What website is good for Fantasy Keeper Leagues? I want to use minor league palyers too but Yahoo doesn't have them on the free one and idk if they do on the money league. Any advice there? Also I am doing it roto style. 5x5 seems too simple, any extra categories that I could do to make it more interesting? I'm also doing 11 pitchers, 2 catchers, 1 of each IF position, CI and MI, then 5 OF. I don't know how big a bench. Should I make a big one so people can fill with minor leaguers? Any advice would be welcome. I've run leagues in the past never roto keepers though.

I like Sportsline for keeper leagues. I'm in a keeper baseball league on Sportsline, going into our 5th year this year. But our league is head-to-head, not roto. We have a minor league system with 5 minor league slots on each team, but we're discussing expanding it to 7 or maybe even 10 for this upcoming year. In our league, if one of your minors guys gets called up to the majors, and you want to bring him up, you have to drop someone else from your major league roster. In our league, if you don't bring a minor leaguer up to your major league roster until AFTER August 1st, you can put him back in your minors for next season, (a sort of 'free keeper', if you will) even if he starts the next season in the major leagues. I'll be doing that very thing with Delmon Young this year, as I didn't bring him up until after August 1st.
As for extra roto categories, on offense you could use on-base percentage and slugging percentage. Or some folks combine them into one category, on base+slugging percentage. For pitching, you might consider using 'holds' as a stat for relievers. This would work well if you had a roster requirement of a certain number of starters and a certain number of relievers. Then set-up men become valuable, not just closers. You could also use 'quality starts' as a stat for starting pitchers. Good luck!

I know espn.com has an option to make your fantasy football league a keeper league, but I'm not sure about espn fantasy baseball. Might be worth checking out though.

wow, you've various 1st rounders on your crew so that you seem strong to repeat as Champ. what percentage communities are in this league? those adult males are strong & will bypass 1st round in any draft (except you play fallacy baseball - ahhhhhhh) 1B Ryan Howard SS Hanley Ramirez IF Prince Fielder LF Matt Holliday the subsequent 4 2B Brandon Phillips - enable's wish the Lizard would not ruin him OF Carlos Lee SP CC Sabathia RP Papelbon various of a few thing else of the adult males are keeper worth yet in case you seem at this as a draft instead of a keeper, right here you're contained in the 9th round & in user-friendly words have a million SP & a million RP. without recognize what percentage communities are in this league & no longer having a familiar concept of who's protecting what. i might want to say you want to keep a pitcher or 2. Haren for effective & perhaps Oswalt yet i imagine his extra effective days are in the back of him. i might want to definatly keep those 8, once you've any concept what the different communities are protecting.... or extra effective yet who they are letting bypass, i can make my very last decision then. in case you keep 10 & everybody else is protecting 7, then you surely heavily isn't drafting for a pair rounds at the same time as different communities are "catching up" i.e. drafting their 8, 9 & 10 spots. Granderson & Markakis heavily isn't round by technique of the time you get to draft.

cbs.sportline.com is pretty good too with a bunch of minor leaguers too.

don't know if they can help with the keeper aspect to it, but sportingnews is pretty good.
