Re: CT Fantasy Baseball - Interested?
I haven’t missed a live draft in a while, but you can always trade your way into a team more to your liking… heck, I don’t think I’ve ever left a live draft w/o a few players I didn’t really wantBoooyah wrote: ↑10 Mar 2024 08:13 amYeah, I just looked at the yahoo rankings.

I’ve found the lists on the the players page ARE the rankings. AFAIK the pre-draft rankings do nothing… haven’t found a way to even make them visible during a live mock draft.DJ Davis wrote: ↑10 Mar 2024 11:19 amDang, you’re right. I’ve been looking through the players page on the league recently, thinking those were the rankings. The pre-draft rankings are completely different than that.Quincy Varnish wrote: ↑10 Mar 2024 03:03 amWord of caution - just looked at Yahoo’s pre-draft rankings, and they are completely screwed.

Yahoo has been my preference for live draft & trade rotisserie for a very long time.

Not sure about 6x6, but AOF managed to find some 15-team mocks on fantasy pros.mattmitchl44 wrote: ↑10 Mar 2024 13:32 pm It's almost impossible to find a mock draft with 15 teams and our 6x6 matrix.
Should be interesting to see exactly how this plays out.
I think the mix of people we have involved could make the draft a bit unpredictable… yes, it will be interesting.

They will be draftable. I’ve noticed some other omissions from their pre-draft rankings, but they’re on all their other lists and in the draft room.

I whiffed badly on 3B (Michael Busch...
) and I think my rotation is an absolute boom or bust.
First time drafting in a league this big, I feel pretty good.
