Ditto on a friend wanting to join. As I stated in my email, he would be interested as well. I don't know which team he would prefer if the Dodgers are already spoken for, but I'm checking with him now. His email is ocnomad77@yahoo.com

My friend would like to join, a good fantasy player.  His e-mail is jimylewis@hotmail.com.  He would like the Dodgers if they are available, if not then the Mariners, then finally the Astros.  Thanks Colby.

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.

 I would do a 6x6 scoring system. The offensive stats I would like to see are AVG, OBP, SLUG, OPS, SB%, and FLD%. For pitching, I would do wins, K/9, K/BB, ERA, WHIP, and IP.

 I chose those offensive stats because I think it covers all hitters well. Some hitters hit for average, and not much else. Adam Dunn is an example of a hitter who has a terrible AVG, but has a good OBP and a good SLUG. SB% is better than SB because it measures how good you are at stealing. SB alone won;t do, since there is a cahnce that they steal alot, but also get caught alot. FLD% would be good as the defensive stat, if you want one more you can take out either AVG or OPS. I thought OPS was important because it measure how good the hitter is at his job, getting on base and hitting for power. I woud rather you take out AVG, since OBP is better at determining how often he gets on base.

 I chose those pitching stats beacuse K/9 is good to see how good the pitcher is at getting strike outs, K/BB is a measure of his control, ERA is how a measure of holding down the oppsing teams offense, WHIP is a good measure of keeping the oppsing team from getting base runners, and IP shows how long a pitcher can last. I didn't choose any realiever stats since they usually help out with the ERA, since most have awesome ERA's, K/9, K/BB, and WHIP. Those apply to all pitchers evenly. Wins I don't like as much, since it depends to much on the talent off the pitchers team  and not the talent of just the pitcher. An example of that is Dan Haren this year, but I guess it is neccasery. I would prefer a BB/9 rather than Wins, since that shows how good his control is. H/9 innings is also a good option, but that also depends on how good the defence behind the pitcher is. if he has a horrible defence, not all the plays will be made, while if a pitcher has an incredible defence behind him some hits would be taken away. That is my opinion on the scoring system for next year,

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.

In that respect, I would have no problem with those categories either.  Defense, while not in any of my current leagues, would definitely add something to the league.

My choices reflect a 6x6 format:

Hitting: R, HR, RBI, SB, AVG, OPS
Pitching: K, W, ERA, H, S, WHIP

The hitting choices offer a pretty level playing field with all hitters, and the OPS will benefit hitters who tally a lot of extra base hits and walks, a stat that is overlooked in my opinioin.

My pitching choices encompass all pitchers relatively evenly.  Holds offer an incentive to go after good relievers, not just closers, during the year.

In my opinion, negative stats aren't necessary for leagues, only positive ones.  It does give a little more strategy to the selection of players, but most managers I know feel more confident in stats that are encouraging, not discouraging.  So when it comes to hitter's K's, Losses, hits allowed, etc., I don't really appeal to them.  My two cents. :-)
