Re: MLB Season Postponed?

I think that it is obvious that there will be some sort of delay to the start of the MLB season, but there WILL be a season. It sucks that it may be abbreviated, but this may come with the territory no matter what in other extenuating circumstances that could come up. We all know that going in whet...

Re: MLB Season Postponed?

Maybe because I have 5 stents in my heart. Perhaps it's having cancer. Could be at 72, I don't know how many fantasy baseball seasons I have left. I believe in free will. For ballplayers as well as fans. I agree wholeheartedly with Ultrarunner. MLB is NOT the nba or mls, where each sport spent a lo...

Re: MLB Season Postponed?

**At least two NBA teams have advised players, coaches and team personnel who might have been exposed to an opponent who later tested positive for coronavirus to self-isolate themselves as they await test results. This is just the beginning. Not that far fetched to believe sooner or later MLB teams...

Re: MLB Season Postponed?

Here's how I see it: -The money I paid already was still going to be locked up until October anyways. -The season probably won't start on time but if it does and we didn't draft then it totally sucks. -If the season is delayed by 2 months, how many players does it really affect? 5-10 players at most...

Re: Corona virus - NO BULLSHIT Thread

I cancelled my travel plans to NYC this morning. I'm 99.99% sure what I have is just a bad cold but I had fever last night and even if I feel better by Friday, I don't want to deal with airports like this. Also whatever it is, I'll still be contagious on Friday and I don't think anyone wants to risk...

I'd always been against the other variants of the pitcher swap because it gave an advantage to those who could check back on Wednesday and Thursday to make changes.

Re: Rules for 2020

So the NFBC can arbitrarily come up with new contests which buck the MLB regular season schedule (i.e. A mid-season contest that doesn't count the entire month of September) which is perfectly fine, but God forbid you eliminate games beyond 162 that don't allow for everyone to have equal, competiti...

2019 Leagues

Last year for the whole season we had access to https://nfbc2018.shgn.com/ which had all the data of the 2018 season. It was incredibly useful for all FAAB Data. Any chance you can get this back up for 2018 and 2019? Looking to do some research and there's nothing available.

Re: Open Chat With Greg, Tom & Darik

For the Sunday Main in New York, will the 1st league that was filled stay as is or will you mix both leagues? I was hoping the first league would stay separate since it's mostly the same people as last year and it was a blast. We understand, but if we get 30 teams live there it's only fair to mix t...

Re: 2019 Leagues

When the season ended we had access to everything for both 2018 and 2019, now it's all gone. i don't even think I can find the Main Event ADP for 2019, the ADP for all 2019 leagues is pretty useless.
