    Congrats to the league champ, Railside Cards!

    Congrats, also, to runner up (and regular season winner) Emerald City Bashers and 3rd place winner BigRedMachine.

    Will be reaching out within next day or two to those teams to whom payouts are forthcoming.

    Till next year!

    With my 2023 fantasy baseball winnings I used all the funds towards this cello pack, so basically I got this pack for 1/2 price
    That is a win win situation

    I have a bunch of things going on anticipation of moving out of state following retirement later this year and won't have the time to devote to it so unfortunately I am going to take a knee this season. Good luck to everyone.

    Hey Gregg,
    Thanks for picking up the ball!

    Are we locked at 11 or are you trying for 12?
    If 11 is the number - perhaps you could post the draft order?

    This thread was for the 2023 season. Gregg should be creating a new thread for 2024.
