Shyte, saw this late, would have played although I know nothing of fantasy leagues.

All I can say is the Expos are going to win it all this year :biggrin:

Sure, I'm in. The more the merrier, right? I'll PM my email.

Now someone please tell me where I can't get some good basic info on how to do this so I don't look completely out of my league :shy:

How about a losers pack? Everyone includes a dog rocket or two, and that "prize pack" goes to the geek with the worst record...just a thought.  :angel:

Or a whole box of dog rockets  :biggrin:

OK

Draft is done

Now......what do I do???

I don't see any instructions, or a tutorial on setting a line-up

Sorry, I'm a confused rookie.

It's actually pretty easy to follow once you get the hang of it. You move players around by hitting the M button and then the spot to move them to. Your starting pitchers will have a P next to their name if I remember right. The little clipboard icon means you need to read up on that player that day.

 The system as it drafted would take the best player available and insert him onto that line up position.  So, theoretically oyur line up may be set with the best player in the best position.  Where you may need to look is what players may be hurt or on the disabled list (DL).  this would be a red set of letters after his name:
DTD = Day to DAY
DL15 = Disabled list for 15 days (same for DL30, DL60 just more days)
Move the ones you want to keep to the DL slots on your roster, just watch the DTD'ers they could be playing the next day

the second thing I look at is the bench, mine took three pitchers and only one position player I might want to get a better balance.

the league is set up pretty simple, so you really don't need to micro mange pitching since all of them (except the bench) are active.

 Feel free to PM any questions

Thanks Chuck and Stephen.

One thing I don't get though is even if I got 1st pick in the draft, I still ended up with Yoenis Cespedes as a 1st drafted player???
Why didn't I get Trout??? :-0  :cry:

Wow that's odd. Did you mess with pre-draft rankings at all?

I'm in massive need of a 2B if anyone wants to deal me a quality one for Prince Fielder I'd be interested.

I might have "played" with pre draft list and pick strategy a bit but I did not mess with the #1 pick on the list as it remained Trout and my first pick was set to best available. Maybe I accidentally did something I shouldn't have without realizing it, it was late and I was very tired.

Ah well, I still got a few I really wanted for no other reasons than Chauvinism (Russel Martin), Wishful thinking (Joey Votto) or, in David Ortiz's case, just plain favoritism as I've been a Red Sox fan ever since we lost our team and I love the "old man".

I do have a 2b I could spare btw, offer sent

Did we decide how many cigars to send? Dogrockets?

Also, If I change my lineup for tomorrow, does that lineup stay in effect until I change it again. I don't have to make daily changes if I don't want to right? 4 guys on the 15 DL to start, spectacular.

And do I need a DH, would he "play" in the utility spot?

I supposedly have a "Bye".  Does that mean that nothing my players do right now counts for anything?

once you put your team in it won't change until you change them... if you want you can go in for the next week and go day by day and put your line up in so you don't have to check back.

I think any player can go in the utility spot but would have to check that out.

Boy,

Am I glad I have a "bye" this week.  My team scored a total of 1 point on opening day.  The next lowest total was 34.  Is this possible?  Is my team THAT bad, or did they just have an "off" day from top to bottom.  What The H-E- Double Hockey Sticks is going on here.!!
