Title: Fantasy Baseball
Description: It's about that time
actorgersh - February 23, 2010 05:24 AM (GMT)
So spring training has started which means it's time to get the annual BOP league organized. I invited anyone who played last year to join in again. Same rules again, rotisserie scoring with the standard 5x5 categories.
The draft date is currently set for Saturday, March 20th at noon. It'll stay there unless there are multiple requests to change it. They have a new auction draft option this year but I am not familiar with it and I like the way we usually do it so I'm not going to change it.
Any questions let me know. If anyone new wants in, here is the link:
http://baseball.fantasysports.yahoo.com/league/bop2Password is "orioles".
There are 14 slots and it's first come first serve. Good luck everybody!

Thanks for organizing this again!

No problem! Yahoo makes it pretty easy to activate the same league from last year.
9 slots remaining...

I would play but there is one condition, and you would probably not agree to it. I want to field a team exclusively of Orioles.
Why bother with anyone else? Only the Os matter.
I suppose that skews the point of a fantasy team/league, but I'd hate to feel the temptation to root for anybody who played against the Os, or root against an Oriole.
So have fun.

Just posting an update that there are five slots left.

Change your draft to autodraft the Orioles in the order that they appear. Only 3 Orioles are in the top 100 players, so unless there is someone who believes the Wieters Hype, you should be able to collect the set.
Draft order:
1. Roberts
2. Markakis
3. Jones
4. Wieters
etc
Two years ago my friend created an Orioles team in a head to head league so that we'd have no bye weeks. He got everyone but Roberts who was drafted by a woman that stalks him. :lol:

10 slots have now been claimed (I love whoever named their team "Oscar Meyer Wieters"). Four to go with just under two weeks until draft day.

Andrew, if I got any Orioles player you would like and you ended with some players of my liking we could work a deal.
I was thinking on make a entire venezuelans team, but I think it better. Anyway, hope to draft as many venezolanos as I can
Good luck

I would like to join but it says your are not allowed to view that page?
"You are not allowed to view this page because you are not in this league. (Error #152)"
Sorry would be my first time in a fantasy league so I might be doing something wrong...

Figured it out. I am registered now! First fantasy league, looking forward to it!
actorgersh - March 16, 2010 02:16 AM (GMT)
Awesome, we have 13 with one slot left. It's up for grabs!
