Yeah, haven't heard from mikey. He hasn't visited the site since the last season ended, so I dunno.

Yoda 02-12-24 10:35 AM

Alright, I tagged him a week ago so at this point if somebody's interested in the spot, let me know. Want to finalize teams soon so we can draw a draft order and settle things.

So, as I indicated to Yoda in PM, I’m willing to join. It does sound fun.

Adam's good. Or, as he put it, "as good as he can be." He travels all over for work now and might be in Tokyo, but would try to draft from there if need be.

He was in Dubai just a couple of weeks ago, too. I asked him "When did you become James Bond?" and he sent me this:

Okay, we're set, I'll draw the draft order in a bit (tomorrow if work is too distracting, probably) and post it here so you can all mock more productively. :up:

Started sending messages asking for slot choices, everybody make sure to check and reply quickly. If you haven't received one, unfortunately that means you're on the back half, choice-wise, but hey, don't worry, decent chance people in front of you pick slots you didn't want anyway! :)

Also: A BIG thanks once again to Chris for doing all the behind-the-scenes work in the league. Much appreciated!

Wyldesyde19 02-14-24 02:57 PM

Thanks for accepting me in the league guys. Looking forward to seeing how this goes. It’ll be interesting, at the least. Hopefully I don’t mess up my line up and second guess my starters oh well*
Let play ball!

With 180 days of lineups coming...this is definitely happening. :laugh:

But that's the nice thing about roto, there's just so many decisions, it's unlikely a single decision swings things. It really is one of the fairest fantasy experiences out there, because it's the accumulation of thousands of decisions.

In a completely bizarre turn of events, I've started researching players on a day that isn't the same day as the draft. :D

Let's see if putting some extra work in changes things up for me...

TONGO 02-15-24 11:40 AM

I must have been at the end of the line because I haven't heard from Chris though he already has my draft order. Nice thing about Fantasy Baseball is your entire season doesnt live or die by however well you draft. So much talent out there, I've heard of 20 team Fantasy Baseball leagues. Imagine that! You can't do that in fantasy football.

It is always quite nice to pick first and just tell everyone who you're taking. YOU CAN'T STOP ME.

Wyldesyde19 02-15-24 03:32 PM

Until he gets injured and is out for the rest of the year. Or worse…he pulls a Mike Trout.
Then it’s all like “Now who’s laughing?”

We can always trade draft positions. Your first pick getting hurt and being a bust would hurt alot less if it was the 11th pick ;) Seriously though, glad you're here and thanks for stepping up.


Thanks to Yoda also for his time and patience getting this together.


We allowing a prospect slot or two this year? Best to cement it now before we draft. I say Yes :)

Yoda 02-15-24 06:41 PM

Re: MoFo Fantasy Baseball - 2024 Signups
 
I mean, I'd be fine with it but I'm not sure of the mechanics and we'd need, say, two-thirds buy-in very very quickly to do it this year.

It's very hard to get responses from people on even the most basic stuff so significant changes tend to require a lot of lead time.

TONGO 02-15-24 08:59 PM

Yeah. Best to just let things settle now that all the pieces have been set.
