Scoring Styles

Rotisserie Scoring

Using rotisserie scoring, each week stats are accumulated in one or more stat categories by the starting players in each team's starting lineup. The teams in the league then are ranked based on the totals in each stat category to determine standings. The specific stat categories used are defined in your league's specifications.

To determine standings, teams are ranked from first to last in each of the league's stat categories, and rotisserie-ranking points are assigned based on these rankings and the number of teams in the league. For instance, in a 10-team league, the team that finishes first in a category earns 10 points, the second-place team earns 9 points, and so on down to the last-place team, which earns one point. This system applies to all stat categories, each of which has equal value. Each team's rotisserie-ranking points for each stat category are added together to determine the team's total rotisserie-ranking points. To determine league standings, all teams in your league are sorted by each team's total rotisserie-ranking points, where the team with the most points is first and the team with the fewest points is last. The most rotisserie-ranking points a team in a 10-team league using 8 stat categories could earn if it finishes first in every stat category is 80 points.

Each team's stats are accumulated from week to week based on the players in the starting lineup, and the rankings then are re-calculated to determine standings. Typically rotisserie-ranking points do not carry-over from week to week.

Points-Based Scoring

Using points-based scoring, each week points are accumulated by the starting players in each team's starting lineup. The specific stat categories and points per category used are defined in your league's specifications.

To determine league standings, all teams in your league are sorted by each team's total points, where the team with the most points is first and the team with the fewest points is last. Points are accumulated from week to week, and standings are updated accordingly.

Head-to-Head Points-Based Scoring

Using head-to-head points-based scoring, each week each team in your league faces another team in your league and this is the "head-to-head" matchup. Based on the points accumulated by the players on team 1 of the matchup versus the points accumulated by the players on team 2 of the matchup, a winner and a loser of the matchup are determined. Each team's win-loss record then determines its place in the standings.

Point Scoring System

Each week points are accumulated by the starting players in each team's starting lineup. The specific stat categories and points per category used are defined in your league's specifications.

Points are calculated for each player in the starting lineup based on performance for the week. The player point totals are then added together to determine a team's point total for the week.

Head-to-Head Weekly Matchups

Based on the number of teams and/or divisions in your league, a weekly matchup schedule is defined. Based on the points accumulated by the two teams in each matchup, a winner and a loser for each matchup are determined where the winner has more points for the week than the loser. Each team's accumulated win-loss record then determines its place in the standings.

For each stat category, rotisserie-ranking points are determined by comparing the stat category totals of the two teams in each matchup. The team with the better accumulated stat total is awarded 2 rotisserie-ranking points and the other team is awarded 1 rotisserie-ranking point. For each stat category, the stat totals are compared, and 2 points or 1 point is awarded accordingly. Then for each team, the rotisserie-ranking points for all stat categories are added together, and the team with the most rotisserie-ranking points is the winner.
