Then pre-rank your players you damn wuss! It's not like we're playin' for your 82 Honda for christ sake... :D
I sold that to your sister. Said she needed more seat room. (What ever that means.)

Yes. Even if you don't show up to the live draft it will draft based off of your pre-rankings. I'd pre-rank about a top 50 - 75 so you can make sure you always get a guy you like.

While that may be the case, for those who will be in the live draft, this option sounds like it would be alot less fun than your sister! :wink:

It's a burden, but to come home after a Governor loss, then be able to spank you in GameShow and your sister in the back of her '82 Honda more than makes up for it! :wink: :D

It's a JOKE!

Just so everyone knows, there is only ONE spot remaining. No one join who won't play all year!

a change i officially propose, is change "innings pitched", and add the pitching category "holds".

there really isn't a strategy in racking up the innings pitched, other than stacking up starting pitchers. adding holds, adds value to a huge fraction of the entire major league.

in case anyone doesn't know, as i didn't know before i joined my first fantasy baseball league, holds are what set-up pitchers get when they come in in save situations, and turn the game over to the closer. for example, rincon setting up in the 8th in a save situation, then turning the game over to nathin. rincon would then get a hold if he doesn't blow the lead.

does everyone agree to this change, or shall we leave it the way it is?

haha I wasn't commish! Okajima still had excellent #'s, you just weren't getting credit for the hold! Sounds like we have about 4 or 5 votes including mine, another one or two and we'll change it.
