Re: 13 Spots Left: $200 Guillotine Live: Jan. 10 8 pm ET

Okay, so here's the basic concept: Every two weeks the lowest scoring team in the league is ELIMINATED from the competition. That's right, after the first scoring period the lowest scoring team in the league is eliminated and ALL OF THEIR PLAYERS GO BACK INTO THE FREE AGENT POOL. That team was chop...

Re: Players Losing Positions In 2021 After Failing to Play 8 games?

The minimum of games played at a position to qualify for 2021 is seven games, not eight. Even better! I misremembered obviously...thinking a player had to play more than 7 to qualify. Good to see the NFBC knows how to round down from 7.4 when they rounded up from 3.7 to 4 games for in-season positi...

Players Losing Positions In 2021 After Failing to Play 8 games?

In looking over the fielding appearances to date in 2020, we will start to notice some players will lose their current position eligibilty going into next season.

Re: Florida Man ruins 2020 MLB Season (RIP)

I took the list of postponed games right from MLBs website. Hopefully you were on top of the schedule enough to know the Yankees and Orioles got to play despite having their originally scheduled games postponed. It would suck to bench your players because of postponements then learn later those pla...

Preparing for more potentially short seasons

There’s no guarantees about the 2021 season and even if COVID is conquered before 2022 we might be looking at a strike or lockout for that year. Heck, when a new CBA gets agreed upon the “regular season” may forever be shorter than the 162 game marathon we’re used to until now. Hopefully season long...

Agreed. This year more than ever there should be NO games beyond the allotted "regular" season number of 60. It's bad enough that this season is so much more of a complete crap shoot as it is, that games beyond 60 should even be considered especially given how much even one of these games can impac...

I originally wanted to use the title “Game 61 with an Asterisk” but I felt that was too On The Nose.

You’re not understanding it, I get it.
With only 60 games, the chances of needing a tie breaker this year are significantly higher.
Are you still opposed to stats from these games counting toward regular season totals?
