups. I know this has been brought up before. Can this be done...

Would be a great addition. I know this has been brought up in the past.

Looks good Jeff. (besides Pineida-Bad team he's on) I'm sure you'll patch together some closers thru FAAB or your current specs. I was all excited about the #1 pick as well but hated it after the draft. My turn targets were gone in 2/3 and 4/5 and its rough waiting 30 picks. I enjoyed all my other d...

Keep it coming Gekko. Love the write-ups..

I'm riding the Medlen, I mean Jordan train, as well.

This just in......Justin Turner will bat second and start at 2B.

Dee Gordon...........$1 crickets.....................

I remember reading GEKKOS comments last year and I certainly remember the Kazmir one and all the shit he got for it from everyone, so all I can say was well done for that one What you didn't see was Gekko getting Kazmir in the auction and giggling when his name was called for another owner to take....

I wish these leagues were in NYC. It's a shame the auctions aren't more popular.

I'm in. Thanks for setting this up.

If you just book the Hilton directly thru Priceline its 179/night which is still $90 bucks less than the regular price I got through the hotel. The risk of name your price is you get a different hotel in the same area. Either way sounds like some good deals.

Thanks Alan for sharing

C'mon guys. You can't tell me after the ME on Saturday you're not going to be hungry for more. You can make this draft happen: SUPER DRAFT Saturday March 22nd 7PM EST/4PM EST You can draft from anywhere: *LIVE in Vegas *In New York on a conference call w/ Vegas with several drafters including myself...

Here you go:

Let's get this filled up. I know all of you addicts are going to be thirsty to draft on Saturday after the main event. If you're in NYC you can draft via phone with the guys in Vegas. I did this last year and it was seamless. I didn't enter my picks but could view the realtime draft board. 10 Spots ...

By the way, anyone who thinks it's "harder" or a more difficult environment to draft online than live has never drafted live. Yet most of the "really good players" still try to draft live when possible. Imagine that. I disagree with this Glenn - there are plusses and minuses for either live or onli...

Good stuff Greg. Glad to hear its a priority. Thanks

Jason

Greg, Can you update us on any of the FAAB enhancements. As great as live scoring, lineup setting, or the draft room may be I can't think of anything more important that continuing to improve the FAAB system. It's already the best in the business but there is room to always improve. I cut back from ...

Hi Glenn - I'll still be drafting in NYC Saturday night but for the Super. (JOIN GUYS SPOTS STILL OPEN)
I'm also only doing 15 team leagues going forward. With multiple entries I like to keep the free agent pools consistent. Best of luck and hopefully we meet up in another league.

This may be unpopular here but why announce right now? After that Mo "look at me" retirement tour I thought he may have announced retirement after the season. Does he really need gifts and a ceremony for every ballpark he visits. The fact that he had to announce this on social media "facebook" screa...

1)Will we have a more visually appealing live scoring (i.e. less cluttered and no irrelevant stats) and in a column format like the old live scoring? I still think the layout on the older live scoring version is superior to the current one and would like to see that format used with the increased s...

Various ways this pitching rule change may work #1 - Starting a DL/minor league pitcher MON-THUR and swapping them out for a double starter on FRI who has a bad MON-THUR matchup and a favorable FRI-SUN matchup. (Mon Chacin at Coors - Sat Chacin at SD) #2 - Pulling out a closer/RP who hasn't pitched ...

1. I like the idea of adding another 5 rounds to DC leagues 2. I like the idea of minor leaguers staying in FAAB pool even if demoted after their initial callup 3. I like the idea of removing pitcher from lineup if they haven't pitched as of friday morning 4. in today's afternoon game, if i had pla...

Edwin Encarnacion - Show me once (2012) Show me twice (2013). This guy is a beast. 40/100 with above league batting avg. players are tough to find. He plays half his games in a great power park for Righties. A healthy Reyes/Bautista (big if) should lead to career highs in runs and rbis. 2014 - .280 ...
