Holds arent an official stat. Its dumb. For it to be worth the same as wins or Hr's where people actually do research is equally dumb.
Look at the results from the league 5 or 6 teams had 1 or less "hold"
Whatever, it is what it is. I'll look up the leader for "holds", oh wait, its not tracked so you cant...

Did we find an owner yet for the team that the owner bailed? And can we switch the pitchers like it has been the last 3 seasons?

In answer to your questions......

Yes we have. He will be in control by today.

Yes we can. But there is a 1 day lag on acquisitions. More planning/planning ahead?

Here's the link for Hold leaders.... http://baseball.fantasysports.yahoo...ype=33&stat1=S_S_2015&myteam=0&sort=48&sdir=1 ......LOOK!!! There's 3 available guys with 7 and 4 available guys with 6 holds!! :sneaky:

Why is there a 1 day lag on transactions?
We had fun for 4 years and any changes were always voted on.
I dont know why we've had to have such major changes, especially considering we started so late.

Chalk it up to my total inexperience setting up a fantasy baseball league. When I saw "transaction period" I didn't realize it was a day delay. There is no way to change it now. But "major changes"? We have an extra RP spot, 1 less Utility spot and our acquisitions take affect "tomorrow". I added two catagories (1 offensive/ 1 pitching) which IMHO makes it much more interesting. All in all, I think the intentional changed along with the acquisition mistake are minor issues. This is supposed to be for fun and amusement right? I don't get it. After 1 week you're in 2nd place out of 12.

Are you serious? What the hell Dieter?
Sorry. Im finding it too frustrating. I appreciate you setting it up and all, I know that takes effort. I cant access from my pc and the phone version is just flat out annoying. Plus I dont want to be a complainer and hate the way the league is set up. Cant do same day pickups, need to carry 4 relievers, only 1 UT, the holds thing. Its my fault, I'm just a novice at this and was comfortable in the league as it was at RRF. I didnt join other leagues because I didnt have the time or patience to learn a different way.
Sorry man, I just want to have fun and if its this aggravating now I cant even imagine what it will be like later.
I have a pretty decent team, should be easy to get an owner
