My Snarkobots will either win or be spiteful jerks in defeat! PS. I've got another league drafting next weekend if anyone wants more action, I've got some space.

I am down for fantasy baseball! If anyone wants to do the oddball stats league again, I'd be down for that as well (we selected the more obscure stats to track like putouts, triples, etc, instead of the RBI, Runs, HRs).

Just signed in as Elway's Toupee. Is it too early to call dibs on Rickey Williams and his bong?

And The Count now says twelve, twelve teams and that is all that the league can take. We wish you good luck!

We're at ten teams now and space for two more. I'll email the league with possible stats choices and whichever 5, 6 or 7 get the votes will be in. How's that?

I'm the Spunchmonkeys and I'm not sure about whether you want more errors or less. It seems, intuitively, that more errors would be better in this instance. The draft can be set for whenever we get enough teams in, it can be live online or autopicked.

Damn, I did want errors in there. 7x7 with Stolen Bases Allowed too?
posted by fenriq at 11:36 PM on May 26
Okay, so far its a 6x6 with the stats being: Batters: Games Started, Triples, Sacrifice Flys, Hit by Pitch, Ground into Double Play and Putouts. Pitchers: Total Batters Faced, Home Runs, Hit Batters, Balks, Holds and Total Bases Allowed. Sound good? I'll finalize the league and post the link and password, first 11 other teams to get in are in.

Batters: Hit by pitch (Biggio anyone?), GIDP (shame Marquis Grissom retired), Errors, Sacrifice Flys and At Bats (but Putouts might be cooler) Pitchers: Outs, Wild Pitches (no more Ankiel makes this a tough one), Balks, Save Chances and Hit Batters (though Holds or Total Bases Allowed might be fun too). The league's go up to 12 teams so let's get 'er going once we've arrived at a consensus of stats to use.
