Fantasy RBI League

[AlecTrevylan006]

I'm in... gotta find time to look over stuff first and make horrible draft choices.

Drafting by correct position would add a new dimension to fantasy RBI.

I have done this and it does make things more interesting.  I wouldn't recommend getting specific with the outfielders though, just infielders.

If more specific (but not too specific) is the order of the day we might do 2 corner infielders and 2 middle infielders.

I think the first season actually had specific positions (not sure about the OF, but I'm pretty sure it did for IF).

Or maybe this post was just making a reference to ryno's picking four outfielders in the first five or six rounds of the last draft.

I have no idea what the rules are for this.  Someone please link to a reminder, or post a summary for me.

Apparently you guys missed a post in which I quoted Fighton's rules...dorks. Nothing changes except for the starting pitcher rule.


Again...your starting line-up shall consist of three OFs, four IFs, and a C, and your bench can be any four players.
2 starting pitchers
2 Relievers[/b]
A starting pitcher (sp or rp) may not start in consecutive games. You may use any pitcher in your rotation to start a game.

Attached is an excel file of the players and their positions. Learn it, Know it, Live it.


The draft order will be announced on Thursday. The Draft shall begin on Friday at noon EST...

And start thinking about your team names. And if you want to bitch about the Empire's press releases, do it now...cause there will be a weekly press release coming from the Empire. And their will be a RBI Fantasy League Weekly magazine that I will post...and I will do the stats.

Basically, you draft an entire RBI-size roster (8 starting position players, 4 bench position players, 2 starting pitchers, 2 relief pitchers) from the pool of players in RBI.  The drafted teams are put into a ROM with the same ratings they have in the game, and they play against each other in "Watch Mode".  It's like fantasy baseball if you could make the teams actually play each other, rather than just accumulating stats.

Thanks for the help Beef.

My bad to the newcomers. I assumed you guys knew the rules and how it works.

I want to add that you can make your own line up from week to week...you are the manager and owner of your team. There will be 13 games and two divisions as before when Fighton was commissioner.

Also, one more change for this year. TRADES! The first three weeks, there will be no trades. Then there will be a 2 week trading deadline.

Any other questions?

[Attezz]

Why haven't you started the draft yet?

Why haven't you started the draft yet?

Formalities young one...formalities

I'm preparing, and there are a couple of other members who wish to have the time to prepare.

This will be my last response to your question. Thursday=draft order announced, Friday= draft begins.

[ryno]

I drafted 4 OF'ers because of Pedro.  I think I wanted him as a 1B and he didn't qualify.

[nomaaa]

Let's run the team together, Nacho.  Our team name can be The Odd Couple.  Or, The Odd, Sexy Couple.

[ryno]

My team will be the Mulatobama Muslims

My two colors will be brown and white.

[AlecTrevylan006]

I'm willing to team up with somebody if they're willing to do oall the work.

Team name should be the Awesome Badasses, white (pale) guys dressed in all black.
