I am motivated to trade if anyone is interested. Updated my block.
-
Thanks. I doubt I’ll win… competition is too fierce. Just want to survive the first round so I can get some $. Not sure my current team is optimized for winning this league. Too pitching heavy and too many marginal players gathered for OPL.
-
Good luck! Congrats on making the big dance. Hopefully you win that and don’t feel a need to win anything else 😉
-
Team name change for the OPL tournament. FYI
-
Miranda’s injury is lower back tightness so it doesn’t appear serious. He is expensive at $16 but has been solid. You can always try to claim him or get in an auction.
-
I either need to move Miranda or cut him bc he is going on IL with a back issue. If anyone wants him let me know.
-
Open to trades as I am on the edge of possibly making the OPL tournament. I am looking for some SP. It doesn’t have to be top tier guys. Just usable SP. Take a look and let me know. Any trades have to be done this weekend as rosters will be locking.
-
Still looking to trade Gallen. Have a little more than 24 hours before OPL rosters freeze for next round. So if it doesn’t happen before then I’ll be keeping him. I’d need a solid (really solid) bat or a mid range SP and mid range bat in return.
-
Anyone have more than 15 players on the DL?

With Gallen going to miss a little time with his hamstring he is less useful to me in OPL. I’d take 75c on the dollar if someone wants him for the second half run. Otherwise I’ll hold him.
-
I hear George Springer is out there! Probably very cheap.

My $9 Kirby is on the block as I’m looking to replace Acuna with an impact bat.
-
I also agree it is not a big deal but like I said before I don’t like the way it looks. I don’t think Springer needs to be placed back on 9Fngrs team. If anyone feels different just let me know.
-
I’m not trying to make more of this than what it is, that explanation from Lgn9Fngrs makes sense to me. Was mostly confused and wondering if there was more agreed to in the trade than what we saw. No issue from my perspective.
-
If it is possible and will make amends in some small way, maybe put GS back on my team and I will keep him for a minimum amount of time agreed upon by the rest of the league. I am sorry for causing this controversy and I take full responsibility. Please accept my sincere apologies.
-
I am not quite sure what I was thinking, but this is definitely totally on me. In my own head I have been wishy-washy about selling off or remaining in the hunt. Hell's was up front that he would be cutting GS immediately. After the fact I thought, what the hell, I'll get him back at 1/2 price -or- better yet, someone will out bid me and I'll avoid making a decision. No one outbid me and when it came time for a cut I was at work and didn't think it through and cut GS causing this whole fiasco.
-
I sent this to Nardi privately but for transparency I’ll put it on the board.
I really wish he hadn’t done that. Technically it’s not against any rules and I know it’s happened in other leagues. I just don’t like the optics of it especially as commissioner. I’m more focused on building a team for OPL than I am in maximizing my lineup for this league hence the moves to accrue money.
-
It is weird. Maybe he can clarify his thought process.
-
I can understand a manager trading away and then auctioning him after he was cut from who he traded him to since it’s a better price and could be worth it.
The immediate cut does seem weird though.
-
I’m not sure why he would claim him then immediately cut him. Nothing was discussed about Springer other than that I was going to cut him as soon as the trade went through. Had I known he was going to do something like that I would have told him not to bc it looks shady and that is the last thing I want.
-
Lgn9Fngrs nommed and immediately cut him after the trade went through. Just not sure I see the point of that part unless it was part of the trade.
-
I’m not sure what you mean. I posted on my block that I was looking to move $3 Adell for an overpriced/underperforming player for cap space. What is interesting?
-
Interesting series of events there. Was there more to the George Springer trade to also clear the cap penalty for Hell’s Rainbow?
-
Does anyone have interest in a $1 Jackson Jobe? I don't want to carry him into this next round of OPL but he is too good of a prospect to cut. If so let me know. He needs to be traded by the 15th if he is going anywhere.
-
If you are building towards next year I am looking to move some young, inexpensive players for OPL pieces. Could use higher end RP and expensive bats or SP you might not be keeping. See my trade block if interested
-
I love that it seems like all owners are into competing. I think all teams are well balanced and have a shot. That said, if any team is looking to focus on next year, I have tons of young guys that are on the top of the prospect rankings. I would be up for moving them for a solid staff. DM me if you want or send an offer
-
Commish wanted me to let everyone know that he got called out of town for work on short notice.
In the unlikely event that something of a time sensitive nature arises over the next 2-3 days, please reach out to me directly and I will do what I can to address it.

Make that 11 players

Good draft everyone...Thanks!
-
Draft is starting. If you aren't in the room please get there
-
Lastly everyone will be expected to make their nominations. No skipping. I understand that mistakes happen so nobody will be penalized for accidentally missing a nomination. If you repeatedly miss your nomination (multiple single infractions or 2-3x in a row you will be removed from the draft. You will have to finish filling out your team through FAAB. Nobody will be allowed to draft $1 players at the end if they have been removed. Just wanted that spelled out clearly.
-
The draft is this Sunday March 10 at 12pm EST. Daylight Savings is Saturday into Sunday so we will spring ahead 1 hour so adjust accordingly. If you cannot attend the draft and you need help finding a proxy let me know. If you have any issues during the draft (sudden internet outage) text me at (585) 298-6031 so I can pause things.
-
Hi all, there is an opening in another league I’m in ($100 H2H FGPts) if anybody would be interested. League 880 - The 40/40 Club, team is House of Learned Doctors. Thanks!
-
A pretty good team in one of my other leagues needs an owner. It’s a $100 H2H League with really active owners. Solid pitching core with some interesting bats. If anyone is interested the team can be claimed. The team name is Manfred’s Minions and the league is PSAL.

The Doodle Poll is/was pretty clear on dates and times. 11/12 owners said that the 10th at noon worked. I understand we all have preferences and our lives get inthe way. It’s nearly impossible to coordinate 12 different schedules perfectly. If we move it to 2:30 Lollygag isn’t available. Then it becomes a game of whack-a-mole chasing dates and times. For simplicity sake the draft date/time is staying as was voted on… March 10th, 12PM
-
Good for me
-
Believe I’m unavailable after 3 that day but would prefer a later than noon start.
-
2:30 is good with me.
-
I’m ok with it as well.
-
Is anyone opposed to changing the draft time to 2:30PM on March 10th? Please just respond here on the message board.
-
I’m good with it.
-
Sorry to be ‘that guy’, but if no one is opposed, a later draft time would do wonders for me. Is there any chance we can push the start time to 2 or 2:30?
Apologies to be difficult commish…

The Draft Date has been set for Sunday , March 10th at 12PM
-
So far March 10th or the 17th have everyone or nearly everyone available. It is going to be one of those two days. Still waiting on 2 owners to let me know which date works better for them. A final decision will be set when I hear back from them. If I don't hear back by tomorrow morning I will set the date so we can be done with this.
-
I’d even prefer a weekday night to be honest. Even if it meant starting at 7 rather than 6:30

I don’t mind doing weekdays either but if there’s any chance we could have it from 6-9 instead that would help me out. I’m 5 hours ahead in the uk

That's correct, but whatever the date and time, I will try to make it (3 spots but 141$ to spend). Thanks for great job Commish
-
I could make a weekday evening work, if needed.
