That time of year: Fantasy Baseball anyone?

Unread post by havefunkc » Mon Feb 24, 2014 12:11 am

Just because I know there are a few summer boys on here, anyone up for a Yo's Cabin fantasy league (free of course)?

I don't know enough outside of the Reds to participate, but I will anyway.

Anyone know of where to find a good money league? Just out of curiosity. Otherwise I'd be open.

Yea I was wondering as well. I really like ESPN personally. It's more user friendly imo and the mobile app is good too.

I've never played any kind of fantasy sports game, but I'm willing to try.

I wouldn't mind getting in on a league.

Kool...

I'm thinking no money for this one. Let's make it just for fun. Freebie games keep it simple enough for just about anyone to play.

(I have veered away from the money leagues over the years. You need some serious time and research to make any decent cash. Although, I'm warming up to fanduel.com.)

Platform: there are several "free" platforms out there. Yahoo, CBS, E$PN, etc... Probably these best with decent player ratings/data is E$PN. So, let's go with E$PN (the mobile apps makes it really accessible).

Since it looks like there should be enough interest, let's go with the following:

If you're in for "Yosef's Cabin league 2014", Send/IM me your email and I will send invite from the league (ESPN). 10 teams (1 for me already). You can take a look at the general rules and league setup from there. Just for a quick look, league is setup for:

- 10 teams
- Live online snake draft (order/date/time TBD once we have teams in place)
- 2 day wavier is the only change from E$PN general rules
- Daily league: unlocked up to game time for individual players

If any questions - just ask. MLB starts play March 22nd this year (Dodgers/D-backs in Australia).

If we get more than 10, another "division" can be started in the league... :)

Let's have some fun!

Nice this should be fun. Definitely recommend people downloading the mobile app for it. Makes your life so much easier when adjusting rosters.
