Re:

And with this post, five of the 10 diaries on the main page are "Rate my team 1-10."

Can we put these all in one single thread?

no kidding

how obnoxious is this taking over the board as an individual fantasy team site?

Something Better?

If you have something better to talk about, why don't you start a diary of your own?

EE

Edwin Encarnacion isn't needed on your team. It's a daily yahoo league, David Wright will be in there all the time and you have Gordon. No need for this glut. You have concerns about Kazmir and Liriano, so get a veteran arm off the wire to help if you need it.

been thinking about it....

... ive kind of been waiting to see who makes rotations... most veteran arms are gone... ive got several guys im watching though... Parra, Danks, Marcum, Boof, Scott Baker, and Chuck James... with Baker and Parra being the most intriguing to me... though Marcum is supposedly improved, and has RP eligibility...

not sure what you mean by 'daily yahoo league'... its not a public league if thats what you mean... ive played with a few of these guys before, and some of them should be fairly competitive.

i keep waiting for EE to break out i guess... i drafted him last year as well... i guess i like the ballpark/lineup and his upside...

daily

meaning you start and sit guys every day, not weekly.

Never liked shallow leagues

If you only have 175-250 active players it's basically a question of "The all-star team with the least injuries" wins. More luck than product knowledge.

I agree

with this...I'm not a fan on small leagues, but I was asked to be in that specific 10 teamer. Can't say no at a chance to win $500.

I prefer much bigger leagues (like my 20 team dynasty with 25 MLB and 15 MiLB players taken). Yeah thats 800 total players.
