MrYuk Posted March 24, 2004 Share Posted March 24, 2004 Gentlemen, Please Help. I have been playing fantasy baseball for about 10 years now. (about the same as Football) Every year I have played there has been new additions to how we do the scoring. Such as WHIP, Head 2 Head etc.. However we have always followed a standard 4X4 or 5X5 scoring system. (Standard in any Yahoo or ESPN public league) Recently at work I was invited to a New League, which is kind of exclusive and I would really like to make a name for myself in this league. However, the scoring they use is Totally different than what I am used to. Rather than tallying your ERA for the week, and the winner getting that 1 point (in head to head) or just tallying it to last weeks ERA score (roto) they do not Count ERA whatsoever. This is how they are doing their Scoring ... Batting - - - - - - - - - - - Single = 1 Point Double = 2 Points Triple = 3 Points Walk = 1 Point Steal = 1 Point Caught Stealing = -1 Point Hit for Cycle = 20 Points Home Run = 4 Points Strike Out = -1 Points RBI = 1 Points Pitching - - - - - - - - - - Walk Issued = -1 Points Blown Save = -2 Points Earned Run = -1 Points INN pitched = .5 Points Strikeout = 1 Point Loss = -5 Points No Hitter = 25 Points Perfect Game = 50 Points Save = 5 Points Shutout = 10 Points Wins = 10 Points I guess I didn’t have to list ALL of the scoring, but I did. I guess my question is... Does anyone have any type of Cheat Sheet for this type of Scoring System? Or maybe a website that address's this type of scoring. Or does anyone have one of those Excel Programs that would allow me to enter my scoring system and print out a valid Draft List. I have a feeling Hitters are more valuable than pitchers but cant really grasp exactly how this is going to play out. Please Help. Me doing well in this league is kinda important. So any help is valuable. Thanks, Mr. Yuk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So any help is valuable. Thanks, Mr. Yuk Im in a league like this- my money league. Im also in a yahoo Huddle league and an ESPN keeper league. My advice to you is just to prepare like you would your other leagues. Focus on slugging percentage instead of BA and focus on wins, Ks and Saves. If you can find a cheatsheet like that you're good to go. You could also use the ESPN player rater using the sabermetrics system. That's what I did last year and will try to do again this year. thumbs_u Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
