Fantasy Baseball possible rule changes in 2015

I played fantasy baseball for 20 seasons, including five years as a senior writer for CBSSports.com Fantasy in the mid-2000s, I was part of every war for nine seasons (2008 Mixed Field, Woo-hoo!).

One thing I do every offseason like to discuss possible changes in the rules for the next season of fantasy.

Let us first separate the game into two sections, one for baseball players of fantasy and rotisserie owners Head-to-Head.

Change rules grill

As the boys began in 1975 Fantasy Baseball restaurant called "The French rotisserie," most of us play a steakhouse-style fantasy baseball. Only in the last decade we have seen, the fans began to develop in the game head to head.

But for those who still play BBQ, there have been recent changes that started with many miles. The OBP has hit rate in all wars, a league of experts who think they are leading the charge to make the best game for other players may be replaced.

Well, earlier this month, we started talking about possible changes some rules more. Ray Flores FantasyAlarm.com suggested we replace the base class flew "caught stealing" with "net stolen bases", which is calculated by subtraction in stolen bases (SB-CS).

He also proposed replacing the category "Sales", which is a kind of combo as Saves WHIP (Walks (+ applies) / innings). As you would calculate the "sales" Add Guarda and holds in a single category. "Chasing stations draft day or waivers tired," Flores said. "Why not try to put in place in order to reward talent analgesics against role of the manager puts them in."

Cory Schwartz MLB.com and agree with the concept, "there were almost two earned per Declares Save" Schwartz said, "so presumably the cost of acquisition of analgesics are reduced accordingly, as a rule, so that owners spend their project and FAAB more money elsewhere than in the bullpen. This can be a good thing. "

Also jumped my suggestion is styled "shlubs" which is calculated as follows: (+ Save Dit) minus (+ sabotage loss) My comment was like a fart in church, but I'm not. Proposed by this change.

Another suggestion Chris Liss proposed Rotowire.com ship in September, when teams call the players to fill about 40 players. He compared them in Week 17 Fantasy Football.

Head-to-Head Changes Rules

Head-to-Head leagues have could have much more variation than the 5x5 or 4x4 instead a rotisserie league. In the mid-2000s Head-to-Head formats began to gain Rotisserie leagues. And now, run by CBSSports.com leagues in 2014, 40 percent use Head-to-Head and 44 percent use classification systems grill. The remaining 16 percent are variations or combinations of the two systems, with points shows also an alternative.

Tier two installments

In Major League Baseball, usually a team plays two rows facing different MLB teams every week (sometimes three). So why not have the same fantasy baseball? Take a period until Monday when most other fantasy baseball leagues, but there must be a limit on Friday. This gives you two games per week, and eliminate the "dual-boot" play head to head factor, which is a space that should be closed.

Two leagues, World Series

I started a league in 2005, CBSSports.com, which continues even today. He pulled BIGS League (Baseball large scale) and has to play 10 teams, apart from the others throughout the season essentially two leagues. Then at the end, when a team from each league (AL and NL only one) appears as the champion of this league, the two winners will meet for 3 weeks in September at Fantasy Baseball to determine the World Series champion!

Eric Mack, Jamey Eisenberg and many other fantasy writers are still in this league, and the most exciting moment is when the deadline for amending MLB back. Since it is not allowed, a player who does not start in your league, it's always fun to try, has moved a trade for a player in the AL to the NL, or to obtain vice versa. We must act quickly, but because you may not find a business partner for your players at the end - and you are not able to use the program.

We hope that these rule changes helped trigger an idea for your own league! If you change the rules you want to offer, tweetDavidGonos and let me me know! You could use it in a future column - with sufficient credit'll, of course!
