He is a guy that goes into my friend's restaurant that was looking for a league. He was reminded again the accept the invite. If he doesn't by a certain point today just boot him. You know how it goes when you try to be nice to people and do them a favor. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Do these games count in fantasy?

These two games will indeed be the first regular-season games of 2024 and will count in the MLB standings. All stats that accrue in these two games will also be included in the first scoring period of ESPN standard leagues, which runs from March 20-31.

All 30 teams are scheduled to play on Thursday March 28 -- baseball's official "Opening Day" -- with all 15 of these opening series extending through Sunday March 31, the end of "Week 1" -- the first scoring period for the 2024 fantasy baseball season.

(Note: 16 teams are scheduled for a four-game series, while 14 teams will play only a three-game series, taking Friday off in what primarily are traditionally cold-weather cities with outdoor stadiums, which allows for the possibility of weather-related rescheduling. Due to their participation in Seoul, both the Dodgers and Padres are on tap to play six games in this scoring period.)

What happens if I schedule my draft for after the Seoul Series is played?

That's perfectly OK. Any league which completes its draft prior to the first pitch of the final game of the first scoring period (Sunday Night Baseball, which starts at 7 p.m. on March 31) will have all stats retroactively applied to their starting lineups for fantasy baseball's Week 1.

Any league which finishes their draft after all of Week 1's action has completed will begin their season with 2024's second scoring period (Week 2), which runs from April 1-7.

Can I set my lineup retroactively?

Drafts that are held after one or both of the Seoul games are played will have their lineups locked, as per league rules. That means the starting lineup you leave the draft room with cannot be changed until the next daily or weekly lineup lock, depending on your league settings.

For example, if you draft a Dodgers or Padres player to your bench on March 27th, you would not be able to move him into your starting lineup for either of the Seoul games already played, but in leagues with daily lineup moves, you would be able to insert him into your lineup for any subsequent games yet to be played.

In weekly lineup leagues, only Dodgers or Padres players would be locked in place for the rest of the scoring period in leagues that use the "Lock individually at First Game of the Week" setting. However, your entire roster would be locked in place in leagues using the "Lock at First Game of the Week" setting.

The lineup lock rule also applies to any desired Injury List (IL) moves.

Correct. Draft Mookie to your starting lineup and Yamamoto to your bench.

Okay, all eleven returning members have paid and are set. Same for rmc.

Three new members have been sent individual emails. If I don't get Joe to join the league in time, then I will delete the team to not impact the draft.

I hit up the other two (rmc and Fleur) to pay. I would think we end up 13, but you never know because it looks like Joe filled out the Google Form to play.

2024 New Members

1. rmc PAID
2. FleurDeLonestar NEEDS TO PAY
3. Joe Messore STILL NEEDS TO JOIN AND PAY

Nothing like 2 random games in Korea 10 days before the rest of the league starts


I see both teams went back to playing spring training ganes this week since their return... which makes sense.. but what a joke the whole thing is

No response. We are rocking with 13.

Any last minute stuff before the auction starts in two hours?
