Well we have a new manager for the team previously known as Snitker Sets My Lineups! Welcome sir.
-
Yeah, Colleen's Husband, I'll make sure your cuts are penalty free. If anyone needs to know, the password's been updated to BatteryPower because I didn't know the old password and needed to add someone to the league.

No concerns from me. We all got multiple cuts and several days to make changes, and I think you should too. Hopefully one of the commissioners can assist.
-
Upon further review of my team I found three particular individuals with whom I no longer want to be apart of my team at this time. If you guys say no I have no problem. I am just asking as I contemplate a few adjustments. Let me know. Thanks
-
agreed.
-
yeah, sounds like you guys gave it another go but to no avail.
-
At this point we should probably try the Ottoneu boards.
-
I missed that, he would have gotten my message as soon as he logged in

He commented on some stuff yesterday, but I saw it hours after so didn’t think I’d get a response. I’ll stalk today.
-
No and I haven't seen him around the site either.

Kris, any response from ATLinPHL?
-
Yeah, that’s kind of a tough one. I can’t believe no one on TC wants to join in. What can I do to help? I’ll buy the team and not use it if it helps. That’s just one suggestion don’t quote me. Just looking for solutions. I still think we have time being it is only Tuesday. Gives us three days to think about plan B,C etc and have it set up.
-
I'd say we should probably push to the Ottoneu boards at this point. If we have to make cuts, my opinion would be to base on surplus rather than total salary. Acuna is likely a positive value given our league's salary inflation. Albies, Gray, Bohm, Detmers, Murphy are all pretty clearly overpriced, with some others that are borderline including Turner. Acuna's average price is likely low from leagues that picked him up as a minor leaguer compared to a Braves league.
-
That was kind of my thinking Jobu. Since we're only talking about the scenario where someone misses the draft, they'd be better off with a legal roster full of good, overpriced players than a more empty roster of correctly priced players and no opportunity to get any more top players.

Also, I would lean toward what KMDS proposed if we went the cut route. Smaller changes to the roster would leave "capital" for the new owner to shape the team through trades, and has less potential for drama. With 12 different folks on here, not everyone may agree with who was/was not cut. Just my two cents. I'll bow to what the group or commissioners decide, and am stoked to start another season!
-
I'm not sure I like having a zombie team, and would prefer we find someone to fill it before the draft. I have a feeling the interest in taking over a team post draft is low? I really hoped he would come back, but we have to assume ATL is not coming back at this point after numerous attempts to contact them.
-
If an owner doesn’t draft they’ll be kinda screwed for that season anyway. Can we draft with a vacant team even if the roster is in a legal state?
-
I'd say just treat it like we would our team/s and err on the side of keeping the borderline guys in place. We don't want to screw over the eventual owner, so instead of just cutting the most expensive ones, just cut the ones that "should" be cut.
-
Obviously, I would wait until the last minute to do that. Thoughts?
-
I think if we don't get an owner in time, I have a plan for the draft. I am thinking of cutting the most overpaid players on the unowned team (evaluated by difference from average salary) until it becomes a legal team. Interestingly enough, that means cutting Acuna and Albies.
-
Being that our draft is Sunday, do we give ATL until end of the day to respond? If we are going to the boards, we will not only need someone to accept, but give them time to make cuts and get ready for the draft.
-
I just sent him another message. Will let you guys know if I hear back

Kris, did you have any luck contacting ATLinPHL? If not, should we resort to the Ottoneu boards?
-
Well we can't exactly NOT draft in a week. Starting our draft and season after the actual season holds a lot of problems. What we're going to do about our vacant slot considering that team is holding some good players is an open question.
-
I’ll cut it down this week. The thing is I have to do them all at once because I only have one cut.
-
Are we still planning to draft in a week? Still need a manager for Snitker and the new guy’s roster isn’t legal yet.
-
Welcome JSutton15/Colleen's Husband! Nice to see you again :) NowhereIL here, hoping to continue to give you some competition
-
You are now set up for penalty free cuts. Cut away!
-
There should be a commish tool to enable a team to have penalty free cuts, I think it’s just a “p-f cuts” check box.
-
Welcome! Hit up either Barves Way or Kyle Muller's Death Stare. We passed our cut period, so they will most likely have to manually help you cut folks.
-
Was able to cut one player and now it says I can’t cut anyone.
-
Ty and look forward to the fun. I was in talking chop part deax for the three years we had it. One twice and finished third last year. Look forward to the competition
-
Welcome JSutton15, proud new owner of Carlos Perez Forever!
-
Sent the abandoned team note to JSutton, I’ll pass along if they ask for help. I’m fine with the proposed draft day/time. Kris, can you try to message/email ATLinPHL?
-
Also I am going to set the draft for 4/3 at 7pm. We can continue to work it out, but I want to lock that down for now and get it at the top of the league screen so that if people can't make it they will hopefully speak up.
-
I was really surprised ATL didn't renew considering how active he was last year, and the progress he made
-
To be fair, do we give them the option to pick which team they want to take over, or are we still giving ATLinPHL more time to respond?
-
Probably the easiest way for him to join is to go to the abandoned teams list, ctrl+F "Carlos Perez Forever" and the league password is talkingchop
-
Agreed! Here's a preemptive welcome to JSutton!
-
Sounds good to me.
-
Didn’t get an answer from ATLinPHL, but JSutton15 wants in. Apparently 2 time league winner in the other league and very active, so I say we let them rebuild Ivan’s team.
-
I can probably send a message or find an email address for ATLinPHL if you can’t get in touch with him. Just let me know

Talked to Ivan, he would prefer to be replaced. Trying to ask ATLinPHL on the site previously known as TC, we’ll see if I get an answer.
-
If Snit and Ivan aren't back in rajah on TC offered the emails from the league that folded if we wanted to recruit those folks. Just said to email him, he was the commish last season.
-
It's honestly going to be hard for me to take.part in the auction draft with my work schedule. Probably wasn't going to win anyway though so lol what's different.
-
I'm available any of the Sunday nights mentioned (3/20, 3/27, 4/3)
-
I'm pretty sure I can do 4/3. 3/20 depends on the time.

I think I'm leaning 4/3. Gives us a little more time to get these free agents signed as well.
-
At this point I'm good for 3/19-20, 26-27, or 4/2-3. I've got two toddlers running around though so the later the better for me. Much easier to focus after they're in bed by 8.
