I do this almost every year and get at the least a lukewarm response.

So...is there any interest in a VE-wide fantasy baseball league?  Will probably have to go to Yahoo as most of the other free options I've used before are long since gone.

Post here if you are interested and/or have other suggestions.

Hmm. Perhaps. I'd have to reread about what's involved again.

Well, first off, we need a vaguely interesting league name...otherwise we're stuck with whatever comes to my mind when the league is created.

You don't want that.  It'll suck.

Anyways, we'll be doing it on the free Yahoo fantasy sports area (here) and will likely have an offline draft as I know everyone's schedules are odd.

Once we get a league name and decide about how many teams we can conceivably have in the league we'll get this going.

Is it too late for me to get it, I am a fantasy guru, just won two fantasy football leagues this past year, thanks to the Blatimore Ravens defense and Tomlinson......not to mention Aaron Brooks. But yes, if the offer is still up, I am in.

Oh yeah, you can definitely get in on this, and thanks for kicking my butt in gear so I could finish the set-up.

League Name is Base Delta Zero All-Stars.  Don't bitch, you had many weeks to give me a better one.

Get your butts over to: Yahoo Sports and sign up for our Free Fantasy Baseball Season. The League ID# is 275895 and the Password is "ve".  We've only got eight teams and only a couple weeks to go so sign up quickly.

Well, I'm in. Team name is Xenos.

Should be interesting since I'm not a baseball fan. Bores me to hell. :P (except when actually playing it).

Anyway, doesn't look too hard, so... here I am, heh.

Four teams left and only a couple days before we absolutely must run a draft.

Friday evening at the latest.

You still have time to sign up folks.

Three spots left and I'll likely activate the draft some time tomorrow.  So sign up while you can.

Also, those already signed up, please adjust your draft settings if you were going to go custom.

Yeah, I was loving my pitching staff until I looked at the other teams and realized they could just plain outhit me.

I have a bunch of hitters that would take almost any populated league, but I'm not so sure about this one.

Should be a lot of fun watching those point totals add up.

Surely you jest.

Your's is good but I've got Pedro, Schilling, Wood, Prior, Oswalt, and Ponson with Zambrano and Clement as my weak links.  So, pitch per pitch, I'll measure my squad against your's.

What you DO have are great relievers.  No argument there.

Actually, we all have super teams and that's what is going to make this league interesting. There are some teams out there that are just gonna put up huge run numbers and I just hope my pitching stays healthy.

Also are we doing this for any money or is it just for the fun of it??

I fear seeing the SI cover as it is a cursed thing.

As for prizes, I'm sure we can come up with some form of IC related items.

As for Prior, its gonna be a long season.  Hopefully he can put himself back together.
