He's videoing things? 

I is.

 

[macbk]

Remembering that time you all laughed at me for trying to draft Donaldson late into the draft .

I'm down to re-re-draft whenver ya all want to.

 

[madj55]

Spring Training is here. The Show comes out March 29th. Let's get this going again.

[johnnyredstorm]

Let's make it happen

 

[macbk]

Count me in.

 

[madj55]

Who would be in?

 

[dland24]

Who would be in?

I would say we would need to start with the people who were in it last time and then if there are people who decline we can open it up.

Fair right?

 

[jewbacca2]

Pro plays nascar daily fantasy...

[Retroballer]

My team won by default.

Let's get this started

 

[macbk]

Plot twist - We do this re-re-redraft and instead of The Show 16 we apply it to a Fantasy league with some rules in terms of drops/trades.

 

[johnnyredstorm]

Works for me. Let's get it done!

 

[macbk]

Works for me. Let's get it done!

I almost want to say NO trades or add/drops like we did for the original re-draft in the Show, but it may get messy and not as fun to follow. Then again, it would be real-life stats as opposed to simulated video game.

 

[dland24]

I would prefer we run a video game simulation to a fantasy simulation personally for the following reasons:

• A good fantasy team does not always equate to a good actual team, and visa versa.
• Middle relievers are useless in fantasy, and extremely important in actual baseball.
• Having players who play strong defense are useless in fantasy.  I am looking at you Jason Heyward!  (sorry @CP1708, its the truth)
• Positions are important in real baseball and not in fantasy.

Those are things that are above and beyond the fact that running a fantasy league is exponentially harder to run than letting a video game operating system do it for you.  (i.e. A player gets hurt in video games, and that player is replaced by a bench player.  A player gets hurt in fantasy, you have to manually put in a replacement.)  Also, I dont like the fact that there will be any add/drops  or trades at all.  Would require a ton of patience and time allocated to doing this after the draft has been completed.  Not sure everyone is down for that

Anyway @macbk, if you want to run a fantasy league, be my guest.  Just wanted to offer a devils advocate type of perspective.  I am in regardless.

 

[CP1708]

I built my entire team around defense, best one in the ReDraft. So I know fantasy value isn't ****

 

[Retroballer]

I drafted on the show rankings

 

[jewbacca2]

If you want to do fantasy stuff, then draft a fantasy team in a fantasy league
