Re: 2022 Rule Changes? Saves?

Good discussion! FWIW - the main event totals so far are not pointing to a drop in the Save totals. We are at the 45.8 percent mark (2226 of 4860 games played) and the 80th percentile mark is at 35 which is on pace for a 76 total. 76 would actually be higher than the 2019 and 2020 (pro-rated) totals...

Re: Line-Ups and settings

How are pitcher and hitters set up for the week? I assume Pitchers lock Thursday with team's first game. What are hitter settings? Correct, pitchers will lock this week with their team's first game. Hitters lock with their team's first game on Thursday and you can still switch out hitters on Friday...

Re: Win $30,000 In The 2021 NFBC Auction Championship

One suggestion is to keep all the $ in the league. Super auction could pay what a Super Draft does. I'm sure a regular auction could have some nice prize points. Seems like a way to protect both sides and there is still plenty of overalls to chase in other contests.

Re: FSGA Draft Tonight At 6 ET On SiriusXM Fantasy Radio

FSGA claims to be the voice for more than 60 million fantasy players. How do they arrive at doing a 14 team expert draft? They can't find a 15th? Where are 14 team leagues a thing? Maybe they are. Who knows. Seems like it would be more relevant to be a 15 team league. Thanks for sharing the link!

Re: Looking For Feedback On 2021 Cutline Championship

I think the two FAAB periods are fine. It's great that you do them on a different day. I don't like capping the quantity of free agent pickups. What is out of whack is amount of $ going back to league. Entry fee is 150 with 10 teams per league. You pay one spot at 250. That is 17 percent going back ...

Re: A Note For IT

Right on Dan! Couldn't agree more. Watchlist, waterfall function, roster drop down, abundance of search options, pending FAAB,.....all excellent tools and this year they were combined with zero wait! NFBC easily the best FAAB software. Well done!

Interesting stats Dan. Amazing progression on the strikeouts. I love the triple. I remember watching Robin Yount hit an amazing about of triples. Like you said it is a hustle play. Not may players bust it out of the box anymore. Willie Wilson is another that has to be pretty high on the list for tri...
