how is everyone doing out there?
this crisis is going to be more of a marathon than sprint that is sure. I hope everyone will be OK be it mentally,physically or financially.
and all that I suppose will vary wildly for everyone. as well as be very fluid day to day week to week.
while far from a priority but still somewhat valuable as a distraction and pastime. I have been finalizing my outline for a new fantasy baseball league. if I get the interest from enough people I will go forward with it. and despite the definite uncertainty of the 2020 MLB season being further delayed or cancelled? the league would then be set up and "toll" over(rosters etc.)to 2021.
a brief outline for the league is as follows. I will not elaborate in this post considering who may not be interested. or otherwise preoccupied with more pressing needs.
Yahoo free 20 tm -8 playoff tms -generally a simplified and less administrative (less time consuming etc.)mirror of this league.
not franchise i.e. you do not pick a MLB franchise. a email draft will take place and or email/part live drafting. tbd is how draft order would be set. you are responsible to draft within a cap and a floor.
tbd also is the roster size it will be either 35 or 40 man. with 20 starting positions. their is no minor leagues etc. you manage your roster as one entity how you wish. salary cap and floor will be only management needed. free agency/waivers will be FAAB. you win FA's based on that system you then get their MLB salary. cot's salaries will be used as a strict key.
1st season NO trading several intended reasons for this. 1st season NO rookie/prospects will be allowed to be owned unless you draft them. they go into draft pool for following season. this includes anyone making their debuts in 2020.
there obviously is plenty of time for all this. if you are interested. I ask the following for you to consider. the depth and knowledge required to compete in such a format. that you be committed to the whole process from the draft/initial rules setting to the season as whole. managing your lineup and roster whether your in 1st place or last for the full season. and that you adhere to a no drama and or cheating/collusion policy. I need someone who is interested to suggest a way to set up communications etc. in a less obtrusive manner than posting here on this board or the cobra yahoo league page. ok take care out there and keep the faith.
