HGH and Centaur Paintings is back for another season. Greetings from Italy, noted baseball powerhouse and home to famous Italian baseball hurler Matt Harvey. Feel free to name your team after anything honoring this proud nation and its wonderful people.  Stupid Special Rules There is a  fee, with the money divvied up 60/30/10 to the first, second, and third place teams respectively. Every year the winner has been paid so your ten dollars are safe with me.Mandatory 3 Keeper rule: You must keep 3 players before the draft, despite how lovely your roster is. If you don't keep three players I will select them for you based upon average draft position. This is an ESPN league with 80% goons in it. Scoring is Batting Average, HR, RBI, R, BBs, and SBs on offense. Ks, Wins, Saves, Holds, ERA, and WHIP on pitching. We use the Free Agent Auction System which results in hilarious overpays for waiver wire guys and dudes that get called up for one start and then sent back down. This is the current roster size. Four seasons ago we added a 4th OF which helped prevent the glut of good OFs sitting on the waiver wire. DRAFT DATE: We're hoping to draft Sunday, March 19th at 7:00PM EST. This should give enough time for players to get injured in the WBC and Spring Training and still give you a week to trade the five DHs you drafted before opening day.

Quoting myself from the old thread.coronaball posted:
I don't think it's as important as ending before week 18 in football, but it definitely was lame having a half full lineup on the last day of the season last year. I would suggest that we end on Sunday, 9/24.

The ESPN email system is so bad I think only like 2 people got the email asking if they were coming back. I'm not kidding. Glad you're back dude.

The Syracuse team didn't have their keepers set so I choose the top three according to ADP: Soto, Burnes, and Goldschmidt.

I promised myself I wouldn't lament Trout going on the IL since of course that would happen at some point. But when all 3 keepers (Trout, Bichette, Ohtani) are either IL/DTD and two of my top pitchers (Eovaldi, Wacha) are also on the IL so I'm spending two roster slots on dudes in street clothes, well... I choose to lament by Bumping the thread!
