Could always do one of each as well... lol

Not sure which I prefer. I'm kind of thinking roto, but the strategy seems more straight forward for a beginner in h2h.

Cool, I'll probably try one this weekend.

I would definately love to enter a league with yall...Im throwing my vote in with a H2H league but will do the roto is thats what yall want...just more fun to me to be able to say you beat someone each week

Do you have to be a member of a league to do a mock draft? I can't seem to figure it out.

 

[bone3421]

fuck it one league for each h2h/roto ........now do we have 10/12 people and espn/yahoo

 

[gregrey972]

and you have standings much more like baseball then instead of rankings with each stat...when someone you are banking on for a couple different stats goes down you are still ok bc you dont fall more than 1 win behind each week...I just think it keeps it more competitive for a longer period of time to play H2H

no there should be a grey tab that says "draft central" when your on the fanasty baseball page.......

Seem kinda light in the OF.... that said, "elite" pitchers do just as well as non-elites. (most weeks). So the Kershaw pick in the 2nd round... might have gotten you a decent bat.

Something to consider...

That's kind of what I was wondering about. Is it best to get your big bats first and then look for pitchers with good run support to get wins?

I picked Bautista for a corner OF position and I think I screwed up by picking Berkman as I'm not convinced he can have another season like last year, but the OF was pretty well picked through.

 

[gregrey972]

I normally give people a hard time for picking heavy on their home or favorite team, but in this case, the Rangers are a pretty good pick these days!

 

[gregrey972]

I registered for both leagues and I have to say that the yahoo league has an interesting scoring system for H2H...never played yahoo fantasy baseball..just ESPN

 

[gregrey972]

just a suggestions...and I didnt follow this so I hope I can change my name...should we all register our name the same as it is on here so we will know who is who?

relievers only really count for saves so you want closers

the standard pitching scoring is era,whip,runs,k's and saves
