Yahoo would not allow me to send some of you auto-invites, so please PM me (or An Old Friend) if you need a link to join up. Also, please let one of us know if you will not be joining us.

So when do we get to argue over all the changes you aren't going to make?

There have already been changes to the roster makeup.

Regarding the categories, there is still time for debate.

I would still propose a simple substitution of OBP for AVG.

If we do that, I think I’d also want to replace OPS w/ SLG.

Or, as I’ve previously suggested, rate offensive categories could represent the traditional slash line - AVG/OBP/SLG. That would push us to 7 offensive categories.

AVG
OBP
SLG
R
RBI
HR
SB

I consider that an improvement, but the pitching cats would also need a revision to 7.

I would not add a 7th offensive category, as I doubt there is an equally justifiable pitching category to add.

But you could do just:

OBP
SLG
R
RBI
HR
SB

I’m 100% against eliminating batting average.

We could add net SV+HLD, but still include SV. This way, a save would be weighted more heavily than a Hold, as it should.

So -

Hitting
AVG
OBP
SLG
R
HR
RBI
SB

Pitching
W
QS
K
SV
SV+HLD-[nonsense]
ERA
WHIP


This is the best compromise I can conjur. If you insist on killing AVG, and consider no alternatives in which it stays, I don’t think this is going anywhere…

For pitchers, we could do OBP Against or K:BB ratio. I like the first better personally… rather than holds / blown saves

Keeping it free this year

Be advised… this is a deep league -15 teams, 26-man rosters. It can be a little more time consuming than your default, 12-team Yahoo public or pay league.

You might be over qualified. Ha.
