Fantasy Baseball Leagues: Pick your game

Please sticky this for a few days!

For those that are interested, here are the leagues starting up (that I know of) and some basic stuff for them. Just PM the Commish of the league you are interested in and they should get the ball rolling. If I left any leagues off of the list, please add them on. Otherwise, just use this for PM'ing the folks running the leagues and posting other leagues. We can keep it organized a little easier that way. Thanks!

SC Reds Fans : Head-to-Head League with a Live Draft. Owners will decide scoring


Larkin Fan : Either H2H or Rotisserie with a Live Draft.


cincinnati chili : Rotisserie with non-traditional scoring and a possible live draft. Also, if a small league, it may be NL only.


EmtyRedsFan : Not sure on details...PM him for them.

Thanks. Here are the 4x4 categories and details:

Batters:
-On base%
-Walks
-Hits
-Total Bases

Pitchers:
-Strikeout/Walk Ratio
-innings pitched
-home runs allowed
-strikeouts

-9 active hitters (c, 1b, 2b, ss, 3b, cf, of, of, utility)
-9 active pitchers (5 starters, 4 relievers)
-size of bench negotiable (keep in mind. bigger bench = longer draft)

I would suggest an NL only league unless we get more than 10 people

Draft date/time negotiable, but the sooner the better.

-If there's a lack of interest in this format, I will gladly jump to one of the other leagues mentioned above (but if so, would prefer a format that isn't overly geared toward "saves" or "stolen bases" like so many fantasy and roto leagues)

What is everyone's preference for the draft day/time. Any day of the week is fine with me, but I would prefer it to be an evening draft. (6:00 PM- 9:00 PM; latest that it can be done)

Larkin, the 6-9 is by far my choice, work will not let any other ones happen. I'd rather do it Sunday-Thursday, things tend to be more unpredictable on weekends.

Also, doing the draft the second to third week of March would be good.

The time frame KYRedsFan suggested works for me as well. However, during the week of March 11th I won't have access to a computer, so I'd prefer that, if possible, the draft not be that week. If there are no other options, I may be able to make other arrangements to get Internet access, but I'm not sure.

Larkin Fan, the best time for me is a weeknight as well, anytime after 7:30pm EST. One thing I wanted to mention is that the 6-9 timeframe that Yahoo gives (evening) is PST, so add three hours to whatever time you set it up for. That means that you actually could look in the late afternoon drafts as well for a time. I think the last time they give for late afternoon is 5:30-6:00, which is actually 8:30-9:00 EST. Just thought I would let you know. Thanks for taking care of this.

Sorry Empty Reds Fan. I'm an NL only player. Having to keep on top of the AL is like a job whereas keeping up with the NL is something I do anyway.
