I'll leave structure up to somebody who has a little more knowledge of it all, maybe we can run a few different leagues depending on level of interest, and priorities of those who are interested.

I'm in. And ... I need some advice in my other league

1B David Ortiz
2B Aaron Hill
3B Ryan Zimmerman
SS Troy Tulo
OF Jay Bruce
OF Brett Gardner
OF Jayson Werth
UTIL Jose Reyes
UTIL Ian Desmond
SP Justin Verlander
SP CC Sabathia
RP Jose Veras
RP Steve Cishek

Bench is: Jarrod Saltalamacchia, Justin Ruggiano, Alexisi Ramirez, Corey Hart (1B/OF), Denard Span
Other SP: Jeremey Hellickson, Trevor Cahill, Mike Minor, Jonny Cuento

Considering that I forgot about the draft, I think I did okay.  I think I'm weak in pitching, particularly in relief pitchers, and could use a decent first baseman. I have a plethora of shortstops though. Wondering if I need to trade one and pick up another RP or a 1B. And if so, who?

There were 2 WNFF fantasy baseball leagues in 2012:
Head-to-Head and Rotisserie.


cmdterps44 has setup an ESPN Head-to-Head league the last 2 seasons.  Last year, the Live Draft was on April 2, 2012. Last year it was set so that all 10 categories scored all season, rather than a weekly winner take all.  This year, our commissioner will remember to set it up with a Daily - Lock at First Game of Day, and NOT First Game of match-up i.e.Weekly - Lock at First Game of Week.

LINEUP LOCKTIMES - Individual roster slots lock when the team of the player in that slot is scheduled to begin their first game of the day. - This was not set correctly last year, so we couldn't replace players who were scratched before their game with a bench player.

Roster locks involve add/drops while lineup locks only involve active/bench. For instance, when the first game of the day starts, your roster is then locked. Any players added after will display on the next day for daily leagues and on Monday for weekly leagues.

We had a Matchup Acquisition Limit of 7 (for 7-day matchups) last year.  Obed_Marsh prefers unlimited.

The reigning champ for the last TWO seasons WNFF Head to Head fantasy league:

MarquisDeSade - manager of Pentagram Pushers, who won the tiebreaker in the 5-5-0 tie in 2012.

We had too many Quitters, who stopped managing their teams for much of the season.  Checking your team is like checking your email.

What is that? A 10 team mixed league?

Too many quitters? That's because it's free. We should have a WNFF-linked PayPal account. WNFFrrs could deposit their money, and a moderator could send it out when the League ends.

This could be used for March Madness, fantasy football and other wagers.

I sent cmdterps44 a PM asking if he's going to set up the fantasy league again, since he has email addresses for last year's players.

POLL: when is  the best day/time for a Live Draft?  Monday is Opening Day, yesterday was start of Passover, this Friday is Good Friday, this Sunday is Easter Sunday.
