Cleaver, go to your league home page and right above your leagues name is the 'Roster' drop down box. Click on it and your first choice in the drop down will be 'Set Lineup'. If your team's not there, E-mail Gregg.

Might be a little too early - takes STATS 2-3 days sometimes to get everything entered.

Cleaver, one more thing.

Since you might not be able to officially enter your lineup to cover this week, make sure you post it either here or at your league site...just in case someone might doubt you want to play your Boston-Oakland dudes lol

E-mail Greg your lineup BEFORE the first game.

Some posts were written saying that in some satellite leagues you will be able to set lineups after the actual games were played.

We're quick, but not this quick. The drafts last night finished around 11 p.m. EST and MockDraftCentral.com then e-mails us the results in the morning and we send to STATS. It will take STATS a few hours to load the team pages and then you'll have access to your rosters. We've already said that we'll make concessions for the first two games for the folks who drafted this week. We're talking with STATS now to figure out how we'll work these, but have no fear we'll get this resolved so all have the same access to their teams for these two games.

I dunno, guys....

It appears that I will be able to bench Jon Lester if he gets shellacked, plus the teams in my League who own Street and Big Papi (if he goes 0-fer-4 again) will be able to sit them.

Won't be a good situation if the guy who benches Street wins the League by half a Roto point while at the same time beating out the 2nd place team in ERA by something like 0.0002!! Seems like the only way to handle this may be to NOT count "week zero" for all of the Leagues for which rosters weren't entered on time??

Hey Lyle, I see you've posted this in several places now and e-mailed Tom and myself about this. You obviously signed up for this draft this week knowing how we were going to handle these two games (out of 2,430 this year). Thanks for your input, but we'll work with STATS on these two games for all 19 satellite leagues that drafted during the Japan Series.

Lyle being an immense pain in the ass? Go figure.

hahaha, Emmitt!! Thinking I should change my Roto-name from "AX"...maybe "anal fissure" would work??

Feedback anyone??

Now....

When do they un-lock the rosters as promised, so I can go and bench J. Lester??
