Rosters

More roster possible talk...

Maybe we could freeze two players (a position player and a pitcher) from our prior roster.

Then I was thinking we could limit the teams to:

C
1B
3B
Corner
2B
SS
MI
OF
OF
OF
Util

For 11 position players

and then

7 total pitchers
Like a 5 man rotation
2 relief pitchers

I would also be for limiting the number of moves to make the draft more meaningful.

Online Commish

Does anyone know of a good service out there?

I've been looking around...I guess if some of our funds need to go to it then that would be ok with me.

Draft

I'd love to have a draft weekend with a social evening and a draft in Denver. Then we go to a game at Coors Field. Thoughts?

My first blog. I had to look up my gmail password to get in, but if you want to send me email, use my aol address.

I want to be in this league. I'm emotionally attached to my "current" roster, so I prefer keeping more of them, up to 7 or so. And I liked the basic format we had -- 5x5, NL-only, draft rather than auction. Rather than start some different game, I prefer to stay pretty much as we were, with a little less contention maybe. But, like I said, I want to be in this league. So if there's strong sentiment for something different, I'm still in.

There may be some details about transaction rules we should iron out. Since we've played together in that format, we pretty well know what the issues are going to be: compensation for losing players, trading for future compensation, waiver timing, etc. We can deal with them and move on.

Keeper

I wouldn't mind each of us being able to keep one player from the old rosters. I think that way there would be a tie-in to the past league as well.

Welcome!

It's time to return to the basics.

It's time to bring the league back to the way that it should be -- fun between long-time friends!

So with that I propose the High Plains Drifters 2 League!!

I want this to be a place that we can comment on what we would like to see in the league.

Enjoy!!
