If Soriano is listed on the fantasy roster as a second baseman, and my inept computer drafter drafted him as my starting second baseman, can I use him a second baseman even if he's not actually playing second base?

Yes, Soriano should be 2B eligable for the season.

I'll just cut this cobversation off right now... Yahoo sets the position requirements, they sometime do so arbitrarily, and you can't change them.

|
I thought we had a 2-player DL list for this league? I need to place Nomar on the DL and pick up a shortstop to use until he comes back. how do I add a shortstop without having to "drop" a player?

|
You need to put Nomar on the DL first, but otherwise you should be able to do that.

Has anuone ever been in a league where your team is set for the week and can only be changed every Monday,it's bullshit, I didn't know it was going to like that,it's no fun at all, tonight I have 4 players and no pitchers going.

That's what ours is like (at home) it seems like a pain at first, but since it's so low maintenence, you come to appreciate it.

|
I prefer weekly transactions -- let's you set your team for the coming week and not worry about scouring the wires every day to make sure that you have every possible favorable matchup in the active lineup for that night, or kicking yourself because there was a day game you forgot about and you didn't make the move you wanted to make in time, etc.

i set it for daily because that was the vote.

What am I doing wrong? I cut two pitchers from my roster, then added two, but when I try to submit changes, I get a "this position has already been filled" error message. But it hasn't. I have two big blanks in my starting pitcher rotation.

OK, now I have three starting pitchers, one relief pitcher, three guys labeled "pitcher," and three guys labeled "bench," one of whom I'd like to put on the DL but can't because that would give me too many DL players, even tho I only have one at the moment. I can't upgrade any of my "pitchers" to the starting rotation. I am getting hopelessly confused.

The DL only has room for one, evidently.
|
| TheOldMole Apr 20 2006 12:16 AM |
|
So it's a three-man rotation?
|
| smg58 Apr 20 2006 06:27 AM |
|
Not necessarily. You can move guys on and off the bench on a daily basis, enabling you to bench your starters on days when they don't pitch but keep your relievers active at all times. Remember, the stats for anybody designated 'P' count just as much as the others.

Ulp -- then I really have to keep on top of this every day, or risk being so far down in the standings that only Willets Point and Willpie are looking up at me.

lol. Just look for the ^ symbol next to the pitchers name. That means he's starting that day. You can use the dates above your roster on the MY TEAM page and set that up in advance (make sure you hit submit for any future changes to be locked in), if you dont want to do it on a daily basis. However many starters you have, thats your rotation. You have to rotate them into active slots from the bench on the days they pitch.

I keep forgetting I have a team.

What to do with Cameron? Activate him and put Beltran on reserves? Is Beltran gonna play this week?
|
| Nymr83 Apr 23 2006 06:34 PM |
|
if those were my only 2 choices i'd reserve Beltran for Cameron this week, that being said I'd prefer an alternative to both for the week.
|
| cooby Apr 23 2006 09:07 PM |
|
Well, last week I reserved Renteria and Trot Nixon, (guessed wrong on him, didn't I?) I activated both of them for this week.

It took me a while to get into this, but now that I'm taking it seriously, upgrading my team, making clever strategic moves, I'm plummeting straight to the bottom.

Hey I just realized there is an "Other Leagues" thread. Sorry folks, I will confine my bemoaning of Beltran there from now on
|
| Zvon Aug 22 2006 03:51 PM |

Your certainly not bemoaning now, are ya? Ive never done a rotisserie league before this CPF one. I was looking over the rules this week and...... am I to understand there are no playoffs in rotisserie?
|

Correct, which means I'll be watching myself and abogdan swap 1st and 2nd until the last day of the season and hoping I take the lead on the right day.

Oh-your Heltons Meat. I lost track,lol. 17 teams and no playoffs-- YOW! - that sucks. My head to head league has top 6 team playoff spots. Ive been battling to stay in the top 6 in the CPF one, lmao. Well, Ill be happy if my team can close with over 100 points. (Playoffs woulda been a nice payoff tho.) And Ive been able to study the dredges of the major and minor leagues and know way more than I should or need to know about baseball players. That should come in handy in my H2H league(I hope! 2nd place, 5 games out there) Good Luck Todd Heltons Meat--and you too, abogdan. And Vick Sage could make a run--good luck to him too.

Wait, are you guys saying I'm not still in this thing?
|
| Zvon Aug 22 2006 07:43 PM |

|
Technically you are but it will be the comeback of the century. So, good luck to you too.

Nope :) What a difference four months makes. In more ways than I can count.

I went from 14th to 3rd in the month of June, and abogdan had an amazing July (and has managed to hold on to the SB lead despite dealing Reyes, which I didn't think was possible), so big moves can happen. It just gets harder as the season goes on. As for me, I was thinking there was a playoff like Zvon, so my goal was a top 6 finish. I'll still consider that a good year, especially given how bad my first two months were. More than that would be nice, of course...
