Congrats Fielding

Congrats Art of Fielding on a well earned championship - absolutely stacked squad!!
-
Anyone interested in the whole SS/2B/MI positions - I'm looking to rethink my team a bit and those sorts are available for trade
-
Got to roll the dice on pitching bargains/breakouts.
-
Someone read Szymborski’s breakout pitcher column... I guess I did too... 😁
-
Poor Mike Trout, waiting for players to show up and win him a championship in real life and waiting for players on this roster to show up and do something with The Falcons. 🤷♂️
-
Felipe Vazquez' DTD designation per Ottoneu was generous, I hate this website and cannot wait to see what I fuck up next year.
-
Thanks for smooth draft everyone - draft complete and rosters should be unlocked

Returning owner whose team lapsed at deadline due to non-payment
-
When a new owner takes over a team, they get to make one round of roster cuts free of charge, no matter the time. It's in the rules. I don't know if he already made cuts when he first got the team, but 1 round of cuts is always allowed.

Significant roster transaction because everyone cut after the Jan 31 deadline is subject to 50% dead cap space. So Otto Noobs you can cut them after the draft, but instead of receiving a total of $23 back you will get $11 (until another team claims them, then each individual players full cap is released to you)
-
I am going to manually add back those players to Otto Noobs team - seems like theres a loophole where his roster isn't locked since he just claimed it, and everyone elses rosters are locked due to Jan 31st cut deadline.

90 minutes!

I've secured some "assurances" that I will be at the draft at 9p EST...thanks for all your patience

Ah man Kekambas, that is so sad. A Saturday night auction draft might serve as a great distraction from the in-laws, if you can get away with disappearing "to check on work emails..." for a couple hours...
-
thanks but that's not necessary; if I had a proxy, I'd use one...as it is, I'm feeling sorry for myself, since up to last week my plan was to spend Sat night watching UFC259, then Sun a morning meeting and NASCAR at Las Vegas Motor Speedway Sun afternoon, with a sprinkling of MLB and a Sunday night draft...when the Sunday draft fell through, I agreed to visit my in-laws this weekend

If Kekamba can't make it, I'll drop out once I'm in that range of cap. I've left auctions in past with that much money on table if not that many slots. FAAB really does work ok.
-
Potentially moving back to 10pm EST if Kekemba can make it 100%. Sorry all for dropping the ball on this, wrongfully assumed it would be easier to schedule. Late night Saturday no matter what - will send out a Zoom link tomorrow evening for anyone interested in shooting the shit
-
I'll do what I can to be there for the start, but if not, I'll join as soon as I can...when Sunday 3/7 went off the table I committed to some travel, not thinking about Sat...

Tomorrow (Sat) March 6th 9pm EST. Booking it now. Kekamba (28/40 players and $25 budget) has said he may not be able to participate but I am not sure there is a better alternative. He has okayed us going on without him which sucks - hope he can join and fill out some roster spots.
-
I can do tomorrow anytime. If anyone has an objection, say it now or book it.

I can do tomorrow. Just catching onto this btw.
-
I'll fit in anything anytime if I have a few days notice to fit it in. And yes tomorrow - the 6th - is ok - but one day's notice is by default not at all ok.
-
Saturday March 6 late (9pm eastern or later) works for me.
-
Kekembas said he is questionable for Sat night (later the better) but if 11/12 can do it he is fine with it. How do you guys feel about that? I want 12/12 but seems hard this year
-
The 6th can work; the later the better for me too.
-
I’m good on the 6th m. Later that evening is better

btw - the reason i use EST is because that's the clock time for the game. I don't actually know what time zone players are in but I think most are West Coast, I'm mountain
-
If Rogue is ok with Sat evening, then that leaves Kekambas. Or I can redo the poll
-
Sat 6th was included in poll - Kekambas and Rogue may have probs
Sun 7th was included in poll - Bobby's cox may have probs
Sun 14th afternoon was included - Rogue and Loesch may have probs
Sat 20th was included - Kekambas and rogue may have probs
-
Saturday the 6th works for me as well.
-
Send a trade and crickets

Can we have another 2000 messages to book a draft please

Saturday night the 6th would be good!

Agreed to redo the poll - was Saturday the 6th a viable date? I know it is short notice but we've been under the assumption that Sunday was viable so idk.
-
I can do weekdays if the start time is closer to 9pm (Eastern)--I have young children to get to bed--but a weekend day remains preferable. BTA, maybe redoing the poll is a reasonable next step?
-
I was in an auction last night where seven (7) teams had over $100 to bid and the draft was over within two hours...Kekambas can draft Wednesdays

Weekdays are great by me, just not the 9th. Happy to even start at 10PM (EST) if that helps those on the West Coast. I have other drafts on the 13th, 21st, and 27th all in the evening and happy to draft earlier on those days.
-
Weekdays are fine as well. The 8pm EST is not an issue for weekdays. My only unavailable days right now are the 7th and 25th-30th.
-
What about this Saturday night?
-
do you want me to redo the poll? honestly I think this is starting to be a total waste of time. If Bobby's Cox is the main issue re scheduling an auction - then get your fucking butt onto this message board and talk.
-
IIRC the last two drafts only took like 90min-2hr? Also confirmed 7th is a no go. Sorry everyone this is a major pain in the butt! But hey spring training is fun...have you guys seen Ronny Mauricio?!!?
-
So are we off of the 7th for sure now? I had cleared some things for this Sunday because that seemed to work for everyone. Wednesdays would be the only weekday that works for me.

historically weekdays are tougher to schedule because auction time can't stretch out as long. I have no problem limiting auction to 6 rounds or so and letting FAAB do the rest. That hugely reduces live auction time. does anyone else have a problem with that?
