Whooo baseball yeahhhhhh.
I was going to post this tomorrow, but it's 53 degrees out and everything's feeling Springy, so I can't resist. Obviously starting signups earlier only increases the amount of time we spend actively waiting for the baseball season, but it still tricks my brain into anticipating that, instead of waiting to anticipate it, so why not?
First thing's first: if you're not in this league, there may be room for you! It's a pretty competitive league, so you'll want to have played fantasy baseball before, and playing Roto-style, in particular, is a big plus. If you want to play, just reply and say so, and we'll do our best to make room. Note that we try to give priority to a) more active users and b) returning owners.
If you played last year, you actually won't have an invite waiting for you yet, because Yahoo hasn't opened the renewal process yet, but I think it happens in about a week. In the meantime, please check to make sure the email address you used last year is still correct, and if it's not, please PM me the address you're using so I can update it accordingly.
Concerning the draft time: I'm thinking either Saturday, March 10th, or the following Saturday, March 17th. Probably around the usual time, 1:00 PM ET (10:00 AM PT). I'm fine with either, but please reply by letting me know your availability for both dates. IE: "I can do both the 10th and 17th" or "I can one but not the other." Every single year I ask that people do this, and put it in bold and red, and every single year people reply with stuff like "I prefer the 10th." And then I have to rudely and tersely quote the big bold red part back to them again.
I'll keep a running list of confirmed owners here;
