April 3rd will be the first game of the season, as my Boston Red Sox go to Yankee Stadium!!! I also think that is the day they get their World Series Rings?

Woooo!

For when more info is posted later...

"You currently have 5 unused bench spots on your roster."

What does this mean? Should I be worried?

The live draft is tentatively scheduled to take place on Sunday, March 20th at 10:30 a.m.

Please post any grievances with the chosen time here.

Okay, can someone explain to me:

a) What a live draft is?
b) Are there any suggestions on how best to do it?
c) What happens if I miss it?

Starrman et al:


Start here for answer. You can click on any subject in the left-hand column for additional info. Should help a great deal. PM me in case of confusion as I'm a vet of Yahoo fantasy BB.

Oh yeah, I'm winning it all anyway so you all are battling for 2nd in any event. 😉

Okay cool that really helps, thanks.

One more thing though, could someone please just describe the field positions, what they do and how many people are in each etc?

This baseball thing makes no sense, now if it was fantasy cricket, you'd all be fighting for second place 😛

I was explaining baseball the other night (we were playing paper-ball-and-spatula-it's-a-home-run-if-it-goes-out-the-window- rather than 'fantasy' baseball). Everyone picked up on it fairly quickly, but I'm fairly sure I'd rather have gone to a physics lecture than listen to the cricket explanation that followed 😴.

Starrman, go here:

very good visual presentation
