Thanks for the heads up, but it should not affect us. Also, we honestly sort of had those smaller lineups already. I always felt two catcher was the craziest industry thing.

quote:

If you're a returning fantasy baseball manager...

... worry not! Your league will still carry over its former settings, meaning that if you played in an old-school rotisserie league, with 23-man rosters and two starting catchers that has a scoring system that doesn't count runs scored or pitching strikeouts -- or any other conceivable format -- you'll begin 2023 with those very same league specifications.

These changes only affect newly created ESPN standard leagues.

If you're a returning league, and you do wish to change your rules to our new standard format, this can be done using the League Manager Tools, under "Edit League Settings" and "Edit Scoring Settings." Positions can be changed under "Roster," while point totals can be adjusted under "Scoring."

Feel free to get creative! There are so many ways to experience fantasy baseball, and our hope is this new standard format will only enhance the enjoyment for all fantasy managers.

Now, let's play ball!

It would be nice to get another owner or two in addition to Honkus and TThomasJr of course. Lol.


Okay, we have 12 owners returning. I will update the thread title to see if we have 1-2 who want to join.

Since we have our 12 returning members, I want to make one more call for any rule changes. If we have nothing else, then I will send out the Google Form to determine a draft date + vote on any potential changes.

Proposed Rule Changes

- The Express mentioned switching from QS to Wins.
- Ridiculous Hype mentioned switching back to SV + HD from SV.

Sounds good, I’ll shoot you an invite to the league.

I’m assuming you’ve played fantasy baseball before. Do you have any questions?

Basically all the big stuff should be answered in the first post of this thread.

Only thing I’m not sure on is the auction draft but I’ll figure it out. Haven’t done one for football yet but have been wanting to try it.

Okay sent to that updated email.

Next step is to send out the Google Form for the draft date and any rule changes. I will email that out through ESPN when I do it (as early as tomorrow). We can continue to look to add a 14th owner if we want.

So you don’t just stream a bunch of crappy starters every day to win QS and K.

It’s pretty hard to hit the limit to be honest, and ESPN shows you your season-long pace each day.

Damn Honk, sorry to hear it. Someone else will need to bid up OPS guys and closers.

I’ll delete your team closer to the draft to stay optimistic in case anything changes lol.

Sorry for the delay, everyone. I will get the Google Form out by tonight hopefully.

We should be all set outside of voting on rules + draft date.

Thanks to the nine who have filled out the Google Form already for rules and draft dates.

I left the results visible who completed the form to see the results, but posting the possible draft dates here as well.
