Anybody else do Fantasy Baseball?

This is my second year doing it, and I'm obsessed. I'm in one very deep league, with a whopping 20 teams. Which is very cool because it takes a bit more skill as far as finding value and taking chances. I'm in another league that has just a standard 10 teams. Both teams are called the Brooklyn Dodgers. ;D

And as amazing as this team is, I'm in 2nd Place, more than 15 points behind the guy in 1st Place, because his team is flat-out RIDICULOUS. This guy has Ryan Howard, Jose Bautista, Troy Tulowitzki, Jimmy Rollins, Paul Konerko, Curtis Granderson, Lance Berkman, Dan Haren, Jered Weaver, Jair Jurrjens, Alexi Ogando, Craig Kimbrel, Joel Hanrahan, among others. To say the least, catching him is going to be a near impossible task.

Season-long teams on Yahoo, and Daily/Weekly stuff on Draftstreet. I never win.

I've been doing it since high school. I only use Yahoo.

[Tim]

Oh yeah, I should have mentioned that mine are on ESPN.

Just started this year, and have to say, it's pretty addicting.
