You guys wanted a $20 H2H league with 10-12 people, by God here it is!

Buy-in: It's.....twenty dollars

Draft Date: Monday, March 27th 6:30 PM Pacific. I picked this date and time out of thin air, it can be changed if need be.

Categories: Standard 5x5, we can change this to some kind of 6x6 if someone has a better idea. I am open to anything that's not too bizarre.

Playoffs: 4 teams if we have 10 players. 6 if we have 12

Other non-standard Yahoo things: I made "add injured players from waivers or FA to IR" to YES and I made the playoff tiebreaker "best regular season record vs. opponent" rather than "higher seed"

max acquistions in a week is 6 and min. IP is 7, this can also be changed if someone has a better idea.

Want an invite? Post here or PM me and I'll PM or email the link.

Other league I'm in is 6x6 OPS/WHIP which seems fine if other people are into it.

WHIP is already a category though. Would need another P category to even it out.

Would we want AVG and OPS? Or one or the other?

Also, how do we stand on using QS rather than W's? I think I lean QS, but I don't have a real strong opinion on it.

Oh yeah sorry QS was the additional category in my league :downs:

I'd rather have OPS and just nix averages since it's essentially the same stat, one just tells you less about a player. I was in a league with QS and Wins at the same time and didn't mind it much.

If we're replacing average, I'd rather have OBP and SLG as separate categories than just OPS tbh

Oh also I'm gonna be that guy and ask if we can move the draft, either the day before or after would work fine, but I have a concert to go to the night of the 22nd. However I also don't get out of work until 6 so could we push the time to 7 too?

I'll keep thinking about the stats, you guys keep posting suggestions. One way would be to take Teemu's idea of nix AVG and add OBP and SLG and then add one more Pitching category, either Holds or QS. I seems to me that having QS and Ws would overpower top-tier starters too much, but maybe I'm wrong. You guys know more than me.

I can move the day to Tuesday 3/21 or Weds 3/29, that doesn't matter this far out. This is at 6 PM Pacific though. Are you on the West Coast?

I like Teemu's idea. It gives us an extra batting statistic and lets us differentiate between sluggers and on base pros. I also like Wednesday still cus I coach on Tuesday and Thursday nights.

I'd say do OBP and SLG instead of average, like Teemu suggested, and add Holds. It makes relievers more useful on the whole.

Also I'd rather do a draft on a Tuesday if possible. I can do pretty much any day - knowing this far in advance, at least - except for Thursday, but Tuesday works better than Wednesday.

Alright everyone who posted should have received an invite via PM. If you didn't, it wasn't intentional! We should have 12 teams if everyone I PM'd signs up.

How about a Monday for the draft? People seem to have various conflicts on Tuesday, Weds, and Thurs.

Hey, I'm sorry but I backed out. It's just that I realized it's highly unlikely that I can commit to a specific time in advance since my wife is almost 9mo pregnant. I hope that doesn't inconvenience anyone, hopefully you can get a replacement.
