nZane Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 Well, the football league went very well, and the basketball league has gone pretty well also. So, thought I'd gauge the interest in a GDS Fantasy Baseball league. Most likely through Yahoo again, just because that seems to work the best. Any thoughts? EDIT: Went through ESPN. If you're interested, either send me a PM with your email address or leave a reply in this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nZane Posted March 3, 2008 Author Share Posted March 3, 2008 If either of you, or anyone else for that matter, has any suggestions on the best set-up, I'm all ears. I haven't had a chance to take a look at the Yahoo defaults yet, so this is still in the planning stages... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was planning on trying something different with some buddies. But alas, I didn't get very far. I will look, but it may be tonight before I get a chance to look at it again.

nZane Posted March 3, 2008 Author Share Posted March 3, 2008 Ok, I've set up a 12 team H2H league with a live draft tentatively scheduled for Sunday March 23 at 3:00p EDT. Looks like the default scoring categories are Runs, Homers, RBIs, Steals, Avg, Wins, Saves, Ks, ERA, and WHIP. Look good? If not, changes can certainly be made. I'll wait to see if there is more interest before sending out the info. EDIT: Should probably mention the default roster: C, 1B, 2B, 3B, SS, OF, OF, OF, Util, SP, RP, P, P, P, DL, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallbanger Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 Oh, what the heck. Baseball isn't my strong suit but it should be fun nonetheless. (Then again, neither is basketball, and I'm doing pretty OK there. :D) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm much more of baseball fan than a basketball fan, so I'm rather looking forward to this league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Then again, we all know how that ended... ;)) I can't believe that my super-planned football team crashed and burned and my accidentally guard-ridden basketball team is half decent... (I even made a trade that ended with me giving up Marcus Camby for Jermaine O'Neal!!!!) As for baseball: I'm completely in the dark in regards to it... If you need an extra player, though, my friend that joined the basketball league is a huge baseball fan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I for one can't make that draft date as I'm hosting it for my family this year. As for the settings looks good, I usually add an extra SP and RP in their though. Also if you want a couple more options, like setting up divisions and such, you could try ESPN's site out, me and the various keeper leagues I'm in recently made the switch from Yahoo to ESPN, and I like their set up a whole lot more. Only problem there is you have to send out email invites to owners, rather than just giving them a password and league ID. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's easily adjustable though. Right now, we have five people (six, if you count MJD). I'd like to have twelve, ideally. As for ESPN or Yahoo, I'm indifferent either way. If the consensus is that ESPN is better, then we can easily set up a league over there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjdgoldeneye Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 My friend has said that he'll play if he can. He won his league last year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocStevens Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 Count me in if you use ESPN, they seem to have a really good set up over there and you can even do a keeper league which might work since many of us will probably play again next time around.

nZane Posted March 10, 2008 Author Share Posted March 10, 2008 Just took a quick look, and I like the customization options over on ESPN, so unless anyone has any major objections, we'll go with that instead. Counting MJD and his friend, by my count we're up to eight people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
