http://fantasygames.sportingnews.com/stratomatic/about/player_set_2009.html

Play ball with the latest player cards in Strat-O-Matic's catalog - over 900 players from the 2009 season! Bat [b:f06b267028]Ryan Braun[/b:f06b267028] in front of [b:f06b267028]Albert Pujols[/b:f06b267028] and watch your opponents tremble! Stack [b:f06b267028]Tim Lincecum[/b:f06b267028] and [b:f06b267028]CC Sabathia[/b:f06b267028] at the top of your rotation!

Notes:

- Here's the handy [url=http://fantasygames.sportingnews.com/images/stratomatic/salaries/salaries_public_2009.xls]Excel file[/url] with all the players with their stats and salaries.

- You can immediately use your available "universal" SOM team credits to play, and even switch an existing undrafted 2008 team to 2009 with ease. The item you want to purchase (or claim as a prize from a Finals team) is labeled "Strat-O-Matic Baseball Online: ATG, 2007-2009, 1986".

- Live Drafts for this set are available effective immediately! In case you missed the update, [url=http://www.sportingnews.com/blog/bernieh/227844/]the pick clock is now customizable[/url], while the default has been lengthened to 2 minutes per pick.

- I've heard the (usual) opinions from people who would prefer that we leave the "fluke" cards like Randy Ruiz in the set. While we still need to remove them from the standard set, I'm considering offering an [i:f06b267028]additional[/i:f06b267028], alternate set that will include them, for the first time. Stay tuned for updates.

Thanks! HAVE FUN!

Game on! Thanks Bernie!

FYI: Having trouble starting a team with a free credit. 2009 isn't among the list of available sets.

Awesome

WeeeeeeeDoggie!!!! :D

I bought my 5 pack, but don't see the 2009 league option?

Hmm, try again, I think it may have been slow to update from the cache.

That worked, it's up. Thanks again Bernie.

I have been trying all day to use my free credits as well to access the new set. It just bounces mr back. How can I get around this ?

Thanks
Michael

WHOA, any way you can let us know if this will definitely happen, and if so when?? It could have a HUGE impact on upcoming drafts for 2 keeper leagues that I run.

Thanks for at least considering it, I guess all my griping is making an impact. ( I'm still bitter over Baerga for 2004 though :wink: )

Bernie ..
day two of trying to use my free credits..and trying to buy a five pack..with no luck.

Every time I put in my team name...manager name...and select ..2009...it returns to the home page...
what am I doing wrong ?

please help
