Bad Defense League - FULL - THANKS!

PostSat Dec 20, 2014 3:42 pm

Is anyone up for a bad defense league? Rather than saying you can't have less than a 3 or a 4 I was thinking a total for the team. For instance your eight position players couldn't add up to less than 28 or 29. I was in a league like this a couple of years ago and it was a lot of fun. This would force you into some hard choices. Pitchers would be excluded. I haven't seen this done in a while and I think it would be a lot of fun. Thoughts? Any interest?

I will be, but I'll be on vacation for 10 days - maybe after the first of the year.

Maybe I'll just create the league and advertise it on the boards. Sign-up sheets don't seem to work anymore. And as for Treyomo who wrote:

The way leagues fill you should be back in plenty of time.

If anyone was still interested in a Bad Defense League here is my thinking. The poor defense would be predicated on how many position players you carry. For instance if you have 16 position players their defensive totals could add up to no less than 60, 15 is no less than 56, and 14 no less than 53. Pitchers are excluded from these totals and you do get a slight break if you carry the standard 15 position players. This would allow you to use players you might otherwise shy away from due to their poor glove. It would be 80 mil, 5/10/20, waivers, no DH. Suggestions, tweaks are appreciated. For lack of a better way of measuring interest please sign up below. Any one up for some bad defense?

Not sure I understand the total number allowed, is that regarding the primary position of each player?
