2k22 All Free Agent Team

[joncarlos]

Has anyone gotten their team started yet? Interesting development this year as Yahoo has switched to FAAB instead of first-come, first-serve. It seems to run every night and you can bid $0. Wonder how this will impact our free agent adventures.

(For those who didn't play last year, the idea is basically to join a standard free Yahoo league, put a bunch of truly awful players on your draft list, and then build a team completely from free agents. We had some owners win their leagues last year... here's the thread: http://forum.rotojunkiefix.com/showt...e-Agent-League )

I've got my team started, will list them in the next post. It would appear that my team finished 4th last year.

Here's what I have to start. Saves are going to be tough, but it's early. I might have too many stashes but I want to wait and see how far away the prospects are.

C - Francisco Mejia
1B -Mark Canha
2B - Kolten Wong
3B - Renato Nunez
SS - Nick Ahmed
OF - Choo, Justin Upto, Kyle Tucker
UT - Nick Solak (2B/3B in Yahoo), Brandon Lowe (1B/2B/OF in Yahoo)
Bench - Jo Adell, Puig, Brett Gardner

SP - Andrew Heaney, Garrett Richards, Jose Urquidy, Josh James, Yonny Chirinos, Mitch Keller, Michael Kopech
RP - Hunter Harvey, Jose Alvarado, Aaron Bummer

thanks for the reminder

time to grab that team of wretchedness to start - then swap them all

Private Yahoo leagues still have the option to use waiver only instead of the new FAAB/waiver hybrid. But, i think Yahoo is trying to curb excessive streaming in their public and pro leagues. I was in a pro league that had a team make over 700 moves last year! The guy finished 10th so it obviously doesn't work. But, it was annoying to always have a large percentage of the top free agents not immediately available until they passed through the 2 day waiver period.

I drafted my team. I must've messed up my rankings because my team drafted Carlos Santana, Choo and Foltynewicz. I figure they are close enough to waiver wire fodder that I'm gonna leave them on my team. Well, maybe not Santana but it's close enough. I still have two more scrubs that I was unable to replace on the first go around.

Here's my team

C - Narvaez
1B/3B - Santana, Walker, CJ Cron, Diaz
2B/SS - Galvis, C Hernandez, Castro
OF - Choo, Renfroe, Gardner, Adell

SP - Folty, Kopech, Keller, Richards, DeSclafani, Matz, Jon Gray

you realize if you win we'll have to put an * beside your name on the trophy
