That would be me, but you have the last pick, not the first pick. :D

I totally just got pwned. I'm new to the keeper league game. Thought I had the first pick. I forgot the league winner (which wasn't me) picks last or whatever.

I was thinking about totally re-setting the rosters next year or making anyone that's been kept more than 3 years ineligible to be a keeper for the same team, it has been a while.

 

So what's the update on this? I think we should all know because it definitely affects strategy.

That'd be f***ing stupid. What's the point of a keeper if we reset? It's five guys.

I don't have a strong opinion either way. It gets kind of boring for me when I can totally blow the draft and still finish in the top-5 because I drafted well in 2006, but I won't exactly complain if I can keep starting with Hanley and Utley.

If you reset anyone who has been on the same team longer than 2 years, that works for me.

I agree, that's why I wanted to make sure.

I agree. A few of the guys I over-drafted (Strasburg/Chapman) was with the mindset that I'll have first dibs on them next year.

Hello, Albert.

Hello, Albert.

 

You're lucky he acted so fast. I could've topped your offer. :)

Still want to trade 2 hitters or a hitter and a pitcher for a STUD pitcher.

 

Please make sure that he hasn't been on the 60 day DL in the last 5 years. :) I'm not looking for a guy who will break down at a moment's notice.

So Zoom, I take it you've learned your lesson in regards to thinking that just because you have Utley/Ramirez that you're a lock for a top 5 finish every year? I wanted to beat your ass (in fantasy, of course) when you said that. If anything, we need to add to the keeper list. I've got Zimmerman, Miggy, Cargo, Tulo and Cano. And I get to pick only 3. :crying

I definitely sucked this year. My low activity level certainly didn't help, but I did basically the same thing last year (hence my boredom comment).

Steve must've prayed real hard last night before going to bed. .400 BA, 9 runs, 8 HRs and 15 RBIs from his offense today. Looks like I'm going to lose 5-4. f***in' bulls***. But I'll be back with a purpose next year. My keepers are already set.

 

Forget this post.

Nope.

 

There was a problem

 

* There is not room in this league if all teams from last year return. To join, get the commissioner to increase the maximum number of teams, or remove teams that will not be returning. (Error #638)

I see, it's all J4L's fault for using a different ID. <_>

 

I couldn't find a way to un-invite him, so I temporarily upped it to 14 teams. I will drop it back down once we get closer to the draft.

Wait, what did I do?

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.
