I decided to change the scoring categories for 2009.  I was unhappy with the current settings as the integrity of the game could possibly be ruined if a GM manipulated the stats by plugging only their best stars in the lineup.  Granted, you must have players filled in the active role, but you could theoretically put your few best players in there plus a bunch of guys who are not playing in the majors.

There is a necessity for recognizing playing time.  However, I did not want stats that are dependent upon teammates' performances such as R, RBI, W, L, SV, HLD.  With that said, I still wanted defense to be recognized.  I also rethought about K/9 and how this shouldn't be a stat.  There are quality pitchers that do not get many strikeouts.  On offense, there are quality players that do not steal bases either, so I removed that as a solo stat.

I have set it to be a 3x3 weighted H2H matchup where 50% of the points are countable stats that you need your players to play in games and the other 50% are points earned from performance ratios.

Position Players
RC (3)* - Runs Created = TB*(H+BB)/PA <- This is actually a stat that increases with game play, and is not a ratio... take a look at career runs created leaders
RF (2) - Range Factor = (PO + A)/GP <- The factor combined PUTOUTS and ASSISTS
OPS (1) - On-Base + Slugging Percentage = OBP + SLUG

Pitchers
IP (3) - Innings Pitched <- One of the very few things that Fantrax does not have is a minimum IP setting for H2H, this will ensure that people play their pitchers.
WHIP (2) - Walks + Hits / Innings Pitched  <- The most widely used pitching sabermetric
K/BB (1) - Strikeouts / Walks <- The Greg Madduxes of the world make it by keeping their walks to a minimum, this stat usually tells the tale of a false ERA just as much as WHIP

12 points for the taking, 6 on each side, and 6 that are ratios and 6 that are stats that increase with time
*There are a few different Runs Created formulas out there, the one I show is the most simple, but another variation applies stolen bases and another one applies HBP and GIDP on top of that.  I emailed Fantrax to find out which one they do use.

I trimmed the pool down a bit, interesting results so far may keep the 2010 stats reasonable close to the 2009 stats.

I emailed both, asking them to sign up here, read over the rules and confirm their interest.  Thanks guys.

My biggest thing would be to get 30 commited GM's!

We are currently at 28 with the Astros and Mariners open, but it is possible the GM of the Dodgers will be stepping down already.  If you know of anyone that would be interested, then please refer them over this way.

Well, it is in my interest to keep a good amount of defensive oriented statistics in this league.  The Washington Nationals are a prime example of a team with excellent hitters, but whose porous defense aids their horrible pitching to produce the worst record in baseball.  Defensive stats (FLD%, E, PO, A) will also be considered each year.

Ideally, I would like to come to a conclusion as to what the stat categories are to be by 2010.

Please give details regarding your answer selection.  This poll will most likely affect 2010 scoring.

    April 26, 2024, 10:40:41 AM
  • Daddy: Raiders, Atlanta both should have traded back if they were gonna do what they did. IMO
    April 26, 2024, 10:41:23 AM
  • Daddy: Atlanta could have fleeced Minny and let them draft JJ #6 then still get Penix before Denver/LV
    April 26, 2024, 10:42:24 AM

  • BayAreaBallers: I honestly wouldn't have minded pearsall but I saw him as a Rd 2 target not Rd 1. Great to see another former alumni join the niners.
    April 26, 2024, 10:48:21 AM

    April 26, 2024, 02:25:27 PM
  • Daddy: Their WRs need contracts and Deebo has been used a lot for a guy his size already.
    April 26, 2024, 02:26:18 PM
  • Daddy: They cant and wont keep them all beyond this year.
    April 26, 2024, 02:27:17 PM
  • Daddy: Plenty of Defense left. Only 9 guys on D got drafted last night. NONE of them will be 1st rd picks in LIVE. In fact i dont think a D player gets drafted at all in LIVE till round 3.
    April 26, 2024, 02:29:01 PM
  • Daddy: If you want a S or CB @BAB your Niners will get one.

    April 26, 2024, 07:35:23 PM
  • Daddy: If you got ANY extra loot laying around. Pick #33 will definitely be a WR. Probably got to wager $5 to win $1 by now but the line was -400 last i looked.
    April 26, 2024, 07:36:50 PM
  • Daddy: #33 + WR = $$$

  • Jwalkerjr88: Nothing like having some depth guys on your NFL Live roster you believe in and watching his team draft a player at his position. Sometimes it happens twice. Stay strong NFL Live GMs lol

  • Daddy: Dont think of it that way. So many guys get hurt. The NFL moves so fast. Think of your players as commodity even if they are backups or rookies that arent playing much.
    Yesterday at 06:16:20 PM
  • Daddy: Any player that plays at all has LIVE value. It's the GMs here that determine what that value means to them or is worth in a trade.
    Yesterday at 06:17:45 PM
  • Daddy: If a guy is on your team and he is also on an NFL roster. He has LIVE value.

  • Daddy: How much do you love sports? How much do you love "your sport". Do you feel you could GM a franchise?
    Yesterday at 10:30:28 PM
  • Daddy: LIVE is a free league, better than any money league. That tests your ability to build a franchise. In a simulation setting more realistic than anything you are going to find.

  • Daddy: If you like sports and like dynasty. And you arent in LIVE... You aint hurting me none. You just wont know how good you really are. Pretending to be the best, isnt being the best.
