Wednesdays and Thursdays aren't good for me, but any other day should be good.

3/19 and 3/20 look good for me. I could possibly make 3/18 work as well if it was late enough.

Can someone repost the keeper rules?

Also what determines the draft order? Reverse order of standings, before or after playoffs?

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

i'm in this year. i'm not sure if 20th or 21st are good as I think one of these dates may already be the draft date for my other league. I'll let you know asap

What if we're trying to keep two first round picks but don't have a 2nd round pick? Is the 2nd kept in the 3rd round?

I don't think you can keep two first-rounders without two first-round picks.

Ah, I read the rules wrong. Says you can keep a MAX of two players per round, but obviously you would need picks for that to be the case.

correct. if you dont have that pick then it goes to the round about it. so like, if you wanna keep someone for a 6th, but dont have your 6th, they cost your 5th. so for a 1st youd need another 1st. doesnt seem right to be able to keep a 1st for 2nd/3rd rd value

Movieman, is draft order reverse of the standings on the league page (which I believe accounts for playoffs, and even the LOLconsolation bracket)? Or from regular season standings?
I dont see any way to look at year's stuff.

Asking just bc Im trying to figure out exactly which draft picks I would be trading for or trading away in trade talks

it should be regular season standings, and i think i had to manually change it last year. i think just look at the seeding for the conso bracket and thats based on the standings

Can package any of these players for picks this season

Votto (1)
Kinsler (4)
Khris Davis (5)
Margot (21)
Lamb (26)

Arrieta (not exactly sure his price. falls between 18-22)

That's what I thought, but I don't see any way to change whats on the league page. Only options I see are "Standings" and "Schedule".
The drop down menu thats supposed to let you view archived seasons from past years doesn't have any actual options to change anything.

edit - I've only tried from my phone. maybe the desktop site has different options

i can check later tonight, i know we did it last year. i should be able to set dates for things soon too, just for keeper deadlines and the draft. but looking like 3/20 for the draft, so probably ~a week before for keeper deadlines just to input everything

Ok well I can’t find it, I emailed yahoo to ask. How did we get it last year? dontdoit or hurp, do you remember? Seems like a weird flaw in yahoos setup

in both my other Yahoo keeper leagues you can change that drop down menu to view any year since the league started, included the full standings, playoffs, and complete draft info.
I always thought it was available in every league that was renewed... but apparently not lol

What are you guys trying to figure out? The draft order? It's just reverse of the playoff seeding I assumed.
