February 10, 20197 yr Going into year 5 of my dynasty league. I have finished 3rd, 1st, 3rd, and 6th, so I'm looking to get some money this year. 10 team league, no free agent adds, 28 man roster with a farm system, auction draft with a $275 cap. After keepers, signings, franchise tags, I will have $76 for my draft. This is my team so far C Yadier Molina 1B Freddie Freeman 2B 3B Kris Bryant SS Corey Seager OF Bryce Harper OF JD Martinez OF Starling Marte UTIL Matt Chapman SP Gerit Cole SP Carlos Martinez SP Lucas Giolito SP SP RP Blake Treinen RP Then I would need to fill my bench spots. Obviously I'll be targeting pitching in the draft.

PM or post if you are interested Sorry for not getting back to you in the personal message before. I'm looking hard for my fantasy baseball options this year, but I don't think I could take this league on/ team. It's a bit TOO much, methinks. 30 teams, big time dynasty. But holy shiat -- that team sucks, no?
February 10, 20197 yr I'm highly considering starting a year to year Soxtalk Fantasy Roto league. It would be a more relaxed league with preference to the more dedicated posters here. Not sure if it would include any money considerations, I kinda prefer no money. Would require at minimum 12 users.

Their best hitter is Brandon Nimmo... their best pitcher is German Marquez. ?

February 14, 20197 yr 1 minute ago, Greek-konerko said: Why not a h2h? I've done H2H all my life and every year it is determined by luck and not the better team due to the wonky playoffs. I was in 60 H2H standard leagues last year. I was first or second place in 57 of them (so I had first round byes) and clearly the best team in the majority of them. I finished first in like 30 or less of them. It's bogus. Also, H2H is a streamer based game. It's very intense where managers have to set daily line ups or risk being at a disadvantage, where the first manager to select the best streamers gets an advantage etc. Of course this can be diverted by a Weekly line up change setting, but then I think that hurts the reason why most people play H2H. Roto on the other hand takes an extremely balanced team where everybody is on the same footing. A manager can't stream SP's against the league because he'll run out of IP. So quality is better than quantity here. Thus, skill wins out often. It's also much more relaxed.. if you miss a few days it won't ruin your chance at competing. If you miss a few days in H2H, you likely lose the week.

I think it is the consensus that H2H takes a much larger effort over roto since it's a daily grind of line up changes and streaming whereas Roto for hte most part is set it and forget it and every now and then check your team stats and see what you need to aim for.

Honestly it's just the research to keep on top of to keep the team well rounded as injuries strike. With h2h I'm typically bad but am playing around with players I just think are going to be good with points. If you start a league I'll join. I miss fantasy.

I understand where you are coming from. On 2/14/2019 at 2:30 PM, joejoedairy said: More importantly, you were in 60 leagues last year?!?! I *love* fantasy baseball. More than that, I love drafting teams. I drafted 63 yahoo leagues last year for fun. I figured I would take the 8 best and just use that on one username (max teams per username is 8). However, as the season went on I enjoyed it so much and couldn't tell which 8 teams were my favorite so I kept updating every team daily. After a month of doing this, I couldn't randomly stop, so I just kept up with it all throughout the year. It's something I'll never do again. This year I have a firm 8 league limit and I pleasure myself by doing mock drafts instead of real drafts :p.

February 18, 20197 yr There just doesn’t seem to be a lot of interest here on soxtalk which is unfortunate.

February 20, 20197 yr Should I trade Machado in my Fantasy leagues because he's playing in PetCo? I have him in my two keeper leagues and I don't trust him in that ballpark. One is H2H points and the other is 5x5 roto. Edited February 20, 20197 yr by Jack Parkman
