Yes. Looks like around 7 PM CST unless we need to move it back it a little bit (like 30 minutes or an hour) to work with the ATL league.


If there are managers in the ATL league as well, I am all for moving it back 30 minutes. Give the managers a breather and make sure they aren't late. There isn't a real good AI for auction drafts. If you miss any part of the draft you could get screwed.

Their draft was moved to Wednesday. We are good to go on Sunday.

All we need are payments and Honkus back.

Our ATL draft was moved to next Wed so no worries there.

We can find a person probably by days end.

Are there transaction fees? Also, how do we FAAB? In my current leagues, we email the Commish to process these moves and pay a 25 cent fee for the moves.

Edit: Also, where it says U and P, can these be ANY positional players? Finally, in this league, how do players earn eligibility in position in-season - 10 games?

Moves are free and unlimited.

This is the first year using FAAB. You are bidding on free agents twice a week. I honestly do not have a great explanation of it.

Utility (U) is any hitter. Pitcher (P) is any arm.

Standard ESPN eligibility. I believe that is 10 games in-season.

No transaction fees in real cash.

Utility is whoever you want in there could be a catcher or SS.

P means either a SP or a RP (watch max # of IP's)

Do we physically enter bids on FAAB? And do we physically makes lineup changes ourselves on a potentially daily basis?

I am asking because of the league differences and just don't want to make boneheaded decisions. Thanks for the responses so far!

Last question, is there a way for me to see the prices for players from previous years? This is a custom league and I am trying to quantify the appropriate prices.

Yes, when you go to pick up a player, you just type in what amount you are willing to bid. And you make your own lineup changes, you're a big boy.

No, I am aware of being a big boy. In other pay leagues, you just have to email these moves instead because there is a fee for each. That's all. Just getting all my information.

I will try to pull that up for everyone to see. Never mind. PSU got the link for you.

Yeah.

Yes, the only cost in this league is the $50 entry fee. All of the money goes to the top finishers at the end of the season.

You are encouraged to make as moves as you need to in order to help your team at no cost.

Thanks. I noticed a 1400 IP limit, but that three owners exceeded that. How does that work?

The limit was 1500 IP last year. That was too high, so I adjusted it to the standard 1400.

At the end of the year. when you are at 1399 IP's. Just start as many starters as you can. All those IP's will be counted for that day. Not sure if its different for ESPN. That was a known loophole for yahoo.
