Last Minute Fantasy baseball invitation

Hi Everyone,

Sorry  to crowd the landscape here, but I'm down to a couple days before the season and I'm desperate for a player or two for our league.  Right now we have 8, so we just need two more.

The league is a weekly Head-to-Head points based scoring system hosted at Cbs sportsline.com (which is a stellar fantasy site).  It's also AL/NL so it's a deep league and your team is not ruined by injuries per se.

Basically, here are the two catches.  We would like to make a $10 collection per team to pay the winner and runner up prize money.  This also keeps teams involved throughout the season.  But, bottom line, we play for fun.  If you have reservations about paying the $10 over paypal, let me know and we'll working something out.

The second is, you must keep your lineup active and arranged all season.  The reason we only have 8 players is because we don't want casual players.  Although it is for fun, we still want it to be competitive through the end of the season.  If you know you cannot live up to this, then that's okay.  But if you still think you can will your team to the playoffs by free agent pickups and trades, then we want you in our league.

Please email me if you have interest, and we can work out the details.  You can reach me at bpcubs02 AT hotmail DOT com - of course, get rid of the spaces and actually put the punctuation in where it  fits.

Thank you for reading. -Brad

Does Soriano's defense at 2B really cost more runs than in LF?  He makes a lot fewer errors in LF since misplays and mental mistakes aren't figured into the stats, but I have to imagine that his mistakes are more physical at 2B.  Any thoughts?  Is there a statistic on this?
