re: Anyone interested in throwing together a last minute keeper or redraft?

How do you feel about my semi-bold predictions?

I almost added Dillon Gee will be serviceable but didn't want to go too bold.

That's a great GIF by the way

Are we hell bent on it being an auction league?

What about it being a deep, dynasty league?

Keeping like 25 of a 30-man roster?

I agree that it does have to be unique in its own way.

Hopefully more people chime in...

I'd like auction too. The Votto league was my first one but just seems like the more fair/interesting style, especially with the keeper wrinkle. Even if the draft is a bitch.

I just feel that if we do an auction it should be a FAAB instead of a waiver wire.

No doubt it has to be FAAB

ESPN

$125 buy in? Extra $25x 12 people would generate another $300 for pot.

12-16 Teams

Keeper Auction Draft ($260 budget)

FAAB ($100 budget- processes Sunday Nights)

Roto? H2H? Points? 2 divisions, champions meet for the title?

2 catcher league? MI and CI positions? how many roster spots?


Here's an idea, keeper wise:

We use one keeper auction format in a number of Rotowire staff keeper leagues that I think works particularly well. After a player's initial year on your roster (called his "A year"), you can elect to keep him the following season at the same price (his "B year"). After his B year, you elect to keep him for either one more season at the same price (his "C year"), after which he must be tossed back into the auction pool the following season, or you can give the player a long-term contract. For each year you extend the contract, you must increase the player's salary by $5. By example, assume I select Gonzalez at auction for $2 in 2009, and keep him for $2 in his B year in 2010. If before the 2011 season I want to extend him through 2014, I would have to pay him a total salary of $17 ($5 x 3 + $2) in each of 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2014. The catch is that if I decide I don't like him and cut him prior to the end of his contract, I would lose half of his salary at auction each year until the contract expired. So there are incentives to extend long-term contracts to players who are greatly below market value, but extending a player for too long can have serious consequences if he get injured or becomes ineffective.

Best thing to would be create it and then put it out there. If you build it, people will come.

IP? Lol

so no saves/?

Those categories look good

So 5x5 H2H using these
