lol nice pun!
I would say the recency bias also account for post draft super hyped prospects, who at the time of debut may be a $12-$15 rookie.
At the end of the day they’re still volatile lotto tickets.
This instant success of Nando, Vlad, Ely are leading people to think all tops draftees/J2s are capable of that talent.
Wait what am I saying… yes, yes please all my opponents spend big on top draft guys yes muahahahaha
-
My point was that Bazzana and Condon went for quite reasonable salaries compared to Rece Hinds, whose $12 salary is the result of - sorry, can’t help myself - Recency bias.
-
Not close to convinced I'll be keeping my $10 draftees in 2025, but felt like price enforcing if my season is going nowhere. Winning bids on these guys seem to be increasing each year.

Big difference is Rece Hinds is in the majors. These guys are freshly out of the draft pool.
Top draft picks go for premiums now, just a few years ago they would have been, 2-4 dollar pick ups
-
Well that was dull. Rece Hinds went for $12. The eye of the beholder, right. Stay well, everyone.
-
even after winning the Bazzana auction for $10, I was surprised it went that high. I'm assuming Condon goes for even more with how fun it is dreaming on Rockies hitters

Bazzana’s median salary in 5x5 is $10. Charlie Condon may be another story. Shall we find out?
-
Me: I wonder what Bazzana will go for…
Me: 👀

I’ve got about 12ish hours to make any trades for the Prestige snapshot. Willing to move any player or contract that helps me this season. Hit me up if you're interested in swinging a trade today!
-
Thank you for sharing an update and hope you have a speedy recovery RHB!
-
Thank you all for your kind thoughts. I am touched by all of them. Stay well, Chris.
-
Hope you’re feeling better soon, RHB!
-
Hope you have a speedy recovery.
-
RHB - I’m happy you’re alive too and hope you have a speedy recovery! We are definitely on polar opposites on the trade slinging, and they don’t always work out making looking back at trades through the years pretty fun. You might do more than keep the chair warm, you might be keeping it for yourself all season!
-
Hey Chris, wish you a speedy recovery, take care
-
I was going to write a clever riposte to VSB’s trade message about being willing to give up future value to win this year. But VSB was too fast for me. I’m recovering from open heart surgery. What can I say? I’m still the crotchety old guy who hates trading. VSB is a better player than me, and there’s no shame in keeping the first place chair warm for him. I’m happy to be alive. Chris.

Hold my beer.

Blockbuster trade with a major loan, good work I guess
-
Happy 2024 Opening Day!
-
Good to see that podcasters are getting auctioned. Trevor May - Rates & Barrels - every Friday.
-
Jays and Max - your presences is requested at the draft room.
-
10 minute warning. Still missing a comish to start the show.
-
About 30 minutes to draft time.
-
Draft tonight! 8PM EST
-
Looking to fill one last open team in a Yahoo league.
14 Teams, H2H. You can keep any (10) players, so plenty left in the draft pool.
Team features: Ohtani (batter), Castellanos, Lowe, Logan Gilbert, Joe Ryan, Lopez, Buxton, Happ, Stott
Please let me know if you're interested.
-
Setting it for March 4th unless someone objects! :)
-
I can make the 4th work, so that should be all good
-
What I am seing in many leagues I'm in, when there is only one team not available, the draft date is set anyway and proxies are found for that team
-
For those that voted no to March 4 and 15, would shifting the draft time slightly help any of you make it?

It seems like we're at a bit of a crossroads on our draft day - March 4 and 15 have the most votes but we have at least one player voting no on each. Would we be able to make either of these days work or do we need to go back to the drawing board?
-
I just created this doodle for a draft date survey. Can everyone please complete so we can lock a time in?

Right now Feb. 25 and March 12, 14, 17, and 18 look like they will be booked soon in my other leagues. Available the other weekdays after 7:30pm and anytime on the weekends. Thanks.
-
When is draft day?
-
I'll be holding off make cuts until around 11pm est. Until then I am still open to trade offers. Thanks.
-
Today is the cut/trade deadline! Make sure to accept trades and make all cuts by 11:59pm EST! Remember, any trade you make will require you to KEEP all players at this point.
Also, this is our renewal deadline - we have 12/12 teams renewed!
-
Hello everyone! We got a big date coming up - both our keeper/trade deadline AND our renewal deadline. We have 8/12 teams renewed as of today. So get those trade offers out there and get your team renewed :)
-
Final weekend before the deadline - time to make those last minute trade offers and deals.
-
Looking to move Freddie Freeman. Would need 2-4 young, talented, & affordable players in return with salaries <$20. Any trade involving more than 6 or more players will be automatically declined.

Hey everyone, Madtown Kings replacement here. Looking forward to baseball season.. can’t come soon enough!
-
Heh. Thanks, Votto! ... Found out two hours after I posted that it's gonna be twins. Oh boy.
-
Everybody change their team names to Nobody so Votto won't be upset when they lose this year. :)
-
Hey Madtown - first, congrats - I got 3 kiddos myself and I know how tiring those first weeks are very well! Second, thanks for letting us know, you'll be missed. Lastly, I'd rather nobody catch me ;)
-
Hey all, FYI... Wife and I are having a baby this year (smack in the middle of baseball season!), and I'm trimming back on things to free up some time. I won't be re-upping this league for the 2024 season. Enjoyed playing with you all! Somebody go catch Votto!

Happy holidays
