I hear that.
Gently with the block
-
If I can't get him for $1 no one is getting him cheap, lol
-
Theres a 10$ Garrett Mitchell jet
-
The 1$ Michael Harris ll jet won't be flying this year Levy. Stop that man!
-
I'm so busy keeping an eye on all of you guys, I'm not paying attention to my own
-
LOL. Why you watchin lil ol me? I've hardly bid on anyone compared to other years!
-
I'm watching your cap space Levy
-
Love to see all the activity this year!
-
Oh man, Bassitt tried to kill me by giving up four home runs in one game.
Then, I put Kopech in my other league the following day...he gives up 5 home runs, 4 in one inning. Wow. Sure takes the pressure off.
-
Someone's bored at work today... lol
-
Sure, I see myself finishing between 2nd and 12th...
I'd love to be wrong
-
RIP Rhys we hardly knew ye
-
U da man
-
I hope they take the bed restraints off soon so you can use the remote.
-
Anyone else have FIVE opening day starters? :)
-
No Vaughn no problem! I got Albies now. Move Witt to SS and plug in Hayes, Vargas, or Baty!
-
You can't bring me down off of my mountain Sticks! Literally or figuratively! haha
-
I know when my day comes around, I'll be getting sent down too.
I only kid because I love this stuff.
Good Luck Everybody, and I will try to keep my 2 year old away from my phone for the season.
-
Here's a good Steamer projection for ya
-
Good fans, Cardinal Fans are.
And down goes Levy...
Like Vaughn Grissom
-
I appreciate everyone's donation... ;)
-
like Whitey Herzog said, the owners are stupid. Well, it ain't my money. And the 50 bucks I spent on this league will be the entirety of my baseball expenditures this year.

Yeah that is funny. I can only assume the difference is in drafting prospects and having a crazy deep pool of cheap restricted players versus us who bid on them the same as any free agent and only have 40 man rosters. A salary cap also helps reign us in. I do love how closely ottoneu seems to mimic the MLB tho.
-
I was thinking of the contract the Cardinals just gave to Mikolas. Here they are paying him like he's a top 30 SP in the league and here he is a $1 player in our league and a $4 player on average.

Only 4 more than 10 years! Gotta be pretty rough to be honest. The bottom half of teams don't have near the budget, they are trying to beat 29 other guys, and winning it all is the only acceptable outcome. If you get hired as the Marlins GM you have like a 1% chance of winning based on your budget constraints, ownership changes, etc. Having said that I'm sure we could do almost as good if given the chance with the resources at their back and the fact that if you ain't first, you're last! haha

Well if you think about it they are in a league that is more than twice as deep as ours and don't get 10 years to build and figure out how to win before they'll get fired. They either win within a few years of getting hired or they gone. They aren't worried about a contract 10 years down the line how many GMs actually stick around that long? The OGs in this league have been here more than the majority of real world GMs, lol.
-
looking at some of these MLB contract signings, I have become convinced that if the MLB GMs played ottoneu fangraph points, they would do a much better job.

The hyphen seems more sinister.
-
Shouldn't it be Kro-Kit or Kropot? lol
-
Nah, I'm good

Congratulations Styx! You finally got one!

-
Really sorry to hear that - I can't speak for everyone but if you do your best to post your status we can prob push back the start a little bit if it helps.
-
I will quite possibly be unavoidably late or absent or for the draft. It's a pop-up...and I'm probably out. Do my best.
-
I suppose this means I'll stop looking at flights to Cabo to escape the snow. 3/1 it is!
