Gallan is 28 and a top tier SP.......the two pitching prospects that he had to have.....one is projected to be a mid rotation starter and the other has pitched in two years and had TJ in 2023. Sorry but this trade impacts the league and ruins the integrity of the league, esp. given how early in the season it is.

Sure, I would've loved to get a chance to to match the offer. But fact of the matter is KP saw an offer he liked and made a deal. My loss. If you think something illegal happened, then you gotta do what you gotta do. But this league has been around for a while, and I like to think that even when we disagree, the action is above-board and cooler heads end up prevailing. I prefer not to set a precedent where we veto trades that aren't illegal or that don't fundamentally harm the league.

I looked back at the leagues trades over the last few years.....I couldn't find one trade that including a top tier player for prospects this early in the season

if "you just know" then why not advertise that you are giving up on the year.....get more offers and the best deal possible.

Yeah, it's a little early, but some years you just know. Full disclosure before (and honestly after) the Yamamoto deal we were putting together offers for Gallen as well. No offense to KP, but he didn't have to advertise to us that he was a prime candidate to sell.

Thanks, I understand how Ottoneu works. You can't have teams dumping top tier SPs this early in the season for prospects only. And the fact that the SP was not advertised as available is problematic and possibly illegal (they will never say if they colluded).
I have played in dynasty/keeps leagues for years....never seen a team dump a top tier player for prospects 30 games into the season.Announce my Presence w/ Authority on May 8, 2024 9:38 PM

As for the $$$, that's how loans work and why they exist. The loaner isn't paying the other manager a bunch of money, they're loaning money to float the soft cap number this year. The cost is you lose cost-controllable guys and then have to make way more cuts in the offseason. FWIW a quick primer: https://fantasy.fangraphs.com/ottoneu-101-how-loans-work-in-ottoneu/.

Again, not my favorite trade, but certainly not a "quit the league" trade.

We won't be voting to veto the trade. Listen, I don't think it's a great trade. We like Jobe as much as the next guy, but it still feels light. That being said, I absolutely don't think it rises to the level of problematic or illegal. Conceptually, it is a pretty standard currently value for future value Ottoneu trade. You can scroll back into the history of this league and it's not too hard to find similar moves. Or look at recent trades involving Gallen and/or Jobe across the Ottoneu platform.

Most prospects don't do anything in the majors. About 70% of Baseball America top 100 prospects fail and 60% of top 20 pitchers fail. People over value prospects but that is their choice. But I have a problem with a team dumping a top tier SP for three prospects so early in the season (about 20% of the season played). A Team dumping players this early in the season ruins the integrity of the league.
