I have tentatively set the draft for February 23. I will be reaching out to the 2 managers who haven't responded to the poll and the 1 maybe to confirm
-
Friday February 23rd is looking good on the poll! 10 responses in, zero No's.

I've heard from 5 of the other 10 managers and it seems the league is in agreement that we'll follow the written rules and not process any trades at this time. I'll coordinate with Horace to get that round of penalty free cuts in.
In the meantime, please complete the auction draft date survey if you haven't. If you believe additional slots or times need to be added, please let me know and I'll add.

I agree with Votto's Last Stand and Sometimes Maybe Good

Agreed. Get the team legit, and we can schedule the draft.

I say get it legit and then just leave it. The auction will take care of the rest. Would be hard to ensure good trades. Hopefully someone claims that team.

My preference is always just to follow the written rules as closely as possible - so cuts to get the roster legal as soon as possible then no transactions until the draft. I think *discussing* trades is obviously fine at any time, but the assymetric negotiating an illegal roster enables is a weird situation to me, so I'd just prefer for all teams to be legal asap.
-
I will ask for the league to chime in but my lean would be that you get the roster compliant and then can discuss straight trades with no loans for a small window (to offset claiming the team after the deadline - previous owner fault)?
If the league thinks the roster should be fully locked out beyond cuts - that can be the path.
Looking for a number of managers to chime in here
-
This would be purely for knowing who to allocate to each team after the draft. If someone wanted Burnes for a $20 player (for example) and have the rest covered by a loan from me, that’s kind of the structure of deal I’m looking at right now. So they get Burnes at the cost of the player they are trading, and don’t have to bid for him in auction
-
There are no trades until after the auction
-
Corbin Burnes, Mason Miller, and Christian Yelich are on the block. I’d be willing to cover cost difference in a potential deal for anyone interested
-
Please find and complete the poll at your earliest convenience. I have the earliest auction date set for 2 weeks from now ranging to the week before opening day.

Welcome aboard Horace Grant. Let me know if you have any questions or require any assistance!

Hi all. Taking over Got Matsui and curious of any interest in players currently on the team before making cuts. I'll be looking to make the cuts pronto. Thank you
-
Later this week I'll be sending out a poll for dates and times for the auction this year. Based on the player count we are likely looking at a 2.5 hour draft. I'll "book" for a 3 hour window to be safe but as we are all experienced, it should be a quicker draft.
-
Hi everyone, I apologize for the lack of updates and reminders the last 2 months. Very busy time but I should be more active now.
As for where the league stands, we had 2 teams not renew this offseason.
Unfortunately Got Matsui did not make their team cap compliant before cut down day. Unless there are any creative solutions, I think that the new manager will have the slight advantage of knowing the player pool while making their cuts upon claiming the team.
-
Any plan for getting Got Matsui's roster legal?
-
Welcome to the league guys!

Same here, just joined a few weeks ago! My arb was done before I joined - I know it’s last minute but is there any way I can edit the allocations that were in place? Thanks!
-
Best of luck MM - i just joined too!

Hello! Just claimed Kibbles n Mitts (now Midnight Marauders). Completed arb and looking forward to making some trades this off-season.

Going to need to abandon, sorry all. I wasn't able to participate actively at all and let you all down this year
-
Hey y’all I’m going to cut back leagues so you can abandon my team thanks

unfortunately it's probably time for me to throw in the towel this season - I'll take offers for just about anyone on my roster if I can some decent future pieces out of the deal
-
I stand with Birdpeople here. Let’s have valid trade offers or no trade offers at all.

Sorry that does not mean I want to trade judge for players you don’t want . If you feel like that comment is towards you in particular don’t because you were not alone offering trash heaps for maybe the best hitter in baseball.

Time to pack it in for the year pretty much whole team on block for keeper pieces. Prefer quality over quantity and will lose a deal in a vacuum for elite keeper pieces
-
JD Martinez available for cap space essentially if anybody is interested.

Looking to swap an OF for a 3B ideally with positional versatility

Looks like the draft is still set to "in progress", which is preventing us from starting FA auctions
-
Didn,t know the daft was tonight, mixed it up with other drafts
-
I think the auction has to be unpaused or ended so we can make roster moves.
Side note- Díaz is available too

Elite baseball prospect Gavin Lux on the block. ACL is an overrated body part anyway.

We have a finalized draft date and time (still haven't confirmed with the 12th team but hopefully they can make it work).
It will be Wednesday March 15th @ 7pm. I'll send some more tips/general info ahead of the draft.
You may enter the draft room at any time and familiarize yourself and set your watchlist.
-
Based on feedback, I have created a March 4 - March 19 window with Tuesdays and Thursdays excluded. All draft times begin at 7pm EST. The link to the poll is here: https://xoyondo.com/dp/UtBOqtuhqm9qPGA
Please complete at your earliest convenience so we can lock in the date. Thank you and reach out if you have any questions about the upcoming auction, the poll, or the league in general!

Agree - later on weekdays or weekends are generally good
-
Same here
-
Evenings (6 PM eastern or later) and weekends generally work for me
-
I can usually make evenings work.

(accidental post before finishing the message)
Keep in mind that this draft should be a maximum of 3 hours and could be as quick as 2 hours. Post a message if you have any questions or concerns about the draft and I'll do my best to address them.
Looking forward to the draft!

Tuesdays and Thursdays are tough for me. Any other day works great.
