Cutline strategy...

Draft a couple injured players so when your regular players suck, you get a 0 instead of minus! lol

I was actually kind of surprised that you have to scroll through that many catchers before you find one with negative points on the season (one finger waves to Devin Mesoraco and Russell Martin).

I actually think this needs to be fixed. I think a player should have to have 1 plate appearance in the week to be in the line-up.

*edit...unless that isn't possible to make a legal line-up

That isn't how it works in any other NFBC league, you can put an injured guy in if you don't like your healthy options. I've done that a couple times already in the NL auction with my 9th pitcher.

It's Friday, and I'm starting 2 guys on the DL. LOL And somehow I'm still in 2nd place.

I'm really interested to see how well this game plays out.
Someone else in my league took all RPs.

Can you win that way?

I don't know about all closers, but I drafted more in the cutlines this year. The change from 6 to 8 points for saves definitely moved RPs up in my rankings. Last year I punted saves in the cutline as SPs had more projected points than all but the top few tiers of closers.
