The lower the price, the more flexibility I have in lineups. All these players are significantly less than big names like Man Ramirez (10.52) and Josh Ham (9.06)

Scoring:

Stats Category Description Points

R Runs 3

1B Singles 2.5

2B Doubles 5

3B Triples 7.5

HR Home Runs 10

RBI Run Batted In 3

BB Base on Balls 1.66

SB Stolen Bases 5

Out Outs -1.1

K Strike Outs -0.75

CS Caught Stealing -2

There definitely is a speed and power bias. The K penalty can really impact free swingers.

My first hunch was to go Jones, but Cruz is neck and neck. But both are relatively unproven and I do not want to be overly enchanted by a hot start.

Duncan and Rios give great flexibility with their cheap price.

Lind and Duke seem to fit in well with this group

Two of these players do not belong on this list, both are $.50 options, and both are for completely different reasons.

??? It is what it is. I do not create the salaries, I just post them. But a .50 player allows a stud at another position or two for that day's lineup, so they are definitely in consideration. But I already have two ,50 OFers (Fowler and David Murphy) so it is not a pressing need.

Is Rios really 50 cents?

Yes. Its early in the game and there are some absurd values alying around. I guess I should just shut up and nab him at that price. But its getting really ahrd for me to make roster moves, so I wanted to get some opinions before this move.

Also, that is the price against the salary cap. The cost to buy/add to my team: (rios $5, lind 7.50, duncan $4, dukes 4.42, cruz 9.75, Jones 4.19). I do not care much about the purchase cost, since I have made several killings and have plenty.

Don't see how you couldn't go Rios at that price.

 

[cosjobs]

Thanks for the help. Rios purchaed. I now can choose any teo of the following for my daily OF lineup:

ManRam 10.52, JoshHam 9.06, Maybin 4.09, Fowler .50, Rios .50.

I think i might go ahead and sell Maybin, since he's probably not any better than my 50 cent players.

Rios .50

What game is this? Do you pick people daily?

What game is this? Do you pick people daily?

Its a new stock market sports game. That's the main part. But they also have Salary Cap contests monthly and sometimes daily. Its a whole lot of fun for me. And its pretty new, so if you have a sharp eye for talent, there are some huge bargains to be had. Especially now - since they've only been online since teh start of the season and there are only a few hundred players so far (best I can tell). There's a longer FFA thread on it here, that mainly deals with the stock market side. My "Help me win $5000" thread over here is my quest to nab their first contest (currently in 5th place).Edit to add, and answer your question. Its kind of daily lineups. Unless there is not a full slate of games- then that day is combined with the following day. There are 18 "game days" this month.
