I would like to officially register my interest.

I think triples and all the fielding categories possible would be the best way to go!

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Tuesday, 18 January 2005 22:21 (twenty years ago)

This will be my 3rd (!!!) season as Commissioner. One change I would like to propose would be the addition of one more disabled list position, ideally one spot for a position player and one spot for a pitcher... but I'm not sure if that option is available.

― gygax! (gygax!), Tuesday, 18 January 2005 22:23 (twenty years ago)

Consider my interest registered.

I haven't done fantasy baseball in years (and never on ILB). Please don't haze the rookie!

― MindInRewind (Barry Bruner), Tuesday, 18 January 2005 22:28 (twenty years ago)

I'm going to beat you all, except for a couple of you.

― Leeeter van den Hoogenband (Leee), Tuesday, 18 January 2005 22:48 (twenty years ago)

Can we include sacrifice bunts?

― Leeeter van den Hoogenband (Leee), Tuesday, 18 January 2005 22:56 (twenty years ago)

I'm in, but I won a rotisserie league last year so I'm guaranteed to finish dead last. I'll draft Barry Bonds and watch him get arrested that night.

What about stat-geek heavy categories, if Yahoo has them for their cheap leagues? I can't convince any of the old people in my local rotisserie leagues to give them a try, but this crowd seems more hip. (daddy-o)

― milozauckerman (miloaukerman), Tuesday, 18 January 2005 23:03 (twenty years ago)

Outfield assists - fuck yeah!

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Tuesday, 18 January 2005 23:51 (twenty years ago)

Count me in! Last year was a bummer - my modem died halfway through last season, which is why my team was neglected. I also couldn't get into the draft. This year will be different, as I have a new laptop & high-speed connection, so I'll have more time to devote to it. -KK

FIELDING PERCENTAGE SUCKS FREEZE POPS, AS DO MOST FIELDING STATS

That said, I'm probably not going to participate this year. Also, you knew I was going to say that anyway.

― David R. (popshots75`), Wednesday, 19 January 2005 00:08 (twenty years ago)

About the fielding percentage, that is.

― David R. (popshots75`), Wednesday, 19 January 2005 00:09 (twenty years ago)

yes, outfield assists. i am in. maybe k digging chick too.

Oh, fuck me, I'm in. (I do this every year / month.) When I offend and become judgemental (as is my wont), I will do so w/ a smidge of class and a buttload of fart jokes.

― David R. (popshots75`), Wednesday, 19 January 2005 05:37 (twenty years ago)

Ha ha- fistpumps! I would seriously love a league based on the most arbitrary/ridiculous stats possible.

FANTASY NEWS
Names, league marks will be sublicensed

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
By Darren Rovell
ESPN.com

Major League Baseball and the Major League Baseball Players Association awarded exclusive rights to the league's fantasy games to Major League Baseball Advanced Media, the league-owned arm that controls MLB.com, for the next five years.

The deal, valued by the league at more than $50 million, would not result in MLB.com being the sole holder of fantasy rights in the future, according to Bob Bowman, chief executive of MLB Advanced Media. The organization, he said, will sublicense the league marks and players names to other organizations, as the MLBPA has done in the past.

Bowman said it was too early to tell if fantasy fees for games on MLB.com will increase as a result of the deal.

"Our goal is to increase the number of people who can play fantasy, increase the number of games that we consider fantasy and just get more people spending time on fantasy than we currently have," Bowman said. "That could be more licensees. It could be fewer licensees. It's really going to depend on what the potential licensees want to do in terms of trying to augment and enhance what is already a great product."

Bowman said he was seeking proposals from the organizations that previously have held fantasy rights with the MLBPA.

"If they are going to license fantasy games to those that had the license before this deal was struck, it will be business as usual and the industry will continue to grow," said Greg Ambrosius, president of the Fantasy Sports Trade Association (FSTA), which is made up of 182 companies who work in the industry. "If only a couple companies are involved, they will stymie the business."

How much an interested company is willing to pay could be dependent on the legal foundation concerning the rights of companies to use the players' names without the license.

Judy Heeter, director of business affairs and licensing for the MLBPA, said these rights belong to the union.

