This weekend is the National Fantasy Baseball Championship (NFBC) live event in Las Vegas. BABS is accompanying me for four days of NFBC contests—let's go through our checklist.
We are not talking about Matt Shaw, Kumar Rocker or Bubba Chandler—“sleepers” who are on everyone's draft list. Rather, here are some no-timers with skills who are rarely drafted outside of 50-team draft and holds or dynasty formats.
A Salary Cap contest is one where players are assembled into a roster within a total salary cap. BABS works extremely well for this format, to help us construct the optimum team.
A step-by-step approach to an auction: from gathering tools, analyzing players and setting our budget, identifying player targets, and most importantly, completing the desired roster.
BABS has an excellent history for identifying highly skilled performers in the later rounds of drafts. Let’s explore the multi-asset players that BABS ranks well above their current ADP who could become difference makers.
Knowing which players to PASS on is a crucial element of our BABS draft plan. The asset groups help us AVOID those players being selected in the early rounds who have insufficient skills to justify the prices that the market is paying.
Risk is unavoidable, but if we examine the player pool and marketplace from a high-end perspective, we can better prepare to avoid or embrace risk when necessary.
