I'll set up a Yahoo league if there is interest. Unless someone else has already got it in the works. Let me know.

I am still living in a fantasy right now where the Detroit Tigers will be in the World Series.

The bigger fantasy is a co-worker planning on seeing the Lions play a home game next February  :p

I will play, let me know the rules and time of the draft. For those who have never played Fantasy Baseball before it is a lot of fun.

p.s. Lions play in Febuary??? Don't take this too wrong, but the Lions aren't even going to play in JANUARY.....

I sat out last year, but I'd be interested too.  Could be an interesting year if steroid testing turns everything inside out.

Hey Jim (and all), I don't want to jump the gun on your fantasy league, but I have one set up too.  Go to fantasysports.yahoo.com and follow the links for their free league (not Fantasy Baseball Plus).  The ID# is 86647 and the password is restoration.  This should get you into the Stone-Campbell Baseball league.  There is room for twelve teams, no designated hitter (the curse of baseball), head-to-head competition, and scoring is based on five hitting and five pitching categories.  I'm looking for fun loving fans who will stick with the league for the entire season.  Have fun.  If you have questions just post 'em here.

Maybe next year we can set up a hockey league . . . I hope, I hope, I hope.

I'd like to do that if it is ok.  I'll try to get in this evening.  I'm hoping no one beats me to it.  No DL?  I'm hip.  The DL is baseball heresy.

I love the beanie baseball cap on the mothmen.  This could be an interesting season!

Last Call!  Two spots left in our league.  I'll leave registration open until Monday, March 7.  Sign up soon if you are interested.

I'm already in.  The Carolina Swamprats, on account of where I live.

That's how un-sporty I am.

When I saw the thread title, "Batter Up!", I thought it was an admonition to slather cake batter all over ourselves.

Really.

Just for a second, though.  :D

I was just wondering if anyone else is second guessing their pre-draft order due to the new steroid testing rules?
Some players may not be quite as good this year!

Ah, Jim, better baseball through chemicals.  What a world!

Personally, I'm drafting all skinny guys.  And I would advise everyone else to put utility infielders at the top of your draft list.  Also, find a place in there somewhere for Rusty Greer.  And Barry Larkin.  :D

This just in:  Jimmy Haynes is in camp with the Devil Rays.  I'm tellin' ya, you can't miss drafting Jimmy Haynes.  :;):
