Half-Dozen Spots Remaining in SouthSideSox Ultimate Fantasy Showdown League

Here is your current roster for the yet-to-be-finalized SouthSideSox Ultimate Fantasy (baseball) Showdown

  • Myself
  • JJ -- ChiSox Examiner (UribeAuction)
  • Colin
  • U-God
  • e-gus
  • Andrew Reilly -- 35th Street Review
  • KenWo4life
  • Jim -- Sox Machine
There are 5-8 more spots open, with one reserved for WTGTD whose email address I'm lacking. (Triples, shoot me an email. I wanna chat about more than fantasy baseball.) I know I asked for those interested in joining once before, but there weren't many (maybe two besides OSFIB). This is your thread to speak up. I'll send out the rest of the invites in the next 24 hours.

And in order to fulfill my advertorial obligation, CBSsports.com Fantasy Baseball Commissioner League is the service we'll be using. They just so happen to be providing a half-off rate for SB*N members.

how did i end up with my own team?

oy vey.

I'd rather have Rios steal 50 bases than hit 50 home runs. I want production.

sick burn!

I notice you are not on the list there, noodles.
not enough free time?

Mawage.

(Think “Princess Bride”. Like I had to tell you that.)

Jim Leyritz- Didn’t like him as a player and then he killed that broad driving drunk.

If you need people

then I’d be in. I barely ever post here, though, so I should probably be at the end of the list. Just if you need someone to fill out the league. (I do stay active, though.) The addy is a yahoo one, with the handle jackiehayes2b.

by KenWo4LiFe on Mar 9, 2010 4:58 PM CST up reply actions  

Yeah... We'll change that

My first run through on points was way too heavily weighted for offense (No pitching) so I halved many of the offensive point totals, and decided not to add any.

We’re due for some tweaking

by The Cheat on Mar 9, 2010 1:01 PM CST up reply actions  

if you go .75 to match rbi

It puts Pujols as the only hitter in the 400+ club with aces Lincicum, Felix, Grienke, Verlaner and Halladay.

by e-gus on Mar 9, 2010 1:13 PM CST up reply actions  

I'm surprised I made something that close

I hadn’t actually run the numbers, just eyeballed stuff and decided I needed “about half” the offense

That seems pretty good though. With a little tweaking we’ll come up with a well-balanced league

by The Cheat on Mar 9, 2010 1:22 PM CST up reply actions  

we should probably cap the IP.

somewhere around 1500 or so.

We want the best pitching staff, not the most horses in the stable.

by e-gus on Mar 10, 2010 12:06 PM CST up reply actions  

include saves and holds

by Where Triples Go to Die on Mar 10, 2010 2:25 PM CST up reply actions  

fuck you and your capped IP.

i don’t like that.

by KenWo4LiFe on Mar 10, 2010 3:59 PM CST up reply actions  

163 * 9 = 1467

We are limited with how many AB we can get, why shouldnt we be limited with innings pitched? Especially when starting pitchers are the most valuabe position?

by e-gus on Mar 10, 2010 4:48 PM CST up reply actions  

TMI, but no one likes to cap it when they are bangin'

Anyway, if there is no cap, I look forward to seeing how your 12 man rotation and Juan Uribe lead offense does against my juggernaut.

by e-gus on Mar 10, 2010 11:55 PM CST up reply actions  

uribe had a great year last year!

he’s a top 10 pick. absolutely.

I'm a huge fantasy football fan

Is this free or will there be a fee? If it’s free and you need someone, send me an electronic mail.

You can give me spot to someone else. The scoring will be a little too out of the norm for me. Thanks for invite though.

I can handle it

I just don’t want it so drastically different from my other 4 leagues. More work for nothing. My social life IS starting to rebound.
