For everyone who plays fantasy baseball: Who did you/ are you going to pick for your top 5 players? I got a draft coming up at 4:30 and I'm still debating...

Not really. It's pretty cool though. If you do the draft live it takes a while (1 1/2-2 hrs.), but from then on you just have to make sure you start players so they're not benched on days they're playing, especially pitchers. Takes me like 3 minutes in the morning. Then you can make add/drops or trades with other players in your league. You should do it...if you know other people who do it, you can start your own league on Yahoo. If not you can join a public leaugue where you play against random people, although it's more fun to compete against people you know and you can get $$$ involved if you want...etc etc

You have a pretty damn good team, not sure how Livan will do this year, but players bounce back all the time

Me either. I drafted him pretty low so I'm just hopin he gets a few wins for me. He's definately on the decline and he's got a lot of innings under his belt so chances are I might have to drop him. We'll see.

You got some real good offense. Good hitters and a lot guys capable of stealing some bases. Good Luck with your league man...

you too man, the league Im in is semi-competitive, the people in it are all people I know, my brother started the league, and alot of our friends are doing it, which makes talking smack alot of fun.

Id say about 8 of the 12 teams were drafted pretty good, the rest arent really going to be much competition, dont think they know what they are doing, just in the league for the fun of playing people they know...

How you doin in your league so far?
