How to Maintain Competitive Balance in Your Keeper and Dynasty League

How to Maintain Competitive Balance in Your Keeper and Dynasty League

Good on you. Yes, you. You decided to take the step forward and run a keeper league or a dynasty baseball league. It’s fun. It’s challenging. And, it’s a lot of work.

There are a lot of issues that can come up when running a league, and one of the hardest things to do is to get a group of people together who have the same passion as you do — and to get them to stick around for the long run.

I’ve seen — and joined — many startup dynasty leagues that went up in smoke after the first year. It’s what comes with the territory, really, but it sucks for those who took the “prospects only” approach in their draft. But those who went the win-now route with those old, boring veterans were fanning themselves with their winnings.

However, say you have the core group that you need to make your keeper or dynasty league successful and longstanding. What can you do to ensure that there is a semblance of competitive balance year over year? Here are some lessons that I’ve learned from both keeper and dynasty leagues on how to keep it straight down the middle for everyone.
