Rules clarification - can you only use a player at the position they played in the game or anywhere they at rated?. For example, Frank Thomas was the DH in the game yet was also rated at 1B. Can I start him at 1B?

This is not personal,Savoy.I only dropped out because I did not want to play in a 12 team league and this was not specified in the original ad. You are entitled to make your choice for 12 teams.That is absolutely fine.It was not something I wanted and you were in the very early stages of signups,so I wasn't hurting your process.It would be different if I did it at the last minute.Fine,no hard feelings.

The only point of my comment was that if I was an early signup and the last 4 or 5 got free teams,I might feel a bit put out. Seems llike a natural reaction to me.Again, no hard feelings . Good luck to you.

I'm sorry but I am going to leave the league. I don't really like the random aspect of the league, after all. With the boxscores I was given, I ended up with a mediocre to poor starting rotation. I prefer a league in which everyone has an equal opportunity to field their best team.

Good luck to everyone in the league.

I can't believe that you are that much of a **** to suddenly pull out after a few weeks of knowing what your team was.

"My pitching isn't good enough, Wahhh"



You don't have a problem with the random aspect of the league. Your problem is that you don't think that your team is good enough. If the random aspect had given you a team that you thought was great, you wouldn't be quitting.

Actually, my problem is with you. I was warned by two people that you were irresponsible and immature. Case in point, your last post. This is something that I would expect from a 12-year-old, not a mature adult.

Whew, I got out while the getting was good!
