Todd Zola and the crew at Mastersball list the bids and write about them every week, and this week, too.
Jeff Erickson surveys the leagues he plays in FAAB results, which included Tout NL.
Mike Gianella’s BP FAAB round up is now posted at http://www.baseballprospectus.com/article.php?articleid=26451.
Greg Ambrosius (@GregAmbrosius) is! But he’s just a nip ahead of Adam Ronis (@AdamRonis), with Perry Van Hook within shouting distance.
Greg is riding fantastic starting pitching from Sonny Gray, Madison Bumgarner, Dan Haren, Shelby Miller, Max Scherzer and Jonathan Niese, while waiting for Kenley Jansen to return and help Drew Storen shore up the saves.
Team Ambrosius’s offense is led by Anthony Rizzo, Dee Gordon, and Nelson Cruz. Not bad!

This year, for the first time, Tout Wars Mixed Draft owners will be able to redeem the draft day “price” of a player for FAAB dollars, if a player he owns goes on the Disabled List. The rule reads, in part:
If a player who was bought in the auction is placed on a major league disabled list, 7-day, 15-day or 60-day, his Tout Wars team may release him and ask his SWAT to add the player’s auction salary back to this year’s FAAB. In the Mixed Draft league, players will be given dollar values based upon the prices paid in the Mixed Auction league. For instance, the first player drafted will take the value of the most expensive player taken in auction. Similarly, the 20th player drafted will have the price of the 20th most expensive player bought in auction, regardless of position.
The Redemption Price List can be found here.
