I'm in but less interested if it's a real league.

[joncarlos]

I'm in but I'd really prefer that we DO play it out.

[Fresno Bob]

in only if we play it out, but I'm also fine with "draft and hold" ie no actions during the year

I'm good with that, too.

[Hornsby]

No moves and I'm in...

Does Fantrax or any other freebie site do a "best ball" roto style scoring league?

[cool hand]

I enjoyed the Fantrax league last year. I'd be in for something like that.

Fantrax definitely has the software to support bestball, they advertise best ball leagues -- https://www.fantrax.com/fantasy/games/lobby/main/mlb

I havent figure out how to set your own custom league to use bestball though.

What is a bestball league?

What is a bestball league?

You don't set lineups. The site automatically takes the best players for that week at that position for your team. Only drawback is that it's points based, not roto.

And Ken, thanks -- Fantrax DOES offer BestBall format. League has been setup for a points based, Best Ball league with no lineup changes, add/drops or trades.

[TranaGreg]

consider me a definite probably-maybe (my availability isn't great these days ... )

I do like the idea of playing it out with a no maintenance league.

[B-Fly]

I'll play.

[Ken]

I'm soooo busy right now that I can't commit to .....

Screw it I'm in, of course.

[Mithrandir]

I'm in too.
