Welcome to the RSRBA 1998, Recliner Sports Rotisserie Baseball Association

Finally, baseball has arrived at Recliner Sports galactic headquarters. Transactions are at the bottom of the page.
A look back at 1991's inaugural foray.
The 1999 season.
The 2000 season The 1998 draft was held March 21 at the Goodwin residence. Unlike the RSFL draft, which goes by position, the RSRBA draft was an open one. Each of the 9 team owners drafted an AL team followed by an NL squad.
. . Scoring: Offense: Total base=2 points, RBI=3, Run scored=3, Stolen base=5, Sacrifice=10, Walk=2, Error=(-10). Pitching: Win=20, Loss=(-10), Save=10, Complete game=10, Shutout=10, No-hitter=10, Perfect game=10. Team ERA will be on a sliding scale. For weekly ERA of 4.01-4.25 you get 80 points. For each .25 below, add 5 points, for each .25 above, subtract 5 points. So 4.26-4.50 is 75, 3.76-4.00 is 85 and so on. The final category gives everyone 85 points to start each week. Subtract 1 point for each hit and walk allowed and add 1 point for each strikeout.
