First time in a points league... (1 Viewer)

I have never done a points league in the 20 years I have played Fantasy Baseball....Maybe I sucked..but I think I did ok. The one aspect of my stategy that will stand out, is the fact that I went for wins and innings over Saves....if you have played a points league before, let me know how you think I did....

After two days my team has scored 35% more points than anyone in the league...this is far too easy.

You've got all the guys whose teams have played two games.A dozen teams were off today. Solid team, however. Abreu's value is much higher in a points league. Hanley, Wells are studs.Fielder's K's and Kendrick's lack of slugging might start to wear after awhile; and you have a few injury candidates.
