Baseball - How ya doin'?

[YANKS]

Well since I haven't been around FBB this year, was wondering how everyone's doing this season?

Right now, I'm 1st in all 5 of my leagues...3 of them are close though..

1. My 10 team money league, I'm sitting in 1st by 1.5. Three teams are currrently in the running for the title. Decent draft, a few trades and some nice FA pickups all have helped. Big on power, pitching ratios and saves, lacking in speed, avg and wins.

2. A team I signed up for on FH (I believe it's run by Element). 16 teams, no bench, lotsa starters. After a strong pitching week, I have an 8 point lead. Again, three teams are in the hunt. Solid all-around team with no cat. less than 12 points.

3. FH MS BBQ v. FB BBQ. My only H2H league. In 1st by 11.5 games but my offense has been struggling a bit of late. Decided to go with the 'pick up a SP when I can' route.

4. My Yahoo! public league. In first by 3.5 points. 8th place is only 14.5 points behind though. Another league where nothing is too high or low. Biggest weakness here is AVG. Need my boppers to stepup to get me s'more in HR/RBI. Worst draft strat: Took Timlin over Papelbon in the draft and started the year with T.Jones as my only closer. (Still have 8 in Saves though heh)

5. My 10 team CBS Public league has owned all year. Multi-List draft so I killed with the offense that was drafted. I have 88 of a possible 100 points (44 hit 44 pitch). The only 3 cats I'm less than 2nd in are SBs and Saves.

Way happy with how my baseball season is going. I'd love to repeat as champ in my money league of course. $400 min to the winner.

This hasn't been a good year for me. I drafted early in my leagues and simply didn't get around to checking them till June or July. It has made for some new challanges though. I've spent a lot of time this summer, and actually enjoy trying to work my way up the standings via trades and the waiver wire. I've been successful in some leagues, not so much in others.

1. NYFO League (13 teams, 5x5 Roto): This league has been a long running bit on the Mets board at Scout. Its been around since 2001, and I've been a member since 2002. I have a track record of hanging in the top three until August and September before falling down to the very bottom. It has happened three of my four years there. This year, I didn't pay attention, and found myself in 9th. Since I started working the wite, I've worked my way up to 2nd gaining over 20 points. The problem is that I'm still 14 points out of 1st. I really would like to win this league once.

2. Yahoo Public (12 teams, 5x5 Roto): A great draft kept me in first place almost all along. A few weeks ago I would drop to second for a day, but thats it. My lead has since bounced back up to a 7.5 point lead, and think I can hang tight.

3. Yahoo Public (12 teams, 5x5 Roto): Not the same story here, but more like the NYFO League. The team was in 9th as well when I found it but has picked up over 35 points now, and found its way to 4th, 14.5 out of 1st. A lot of trades in this league that can be seen as big risks, but so far they have paid off.

My other name hasn't had as much luck, but I'm too lazy to go looking for specifics.

I'm only in one league this year...the More Sports BBQ vs the Football BBQ league, which Yanks is running away with as of right now.

I'm in 4th...28.5 games behind of Yanks. I think I could be doing better, but there was a 4-5 week period where I didn't really pay much attention to the league. Whoops! heh...

Sucking in all of them.
