    Looks like have 12. Sorry for the delay in getting this out. We have some people ITT that did not provide their email, but you all did, so congrats, I guess? Anyhow, you should have an invite in your email for the league that went out about 15-20 minutes ago. Looking to draft Thursday night if possible so we are ready for the first games of the season.

    Let me know if the draft day or time is a problem and we can go from there. The goal is to have the full draft, but if that's not looking like a possibility we will get as many as possible. PM me anytime and I have no issue emailing or texting anyone in the league if you need something. I'll provide my cell to anyone who wants it.

    Also if anyone has an issue, please post ITT. I'm simply organizing this with some extra controls here but willing to go with the masses. If we need something changed, let me know and we will vote and move forward.

    My dad's birthday is tomorrow so I'm not sure how much of it I'll be able to be present for. I'm so out of the loop a few auto picks might not be the worst thing

    We can certainly adjust the time. That was me spitballing, figuring we had some WC users and some ESPN time zone as well.

    Thats why I asked I saw some email saying that it could delay the draft or something. Wasn’t sure how it worked after the season started.

    If Alshon signs up we are good to go. If not, maybe tomorrow night same time? Potentially the weekend?

    I’m out this weekend unless we did Sunday night or something. Feel free to draft and I can #manage my way through it if I can’t draft

    Since we had two responses I’m just going to say we will push it until Sunday. Tentatively, I also assume Alshon would let us know if he signed up.

    Was this decided? Getting into the draft now.

    Is there free agency? Every player is currently on waivers. Maybe because the draft was less than 24 hours ago?

    I don’t know, I just confirmed scoring starts this week. I never did ESPN for baseball but I know every year yahoo has some initial issues they work through

    There was a notice at the top of my screen that because we drafted on Opening Day, the stats for this week aren’t counted.

    So does scoring start today? Or not until this “week” ends with is 4/17

    I just realized since opening week wasn’t a full week that our season probably doesn’t start until next week

    Starts next monday. I can't figure out where to change it. Looks like it's next monday by default which is dumb considering it's still a week.

    In League settings, can the commish interact with the schedule there? It’s what has set the schedule for starting on the 18th.

    Edit: Found it

    1. Click on LM Tools
    2. Click “Edit Head-to-Head Schedule”
    3. Click “edit” next to the matchup to change the scoring date

    Still greyed out for me week one. I can edit who plays who but not when it starts.

    Guess we’ll just have to wait then.

    In the meantime, do we want to make this a keeper league?

    I’m not opposed to that at all but I’d like to see how many active teams we have first.

    Unfortunately, because we did the draft on Opening Day, none of this week+ is counted.

    I’m okay with it because it gives us a chance to make some moves with a little more clarity on roles before the points count.

    It’s no problem. I was more laughing at myself for setting my lineup for 2 weeks and it didn’t count

    Friendly reminder that today is the first real day of scoring, so make sure your lineups are ready.

    What's the rationale for ABs as a category? Are people able to cheese the rate stats otherwise?