"Publicity rights of the players have been recognized as belonging to the Players Association for something over 40 years in a whole series of reported decisions and anything, including statistics that makes those players personalities recognizable or identifiable to the public, is legally protected," Heeter said.

But those in the industry maintain that this is a huge gray area. Using stats for fantasy purposes could constitute First Amendment rights that are no different from a boxscore in a newspaper.

One court case, NBA v. Motorola and STATS Inc., backs up this opinion. In 1997, a U.S. Court of Appeals ruled that the federal copyright statute prohibits the ownership of factual data. There has been no rulings to the contrary over the past eight years, said Paul Levy, who was co-counsel to STATS Inc. in the case.

"There are a line of cases that suggest that any personality is protected from an implied endorsement or suggested affiliation without their permission," Levy said. "But that is different from the recitation of a statistic that has no meaning unless that statistic is tied to the name of the player who generated that statistic."

The fantasy rights that MLB Advanced Media awards to licensees will not include the rights to San Francisco Giants slugger Barry Bonds, who could break the all-time home run record this upcoming year. MLB.com is the only licensed fantasy product that has included Bonds' name and that will continue to be the case going forward, according to Bonds' marketing agent Jeff Bernstein.

According to FSTA estimates, more than 15 million Americans play fantasy sports. Baseball has the highest cost per consumer. In 2003, the average player of fantasy baseball games spent $179 to participate compared to the $161 that players spent on fantasy football games and the $118 spent on fantasy basketball games.

Fantasy baseball is celebrating its 25th anniversary this month. The concept was born in January 1980 when a group of media members convened at a restaurant in Manhattan called La Rotisserie Francaise. It was for this reason that the fantasy game was originally called "rotisserie."

"I'm staggered how big this industry has become," said Steve Wulf, executive editor of ESPN The Magazine, who joined the league in the second year when he was writing for Sports Illustrated. "The seminal moment came in 1982, when I was at Shea Stadium. This big shadow approached from behind me and asked me how my rotisserie team was doing. It was (Atlanta Braves outfielder) Dale Murphy. He said he read the book I wrote about it."

― gygax! (gygax!), Wednesday, 19 January 2005 20:17 (twenty years ago)

i'm in again, unless it gets way too crowded and people who really want in get pissed off. i kinda sucked last year, but i blame a lot of that on several factors:
1. it was my first time playing rotisserie
2. i couldn't make the draft, as i was on a plane to denmark
3. richie sexson
4. a lot of you guys are pretty on-the-ball about picking up waivers and free agents

i actually won my other league, based on straight point accumulation. so i guess it evens out. (i won mostly cause' i got mad hits [like rod carew], thanks to guys like ichiro, juan pierre, melvin mora and miggie tejada). also, it didn't hurt that my on-the-ball-ness was helped by copping moves from the especially attentative on ilb.

i took a year off because i was gone all summer. and, uh, last summer i guess i just didn't get around to it. so two years off, maybe? i don't remember. whatever, just let me play dude.

sorry leglo, i added you to the list.

― jaymc (jaymc), Thursday, 20 January 2005 17:01 (twenty years ago)

I have signed k-red to my coaching staff. The contract includes designating several roster spots for mediocre middle relivers deemed HOTTT and/or Cubbies.

Also there have been whispers about how the commish is going to enforce the new drug testing policies.

― bnw (bnw), Thursday, 20 January 2005 20:16 (twenty years ago)

We have smart folk here - it shouldn't be a problem to put together a formula that'll calculate a fair player-balance ratio based on A) a hitter's / pitcher's previous performance, B) current performance, C) weight gained over the offseason, and D) hat size.

― David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 20 January 2005 20:22 (twenty years ago)

if you mean "hat" size, dave, i'm way ahead of you

― Jams Murphy (ystrickler), Thursday, 20 January 2005 20:30 (twenty years ago)

We have to get Doc Morbius involved to have a team, so he can check his SABR theories in our fantasy league. Besides that being a NY Met fan he could come up with a funny team name dealing with Pedro and Anna Benson.

― Earl Nash (earlnash), Thursday, 20 January 2005 23:28 (twenty years ago)

dude, read the lead post!!!

NO HAY ORQUESTA

i can't go to the league despite being logged into yahoo!.

