Draft advice for 8 man league with TB and SF no HR.?

Question

Batting stats: R, RBI, SF, SB, TB, E, OBP
Pitchin stats:W, CG, SHO, SV, BLK, ERA, K/9
You see that right, no hr, ba, or k. Any thoughts on a few that i might look for early on or at all?

Answer 1

These are really strange categories (sacrifices and errors, etc.), so ignore most of the advice you'll get on here as most fantasy players will not be familiar with who is good in these categories off the top of their head. Instead, go to the home page in your league and click on Players. Then sort them by each stat category and see who rises to the top.

With the pitching cats, beware trying to get someone that will get complete games and shutouts - that will vary tremendously from year to year.

FYI: Bonds usually has a good OBP, but he may not play that many games this year and can be very frustrating to a fantasy owner.

For the rest of you: SF means Sacrifice Fly (not San Francisco) and TB means Total Bases (not Tampa Bay).

Answer 2

Edit: *Im so used to reading SF and TB for Giants and D-Rays, ha...I know they have leagues on Yahoo where you have only 2 teams on your roster, etc.....my bad, after thinking, I Realized it means Sac Fly and Total Bases......either way, SORRY haha*






Bonds - for his OBP
Crawford - for SB
Kazmir - he is a stud SP
Benitez - Has to be your closer..keep an eye on who gets the TB Closer job though too
Feliz - Led SF in RBI
Cain - Your other SP


Do you need 4 p and 4 batters? or is this a full league with just certain players?


if you need more players: Try Ty Wigginton, Shields, Cantu for TB

for SF, Vizquel, Lowry, Durham and Alou

Answer 3

I think you don't mean with only players from the Giants and Devil Rays, but I thought you were talking about the catagories, so here we go.
Go with Beltran, first round, he gives you Rs, RBIs, and SBs in a pretty good amount. Then Atkins for his Rs and RBIs.
Pitching, take Harang for his Ks.
Then just take who you usually would take.
