Hitter's paradise - Offense only points league

[Ray27Ray52]

I passed up on so many better players but I needed Breggy on my team. No regerts.

Man I get he’s coming off a 2nd ACL. But Acuna in the back of the 3rd feels like a deal.

Arraez/Kwan is such a funny combo at the turn, but it's a good time for both of them and I couldn't resist

1960s called and wanted their leadoff hitters back

[Eckstein197]

I’m gonna reach with my next pick mainly because I’m unsure if he makes it back to me in 16 picks

[SethMurphy]

IDK why I'm so excited to get Mike Trout in the 6th lol

[Hollywood42]

Thank you for doing it so I wasn't tempted

This draft has been super interesting. There's been a few stretches where I've had to cross off like 4 names off my next up list in the span of 6 picks. And then also a few stretches of a few guys that were entirely not on my radar at all

[todderfield]

Im just throwing darts at this point. lol

[Hollywood42]

You guys absolutely decimated my MI list that round. Brutal. Was really hoping Donovan in particular would last to me

I wasn’t letting Holliday slip past me especially seeing you lacking MI

[Hollywood42]

I was pretty sure you were going to take Correa thinking that I would

If I didn’t have witt I would have. Plus McLain

[Ray27Ray52]

Eck your average pick time is 2 minutes 41 seconds. Impressive.

Thank ya. Have Fantrax alerts on so I’m prepped and ready to roll

[Hollywood42]

Well that one went quick! I am sad it's over. But looking forward to the season! I think I like how my team turned out. Never will say I'm not interested in trading, but only thing I might look at for now is MI. Otherwise, the roster entering the season:

C - William Contreras
C - Gabriel Moreno
1B - Vinnie Pasquantino
2B - Luis Arraez
3B - Rafael Devers
SS - Carlos Correa
CI - Yandy Diaz
MI - Matt Shaw
OF - Juan Soto
OF - Steven Kwan
OF - Dylan Crews
OF - Seiya Suzuki
Flex - Brent Rooker
Flex - Kerry Carpenter

B - Brandon Lowe
B - Connor Norby
B - Garrett Mitchell
B - Matt Wallner

[Eckstein197]

Hollywood I’m so mad you took wallner

[Hollywood42]

He may be entirely unusable in fantasy due to his ridiculous strikeout rate and likely platooning situation, but damn if the hometown kid hasn't been flat out productive in every opportunity

Way better roto player than points player

[Hollywood42]

I noticed that currently the league was set to *not* score stats accumulated by the Tokyo series games between the Dodgers and Cubs that start on the 18th. I have changed this so these stats are included as I can't think of a reason we wouldn't want to count valid MLB games

I also adjusted the schedule so that the first matchup period is March 18th through April 6th - this feels excessively long, but after the 2 Dodgers/Cubs games on the 18th/19th, there are no more games until the "real" opening day on the 27th. And it'd be silly to have the 1st matchup be like 5 days worth of games, so the first matchup includes the following week of games as well

***Note*** - this means that any Dodgers/Cubs players will lock early on the 18th when their first game begins, so set your lineups before then! All other players should remain unlocked until the stateside opening day, at which point they should lock individually once their team's games start that day

[Eckstein197]

My team is so hot and cold:

One week I’ll win 8-1 and then I’ll go 2-7

[Hollywood42]

Good bump Eck. So how are yall liking this league? It's been a fun lower effort league for me, kinda nice to only have to set lineups weekly and not think much about it between then. And can I get a hell yeah for never having to deal with pitchers elbows exploding or 1 inning 7 run types of outings Being a little more hands off of a league hasn't let me get as accustomed to Fantrax as I was hoping to be yet, but it's coming along

I like it. It’s nice having a set and forget league

[SethMurphy]

I like the league, I don't love Fantrax. Just not a site I'm a fan of
