Daily blurb
The RotoGuru site was founded on analysis of full-season, salary cap fantasy sports games. Over the years, that format has attracted fewer and fewer participants, and most of the game producers are either out of business, or offering games greatly reduced in scope (and prizes).

The salary cap game du jour is now the daily contest. That has been a difficult conversion for many RotoGuru users, who preferred the “marathon” of the full season games, and who find the daily format to be a bit too “random.” The RotoGuru affiliate site DailyBaseballData.com has enjoyed tremendous growth over the past two years, now getting more than triple the traffic volume that RotoGuru.net attracts.

Weekly contests might be a viable format to bridge the gap between the full-season games and daily contests. And Draft$treet offers weekly contests starting every day, with varying numbers of entrants, entry fees (including free), and prize payouts. The skills that were developed and honed in full-season games with weekly trades are very similar to the skills needed to compete effectively in weekly contests.

Setting a weekly roster is not just a matter of finding pitchers with two starts, or hitters with seven games. Draft$treet’s player pricing fully reflects projected starts and team schedules, so that a pitcher with two starts will cost twice as much as a comparable pitcher with one start. A hitter with just five games scheduled will be priced proportionately cheaper than a hitter with seven games. So you really have to evaluate your roster choices primarily in terms of baseball analysis, and not schedule analysis. And that should be where RotoGurupies excel. Of course, you also have the familiar RotoGuru sortable stats to help you sniff out emerging trends and bargains.
