Let's start a league.
I'll join if it's a keeper
Let's just make it through year one and we'll talk about that.Quote:

Right now it's three people, so not much, unfortunately.Quote:

I'll play. I drafted my 20 team keeper league on Tuesday. Prince Fielder fell way down the draft board because his DH-only status is sort of limiting in our league because we count assists and only have 1 utility slot... Feel like I got great value in nabbing him, but it totally changed my team makeup.
I think you should draft Adam LaRoche.Quote:

OH, I'm not disagreeing - I would find that annoying as well. I was just trying to help you build your team.Quote:

I bet he's a liberal.Quote:
