Kevin Posted March 25, 2014 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 Update: it seems the Australian games were played already on March 22, and Yahoo! is going to make week 1 from that date until April 6th. That being the case, we have already missed week one and have until then to get our league in order, Can Am , so no need to pull the trigger soon on the draft date , unless you want to.

Lucky Posted March 25, 2014 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 The Dodgers played the D-backs this past weekend in Australia. Of course the Dodgers have their la-di-da new TV Network, so they were blacked out for us. Opening day is the 31st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayzor Posted March 25, 2014 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 Rayzor's Guzzlers are in. Hopefully someone else will join in time for draft... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanAm Posted March 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 We now have 8 teams in the head to head league with the additions of Kev, Sammy and Rayzor. We have 5 teams for the points league. I sent a message to Carl but have not heard back about his intentions. I think RonJon is the only one left to register. I'll hold off on the draft until Friday since, as Kevin pointed out, there really isn't a big rush. I'll try to get in touch with Carl again.

RonJonSurfer Posted March 25, 2014 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 I will register tonight. If you have enough for the head to head league I will just sign on for the points league. If you get another body for the head to head I'll join there too. No big deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Posted March 25, 2014 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 I'm in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanAm Posted March 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 I just heard from Carl, and I think he's interested in participating. If he signs up for the head-to-head league, than Ron can join and we'll have 10 teams which should make for an interesting competition. If Carl signs up, we'll have everyone on board who expressed an interest in playing, so I'll activate the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanAm Posted March 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 It looks like everyone is in. We have 10 teams for the head-to-head league and 8 for the points league. If there are no objections, I'll activate the draft tomorrow or Thursday. Good luck everyone!!! And Sammy, your team names are a hoot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 (edited) If it's all the same to you,CanAm, and everyone else, can we wait until Sunday evening (March 30th ), or at least the weekend? I really have been swamped and need a little time to look at the list as well as just to remember who is still playing now and for what teams, along with our scoring system ! Another year older and a bit slower, after all … Edited March 27, 2014 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanAm Posted March 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 Sorry Kev, but the autodraft has already taken place. I just checked this morning and the rosters have been selected. I like my points team but hate, hate, hate my head-to'head team. I really don't like the autodraft system. I participated in some mock live drafts yesterday and each one took less than one hour even if there were 12 people participating. It might be something to consider next year. Under the autodraft system you can have players who aren't even eligible to play selected to your team or have a pitching staff comprised primarily of relievers instead of starting pitchers.

Kevin Posted March 29, 2014 Report Share Posted March 29, 2014 No problem, CanAm. I'll make do. I rarely get many of the people I chose anyway. Our points league will likely start counting on Sunday then,but the other won't start until Mon. April 7th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockyRaccoon Posted March 30, 2014 Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 Hey Can, just a suggestion, but right now, there is a maximum number of moves each team can make per week. We haven't done that in the past, we can do it if that's what everyone wants, but that's the default for Yahoo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockyRaccoon Posted March 30, 2014 Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 Also, there are waivers, which we haven't done in the past (but can, if that's what everyone wants). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Posted March 31, 2014 Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 (edited) We appear to be counting in both leagues as of today. Not sure if week 1 will count for us or not then. I originally thought not, but can someone confirm ? Also, Can Am, I think we have only one DL position per team-was this your original plan? Please confirm if I'm right about that. If so, I really think we need 2 at least (or 3). Players go down like flies in MLB, sometimes a number of times over the season or for lengthy stretches. Would hate to have to drop good guys soon because there is no space for them. Edited March 31, 2014 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Posted September 8, 2014 Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 (edited) Playoffs start this week in head to head, folks, so get your teams in order if you haven't been watching them them carefully lately. The top 6 teams play for the championship, and since the standings were rather tight this season, it's anyone's to take/lose with a couple good/bad weeks. Well worth a look considering the length of the season. The last 4 teams get a bye this week , but will get a consolation playoff starting next week. May as well take a minute to see if you can keep or improve your standing overall as well. The points league has no playoff and just continues to calculate points until the last regular season game. Good luck all! Edited September 8, 2014 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanAm Posted September 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2014 Congrats to Kevin, for sweeping the baseball championships this year. Another year of good competition in the head to head league. Bring on the post season! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil Posted September 30, 2014 Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 (edited) Oh... did Kevin win. I didn't even notice. . Congrats. Edited September 30, 2014 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin1429030929 Posted October 1, 2014 Report Share Posted October 1, 2014 (edited) Thanks guys! My points team was surprisingly turbo charged this season (sorry) but our head to head league and playoffs were very exciting. Congrats to Ian and Phil for second and third in head to head, and Sammy as the consolation winner. Congrats also to Ian and Carl for second and third in the points league. One more day and Phil may have sneaked into third there as well! Edited October 1, 2014 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
