Can anyone here give me some tips on fantasy baseball?

1 Answer

Answer :

Does your league have any limits on how many players you can drop or add per week? Also, if you could post the players on the team you drafted, that would help us give better advice. Not all Fantasy Teams manage the same way—if you got a lot of good hitters, you’ll have to play the league differently than if you got good pitchers.
