I've never played before

But I'm in

Cool, welcome. This is a 5X5 Roto league. Meaning 5 hitting categories. (Runs, Home Runs, Runs Batted In, Stolen Bases, and Batting Average) and 5 pitching categories. (Wins, Strike outs, Saves, and WHIP= Walks and Hits per Inning Pitched, and Earned Run Average).

The object is to rack up the most in each category. Then you are ranked accordingly in the league, and score points based off of that.

example: In a 12 team league if your team has the most Home runs you get 12 points. If you have the least you get 1 point.

You do that for each category. It's a running total that builds up threw out the season. Who ever accumulates the most points at the end of the season wins.

The key to winning or at least being competitive is to make sure you have a well balanced team. You don't want to neglect any category during the draft.

You will notice once you start looking into it that certain players are better power hitters and hit more Home runs. While others are more speed players that get more stolen bases. you want a nice balance of both types of players.

Then from there you will just draft your players. Catcher, 1st base, second base, 3rd base and so on.

Hope that helped. I would recomend going to ESPN and check out there draft kit. It's free, and will give an idea of what I'm talking about.

sounds good. I'll check out the EspN site. Haven't even looked at rules, are we drafting a full team?

Positions are:

C, 1B, 2B, 3B SS, OF, OF, OF, Utility (you can stick any hitter in this spot)

SP(has to be a starting pitcher), SP, RP(relief pitcher, this is were you would play your closeres. There the ones who get you saves.), RP, P(any pitcher), P, P.

Then there are 11 bench spots. To give your team depth. This is were you would draft back ups to your hitters or load up on Pitchers like Nance did last year.

So, all together you will draft 27 players.

    • I'm more impressed with the UDFA that the guys they have drafted in the first the last 2 years. A whole lot of prove it is still needed before any improvement should be talked about seriously.
    • Sure.    ignore that he said this roster wasn’t good in 2023 to 2024 but keep up the effort
    • While I don't believe its a must win, (we have been better on the road this post season) it is definitely A NEED TO WIN the longer this series goes the more pronounced the Canes advantage on rest and health will be! If we hold serve at home in games 1 and 2 guaranteeing a 6 game minimum series for them if we lose the road games..... by the game 4 and 5 I expect them to be beat they have played A LOT OF HOCKEY the last three years, they have MINIMAL rest off a more physical than one might have expected series vs the leafs.... you know Tampa took their pound of flesh in round 1 from them. Combine all that with the fact that even though this year's canes squad isn't as talented as last years this IS a better squad than the one they swept last time that had McKenzie Mckeathern on line 1 Turbo with a broken hand a banged uo and eventually concussed Slavin (and even though it was a sweep 6 OTS and 4 1 goal losses is hardly dominant)  This year Bob hasn't been superman (hes probably gonna still have a great save percentage agiast us just a side effect of our style) Thatchuk is maybe 50% (3 game winners agiast us) their defense no longer has Gudas and several other downgrades.  While the Canes have a healthy and performing Svechnikov along with other big guys to counteract florida like Carrier, Jankowski, Robinson.   I by know means think it will happen but I either see this as a low scoring dog fight or a series were the canes surprise and end up dominating.
