-
All teams NOT coming back will be abandoned at the same time.
-

-
Congratulations to Cos.
-
Thanks all let’s run it back next year
-
well done cosby sweaters, youve done it again. good win. good game.
-
congrats to cosby, commish please abandon my team.
-
Scherzer still available. At some point I will just drop as I can better use the salad elsewhere, even for this season.

Would love to move will Smiths saves and Bogaerts/Anderson/Vaughn for relief and lottery ticket like MCB
-
Going drop Correa in the next 48 hours. Will trade him for equivalent cap space ($11) and player I think is better than available waiver wire.

That's why I asked? Thx
-
This is not a permission granted transaction when you spend $100 per season to manage a team.
-
It means ... wtf haven't you been picking up SPs all season? lol
-
What does that even mean? I've been setting lineups just don't have the innings and didn't want my lack of IP to impact the standings.
-
I object to you not doing so at your whim all season prior to not given your inference that you haven't been
-
Any objections if I pick up some SPs to up my IP?
-
time to eat. great luck!
-
Gonna throw it out there again. Anyone want Seager or Chapman or a closer? Got some available if anyone wants to go in.

Looking to sell off some of the win now pieces I have(admittedly it’s not too much). Any interest in my closers, Morton, Seager or my 3B, send an offer!

Sweaters already broke. I’d focus on hellbenders
-
looking to win. looking to break cosby sweaters. looking for offensive upgrades. if you think your team cant keep pace, it might be worth considering selling some pieces or exchanging parts. i might have a tighter list and ask than some, but im here open, listening, willing. good luck to your franchises.
-
Situation is that I'm setting lineup only and won't be making any transactions. Shouldn't have said anything to IL and shouldn't have said inactive. Good luck folks.
-
As far as WTF's team, I don't know what the situation is - maybe the commish can clarify for us. But I do know that being commissioner sucks and I appreciate anyone who is willing to do it and put up with all the crap that comes with it, so I'd be inclined to give a little benefit of the doubt.
-
I can't speak for others, but whether people are "staying mute" or just "not engaging with your message board rants" seems like an open question. As far as the trade complaint, trade review is a standard part of Ottoneu rules, 7 of your fellow owners exercised their right to vote against the deal pursuant to those rules, and it was voted down. Not much else to say, rules were followed, I suggest you move on.
-
I thought we were all staying mute on the topic of the trade that shouldn't have been vetoed and the cry baby antics that followed? And definitely not talking about the requested inactivity of a crybaby owner v. turning the team over to an interested manager ... We aren't discussing that on the board. Clearly.
-
While I appreciate the engagement, still kind of feels like the rest of the league is running my team. I haven't updated my trade block.

All jokes aside, I do think it’s unfortunate that MC can’t manage the team the way he sees fit. He is clearly itching for a deal and everyone else in the league seems to be itching for action, so why don’t we all make an offer for his guys at the same time and let the best man win. Full disclosure, I will be making my own offer right now. Can I guarantee it will be good? No. Come beat it!
-
That is a good point. On the flip side, 3 of the 6 guys in your return were cut within 2 weeks, Manoah looks like a shell of himself, Mead has a 56 wRC+ in AAA, and Moreno still swings a wet noodle for a bat. And you still have Trout. No harm no foul?
-
Scherzer's trade value only going up. Thanks for helping me out everyone: Scherzer has admitted that he's still pitching with discomfort below his right scapula, Dan Martin and Mike Puma of the New York Post report.
Scherzer first injured his shoulder last month and had a start pushed back, although he never went on the injured list.... His effectiveness and ability to not aggravate the injury are in question, though. Scherzer sports a 5.56 ERA in five starts this season.

how about u stimulate my dusty ass, dork
-
hence my whole RIP to competitive league. I can simulate consensus opinions all day long on MLB The Show or w/e. This dusty ass league needs to face some music one way or the other. Humoring a secure status quo trash tho.
-
I’m guessing the reason it’s become inactive is because the league now has to decide which deals can and can’t happen, or wtf or someone else will cry when a deal they don’t like goes down. I’ve given up on making offers since that debacle, and plan to manage my team through free agency.
-
Sticky issues aren't fun but this league has one thing going for it, and that is competition. It's been among the best of Otto for ages, Cosby with his recent shiny crown a great example. Turding out a dead roster for a season is stupid and bad and honestly the MC and Cosby trade should've happened. As it stands it's my least active league and that's been the inverse over the years.
-
Trying to make trade and get told "I'm waiting this out for NYSwallows benefit as requested so there isn't the same issue that you had last season with Cos' buddy Sho Time. I'm inactive and will be dropped a end of season." --- that is not best for the league or competitive
-
Okay, so, like, if WTF is gone and leaving end of season, why are we not opening up the team for a new manager to compete moving forward. A locked team/roster/manager is not the best outcome.
-
we're all just waiting on the paperwork to go through
-
Is WTF playing? Normally he's the one that chimes in on needing a valid roster.
-
No worries MC, I wasn’t going to offer up anything good anyways. You have receipts to prove that. I love to send junk.
-
True. I’ve also been having trouble getting a new stadium built. I’ll be in Vegas by 2027, look out then.

MCs, Oakland punts years in advance and no one minds.

Paging: In order to act like a real MLB team when considering the timing of my trades, as apparently I'm supposed to do, I will be factoring in stadium attendance, season ticket renewal rates, tv ratings, the latest on the tax incentives my city gov't. is considering offering, and a host of other factors that are similarly impactful in this league, before making any trades that make my team worse this season, but in my estimation better next season. Come back to me in July I guess.

So a couple more hours then?
-
TOO SOON! Grab your pitchforks everyone, paging wants to have transactions again!
-
How long is appropriate to wait before I send bad trade offers for the same players in the deals that were vetoed?
-
😭😭😭
-
Very funny to read these messages so soon after all the empty threats to leave the league. As though you could ever do that - if you did, who would you talk to about how awesome you are? I imagine all 11 of the rest of us could quit and you'd still be here shouting “I’m the best!” into the void. I do appreciate the clarification though, I know your league mates are very invested in all the details of your “chips”.
-
Sorry, 4 of the last 6. Details details.
