Desipio 2011 Fantasy Baseball Keeper League Smorgasborgasm

[PenPho]

2 weeks until pitchers and catchers, meaning that Yahoo is going to open up fantasy baseball soon.

So, fuck it...

Keepers (assuming 2010 rules in place-where we have a 2-round bump from draft and waivers start with round 13):
Round 1. Tulo - pending where my draft pick is in the round (meaning that if I have the 1-3 pick in the first round, I'm not keeping Tulo).
Round 7. Max Scherzer
Round 10. Shin-Soo Choo
Round 11: Jose Bautista
Round 12: Delmon Young
Round 13: Carlos Santana
Round 14: Huston Street

[J. Walter Weatherman]

pending where my draft pick is in the round (meaning that if I have the 1-3 pick in the first round, I'm not keeping Tulo).

Last year we drafted in reverse order from where we finished in 2009.

That would make this year's draft order:

1 Gil
2 BC
3 billp73*
4 TDubbs
5 TEvans*
6 BigDrinky
7 Yeti
8 RV
9 Simmer
10 JD
11 The Jeff*
12 ChuckD
13 PenFoe
14 Thrill

I think Billp73 is LDA.

One douchebag steps forward.

Is there somewhere to get last year's draft and rosters? The site seems to have no link to anything.

The Jeff is Mr. Speed.  He's like my nemesis and stuff.  He's like me in every way except that he usually beats me in these fantasy leagues. 

Is that what a nemesis is?

Also, Pen or someone else or both or multiples, I'll probably need some assistance loading the keepers this year.  I've got a 1 year old and my turn came up to commish this other keeper league.  Plus, I'm trying to get into yoga, sooooo....there's that, too.

You don't know what "nemesis" means?

Happy to help.

Just start the league when it's open and cede over commish duties.
We did the same thing in hockey with Pex and Gil.

This will end well.

Last year, I picked Jacoby Ellsbury in the third round and Carlos Lee in the fourth.

The lesson is, as always, I'm an idiot.

Keeping 42% of a squad (11/26) that finished 58.5 games out of first is a recipe for success.

*And...the fantasy bullying begins.

That's true Pen, but then again we all continue to cheer for a team that hasn't won anything for 102 years. Hope springs eternal my friend, hope springs eternal!!!

When you can keep a guy with a .667 OPS last year (Lifetime .742) and has hit approximately 20 homeruns and 145 RBIs over a 4 year career (of full-time duty), you gotta make that move. (Skip Schumaker in case anyone is wondering)
