Clicking on
Live Scoring shows the
8 scoring categories and you can see
Daily Stats and change in rankings. Those categories are the
only things that matter. (So accumulating Walks for Church did nothing to help me.) Whatever the rankings show after the
last regular game of the season determines final placements. So we're all trying to accumulate stats and improve or maintain the averages until then. Since no batter has hit over .400 since
Ted Williams, I assume the averages will come together more as the season goes on. Yours is the only team that never picked up its
2 free Reserve players (any position.) That will help get you an active roster.
Some of the other teams have
DL players on their active rosters. 10 active owners is ideal, so that a handful of teams don't grab all the hot Free Agents. You start 2 catchers, 5 OFs, 2 utility batters (any position), one each at 1B, 2B, SS, and 3B, 9 pitchers - with entirely your choice of how to mix Starting Pitchers (SP) or Relief Pitchers (RP, who may have been converted to SPs.) The individual player page will indicate if a batter is
Eligible for more than one position, or click on
Eligibility on
MyTeam. I looked up all your batters -
none are eligible for multiple positons. On my team,
Casey Blake can be used for OF, 3B, or 1B, for example, which gives flexibility with rosters and injuries.
When you change your team, the computer will post a warning if you have too many reserves or too many at one position. Changing players from
Reserve to
Active or from a position to
Utility or vice versa fixes it. So be careful not to add/drop players that would create a hole in a required roster spot. There's plenty of season left, so don't worry about being... um,
behind.
