Hi All,

New to site been playing fantasy Baseball for 10+ years. Have 3 teams, 2 keeper leagues, 1 new draft every year.

Not sure about all the things available to use, or a glossary of certain settings.

I have imported all 3 teams and trying to navigate set up for best information.

1 keeper team in deep trouble to many injuries and looking to trade. But some owners believe they have the next Mike Trout.

Any help would be appreciated for set up ,team and player analysis, and trade set ups.

Thanks John (murrayotl)

It looks like your leagues are setup correct and set to CBS as the position source so you should be OK there.  For analysis, to get an overview of where you stand relative to others, you can go to Team Analysis and click Summary Only.  The Projected Standings page will also do this.  Some of the other tools depend on your settings. For example, do you have daily transactions for lineups, or are they set weekly?

Thank You for info, 2 teams are daily 1 is weekly. Still trying to figure out what set up is the most important. I know the 5x5 numbers but as price for players are too, what I would expect to gain, where I would lose points in standings. The hardest part is different contract years. Right now in 1 league a battle is going on about a team making trades to rebuild. The team is out of it and has a lot of injuries. Decisions are being made and are using prices on players from another site.to justify trade. It would be clearer if points expected gain/loss was involved. The contract year makes a big difference too. So I need to somehow to look at the whole picture, also what the trade means this year and for the length of contract. Like Familia closer know his value in trade for this year is high, but what is the real value over the contract years. (next year) Is he going to be a closer for 2 more years.It's subjective and that is where the problem lies.

So I'm confused here, on what I should be looking for and how to get the best info I can gather.

Thank You again John

Okay the summary tells me where we need help and players and positions that are trouble. What is custom stats and what am I looking for in there? Is there a glossary or explanation on how to use certain things? How to set it up? Weekly daily ?

Thanks Noobie John
