AGM Fantasy Baseball Draft Reminder Thingy

5
Vote

p2862820th.gif

Just a reminder, since it's been so long since many people signed up -- the AGM Fantasy Baseball League draft is tomorrow (Sat., Mar. 24) at 3:30 PM EDT. There's still time to sign up, too; information can be found here. I'm excited about the new season!

Are you sure about the time? 12:30 MST, which is the time listed on the site, is actually 2:30 EST.

Huh. That's weird, because it's telling me, "Your live online draft is set for Sat Mar 24 3:30pm EDT". 12:30 MST would be 1:30 MDT, which would be 3:30 EDT... maybe Yahoo! still hasn't switched to daylight savings time or something.

That would be entirely possible, considering the change in the law. I've got 3:30 eastern time on my site.

I think it has to do where we live. Yahoo site shows our actual timezone, with the exception of Arizona, where we don't observe Daylight Savings Time. So Yahoo is technically correct, MST is our actual time zone, although the time listed is PST, which is where we are. 12:30 PST is 3:30 EST.

Question for the commissioner: If the only pitching categories are innings and earned runs allowed, why are relief pitchers being used?

For realism. There's a limit to the number of innings your team can "pitch" over the course of the season (1475), to encourage you to build your staff like a real-life GM would; once you reach that limit, stats are no longer accumulated at that position. You could go crazy, draft all starters, and burn up all your innings by June, but as a rule starters have higher ERAs than relievers anyway, so I'm not sure why you'd want to take that tack. But I digress. Point is, it's all about the realism in this league (as much realism as Yahoo! will allow, that is).

I remembered! You US people screwing up when you put the clock back doesn't help. It says 7:30 on mine, which should be fine, although it will probably be 8:30. But that's fine too. Whenever it is, be sure to be there half an hour in advance. I'll be trying to juggle an England v Kenya cricket match, eating my dinner and the draft simultaneously... Could be interesting...

Well, baseball is kind of like cricket's illegitimate stepchild, so maybe there's a connection there...

Well, Kenya are currently 10/1, so it's looking good for us. The Australia-South Africa game could be a classic though...

Ha, me too. I think Yahoo! hasn't totally adjusted to daylight savings -- the countdown clock at "My Team" was off by an hour all morning, and now it's disabled. I hope the system works in a half-hour...
