2015 fantasy baseball keeper league

justinjames · 01-06-2015, 02:57 AM

I participated in a couple leagues on blowout last year and thought it went pretty smoothly. I'd like to start a serious keeper league with $ in the pot. Buy in will be $30. I do not want to deal with the receiving and shipping of cards so no card buy ins. I would like to say again that this is a keeper league and if you can not commit to that please do not join. I would like at least 12 teams in the league and a maximum of 16 if it's possible. Details will be below and if you have any questions pm or post thanks.

Just wondering. How do you keep 35 with a roster of only 32? Do you still have thta Crawford red in your avi? Sweet card

HeritageHoarder · 01-06-2015, 12:26 PM

Im in, sign me up if using espn

tiki4mvp · 01-06-2015, 12:46 PM

I'd be interested if the rosters were a little shallower... like extra middle infielder and corner outfielder are too much for me

The corner infield and middle infielder is normal for espn leagues. I'd like to keep the starting spots the same. I'm open to less bench spots though

MF39 · 01-08-2015, 04:28 AM

I'm down, been looking for a nice keeper league.

dirtydistance · 01-08-2015, 06:56 AM

Put me in for now. Will let you know if that changes. Haven't done much fantasy baseball the last few years, not by choice but because I haven't found people around me in for a serious league

tiki4mvp · 01-08-2015, 10:28 AM

Justin if maybe we paired down the roster by 5 or so slots i'd be in... corner is fine... but middle infielder is so thin i feel like we will all be playing junk there?

Got you down. A lot of experience is not required but attention to your team is.

Not as thin as years past. I'm down to bring the bench spots down but want to keep the starting line up as is. I'll pm you

justinjames · 01-08-2015, 03:07 PM

2 questions. How would everyone feel about 7-8 bench spots instead of 11. Only did 11 cause it's a keeper league and wanted everyone to be able to have a couple minor leaguers on their team if they wanted and 2nd how would everyone feel about people outside of blowout joining ? I have 2 buddies I'm in another league with that are serious about fantasy and are down to join

Edit: tiki is in. How would everyone feel about the keeper limit lowered?

hipywolf · 01-08-2015, 05:09 PM

I'll join if it is NL and AL. I've been in NL only and it is too thin. I also wouldn't mind a lower keeper limit.

It is both leagues. I'll put you down. I think that is something that could happen with the lower amount

MF39 · 01-11-2015, 01:32 PM

I'm fine with other people joining that aren't from blowout as long as they are serious about the league, the only thing that sucks is when people in a league stop taking it seriously after there team starts sucking.

The 2 guys who are interested are in a keeper league with me. I've known these guys personally for awhile now. They are serious about fantasy sports. It's still really early so if we don't need em no biggie

dirtydistance · 01-11-2015, 05:26 PM

H2h points helps with the competitiveness. People get bored easily with roto and h2h stats is so much of a crapshoot, so I like this setup

ChicagoCubsWS · 01-12-2015, 02:23 PM

Count me in.

SethMurphy · 01-12-2015, 05:24 PM

count me in, i played three leagues last year, should have room for one more

Sounds good guys got you in. Once we hit about 10 people I'll start to send pm's with Paypal. Would like to discuss cutting off at 12 or leaving the option for more teams.

Diem926 · 01-12-2015, 10:45 PM

What is the payout...top 3?

I was going to wait until the league was full but ya I would assume top 3. There would be $360 in the pot with 12 teams. 3rd get buy in and $330 to split between 1st and 2nd.

Diem926 · 01-12-2015, 10:53 PM
