I see I'm first. They made a new thread, I see how it works. The draft starts at midnight today, we post our picks in order.

Now, I am pretty new at this fantasy team thing, to be honest. One way I've seen it done is that you pick a team, and then start one player in each position that day, and then get points based on how they did. Is that how we are working it?

 

[Cantankerous]

OK, two questions:

1. What happens if one (or more) of your players get injured? Are you just as SOL as they are? Or can you "trade" players and get replacements?

2. What happens if one (or more) of your players get traded to another team? I would assume it would not be a problem if they stayed in the AL, but what if they're traded mid-season to the NL? And hell, what if they're traded before spring training ends?

OK, for the record that was six questions.

 

[WildFire]

Good point(s). If they get injured, as we do in hockey, we put them on the Injured List and wait for them to get healthy, and pass the time by trading for new players, or visiting free agents or the waivers to pick some guys up.

2. No clue

Well technically there is no answer, since this is a draft and not a league. If it were a league there would be a waiver wire. The other question is easy. Any stats a player gets in the NL dont count.

I notice that everyone but AoA is posting in the PM. Cgannon you are at AoA's mercy, but the rest of us could try to be at it around 7:00 to 8:00 and knosck out the bottom end at one swing.

PS Any suggestions for a league motto?

 

[Cantankerous]

Sounds like a good idea to me.

Motto: "Here's hoping none of your players get traded to the National League."


And we can call our "mock draft league":

CivFanatics Center Major League Baseball American League faux-Fantasy League

...or CFC MLB AL FFL for short.

Good question.

We are now officially looking for a name and a motto. Apply below.
