Here's a few teams I have drafted so far. I like all of them for different reasons.


Team #1

Love the pitching on this one. plus Acuna.




-------------------

Team #2

Also good pitching here. well balanced team overall.



-------------------

Team #3

Offense is good here.



-------------------

Team #4

This one needs a little work, maybe a good sp3 and a new catcher (but I am gonna wait til further in spring to see how the Varsho situation pans out, Carson Kelly is on the wire).

Has anyone who was in the Goon Keeper League last year not checked in on the league thread?

Looks like we have had 10 of 12 check in, still waiting on 2 more.

Looks like we have one team opening up. it's a 12 team, h2h, 7x7 league with OBP, SLG, OBPA, and K/BB added.

you get 4 keepers, here's the roster:

Is it just four keepers, kept regardless of round? I’m still down, Only further question is about the scoring - correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t OBPA the same thing as WHIP, just expressed differently?

They are pretty similar. I advocated for changing OBA to QS in the past.

I'm the commish of the League. I'll have the keepers set as the last 4 picks, so no matter who you keep it won't affect any draft status.

And yes I'm thinking of changing OBPA. I only had that one in there because I needed to even it out from the offensive categories and most of the other pitching categories are bullshit.

But yeah, if you want the team it's yours. We just need find one more replacement and then I can set a draft date and time.

Draft is standard, btw. Not auction.

I really missed fantasy baseball last season so I am involved with a truly irresponsible amount of PitcherList leagues this year, both wacky and not. I'm excited.

If you want to see me utterly break the brain of Eric Cross, a legitimate fantasy professional:

I'm going to have the third pick in the draft for a H2H league where the scoring is like this:



Now, I know I need to take deGrom/Cole/Bieber. But I'm sitting here thinking man, I'd sure love to grab Soto, Mookie, or Trout.

Would I be nuts not to take one of the pitchers here?

I'm super disconnected from the world in general right now so I passed off commisionership of the Fire and Forget league to someone else at random, if y'all still want to run it :v:

I thiiiink it was Inspector? I left my team in the league since I figure one gimmick team that I don't have to pay attention to past the draft is manageable though.
