So when a MLB team trades off its high salary players, starts rebuilding with prospects and puts themselves in a better financial position to sign guys to build a team around, they're tanking it?!

If you're so enamored with winning then read my post again - if a team is rebuilding (you call it tanking), then you are more than likely winning if you're playing against them. If your team is built good enough and you do your homework - you'll keep winning, so why the fuss?

If guys are fighting for position in the bottom six (organized by PB), why do I care if I'm sitting at the end of the round? If I do my homework, I'll get a sleeper late in the round.

I picked up my team two years ago - I had Pedro Martinez and then Osvaldo Fernandez! First move, traded Pedro. I got two young 200 inning pitchers and lowering my PB where I was sitting in the drivers seat in the monthly drafts - did I tank it? I played my home games with just as much intensity then as I do now. I think the fun of keeper leagues is rebuilding and constantly sustaining.

If there is one thing I've learned its that people play this game in different ways - some guys love trades, some guys love scouting prospects, some guys like collecting guys that would make for a good baseball card collection - the similarity is that they all want to win. I denounce thowing games on purpose by sitting regulars and all the obvious behavior, but whining about guys shedding PB is simply bashing how a person (very much within the rules) likes to spend their $9.95/month.
