reminder, and we're in the 5th year, so finally seeing some of those +10 rounds

Keeper rules:
5 keepers kept, at least 1 hitter and 1 pitcher
Keeper cost: The 1st year a player is kept they cost the round they were drafted in.
2nd year: +1 round earlier
3rd year: +3 rounds earlier
4th year: +6 rounds earlier
5th year: +10 rounds earlier
If you do not have the draft pick to keep that player, you may keep that player for +1 earlier round. If you do not have the earlier draft pick, it takes the next earliest round. For example, John Doe is a 6th rder, but you traded your 6th and 5th pick, John Doe costs you a 4th rder.
You may keep a MAX of 2 players per round.

If you trade for a player, his keeper cost is the round he was drafted in.
If you pick up a player from FA who was drafted, his keeper cost is the round he was drafted in.
If you pick up a player from FA who was NOT drafted, his keeper cost is the last drafting round.
A max of 3 FA's who were not drafted may be kept per year.
Keepers can be kept for a max of 5 years

In. Think we need a couple replacement owners though.

Not sure what cunning stunts is doing this year, but I would lean towards replacing unless there's some legitimate explanation for abandoning his team. Woba fett has already said he's out.

I'd like to see some kind of punishment inflicted to last place or something to counteract tanking and quitting the league.

A couple issues I remember being discussed last year:

1) processing trades faster, the wait time on trades (and FA picks ups too) is unnecessarily long

2) tanking/inactivity penalties

I was able to see my archived roster page bc I book marked it on the 13th when all my baseball leagues were still showing from the main drop down menu, but a couple days later I could not get to any of my other leagues at all.
Now I don't even see Baseball on the drop down.

Here's the link:
https://baseball.fantasysports.yahoo...b/2018/25475/3
I think Yahoo will let you open it as long as you're already logged in


Edit
Ah, I misread. You probably already have access to the league archive link I posted.
None of the leagues I commish are allowing me to open the main league league page or commish tools though.

keeper costs (to the best of my ability)

They're listed by the round they were kept in last year, and how many years they've been kept.

So if you're going to keep them going into this season, go up 1

IE -- Bryant is 10th rd and was 4th year, so into his 5th year would be +10 rounds meaning he'd be a 1st.

You need the DP of the round to keep someone, and if you have multiple of those DPs then you can use both.

If you don't have that DP and want to keep someone, you can opt to lose the round earlier. So if someone costs a 10th, but you don't have it, you can opt for them to cost you a 9th. And then that's how they're counted the following year.

We're finally in the 5th year so a lot of guys are getting that +10. We finally got here! Finally getting to the steep keeper costs, and the last year that guys can be kept. Should be a lot of interesting keepers, resetting some parity, in theory


Hurp Durpington:
Altuve (1st) (4th)
Bryant (10th) (4th)
DeGrom (16th) (4th)
Pham (24th) (1st)
Contreras (25th) (1st)

I Raze River
Trout (1) 4th
Correa (18) 3rd
Syndergaard (17) 3rd
Wil Myers (16) 2nd
Travis Shaw (26)

Kershaw 1 (3rd)
Stanton 2 ( please use the pick acquired from ND, and leave my pick open)

Bellinger 16 (1st)
Judge 26 (1st)

movieman's keepers:
Acuna 26th
Gallo 25th
Blackmon 16th (4th)
Springer 4th (4th)
Knebel 25th

Bryce Harper (1) 3rd year?

How many keepers are we allowed to have again?

Also I’m in this year.

Moving cross country around draft time, so scheduling may be tight.