― hstencil (hstencil), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 20:56 (twenty years ago)

There was a problem:
• You are not allowed to view this page because you are not in this league. (Error #152)

― hstencil (hstencil), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 20:59 (twenty years ago)

You have to join the league before you can get into the league page, I think.

― David R. (popshots75`), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 21:15 (twenty years ago)

Assuming you haven't joined the league.

― David R. (popshots75`), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 21:15 (twenty years ago)

uh, i don't know how to do that. i tried joining and it didn't work.

― hstencil (hstencil), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 21:22 (twenty years ago)

Go to this URL:

http://baseball.fantasysports.yahoo.com/

You should have the option to join a league or create a team somewhere on that page (probably in BIG BOLD LETTERS as part of some picture). From there, use the League ID # (43955) & password (rickey) when prompted, and you should be good to go.

― David R. (popshots75`), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 21:35 (twenty years ago)

it's hard to find, damn yahoo!, but i got in.

― hstencil (hstencil), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 21:41 (twenty years ago)

I'm so doing this.

― Leeeter van den Hoogenband (Leee), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 22:05 (twenty years ago)

Except I'm lazy and stupid. Does anyone want to tell me the answers?

― Leeeter van den Hoogenband (Leee), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 22:10 (twenty years ago)

1. Felipe Alou's nickname is "Ol' Rough'n'Ready."
2. It is exactly 207 feet to the stands in right field, and another 47 feet into McCovey Cove.
3. Bobby Thomson = syphilis; Sal Maglie = chlymidia; Eddie Stanky = auto-erotic asphyxiation.
4. A.J. Pierszczyzkinski, last year, in the locker room before the game; 13 feet, 3 1/2 inches.

― The Obligatory Sourpuss (Begs2Differ), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 22:22 (twenty years ago)

For the essay question ("Which two MLB teams (not including the San Francisco Giants) made the most favorable moves for their team in the off-season this year? Explain why. (150 words or less)"), I'm going to say the Expos!

― Leeeter van den Hoogenband (Leee), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 22:24 (twenty years ago)

dude if you say "The Brewers" you'll get indie cred!

― The Obligatory Sourpuss (Begs2Differ), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 22:25 (twenty years ago)

but you'll probably not win, so don't say it

― The Obligatory Sourpuss (Begs2Differ), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 22:26 (twenty years ago)

Expos' most favorable move this year = ending their existance as the Expos = THEY WIN!

Matt loses points for mispelling Ksychewsksyski on #4.

― David R. (popshots75`), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 23:22 (twenty years ago)

why can't i find cubbie ramirez in the pre-draft rankings? Also, is there anyone retired/severely injured I need to exclude from the auto-draft? last year i drafted nolan ryan or someone like that.

(can't make the live draft since I will be at spring training *brag* *brag*)

― bnw (bnw), Wednesday, 16 March 2005 02:54 (twenty years ago)

My fancy Earth 2 roster (in a 10-team 5x5 roto head-to-head league) includes Johan Santana, Curt Schilling, Bobby Abreu, Eric Chavez, Justin Morneau, Brad Lidge, & a bunch of other fun stuff. (Of course, it being a 10-team league, there's still plenty of people left on waivers - I think Barry Bonds is available.)

― David R. (popshots75`), Wednesday, 16 March 2005 15:46 (twenty years ago)

Also, in case you were wondering - yes, in a league where AVG and RBIs and Ws are king, I was using BP's PECOTA projections to draft in the later rounds.

― David R. (popshots75`), Wednesday, 16 March 2005 15:49 (twenty years ago)

My starting roster (off the top of my head):

C: Jason Kendall
1B: Mark Teixera / Justin Morneau
2B: Jose Vidro
SS: Bobby Crosby / Khalil Greene
3B: Eric Chavez
OF: Bobby Abreu
OF: Jason Bay
OF: Richard Hidalgo / Mike Cameron / Teixeira (if he's eligible!)
UTIL: Justin Morneau / someone else

SP: Curt Schilling
SP: Johan Santana
RP: Brad Lidge
RP: Braden Looper
P: Miguel Batista (for SVs) / someone else (for Ws)

― David R. (popshots75`), Wednesday, 16 March 2005 15:54 (twenty years ago)

Batista is going to be in the J's starting rotation.
Or at least that's where he's beginning the season at.

