Re: I can't explain this math (cutline)

I did notice this morning if I go to Scores -> Live Scoring - Stat Line -> League Standings, these standing show different results than if I just go to Standings -> League. I believe the email blast that goes out uses the later, this perhaps is was messed me up earlier. I do know that I'm already pr...

Re: I can't explain this math (cutline)

Well, I'm having a hard time figuring this out. On Tuesday morning (5/2) I received an email saying I had 2650pts. At 8:31pm, I had 84pts for the day, yet my total was showing as 2722 instead of 2734. All the stats "appeared" to be updated. At 8:36pm, I had 101pts, the total showed me as having 2737...

Re: RIP Yordano Ventura

Seriously, is this so hard to do? Can IT not make any more changes with the move to Sports HUB? Ventura is now on our main queue page, do you want someone to time out and draft a deceased person? This should take two seconds to do and should have been done as soon as the news was out, yet has been i...

Re: New Draft Spot Proposal!

That's a good suggestion, but it would not really cure my sucking. Mostly, I was trying to be light-hearted about my fate. As with most people on here, if I go full-on whine mode, you'll know it! Should change your name to Tree Suckers. :) I like KJ's suggestion of setting the KDS to reverse of wha...

Re: Wish List Of Improvements For NFBC 2018

How about having leagues where the winner of the bid pays a dollar more than the next highest price bid on a free agent. Example: Two team owners bid on Nomar Mazara. Owner A bids $238 and owner B bids $799. Owner B wins the free agent bid and ends up paying $239. That's Vickery FAAB. I like it too...

Doesn't help those who are trying to set bids now and don't have time tomorrow (like me). Yeah, pretty bogus, I work a late...

I have Kimbrel to go along with Rondon in one league...Red Sox get 2 in the 9th to go up 4...another non-save for one of my closers! :roll:

EDIT: Only the 8th, still have a chance for the White Sox to get a run. :)

Re: Catchers

Not very well that is why I asked the question. Other than Molina I'm getting nothing. All I was asking was if any one else gave up on catchers are they having any success. I'll answer my own question save the space I should draft better. I don't think catchers as a whole are doing much, but I don'...

An announcement coming in the next couple days...damn! Apparently MLB has been able to unlock/unmask the secret code to bust these Turinabol users. Could be quite a few in the coming days/weeks.

David Price getting shelled again, now has a 6+ ERA. This guy is one of the biggest busts of the year. Apparently he originally wanted to sign with the Cubs, but needed the extra few million that the Red Sox offered. $200 mil is not enough apparently.

Re: What's The Early Feedback On The NFBC Cutline?

I'm not really getting the complaints about the rosters being too big...with this being best ball format, the more players the merrier!

And definitely need to add 2 or 3 pts for saves, not only would this make more RP drafted, it would leave more SP available to be drafted or picked up via FA.
