Goldschmidt and Rodon are on the block if any of you guys near the top are interested. All offers will be entertained.
-
All good Blues, no hard feelings. Will look to compete next year.
-
Never heard of these rules being enforced outside of a league with a separate league charter. Mine is not the only roster in this league which doesn’t comply, but I’m not here to throw others under the bus.
-
That means having 5 major league starters and 5 major league relievers. Antics has 8 pitchers total, including two pitchers on the 60 day IL who do not count towards the roster. It also means having a major league catcher. Antics does not have a catcher. Antics has 18 minor leaguers. By a plain reading of rule 1 a), this is not a legal team. And I'm truly sorry I raised this, because it's a problem that will resolve itself. My apolgies to everyone and especially Antics.
-
I am now very sorry I brought this up. Rule 1 a) :Each team shall during the regular season maintain a roster of 22 major-league players that can fill out a starting lineup as defined below. The remaining 18 roster spots can be used for reserves, consisting of both major and minor leaguers.
A roster of 22 major-league players capable of filling out a starting lineup as defined below shall be maintained regardless of any games started, games played or innings limits.
-
In this case less than 24 hours passed before my roster was made valid. I mention 48 because 48 is a reasonable threshold within which to expect an invalid roster to be made valid. But I will mention there isn’t a rule around this unless a league establishes a separate league charter.
-
Well, good luck to you, Antics.
-
I do respect the rules, but also the rule 1A provides a lot of gray area and isn’t specific, providing leagues the opportunity to come up with their own league charters. My roster was made valid by the trade that just processed. The roster was invalid for less than 48 hours. Sorry about the Vaun Brown. It is reasonable to expect that bids should be made with the intention to hold. I change my mind frequently, and there’s no rule against that.
-
@EOR Antics: $17 Bid on Vaun Brown, Win the auction for $6, immediately cut him, WTF? Also, do you know Ottoneu rule 1 a)? I let small infractions slide, but your roster doesn’t even pretend to follow the rule.
-
Top 10 prospects Marco Luciano SS and Noelvi Marte SS are both on the trade block. I'm looking for SP.
-
Hunter Greene fans? Prepare your offers! -_-
-
Looking to trade top SS prospect Marco Luciano SFG or Noelvi Marte SEA for starting pitching. Send me a DM if you're interested.

We would be interested in trading Sale and/or Lynn in the next 48 hours, if we can find a deal. Send a DM or offer if interested!

Draft is complete. Cuts, auctions and trades should now be available.

I can't see ANYTHING in the room!!

Sorry league, but unfortunately I won't be able to make the draft, my dog is getting a procedure done that day and will require special attention... I'm going to start looking for a proxy right now, will keep you guys posted.

Cuts are fine on our end, too, I'd prefer to have them as soon as possible so we can know the draft pool.

Either time on the 5th should be good for me. And yeah, no problem letting RISPie make his cuts.
-
7 PM EDT on the 5th would be better for me than 8 PM, but I can make 8 PM work. Rispie should get a round of cuts.
-
Thank you, Chief. I’ll just apologize again for my lack of participation in the off-season and can assure folks that I’ve got notifications back on and baseball fever has retaken its hold on me, so I’m ready to go this season. Looking forward to it and I hope the rest of the owners will extend me the courtesy of full participation. Good luck!

Second order of business. One of our managers missed the deadline to make cuts and currently can’t participate in the draft due to being over the cap limit. Life happens and this is not a cut throat money league so I would like to propose allowing one round of cuts to Rispie so we can have all managers drafting. If there are objections, here’s your chance to voice them. If you want to keep them private, send me a message. Hopefully we can all agree to get Rispie below the cap and draft ready.
-
As we haven’t gotten any further input from any other managers, I guess we can go ahead a set a tentative draft date of Tuesday April 5th at 8pm Eastern Standard. If there are any objections please voice them sometime this weekend. I would like to have the date confirmed by Monday morning.
-
Good to have you back, RISPies. I still think 4/5 appears to work for folks, given the constraints listed? How does that sound as a draft date, commish?

Hey folks, let me first apologize for not being as attentive as I could be over the past several months. (New kid just arrived so things will get better). As Blues pointed out, I need to make cuts but rosters are currently locked. I am also available for draft any night other than W, F, or S. I'm in US CT. Thanks for your patience with me, and again, apologies.

It's kinda hard to get a sense of input without a Doodle. I have a few other drafts already set, this is the last one one I need to accommodate (others are set for tomorrow, 3/24 at 9pm and 3/28 at 8pm EST). And I am indeed on Saigon time, 11 hours ahead of EST
-
Welcome to all of our new owners. Thank you all joining and making your cuts. At this point we have about half of the league giving input for a draft date. Want to send out one more call for the rest of the league to chime in with a favorable date. Also, can you include time zone so I can try to accommodate everyone.
-
All filled up, folks! Looking forward to it. Welcome to Diving Duck Blues (thanks for the intro) and the new manager of Madmen. Looks like the evening of Tuesday the 5th is looking solid for folks?

I'm free Monday-Thursday evenings on March 23, March 31, April 4 and 5 or March 24 if we start after 9 EDT. Sorry to be so specific.
-
Welcome to our new owners! As for the draft date, I'm pretty flexible, but Mondays and Wednesdays I don't get home from work until around 10 p.m. ET. and I do have another draft on April 3 at 8 p.m.
-
Hey all, best nights for me are Tues-Thurs, Sundays possible depending on the week. 8:30 or 9 ET best but will make it work - should we get a doodle poll going for auction date/time?
-
Hey everyone, just took over Wolf Pack 227. My name is Icaro, I'm based in São Paulo, Brazil, but I spent nearly 20 years on Long Island, NY, and that's my excuse for being a Mets fan. Any draft date works for me except for this upcoming weekend (March 19-20), I'm one hour ahead of EDT and have a flexible schedule.

MON-THURS nights are best for me, I do have some availability during the day on Wednesdays & Thursdays. Hope that helps Chief!
-
What’s happening with Rice? The team needs to have players cut.
-
ALSO, can we start looking at a good draft date? Personally, I like to push it as close to opening day as possible. My schedule is pretty flexible but I know others may have certain days that are a no go or prior commitments. If I could just get everyone to give me availability, I’ll put it all together and let everyone know what days work for the league as a whole.
-
Welcome Yari. We still need two managers but hopefully now that baseball is back on, we can get those guys that were on the fence to jump in and grab a team.
-
Welcome to the league, new manager of French Ticklers! Good to have you on board.

Thanks for your efforts, Chief and Wombats. No luck yet, but I can't see how we draft until we get these teams filled.

Feel the need to abandon Madmen. Did not renew the team and last visit was last September. I did send a few emails with no response. If no one objects, I’ll abandon later tonight.
-
I posted our two open teams on both the Slack and the community board. A reminder that everyone still needs to renew their team by 1/31. I hope y'all are well to start 2022

I echo EOR, 6+ months of not logging in is probably a sign we need to find new managers. Happy holidays and new year, everyone!

I have emailed the 3 managers in question one more time. If I don't get a response by Jan. 1 the teams will be abandoned. I was going to put it to a league vote at that point but instead, if there are any objections to that plan, post it to the league and we can discuss.
