Fantasy Baseball Discussion Thread

Here you can discuss your team, trades, and the sort.

Just did an Al Only draft, 8 people league with head to head scoring. Had the first pic and wasn't really happy with it since the #5 pick is about equal to the #1 in the AL, but i thought i had a really good draft. And i have Scott Proctor starting since holds (holding a lead/setting up a save) is a stat, and the 1 or 2 he gets a week will win me a category almost everyweek probably

Can I get a question answered? I have never played fantasy baseball but did and my draft was a few weeks ago any ways, do you have like 4 or 5 starting pitchers or just one? because on my team I have Roy Holiday, Dice-K, Derek Lowe, those are my starters and the rest are relivers and a few backups, just wondering if I get points for those 3 starters in my first week?

also for the starting relivers?

[georgiafan]

you can have as many SP as you want. I usually have 3 closers and the rest SP

[RedSoxfan24]

I mean how many pitchers can you start a week and get points for? 1, 3, more?

Also John Smoltz is having a great day so far he has like 5 strikeouts in 3 Innings

Looks good although if you can I would find away to start Bonds
