I'm on Yahoo Fantasy Baseball but I'm unclear of the rules.

I somehow drafted 5 top pitchers, CC Sabathia, Justin Verlander, Daisuke Matsuzaka, Brad Penny and John Maine.

How exactly does the pitching scoring go? Should or can I activate Matsuzaka for tomorrow's game, remove him and then put in Sabathia and Verlander or am I limited to only 2 active starting pitchers for the week?

Thanks for answering a newbie.

I can't find that info anywhere.

I'm assuming it's set at default. It's Yahoo fantasy baseball.

You have to read your leagues specific rules.

Your pitching lineup has the potential to be disgustingly destructive. Damn you.

That was actually because I had to auto draft and for some reason, I didn't get position players I wanted and kept getting pitchers. I arrived home in time to pick up some position players but didn't get any outfielders until the 10th round. I ended up with some decent guys but I'll probably need to tweak it a bit more.

I've looked around everywhere on the Yahoo site and our league site but can't find anything. I'll just start Matsuzaka today and see if I can swap him out later. I could be doing worse.

under the league tab click on settings

it'll list everything you want to know.

what you'll probably want to watch for stat categories and max innings pitched. Obviously the trick will be to get the best possible stats in the innings allowed. You can't go *over* it's that once your pitchers (SP/relief/whatev) total 1250 those will be your final stats (i.e. win/k/saves/era/whip).

Can always trade a stud pitcher for offense

There are 10 teams total and its head to head. The league autodrafted for me until the 10th round based on my list but it picked 5 pitchers in a row without picking an outfielder.