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Wednesday, 16 March 2005 16:16 (twenty years ago)

I heard Batista's gonna be the closer! The fudge!

― David R. (popshots75`), Wednesday, 16 March 2005 16:30 (twenty years ago)

Was there a thread to discuss which stats we're going to track?

― MindInRewind (Barry Bruner), Friday, 18 March 2005 19:59 (twenty years ago)

You're looking at it dude!

Same stats as last year + wild pitches I think.

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Friday, 18 March 2005 20:42 (twenty years ago)

gonna miss the draft but i did my pre-ranking.

― hstencil (hstencil), Friday, 18 March 2005 21:55 (twenty years ago)

Same stats as last year + wild pitches I think.

OK, that's what I figured.
So these are the stats that are listed right now on the rosters (just to clarify, since I wasn't in the league last year)?

No JETER FACTOR :( ?

― MindInRewind (Barry Bruner), Friday, 18 March 2005 22:13 (twenty years ago)

Gonna miss the draft, too (for SLINT!), but I think I'll let Yahoo! job me & see if my awesome managerial skillz can overcome getting rogered by a crap algorithm.

― David R. (popshots75`), Saturday, 19 March 2005 00:21 (twenty years ago)

Actually, I mitigated the chance of being jobbed by removing any no-hit catcher / crap pitcher / Yankee from my rankings.

― David R. (popshots75`), Saturday, 19 March 2005 02:17 (twenty years ago)

can somebody list the statistical categories here so that there's no confusion? (i.e. mine)

― MindInRewind (Barry Bruner), Saturday, 19 March 2005 03:23 (twenty years ago)

R H HR RBI SB CS BB HBP K FPCT AVG OBP SLG OPS

― Leeeter van den Hoogenband (Leee), Saturday, 19 March 2005 06:00 (twenty years ago)

OK, I found them now. And the pitching stats are:

IP W SV HR BB HBP K HLD ERA WHIP K/BB K/9 (+WP, supposedly?)

― MindInRewind (Barry Bruner), Saturday, 19 March 2005 17:53 (twenty years ago)

Oh, hooray! Fielding percentage, my favorite stat!!

See some of youz tonight.

― Shatterproof Glass (dymaxia), Sunday, 20 March 2005 17:46 (twenty years ago)

Oh, fickle fuckery. Becuase I'm all hack wheeze cough, I WILL be available for the draft, NOT for the Slint (boo hiss!), which means A) I'll be spewing all sorts of woe-is-me bitterness in the chat room and B) I'll be making really bad draft decisions.

― David R. (popshots75`), Sunday, 20 March 2005 19:29 (twenty years ago)

amen, brother. i had the nice double whammy last year of not being able to be present AND getting the last draft pick. pretty sweet. oh, that and my best players were all injured to start the season (nomah, trot nixon & jason schmidt).

― jonathan quayle higgins (j.q. higgins), Sunday, 20 March 2005 22:32 (twenty years ago)

our family draft yesterday ended with my daughter all psyched because she got to make the last pick of the draft: COCO CRISP!

― The Obligatory Sourpuss (Begs2Differ), Sunday, 20 March 2005 23:01 (twenty years ago)

I'm picking Sean "Franken" Berry first. If that fails, Roberto Alomar.

Oh, so Yahoo! is having the fun w/ me. There's a message on the front page, saying "YOUR LEAGUE IS DRAFTING NOW!" So I'm thinking it was actually 6:45 EST, not 7:45. So I click on the link, & there's the timer ticking down. 43+ minutes and counting. EFF YOU, YAHOO!

― David R. (popshots75`), Monday, 21 March 2005 00:02 (twenty years ago)

Also, whoever changed their name to "Slint = Overrated" - you'd better be right.

I'll be quoting Slint throughout the night, BTW. Well, I'll probably just type "I MISS YOUUUUUUUU!" 76 times.

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Monday, 21 March 2005 03:30 (twenty years ago)

I need a closer too!

― MindInRewind (Barry Bruner), Monday, 21 March 2005 03:32 (twenty years ago)

I NEED A SHORTSTOP! (Maybe.) (Jose Valentin can't hit .216 again, can he?)

I can't take any more Jose, sorry. You have my sympathy.
