Hey, I was not sure if anyone on this website players fantasy baseball on yahoo? If so, I am looking for 3 people to replace players not returning to a league I run. We have been playing this league for 5+ years, and it is a 8 player, head to head, keeper league. Here is the roster set-up, batter points, and pitching points break down.
Roster Positions: C, 1B, 2B, 3B, SS, OF, OF, OF, Util, SP, SP, RP, RP, P, P, P, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN, DL, DL, NA
Batters Stat Categories: Runs (R), Home Runs (HR), Runs Batted In (RBI), Stolen Bases (SB), Strikeouts (K), Batting Average (AVG), On-base + Slugging Percentage (OPS), Extra Base Hits (XBH)
Pitchers Stat Categories: Wins (W), Losses (L), Saves (SV), Walks (BB), Strikeouts (K), Earned Run Average (ERA), (Walks + Hits)/ Innings Pitched (WHIP), Quality Starts (QS)
If anyone is interested please reply with your email and I can send you the rosters. Thanks
I'm down. Sign me up! When is the draft?

However, since it's a keeper league, what are my options for team control? I'd like to choose which of the 3 I take over based on their rosters. lol

Hey, I am heading to bed here, but I will post the team lists tomorrow for you to review. I have no problem with you picking which team you would prefer. The draft will be a few days before the MLB season starts. I cannot set a date or time until I have a full list of players locked in. If you have any other questions just let me know.

PTsmitty Thanks! So how is it going to work? I keep how many of the players? Usually it's a set number. Is it an auction draft?
March 15, 2016 7:09 p.m.
You would get to keep 8 players. No auction involved with the draft. Just draft the positions you need filled. You can keep any combination of players. So 7 batters/ 1 pitcher, 1 batter/7 batters, etc. is fine.

PTsmitty Is Kris Bryant taken in the league already or is he available?
March 15, 2016 8:10 p.m.
Prior to the draft I will let everyone know of all the keepers so you can plan accordingly

PTsmitty CURSE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hahaha, he's my favorite. Got his jersey for Christmas. So is it a snake draft? or how does it work. I have pick #1 possibly, so what happens?
March 15, 2016 8:18 p.m.
You would then have the first pick every round. This will be a pro style draft.
March 15, 2016 8:27 p.m.
PTsmitty OK, I will definitely take Team #1 with the First Draft Pick. My team follows:
C) Russell Martin
1B) Jose Abreu
2B) Kolten Wong
SS) Xander Bogaerts
OF) Jose Bautista
OF) Charlie Blackmon
SP) Gerrit Cole

Ok, send me your email address and I can invite you into the league. You will need to create a yahoo ID if you do not have one
March 15, 2016 8:47 p.m.
The league invite was sent. Please let me know if you have any problems with it. Thanks
March 15, 2016 10:15 p.m.
I am working on getting the last two teams filled. I believe I have the two people that would be willing to take them.
