Re: My World of Fantasy Baseball

If I were the God of fantasy baseball..... I would disallow trading in all leagues. Trading leads to stupid e-mails, from stupid people, who think that you are stupider than they are. FAAB deadlines, which would be uniform for all leagues would be deadlined at 9pm, est. With results known at 9:05, ...

Re: $$$ Jose Valverde $$$

When I drafted him with my 30th pick, I heard a few chuckles and even the moderator was laughing. I said something to the group along the lines of "ok, I know he sucks, but what the heck!" Here's to hoping maybe I can vulture 5-10 saves to go along with the 7.66 era and 1.8 whip(am I being generous...

You don't delete the list! You click "Edit Add" right beside the player at the top of your list and just replace him not the whole list.

Re: $$$ Jose Valverde $$$

And the cherry on top of this Valverde-is-the-closer sundae is that I now have two useless set-up turds to carry on my bench in order to justify my draft-day brilliance (read: stupidity) in case Valverde has a melt-down.(get it? Sundae metaphor? Sorry. Dumb.) To quote the great Chris Farley, "I'm su...

Re: FAAB - Tony Cingrani

Looks like a spiting image of Madison Bumgarner to me. Not an owner, but looks damn impressive to me. Wish I had bid more, but always leary of young guys without much time beyond AA. Underrated is the depth Cincy now has on their staff. Very impressed (did not see game last week).

Re: Notes to Players

Dear Joe Blanton: Now that you've got the lead, it'd be nice if you could strike somebody out and not hang 90 mph meat over the plate and give up two hits an inning. No idea why you always get labeled a "sleeper" or "underrated" every year when all your fastball does is get consistently crushed. And...

The winning bids were: De La Rosa 123 Quintana 103 Cingrani 101 In another Jarrod Parker was the high dollar guy going for over 400. We all calculate when to roll the dice and...

Re: Doubleheaders 2013

No stats for Boston/KC game. Not a doubleheader, and a regularly scheduled game. Why is this such a workout getting live scoring for ALL games? Don't get it.

I just watched a wonderfully poignant ceremony that preceded today's Red Sox game. It was in front of a packed house and a broadcast to a very large television audience. At the tail end of all the other speakers, they handed the microphone to an eloquent David Ortiz. He thanked the Mayor, Governor,...

Glenn, While I agree spring training means very little and I usually try not to put much credence into it, there is much to be learned, i.e. Tim Lincecum's velocity last year carried into the year, Roy Halladay's struggles and velocity this year, etc. I, for one, did not "guess" that Teheran had tur...

I'd like to solicit some feedback on the stats presentation line within live scoring. I've had communication with the NFBC about the way the stat line is presented.

Re: The Official "Why Did I Draft Josh Hamilton?" Thread

Hamilton has been putrid to start the season but he may have hit rock bottom today. The Rangers intentionally walked Pujols three times to pitch to Hamilton and each time the strategy worked as Hamilton made an out. Hamilton's post-March 1 ADP in the NFBC was 17.63 and with one week of the season n...

Re: Looking For Input On NFBC Live Scoring

1. The stats lines should be for the 5 batting categories plus at bats and the 5 pitching categories plus innings pitched. 2. The stat lines should line up for easy viewing and not just listed in a running stream. So if you have 5 home runs you easily scan down the page and see where they came from...
