Any interest in a KEEPER fantasy baseball league?

[smitdavi]

So, would anyone be interested in a KEEPER fantasy baseball league? Looking for about 10-12 EXPERIENCED players that would be willing to do this for a couple of years. Once we get enough interest we will sort out the keeper rules.

I would be in :tu

I'd love it. Never played in a keeper league, looking forward to it.
Are we gonna pony up some sticks to make it interesting? I'd be willing to gather them and distribute them at season's end, if that helps. I took care of it a couple times before.
If that's doable, I'll toss out some ideas based on how we did it before. :tu

I am experienced in fantasy baseball, but not keeper leagues. I do have a co-worker than can help me if needed. Let me know if you will still let me in. :tu

the only thing different about a keeper league is that at the end of the season you pick a few of your players and keep them...they dont go back in the pool for the draft. Usually a three year deal so if you pick a young hot prospect you can get three productive years out of him

Yeah. I understand how they work, I was just replying back to smitdavi b/c he said "experienced"

As long as your aren't a total noob to fantasy baseball is what I'm looking for. I don't want someone to just show up for the draft and set their line up once and not do anything for the rest of the year. For a keeper league you do need to be somewhat familiar of the young talent coming up through the ranks as it can drastically impact your team in the future. :2

I pray to the baseball gods that he does something for us this year.

As of right now I'd rather have Darryl Strawberry :r

I heard his problems all began when he started snorting Pepsi. ;)

ttt

[smitdavi]

Come on guys...we need 2 more

[vikesfan32]

No one is interested in fantasy baseball? Lets go and sign up!!!

[Cigargal]

we can always go with eight, but ten makes the prize pool bigger

[shilala]

Just checking in to see if this one has tanked.

It might be. I don't really want to do a league with only 8 teams. IMO that is just to few teams. If we can get 2 more people we are golden.

[St. Lou Stu]

Keeper leagues are hard to 1) get going, and 2) keep going.
I'm in one now that I've been in for 4 years now. It is to the point where some of my early minor league draft picks are starting to pay off. yay!
We usually start discussing the upcoming year for keeper leagues while we are doing our NFL draft. They need a ton of time for fence sitters to ponder.


All that said, I have a yahoo league that is just for fun (non keeper) that needs a few teams to fill up before the season.
PM me if you be interested.

Agreed. 12 is ideal. 10 is okay cause it leaves some room for developing pitchers. 8 is impossible. It's like a dice roll.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that feels this way.

[vikesfan32]

Any luck on this league?? Are we going to have one? And how much will this cost anyway?

No luck....cannot find more people. Don't want to do it with 8. This is on ice unless two people show up by the end of the week.

[kgoings]

I would join if you can get one more. Obviously it sucks that the season has already started...but it would still be fun.

[Cigargal]

Still time to start a league if one more person steps up...come on guys!
