Matrix Fantasy Baseball!!!

[USSAmerica]

Spring Training has already started! Paul, where's our thread for Matrix Fantasy Baseball '08??? [:)]

[Armygrognard]

LOL! I'm in a CBS Sports league that has already drafted!

SWEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [&o]

[USSAmerica]

Paul, I'm sure you're busy, but please throw us a bone! [:D]
 
I caught some Spring Training baseball on TV yesterday afternoon in the break room at work.  I have Spring Fever now! 
 
Spring Fever.....I just found the name of my new season's team.  [8D]

Paul....Paul....Paul....inquiring minds want to know....Paul....

Now that baseball is back on the radar here in Detroit, I might just have to take a look at this game.

[panzers]

World series: Red Sox or Tigers?
You can throw in the Yankees and maybe even the Indians or Angels, but please, no national league teams. I have a better chance at winning the lotto than a national league team winning the world series.

I've got a feeling about the Angels this year. Detroit and New York have insanely deep looking offenses, but who exactly is pitching? It will be Anaheim over...I'm gonna go with Atlanta making one last run.

[Paul Vebber]

SOrry for the delay, I will get the leagues set up and the particulars posted in the next couple of days. You guys are lucky again this year as I will be out of the country for the first 6weeks or so of the season...

umm, how about the cy young favorite this year. Justin Verlander, and if Dontrelle willis should somehow regain his form from a couple of seasons ago, They'd have the best 1-2 punch in all of baseball.

Well you know what they say about "IF's". If IF's and But's were candy and nuts we'd all have a merry christmas.

I like Verlander, but Willis was awful last year, not great the year before that, and now he's switching from pitching to a pitcher to throwing to a DH. Pitchers moving from the NL to the AL typically don't fare well in their first year. And after Jeremy Bonderman completely fell apart last year, and with Kenny Rogers being about 300 years old, the rest of the staff is one huge question mark. And yes, they have a bunch of relivers who throw 200 mph...and are always hurt. [:)]

Sorry for the delay getting things set up - a lot to do before going to Japan lat this week.

Anyway the three leagues are set up. THe Managers from last year have been reinvited (if they gave their email)

THe Matrix Basic league is Matrix Basic Baseball (ID# 246018) password matrix at Yahoo: http://baseball.fantasysports.yahoo.com/b1/246018/1

THis league uses the default rules, and an autopick draft.

The weekly league is Matrix Weekly Baseball (ID# 246027) password matrix

http://baseball.fantasysports.yahoo.com/b1/246027

THis is a weekly league (you set your lineups by Monday and it is used for the whole week Monday - Sunday). It uses an Autopick draft.

The Pro league is Matrix Pro Baseball (ID# 246031) password matrix at:

http://baseball.fantasysports.yahoo.com/b1/246031

THis a an online draft league and the draft is at 0930 Eastern on Sat March 30.

The other leagues auto pick drafts will be run Friday Night. I will be in Japan for the draft so you guys will probably have a leg up on me

Good Luck!

As always the winner in each league gets a free game download (unless of course I win )

Good LucK!

I'm in for the Matrix Weekly League, representing my fellow Thread Brothers.  [8D]
 
Paul, as always, thanks for getting the leagues set up for us.  It's always loads of fun.  [:)]

[Guz]

In. I'm in 2 leagues at the moment but if we need a spot in the basic league for someone else I'll give that up.

[Arctic Blast]

Sweet! I'm in the Weekly League.

[Paul Vebber]

THe more the Merrier - don't be shy about joining multiple leagues if you want. The Weekly needs one more and it would be good to get several more in the others!

[wworld7]

I joined the weekly yesterday, so let's get it on.

[Arctic Blast]

Well then, I'll join the Basic, as well.

[HORST324]

We still need one more in the Weekly League. Come on - somebody step up!

[Paul Vebber]

We need one more in the Pro league - When we get it I will resked the online draft. Sorry fr the possible delay here but my availability over here in Japan is spotty...

The other two leagues are set to draft.Good Luck there! Good to the the popularity of the weekly league. Remeber that you have to go to a Monday in order to adjust your lineup there!
