Here is the league info:

- The live online draft is set for Mon Mar 29 8:30pm CDT

- Head-to-Head scoring

- There are 4 divisions, and each division winner makes the playoffs, as do some wildcard teams (maybe 2 or 4, we'll see)

- The roster is a legitimate 25-man roster; all position players, a utility player, a 5-man rotation, 6-man bullpen, and 5-man bench (with 2-man DL)

- Keepers selected after the season, the amount is unlimited -- you can keep anywhere from your whole team to no one, just like real life.

- Batters Stat Categories: Runs ®, Hits (H), Singles (1B), Doubles (2B), Home Runs (HR), Runs Batted In (RBI), Stolen Bases (SB), Walks (BB), Intentional Walks (IBB), Putouts (PO), Assists (A), Batting Average (AVG), On-base + Slugging Percentage (OPS), Hitting for the Cycle (CYC), Grand Slam Home Runs (SLAM)

- Pitchers Stat Categories: Innings Pitched (IP), Wins (W), Complete Games (CG), Shutouts (SHO), Saves (SV), Strikeouts (K), Holds (HLD), Earned Run Average (ERA), (Walks + Hits)/ Innings Pitched (WHIP), Relief Wins (RW), No Hitters (NH), Perfect Games (PG)

Join if you're interested in a challenge -- 25-man rosters, combined with a lot of owners, means less good talent will be freely available and puts a big emphasis on a well-executed draft and having some solid bench players and bullpen, meaning good role players, not just big stars.

And since it's destined to be a keeper league, those interested in the long term are preferred. Also, stats and league rules are subject to change once we all start discussing them -- I'm looking to create a league with some intelligent stats that really reflects today's sabermetric side of the game as much as possible.

If you have any questions, ask away here. If you're interested in joining, reply here and I'll contact you with the league number and password. Would love to see some of you guys join, I know there are some big statheads here...

The league is free, Yahoo! no longer charges for anything -- all features are now free, it's gonna be a great year to be with Yahoo.

And I'd like to stress that we're looking for people who will come back year-to-year and be very active. If this is you, then reply.
