P propose we consider adding slugging to the Offensive side. Not having that makes doubles and triples worthless, when in reality, they are quite valuable. At least as valuable as a steal.And I would have no trouble going 6x5, sine i think that would make pitching value more in line with reality. If we wanted 6x6, I think QS is a worthy category THis is not a demand, and I do want to make a trainwreck, but I do think it would more accurately show the value of a team relative to MLB

 
I have no problem doing something like the following:Hitting:OBPSLGRRBISBPitching:QSERAWHIPKSVOr, if people are particularly resistant to QS, we could leave in W.I do like the idea of SLG and OBP being paired up. Not really a fan of unbalanced (e.g., 6x5) categories. I used to be in a 7x5 and it was just goofy.Discuss..

Interesting. My first reaction to no HRs was "Oh no," but since they will significantly bolster the SLG, I am waffling. Not sold as the HR is the cadillac of all offensive stats. Since pitchers should really not be going until R4-5, it would make since for the format to be 6x5, showing a bias that reflects the way we draft/evaluate.Personally I think Ws are the most worthless stat and would prefer QSs.

Leave it be. Why would you want to change the greatest league in the history of fantasy sports?

 
I am also a fan of middle relievers. What could we do that would reflect their true relative value in rotisserie format?

 
We're having some issues transferring commish duties to me since I didn't have my email address visible when the league archived.I don't know if it's possible to transfer it to me after the league reforms, but then ex-commish Jethro isn't going to play this year, so maybe that's not a solution.

I did a Holds league once and found it devalued Saves
yeah, I dont think Holds is the answer. If you just took out wins all the other P categories would rise to represent a more accurate portrayal.
Middle relievers are already more valuable in a 16 team league with relatively low IP limits than in the standard fantasy format.

Can't Jet just renew? What does the commish actually do? Just enter the rosters?
 
TRE is now commish. He can restart the original Yahoo league now and hand off duties (I think) after we're live. If he wants, that is.
