  • uh, i'm cool with 14 as well, but thus far our vetting process is...nonexistent. if we're going to add two more people let's make sure that they're down to manage their teams and stay involved for the

    it's now a double secret protest. i already sent in paperwork to the commissioner, so you probably haven't seen it.

please stop.

I am good with wins. Too many teams are hooking their guys early as Derka mentioned. Too many 5.1 and 5.2 outings last year.

look at capt cool over here.  i dont give two shits, but its a valid argument since wins/qs seems to be debated every year to add both.  also if we are adding an extra of spot, why not add an extra offensive category as well to make it 6x6?  caught stealing, babip and xbh aside, there are probably a couple categories to choose from.  just an idea, not trying to change the fabric of the game over here.

We already have a 6x6 FYI

Batting:

R, HR, RBI, SB, AVG, OPS

Pitching:

K, W, SV, ERA, WHIP, K/BB

 

I'm fine with those, unless we want to discuss switching SB to Net SB. 

ha.  shows what i know.  thought we were 5x5.  carry on.

i'd be fine with replacing wins, saves and k/bb (we already get credit for k's and are punished for bb's), but i seem to be in the minority on all of those.

it is ridiculous that wins are still a thing in 2019 though.

wins/quality starts was an either/or thing.  no reason to do both or expand from 6x6.

my response was based on your yearly suggestions to add random stats like caught stealing or babip.

not in my house!

i know what you're saying, but with the invention of the "opener", quality starts might be a thing of the past as well.

We call your mom "the opener".

oh i've never thought quality starts was a great stat or anything.  it just does a better job of measuring a starting pitcher's effectiveness than w/l.

alright then. we're adding a fourth OF and leaving everything else the same. Let me know when you want me to knock out the draft order.

I think it would be great to be able to adjust/customize what a quality start is in our league. Obviously, that would need a fully customizable stat tool.

I would still prefer QS if it opened up the category at 5 IP. QS is better than Wins, but QS is quickly fading due to usage.

they should legitimately consider changing the stat to make it 5 IP with today's unique pitching methods and substitution patterns. if they did that i wouldn't mind having QS as a stat at all. 

I hate K/BB

it really is redundant. 

With what? I feel like it’s a great factor when trying to stream pitchers.

i think we should let derka do the draft order.  we have our 12 right?

looks like it was already done if I am not missreading it

Lets start talking draft night. 

The season opens in Japan with the Seattle Mariners vs. the Oakland Athletics on March 20-21. Traditional MLB Opening Day, for all 30 MLB teams, is March. 28.

Thoughts?

i prefer waiting to draft until closer to the real opening day on the 28th. i mean imagine using a high pick on Matt Chapman or Khris Davis and then he breaks his leg a week before opening day. 

I will be free after 8pm Central from March 25-27th.

yeah i think any of those dates should work for me as well.  lets ignore the opening series.
