Oh man, I've been dying for someone to suggest a sabremetrics-based points system. I think points is so much more fun than roto. But man, I can't wrap my head around this:

FanGraphs Points - Points based on Linear Weights. Based on work by Justin Merry.

Hitting
AB -1.0
H 5.6
2B 2.9
3B 5.7
HR 9.4
BB 3.0
HBP 3.0
SB 1.9
CS -2.8

Pitching
IP 5.0
K 2.0
BB -3.0
HBP -3.0
HR -13.0
SV 7.0

Biggest question is... there's no minus for a pitcher giving up a hit??

My H-H league has been doing a variation of this for years...oh yeah, and it runs on CBS.

I want to believe! I wish one of the links to a system like this explained it in layman's terms.

I've been in a points league on CBS for over 10 years myself. That's not the exciting part -- the exciting part is a points system based on a player's real, actual value/contribution — I LOVE that concept.

Somehow, "The Jerk" popped into my mind..."The new phone books are here! The new phone books are here!" Carry on. Just an aside.

40 roster spots and a $400 auction? The draft must take 10 days to finish.
