chamb117 Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 hey guys -- i know this is bad timing but it's probably high time for me to step away from this team. i completely forgot about it and don't think i'll have adequate time to devote to it this year. especially in light of the buy-in -- not that i'm reluctant to do so, because i'm all for it, but in light of it, it's all the more reason to step away from if i can't be fully invested. sorry everyone! hope you're able to fill my spot.

Sucks you won't be in it this year. What was was your team name from last season? I don't want to remove the wrong person. Thanks. It looks like we will need a new member for this season.

stl_ben Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 So is there a buy in or not? Sounds like certain people are out depending on which way you decide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirrichardrichard Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 I`m in for whatever....buy in or not. I`ve got some records I could throw the way of the winner, but the shipping from Canada would be about the cost of any buy in. I`ll get my keepers to you one night this week. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Posted March 20, 2017 Author Share Posted March 20, 2017 I cap at $20 for buyin. I've never done vinyl before, not really sure I understand that part.. keeper rules are the same as last year, right? you keep the player in the round minus 2 from where they were drafted? and mid-season FA pickups start as round 12 or 15? right?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Posted March 20, 2017 Author Share Posted March 20, 2017 and how many players can we keep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Posted March 20, 2017 Author Share Posted March 20, 2017 On 1/31/2016 at 10:53 AM, ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ said: league innvites have been sent draft is 23 rounds, we will designate that any undrafted player (a player who was picked up during the season and went undrafted in the 2015 draft) will be designated as a round 15 keeper. multiple undrafted keepers will add +1 round, so two kept players will be round 15 and 16. If that is the round of a player you drafted who you want to keep (a player drafted in round 17+ with the -2 round penalty attached) that player will take round priority and will bounce your undrafted keeper one round back. mike trout drafted round 17 in 2015 andrew mccutchen was undrafted mike trout round be a round 15 keeper, andrew mccutchen would be a round 16 keeper. let me know if anyone has any questions, we will have 5 keepers for this draft. I will have a group email going out to everyone, please reply back to me with your team name and your 5 keepers, do not reply-all on the email. we will designate the draft date about 1 - 2 weeks out from opening day. this was last year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NapalmBrain Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 I'm in for a vinyl buy in, would be fun to do some fantasy baseball this season, I've never participated in a league of this style but I'm sure ill pick up the rules pretty quick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whoshotthefrog Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Would a $20 buy in be good for everyone? We can even make the prize a gift card to Newbury Comics or some other place. Just wanted to throw that idea out there. Also, does everyone want the prize winnings to be winner take all or broken down to $150 to 1st place and $50 to 2nd place?

stl_ben Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Seems like I'm the only one not interested in a buy in. Go ahead and take me out the. Enjoy Kris Bryant! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whoshotthefrog Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 I really hate to see Ben not return, but if he's adamant about not returning because of the buy-in then we need to find one more team. Anyone interested either post a message in here or PM me. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brock N Roll Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Honestly, only reason why I'll do it again is because of a buy in. Im fine with whatever the buy in is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NapalmBrain Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 if you really let want the cash buy in I can make it happen, but I was gonna give the winner a record tailored towards their taste probably more in the $30-50 range. But if that complicates things I can just paypal the $20 do we do that up front or when the season ends if we go that route? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanRees Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 In the hockey league we use a site called league safe that everyone makes a payment in and the winner(s) get paid out through at the end of the season. Makes it a little easier so no one is responsible for holding the $ all season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
