It sent the invite to your 2k6 ID and you joined with your 2k10 one, so it thinks we'll have 13 managers when everyone joins.

 

I see. I'll delete and re-join.

I want to bring up a suggestion...

 

I know this has traditionally been a standard 5x5 league, but do we want to tweak the categories a bit? It seems silly to me that walks don't matter at all and a single is worth just as much as a double or triple. I could drop batting average and add OBP, possibly slugging% as well (though that would probably overvalue homers a bit). My only problem with that is that I don't really like any of the additional pitching categories and I feel like keeping it relatively balanced is important. The most standard ones seem to be holds (totally changes roster composition), shutouts (far too random and not enough of them) or homers allowed (meh).

 

Anyways, feel free to discuss or make suggestions.

Didn't you say that you were resetting keepers this season?

The bolded are my keepers. Breaking my heart that I have to let Cargo and Zimmerman go. :(

 

Zoom, let me know if anybody has a problem signing up. I made sure I signed up with my 2006 email. Shouldn't be any problems this time. And you're not staying with 14 teams, are you?

No, that was my temporary fix for the "league is full" error.

ok cool. Just let me know. Because I'm not even sure what I did the first time. I got the invite and signed up from the same e-mail I always have. Does it matter that my league nickname was different? I changed it back to Jordan4life_2006 where before it was 2010.

Zoom, me and Steve agreed to a trade. I'm giving Miggy, Cargo and Garza for Pujols and Kershaw.

Oh, not that this is any surprise. My new keeper list is Pujols, Tulo, Cano, Price and Kershaw. God damn I'm gonna miss Cargo. But a Tulo-Cano middle infield is as good as it gets. I might be comin' back at you after the draft Stevo.

Changing my keepers above, only removing Bautista from my keepers. I would like to just keep 4 guys and take the extra round pick. If I cant do this just let me know.

I believe that in order to set keepers on the game, everyone is required to select 5.
