The commish will usually just open up a second account and let it autodraft. We've done the same in the past.
Edit: and now we are 8. _________________

So are there 8 people playing or is one an autodraft loser? _________________ I'm sorry and I apologize are the same thing.

Well, it's an auto player, but the last few times we did that to keep things even the auto-player ended up with a great lineup. _________________

So, can we trade with this autoplayer, provided the trades are fair? _________________ I'm sorry and I apologize are the same thing.

Wow, saber metrics, I follow baseball and I don't even know what all those categories are. _________________ Legendary Locke

Me neither really Locke. I mean, I know WHAT they are, but not who's good for them. I took Ichiro first overall because he is one of the best hitters and always does good in most non-HR categories. After that Jimmy Rollins fell to me. If he has anything close to the season he had last year, he'll be an awesome addition to my team.
I think my team overall is pretty sweet. Helton gets walks, Ichiro gets a lot of hits and a lot of my players get decent XBH. As for pitching, I'm satisfied. I dunno if my players are K/9 or BB/9 or H/9 decent, but my pitchers get wins and I imagine winning games requires low BB and H/9. _________________ I'm sorry and I apologize are the same thing.

I wasn't big on sabermetrics a couple yeats ago but the guy who runs the league is a big proponent of it and has gradually taught me its advantages when it comes to evaluating players. A lot of fantasy leagues have begun moving towards sabermetrics to make players become better drafters. There will always be the big names like A-Rod, Pujols and the like but some 5-tool players like Utley, Wright and Freel may get lose behind the scenes when they're almost as good as players as A-Rod and Pujols.
I'd say for those still new to playing a sabermetrics-heavy fantasy league to wait a couple weeks to see how the stats work then if you're team is deficient in any spot you'll have a better idea who to try and trade for and/or pick up on the free agency list. _________________
