Yahoo! has free fantasy baseball up now.

Anyone want to start a MLB Power Pros forum fantasy league?
I want at least 8 participants and at most 15.

No, free yahoo leagues don't offer any keeper leagues or any other options for that matter.

Just live draft and standard roto 5x5 or head-to-head scoring. Only thing changeable is the stats used.

Unless, I get the finances together (ads?) I don't plan on using the pay leagues that have more options. The only other way would be if every contributed a ton of money ($125 per league).

So, the keeper league is only an option for the pay leagues. Not really worth it.

if you have a messenger system you can make a keeper league by doing it that way

Post subject: 
okay, i'll try to set something up.

It will probably change, but if you know you can't make the draft date of March 15, tell me.

I'll see what I can get.

EDIT:
never mind, i'll wait for more people before deciding on settings

Naw I'm out, I don't know baseball players well enough, just the game itself.

I'm sure there are plenty of others though
