My league has 10 starting positions, 15 bench spots, abd 1 ir spot. This has worked well.

You have 11 starters so I'd say 17 bench spots is enough plus 1or 2 IR spots

I think the number is whatever is needed to deplete the waiver wire to the point where the guys who are sitting on it are #3-4 type guys. That way you have to think about how you use your bench to backup your #1-2 type guys and not be able to just go and pick up a near equal if they get injured.
