The deadline for returning owners is coming quickly and I am getting no responses. We are going to need another 3-4 owners to fill out those teams. Once again, anyone interested can just reply here, or email/dm me on twitter. It's a keeper league, and you will get to choose 5 players from your current roster(of the team you will be taking over). I only want owners who will be playing for sure, and will want to come back next year. I will email or list the teams here for anyone interested.

I'll join if you'll have me. Dominating one league last year just wasn't enough. Let me know.

I like team 5

I like team 5

I figured you would, I was going to hold out for that owner because he had such a good team, but he hasn't responded to any emails that I sent since last season sometime, so fuck it. I need an email address for you so that I can send you the invite.

[Rick Vaughn 99]

Nothing to see here

you may want to break that e-mail up so the bots don't get a hold of it.

If you can't find enough, I say just get an even number of teams, probably 14 at this point, then release the other rosters back into the draft pool. It would suck, but I'm not sure what else to do.

With Rick taking one that puts us up to 13 ready to go, with 3 un-owned teams. I think I can find 3 other owners in time to set keepers and still have some time before the draft, but I am already considering the option of contraction if it gets too close to the deadline. I would just hate to do that to everyone who's been in the league for two years already. (although it would make for an interesting draft)

And the other problem would be that it makes expanding the league back to 16 owners pretty much impossible. Hopefully this will be a moot point in the next week or so.

Daily or weekly lineups?

Or do you run everyone on the roster always contributing stats to the categories?

Daily lineups. It's head to head versus a different person each week using stat categories: R, H, RBI, AVG, HR, SB, W, SV, HLD, K, ERA, WHIP

[King Jeff]

Alright, Ricky took one, and I have been communicating with someone for one of the other spots, so we have two teams left if anyone is interested.

Yeah, it's a pretty standard category based, head-to-head league(it gives a little bit of a different strategy than point leagues). I am open to tweaks on roster size and stat categories, but I won't make that decision on my own, I want league wide input before we change anything.
