**** Just a thought, but maybe we should all register using our RedsZone screen names so that we can recognize each other easily. I'm registered as "grounds crew".
I have a maximum of 14 teams at this point for a head-to-head league with a live draft. Players will be drafted from both leagues rather than just using a NL or AL league. I went with the default Yahoo settings for now, pending recommendations from participants. I'll update it accordingly. I also set a draft date, which will also be temporary until we all decide upon a specific date/time. I can also change it to allow more/less players if need be.
Here are the default league settings:
Scoring Type: Head-to-Head
Max Teams: 14
Player universe: All baseball
Max Moves: No maximum
Max Trades: No maximum
Trade End Date: August 12, 2007

Can't Cut List: Yahoo! Sports
Post Draft Players: Follow Waiver Rules
League Start Week: Week 1 (Apr 1)
Roster Changes: Daily - Tomorrow
Minimum Innings Pitched: 7
Divisions: No (I think it would be fun to have 2 divisions. So, if you agree then comment on it.)
Catcher (C): 1
First Base (1B): 1
Second Base (2B): 1
Third Base (3B): 1
Shortstop (SS): 1
Left Fielder (LF): 0
Center Fielder (CF): 0
Right Fielder (RF): 0
Outfield (OF): 3 (rather than using individual OF positions such as RF, CF, LF...I went with 3 standard default "OF" spots)
Other Batters (Util): 1
(the above numbers give us a total of 9 batters, which obviously is standard)
Pitching:
Starters (SP): 2
Relievers (RP): 2
Other Pitchers (P): 3
Other:

Scoring will be based on these stats: (I'll change these upon recommendation)

Stolen Bases
Batting Average

Complete Games
Shut Outs

Earned Run Average
(Walks + Hits)/ Innings Pitched

As you probably saw in the settings above, I have the division settings turned to OFF. I think it would be fun to have 2 divisions. Anyone else agree? Feel free to submit any suggestions and I'll change them accordingly if they are reasonable. I merely set this up with default methods in order to get the ball rolling.
