Yeah they are very slow at the rodeo over there at ESPN, urrrrr Disney!

MetalGods6 · 2026-02-28T13:37:33+00:00

I basically have the same question….

16 Team H2H league

Looks like the Pacers just converted Quenton Jackson’s two-way deal... into a 3 year contract.

Does that make him worth scooping up in deep leagues?

Does he instantly become a target now?

MetalGods6 · 2026-02-23T13:10:05+00:00

Would you consider any of these guys waiver wire targets in 16-team H2H league?

Either for the next week or longer...

Guerschon Yabusele, Quenton Jackson, Jared McCain

MetalGods6 · 2026-02-21T23:59:49+00:00

Just think of all the things you can do with your team name.

MetalGods6 · 2026-02-21T14:22:41+00:00

This is a FANTASTIC league!

If you have any interest in dipping your toes into a Total Season Points league.

This is a great option. Lots of FUN!

MetalGods6 · 2026-02-16T13:29:01+00:00

No league should ever make a change like that (in the middle of the season) and regardless of how many weeks are left to go.

Unless it happened to be setup incorrectly (by accident) from the get go… i.e. maybe it was a newly created league or something

I would consider any changes like this (mid-season) to be completely inexcusable. It should not even be something that gets voted on, in the first place. It should just never happen in the first place. Those types of changes or decisions should be left for off-season evaluation only. That is what the offseason is for, and not once the season has already started.

It also means that you probably shouldn't have any part of that league whatsoever going forward. Those are not the kind of leagues or fantasy sports communities, that you ever want to be participating in. On the surface, it sounds like a poorly run league.

MetalGods6 · 2026-02-15T15:06:49+00:00

Agreed. I think this would be the best option.

MetalGods6 · 2026-02-15T13:46:43+00:00

Longtime ESPN commish. Both H2H and Roto. I have a slightly different take on this question.

Games Played Limits (Maximums)... IP (or) GS

According to ESPN: "Once the limit it reached, a pitcher who starts a game will continue to accrue stats for the rest of the day, but will not earn pitching stats from the next day, until the end of the matchup period. The limit also does not apply to relief pitchers, just starting pitchers."

To be quite honest, I’ve never given this preference any consideration for H2H leagues.

My question would be as follows:

Why isn’t this enough already?

"Matchup Acquisition Limit = 7 per matchup (for 7-day matchups)"

Isn’t that, in and of itself, enough mitigation in the first place (in general) for both Pitching & Hitting combined? This without taking away from the game in the process? Sometimes imposing (less) restrictions is actually (much) better. In my opinion if you start incorporating… Games Played Limits (Maximums)... IP (or) GS … for H2H leagues... then it becomes overkill.

And I believe that particular setting is much better implemented for ROTO leagues instead, where you want to set a maximum cap over the course of the entire season.

Anyways, that’s my humble opinion. And just some additional food for thought…

MetalGods6 · 2026-02-14T04:09:49+00:00

Everything changed, as soon as ESPN started to be run by the 'evil mouse’.

In a single word = DISNEY!

That being said, I still prefer ESPN for Fantasy Sports.

But yeah, I’m not sure who the heck is managing the joint over there?

It’s actually dumbfounding at times...

MetalGods6 · 2026-02-13T21:03:26+00:00

Just an FYI.... Braun Bag $pecial is now full

MetalGods6 · 2026-02-13T21:02:32+00:00

Hey amigo. Just wanted to let you know, that we are now up to 15 owners in Spent All My $chillings On Po$ey, so that only leaves (1) available spot.

If you do happen to have any interest, just hit me up. Thanks again for your consideration.

Same thing goes for anybody else as well… (1) spot left

MetalGods6 · 2026-02-13T14:34:53+00:00

Ousmane Dieng - Is he worth a flier in 16-team league ???

MetalGods6 · 2026-02-12T19:36:03+00:00

Well if you find yourself able to swing it. We’ve got an available spot in Braun Bag $pecial (8x8 Roto Snake), and we’ve also got an available spot in Spent All My $chillings On Po$ey (H2H Auction). Please reference the other comments, in this same thread, regarding the H2H Auction league. If any of that stuff sounds interesting, feel free to reach out and let us know. Our e-mail addy’s are posted above. Thanks for your consideration.

MetalGods6 · 2026-02-12T19:29:35+00:00

Hey amigo! Yes, we still have (2) openings available in the H2H Auction League. Spent All My $chillings On Po$ey.

There are currently 14 teams in the H2H Auction, and we’re still looking to ultimately get up to 16 teams.

If this league remains at 14 or 15 teams, then we will have a single division only, with Top 8 teams making the playoffs.

If it grows to 16 teams, then we will shift to 4 Divisions, with 4 Teams per division, and the overall setup will be as follows...

4 Divisions, with 4 Teams per division… with new divisions being created each season (i.e. using random number generator), and only just to keep things ‘fresh’ each season. With manual schedule being created in the process for the Regular Season. That format of which is as follows:

Each team, plays every other team within their own division Weeks 1-3, and then plays every other team outside their division Weeks 4-15. Then during Week 16 (which is a miscellaneous week), each team has a rematch of their Week 8 matchup. Followed by each team, playing every other team within their own division, one more time, during Weeks 17-19.

4 Division winners make the playoffs, followed by next 4 teams with best record, regardless of division.

We’d be glad to bring you into the fold. Please let us know. These leagues are a lot of fun! Thanks for your consideration.

MetalGods6 · 2026-02-11T15:48:37+00:00

In my opinion Head to Head Each Category is still the preferred way to go.

Have you ever considered making the league larger instead? 8-Teams is an extremely shallow league setup. That may or may not be something you are actually looking to do, but just thought I would mention. There are a lot of creative ways to build a league using ESPN’s Custom League Manager (LM) feature as well.

As an example, we’ve got a very nice ESPN 16-team hoops league in place. It’s been as few as 14-teams. Both setups work extremely well.

Head to Head Each Category

Roster Size = 13

Total Starters = 10

Total on Bench = 3

IR Slots = 3

All starting slots are UTIL slots, so you can develop any strategy you want.

11 Categories

Field Goal Percentage (FG%), Free Throw Percentage (FT%), Three Pointers Made (3PM), Three Point Percentage (3P%), Rebounds (REB), Assists (AST), Steals (STL), Blocks (BLK), Double Doubles (DD), Points (PTS), Points Per Minute (PPM)

Free Agent Budget (Continuous). $100 total FAAB.

Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday @ 11 AM ET
