I totally overestimated the level of interest at my new job. So far I've only got four teams in a ten team league. I'd like to at least get four more teams involved. It's head to head scoring, pretty simple stuff. The league ID is 101718 and the password is tommy. Feel free to sign up.

Should some of these guys up and overperform, I can bench/drop them and not have to worry about having to dredge up guys who qualified for a particular position. b) Trades ought to prove easier for the same reason. c) Most importantly, though: ABs matter, but may prove hard to come by for shitty players. Versatile guys get more opportunities for ABs, even when they find themselves in the cellar of the depth chart. But, honestly... it's gonna be all about pitching anyways. Point being…

You're certainly looking good in the department, but I think College of Idiots and I should both give you a run for your money. Pitching is going to be everything.
