Re: Shawn Childs Leads NFBC Teams In LABR

Where's that great AL auction squad? Can it really be that bad with a pair of aces and four hitters with 30+ HR power?

Re: 3 Spots Left In Las Vegas 10 am AL Auction League

The Russians are back after being in exile for the past 12 years. They just missed on Francisco Rodriguez in 2004, which led to a winning season by the Desperados. They done well in the main event so I expect REDEMPTION.

Just asking questions here. Is streaming pitchers bad? If by "streaming" one means picking and choosing which pitcher you play based on matchups. That was just described in a seemingly negative way.

Do your math again! Hernandez is playing in left field. It's a long season and we don't get paid until October so I'd wait a few more months before rubbing one out. :mrgreen:

Re: Joc Pederson

I believe his approach should lead to a top of an order opportunity in 2016. I’ve projected him to bat leadoff while his future points to him being the number three hitter for the Dodgers. This season Pederson is an undervalued asset in the early draft season and I expect him to be a top 40 player ...

Joc Pederson

In his first full season of the majors, OF Joc Pederson smashed 26 HRs in 480 at bats while each homerun traveled 421.7 feet (longest in the majors in 2015 with 18 or more HRs). Unfortunately, Joc only hit .178 after the All Star break with only six HRs and 14 RBI in 180 at bats to remove himself fr...

2016 Baltimore Orioles

I know most of you have been in baseball mode since the 2015 season ended. I just turned the page from football so I have six weeks to catch up with the field. Here's a look at the first team I did the research for:

Re: Backdooring Categories as a strategy

Fanball owned the NFBC in 2010 and Stats hasn't made the effort to add the data to the NFBC history. This may help you with your battle to win the overall. Good Luck.

Re: 2015 NFBC Post-Season Hold 'Em Contest Rules

The lineup size is tricky for the playoff format. You want to have it large enough where the volume players can't buy the championship by drafting just roster from a couple of teams, but you also want to invite some decision making to create some tough decisions.
