BP Fantasy Baseball est. 2008 (Current Champion = Ahiacitian - Draft Wed., March 11, 7PM)

I don’t understand separating out the OPS (on-base + slugging) into two separate categories. Why is this preferred to the current average and OPS? I like combining a traditional old-school stat like batting average, where there is a little luck and chance involved, with the OPS stat that rewards disciplined hitters with extra base hit capabilities. IMO, the current hitting categories are ideal.

I do understand updating some of the pitching categories. My preferred pitching categories are the following:
W - traditional old-school category where there is a little luck and chance involved
QS - rewards good starting pitchers that can make it deeper into games
Saves + holds - Combine the two categories to de-emphasize relievers
ERA
WHIP
K/9 - rewards quality pitchers in general either SP or relievers. I get where K/BB also does that too so don’t have strong feelings either way here.

Pitching?

ERA

Wins
K/BB

Hitting?

HR
OBP
SLG
Net SB - What sucks about Net SB is you will receive a -1 for a caught stealing. I have played with this category in a former league and didn’t care for it because of this aspect of it.
Runs
XBH - Is this category necessary with HR and SLG already? Would it be better to keep RBI?

I would suggest these tweaks, but otherwise look good to me.
Thoughts tweaks comments?
