Whaddaya think? This is the second year of our 10-team Roto keeper league. To start, we were allowed to keep up to five players (
[1] 5-year contract, [2] 3-year contracts, and [2] 2-year contracts) for no more than a total of 15 years and with a $75 cap based on CBS's 2009 values. We added an extra LF, CF, & RF slot this year, along with an extra SP & RP slot to make things a little more interesting. Here are the cats:
Batting: 2B, 3B, BA, BB, HR, R, RBI, SB-CS
Pitching: ERA, HD, INN, K, QS, S-BS, W-L, WHIPUltimately, I waited a bit too long to go for closers, and then there was a bit of a run. I think I'll be alright with that, though, considering that we count HD, as well as INN. I'm also worried about my speed cats, but I think I'll be able to get those off the wire.
As far as keepers for next year, I'll have Halladay and Wainwright coming off and an available 10 years for contracts. Beckham will be given one of the 5-year contracts and, depending on performance, the other will go to Alcides, Desmond, Rasmus, Pence, or Chapman...provided I do not trade any of them, of course!
