Possible NFBC Rules Changes For 2011

I would love to see the utility slot be used for either a hitter or a pitcher. Would make more sense if a person wants to target pitching stats for the week, etc ....

Injuries and Minors News

Eddie - if the reds can fire the worst manager in baseball, then maybe Gomes can get the AB's... I agree 100% get this guy 450 AB's than 30 bombs will happen in 2010 for him. He can rake!

Thoughts about my Team - Installment 2

Nice Post ... Since you asked, my team sucks! I would like to know if we can start the season over and have a re-draft ASAP! And it comes down too my first 4 picks. Prince Fielder Justin Upton D Jeter (he I am happy with) Jason Bay Others are doing well, B Matusz and D Price, both pitching like star...

Lower Round Bargains

Jonny had < 300 ABS last year and hit 20 bombs. I think .270 might be a stretch, but i defintely think he wil get the 400+ ABS this year. He is by far the best option in leftfield for the reds. He gets the 400+ abs, he will hit the ~ 30 bombs. Quick hands, crushes lefties and overall great guy. Love...

St. Louis 1: March 20th Main Event

Well, I am not very excited about our team. We have a bunch of things we need to work on, mainly more depth. Oh yeah, more power, more speed, more wins, better era, lower whip and better batting average. If our young gun pitchers actually make the team and do what we think they can (k's especially) ...

Come see us at Pujols 5 in St. Louis!

Good time in St Louis ... Fanball staff did a good job and thanks for bringing in more tables - that helped! I really enjoyed the after draft dinner. Rarely do we take the time to get to know our fellow league mates. Really enjoyed it! Going to be a long season, because our team needs some help! Sla...

Looking forward to STL, should be a very strong league. Did everyone who is drafting 1-7 get the memo ? Please let Albert drop to slot 8. Thanks!

Looking For Feedback On NFBC 2009

I might be in the minority (or even the only one interested in this) ... but I would love to have the DH changed to FLEX. That slot could be a hitter (DH only or positon) OR a 10th pitcher ... depending on what the needs are for that week. I know it will never happen, but figured I would throw it ou...

Midseason Awards for Bold Picks

Took Teahen early because we thought he was going to be a rock solid 2nd baseman... of course, Alex Gordon has to go on the DL with a bad hip!! That messed up my big plan. His numbers would have been pretty decent for a 2nd baseman. He still has a shot to qualify once A.Gordon is back...

R.Church and D.Murphy_Available?

Well I guess I helped create the "weakest league" in the NFBC. We dropped Church before the season even started, what the heck were we thinking? I guess the only good that came out of it was we picked up Emilio Bonifacio for him. Not a bad trade, since I feel Sheffield WILL get PT. And who is he goi...

Mid Week Benching...... Joe Borowski

Since the Indians designated RHP Joe Borowski for assignment, are we able to BENCH him for the remainder of the week (as long as the move is done before game time, Friday) ? Or is the rule for DL only ?

New Idea: Bidding $ for Draft Positions

Spy, What not just bid on 1st place for the league.... Spy, if you want to bid $100 for 1st pick or 1000 for 1st pick go for it. We all agree that 1-3 rounds dont win the league so why should we pay any extra. I agree with Chest, this about skills, forecasting, knowledge, alittle luck, but not about...
