Auction league - NL Only question

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version

   Has anyone who has already drafted in an NL only league noticed any real changes in draft pricing with Houston no longer being part of the draft pool?  I had first thought that there might be some real differences but then I realized, who had ANY Astros on their team to begin with?  :)  Seriously, anything you all have noticed?  Thanks!

	I actually found it annoying last season having so many Astro players available in free agency...pretty much the entire team was clogging it up :)

	Altuve was the only good player. In my 10-12 teamers this year I think only two Astors will be drafted. Altuve and Veras just because he is a closer.

	We actually dropped our roster size by 2 to account for less players in the NL.

	Thanks for the replies! I hear ya on the lack of Astros on anyone's roster...one reason I'm not too concerned. Was pretty curious though to see if anyone noticed a difference.

	We didn't change roster size and noticed nothing different. Like someone already said, Altuve is the only Astro worth having (maybe Norris, but he is a pitcher and I don't value SP very high anyway).
