WAlks would have been a nice category. I've got like 6 or 7 of them today.

I sure do love me some David Wright.
Are we using quite a few less categories than last year?
Definitely seems easier to manage this time around.
And there is a "Your Team Totals" bar underneath your lineup, which is great.
Math sucks.

It's just one less category - errors. Perhaps I should have balanced out 5 pitching categories with 5 batting by adding On Base Percentage or something but this seemed like a fun way to do it anyway.

I definitely like this rotisseire scoring better than head-to-head atleast with the live stattracker.
Odd how I drafted to produce runs and rbi's and thats my weak spot right now and I dont touch a pitcher until the 6th round of the draft and end up getting 4 out of 5 wins with a 2.95 ERA. Im starting to feel a little more secure with C.Young, Penny, Carmona, Wang, Wainwright, Gorzelanny, and Westbrook.

Wow. If I could count properly, I would have drafted differently. Slightly.

Are you kidding me? Maybe that explains why you took two starters in the first four rounds.

I should post the PM I have from him saying "My word of advice, make sure you draft pitching 'cause there are more pitching categories."

That's not a category you can "win" - it just is a limit imposed on everyone.

Yes, but if you drafted a shit-ton of pitchers and didn't know that you're going to waste a bunch of outings.
