I just checked the other league's Fantrax page.  I looked at Carlos Beltran and he had 273 in both Fantrax and Baseball Reference.  So, TB = 1B + (2B*2) + (3B*3)+(HR*4) is correct.

i.e. Carlos Beltran TB = 89+(39*2)+(6*3)+(22*4) = 273

For all of the statistical websites (not necessarily Fantasy Baseball Scoring Services) total bases is simply the number of bases obtained by a hit.  TB = 1B + (2B*2) + (3B*3)+(HR*4).  I haven't previously played in a league that used total bases, but I just started in another league that uses TB and BB as separate categories. 

In my mind these are completely separate.

I guess if he can't spell his name, then he goes to the team which was going to take him next, right?  That would be me! lol  :disco:  good pick Detroit, and just in the nick of time. He was next on my board!

I am ok either way. If we do go with extensions, two thoughts:

1) I don't think players should not be able to make less than the previous year. Players in the real MLB are not going to take less money to remain with their team (except in rare circumstances) unless they have tried the free agent market.

2) Would we want to consider some kind of limitations?  I'd hate to see the free agent pool be completely closed off from players that will help improve teams.

Armchair Fantasy Baseball: Archives / Re: Salary Cap / Free Agency
« on: December 12, 2011, 08:42:14 AM »
The Consititution states that any team that started over the cap, i.e. Boston & NY, has until March 1, 2012 to comply. The provision also allows the commissioner to release player or assess other penalties to achieve a payroll under the $125 cap.

I don't know however, how that works with free agency, whether they will be allowed to bid or not?

Armchair Fantasy Baseball: Invalid Transactions / KC Royals move
« on: December 10, 2011, 03:32:32 PM »
:KC: Royals assign OF Michael Taylor to Omaha (AAA).  I assume he remains on the 40 man roster, since that is where he was in Oakland?

Thanks,
Cris

  • Brent: Greg Maddux had the best outlook.  He viewed himself as tye dealer/house and you had to beat him.  Just like in the casino, the house nearly always wins.
    May 05, 2024, 04:33:51 PM
  • Brent: He had that view b/c of his father who was a blackjack dealer in Vegas.
    May 05, 2024, 04:35:28 PM
  • Daddy: Yes @Brent!! That is it exactly. Pitching is the house & it always wins in the end.
    May 05, 2024, 05:15:18 PM
  • Daddy: There shouldn't be many innings available in FA in dynasty fantasy leagues IMO. Thats guaranteed money! To hell with High A ball.
    May 05, 2024, 05:21:23 PM
  • Daddy: Until someone starts a minor league baseball fantasy game or option. Maybe we can petition fantrax? I just dont think they will care for that.
    May 05, 2024, 05:23:07 PM
  • Daddy: Neither should we (so much). Every league i see is MLB.

  • Braves155: The problem with the minors is not the system as a whole, it is some Farm Systems are more 'elite' at being able to produce talent than others. If you look across MLB teams you can pretty easily tell the great systems from the weaker systems and talent development
    May 05, 2024, 05:57:14 PM
  • Braves155: With regard to pitching in the Minors...there is  method to the madness. It is all about what you make of it tho. I agree that it can seem certain type arms in the minors are a dime a dozen
    May 05, 2024, 06:02:39 PM
  • Daddy: Mr Braves you are my guy. There isnt anything wrong with minor league studs or flops. I get it in REAL baseball.
    May 05, 2024, 06:20:28 PM
  • Daddy: This is fantasy baseball. We dont generate revenue selling prospects and merchandising. Our top farms dont get a write up in Sports Illustrated.
    May 05, 2024, 06:22:29 PM
  • Daddy: Load up on MLB guys, then near MLB guys, and only then is the quality of your prospects matter. Ya dig ;)

  • Brent: I over value minors to a fault, but I am softening on that stance.

  • Daddy: 23,575 views.. in a couple months. What am i talking about? "One" of the NHL LIVE sign up sheet.
    May 06, 2024, 07:06:21 PM
  • Daddy: See for yourself [link]
    May 06, 2024, 07:06:43 PM
  • Daddy: Now either there are a lot of people copying our style or trying to learn it.. or possibly there is just that much interest by visitors. Maybe both. Either way, we got to be doing something right. The NHL LIVE season, will start with an amateur draft.
    May 06, 2024, 07:08:56 PM
  • Daddy: Hard as it is to believe. There are a couple Franchises still available. See for yourself what all the fuss is about.
