ok, well, maybe we DO have another vote that needs to be taken!

OBP gaining steam! lol

yea, a simple OBP for AVG swap shouldnt be difficult....

I'm for OBP over AVG also.

In on OBP.

Bump.

yea, I would like it as close to Opening Day as possible. that would be ideal.

we still need to hammer out the "moves" issue. need more input on that.

is there any other issue that concerns anyone ?

Ill be out of the country from 3/4-3/11.

I can't do the draft on the 19th.

RE: moves...I'm fine for a season limit but against weekly limit. Whatever we had last year is fine.

if we do weekly my vote is for 4 per week.

I think last year was a season limit so we'll go weekly this year.

And the discussion is for 3 or 4 moves per week. There are 24 possible weeks in the fantasy baseball season. 3 people last year had more than 70 moves. The 13 other teams had under 63. 11 under 51 moves (so essentially ON AVERAGE 11 out of the 16 of us could have survived with 2 moves per week). 3 x 24 = 72. The max last year was 75. 4 x 24 = 96. Sort of defeats the purpose and makes this worse than last year. So ultimately if you use this common sense, 3 moves is the way to go. If you want to sign players to load up on certain categories then you'll vote 4 per week. If you don't like the weekly limits then you'll probably go 4 as well but feel free to abstain from voting.

Seems like you guys want OBP. Fine. Keep working on a date, hopefully someone can give me an idea of what seems to meet most people's needs.

4 per week. I don't normally make a ton of moves, but I like the option to do so being there.

As for draft date, anything should work, but I'd request it not being during tourney games (Any Mon-Wed, I guess).

why are we going to penalize teams for actually wanting to make moves? that sort of baffles me.

so, most of the league doesn't care about making moves - that is their fault. I (and a few others) enjoy doing it. I am not in 74 leagues. I am in 1 - this one. making moves is fun and it also helps improve my team every year. every year I pretty much only end up with maybe 3 original guys from my original drafted team.... (it seemed to work out pretty well for me last year if I might add!)

it seems silly to penalize people for wanting to have fun and also really try to improve their teams. I dont think making it 4 instead of 3 per week would ruin the experience for anyone.

just my humble opinion of course

4 per week is fine for me.
