I hope no one had Tucupita Marcano on their watch list.
-
Yep! That is exactly what it is. BRB, time to go nominate all my old cuts from the beginning of the season.
-
Not sure exactly what you're referencing, but often players will nominate old cuts to eliminate the cap penalties. This article kinda gets into: https://fantasy.fangraphs.com/ottoneu-101-navigating-ottoneu-cap-space/

So - is there some kind of strategy I'm missing? Win an auction then immediately cut that player? Is this a - "I can't have him, so neither can you" kind of thin.
-
If anyone is wondering, John McMillon has 5.1 IP in AAA ball this season and has walked 12 guys. Only one homer, though.
-
haha, we have a long list ourselves, so eventually we'll get one and stop spamming the bid board.

Sorry Dansby. Wish we could expand to 100 man rosters so I could just rostering 40 relief pitchers that I like I’m crushing on.
-
Tex: rude...

Well, it was fun while it lasted, guess there's always next year. -SD

Day 1 Champs!!! - SD
-
Trout's back, baby!
-
Woof. Espino with another shoulder surgery and out till mid-2025. Guy hasn't pitched since like 2021 and even then it was on 49 innings. What terrible luck for him.
-
My wife just texted me about this! This is bonkers.
-
Soooo, does exposure on potential federal money laundering charges get us a trade discount for Ohtani?
-
We've got a small Discord server for another league I'm in. I plan on watching the game in a few hours. If you're into Discord, feel free to join and chat if anything cool happens. https://discord.com/invite/5Fd2wKgS
-
Remember to get those lineups set today if you have any players in the SD/LAD game tomorrow!
-
That's the most balanced and straightforward trade I've seen in a long time.
-
About to send Trout, Machado, and Acuña to Twosies for Matthew Liberatore. I tried to stay away but I just can't.
-
It'll change shortly, but Just A Guy has a perfect roster right now. $400, 40/40 players.
-
Hey all, draft is starting imminently!
-
on my way

Thanks for the heads up, Twosies! we'll aim for a 705 start. I'll be joining from a lecture hall and should be able to participate in full until 755 or so, when I'll need to dash off to teach a class. my students will be working on an assignment that is due tomorrow, so I may be able to pop in and out if I can't fill my 8 roster spots in the first hour. I hope you all won't hold it against me if I miss a nom or two while switching classrooms or interacting with students, etc.
-
If we start him at $1 and only bid in $1 increments every 14 seconds, we might make it. If not, I have a list of middling $1 relievers that can eat some time.
-
So you're saying throw up Trout at exactly 7:00pm EDT?
-SD
-
Message received, we'll try to hold off on the start.
-
hey all was hoping to be able to work from home tomorrow but it did not happen. My train gets into the station at 7 exactly and I live about five minutes away so if you can wait five minutes to start the draft, amazing, if not, no worries. Thank you.

Sounds great, can't wait!
-
Hearing no objections, we're locking in 3/13 at 7 PM EST as the draft date. Happy prepping and looking forward to the leagues 14th draft!
-
Works for me as well
-
That time is fine with me.
-
Sounds good

Good at 7:00PM over here! Actually even better for me, so thanks Urbina!
-
Works for me

3/13 is good with me

Would anyone have an issue with starting at 7 PM EST on 3/13? Urbina could make the first part of the draft of we started at 7 PM EST and that day appears to work for everyone else. Please respond ASAP if a 7 PM EST start on 3/13 would cause an issue. We will look to lock in that date tomorrow based on the feedback.
-
we only managed to get the last set of dates from our stragglers in the last 24 hours, so I agree, this Sunday is probably too short notice. we've got a good number of dates with 10 of 11 consensus though so we are currently speaking with a few owners to see what we can do to make it work (two of the dates are me, and as I said earlier I'm prepared to skip if need be to ensure we have a draft). we are still confident we will have a draft locked in by the end of the weekend.
-
Was just looking at the poll results and am getting a bit worried about urgency. Unless I'm wrong, everyone's responded to the doodles (other than Papi, of course) and it looks like this Sunday evening is currently the only time where every team can be represented. Other than that, dates that line up are very scarce.
-
We're close, tracking down the last stragglers. Goal is to lock in a date by this weekend.
-
any news on a draft? just want to make sure I keep the time free

Exactly, thanks
-
We've stalled out at eight responses. We ask that the final four teams please respond to the poll so that we can get our date locked. Big Papi, knowing how many teams you manage, should we just schedule based on everyone else and hope you can make it?
-
@Frying You're probably grabbing the " - February" in my initial message. Reformatted below to fix that issue. @AHWT it looks like you only completed availability for March. Please fill out February as well. Alex from Dansby's submitted twice on March, so the one with no availability will be disregarded. Please complete the Doodle if you haven't already! Let's get this on the books.

What I had to do was click on an available date (circle in blue, may have to go to the next month). Then enter name and email, then click Book it. Then on the next screen, you can click "Change your response" and it will let you click like a traditional doodle poll.

Not sure what I'm doing incorrectly, but I'm not able to see the polls on Doodle. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
-
I submitted mine and Steve's. The days I accepted, both of us are available. The days I said maybe, only Steve is. My availability is tight. Thanks!

I filled out both without issue from what I could tell, but let me know if my inputs goofed anything up.
