Fantasy valuation under different league structures
In replying to a BPro reader, I said:
I agree, it would definitely have been a bug. When I do my valuations, I don’t do a RP/SP split, and simply let the forecast and league structure dictate the value. And that value is what I said, that the top relievers would come in at 15-20$.
Now, if the league dictated that each team select at most 2 relievers, then I don’t see how you will get the top relievers at 17-20$. Maybe if you have 12 teams in an AL-only league? I’d have to work it out.
The fantasy product is blocked at the office (am I the only one? maybe something other than “fantasy” can be in the URL?), so maybe you can try this for me. Re-run forcing 1 RP, 2 RP, 3 RP, 4 RP, and then report back how much the top 6 relievers get under each setting. Just guessing, but I’m thinking the numbers should be something like 7$, 10$, 13$, 16$ respectively. Something like that. It certainly cannot be fixed.
Or, if you want to make it even clearer, do it with 1 SP, 2 SP, 3 SP, 4 SP. You should see a similar situation, where the numbers might be 10$, 14$, 18$, 22$ or something.
I’m going to lunch now, but when I get back, I might work it out myself, using my own system.
