Been a couple of sad/happy days diving into all the great Bob Uecker stories... thankful to be in a league with you fine folks. Picked this league nearly ten years ago based on the name and what Ueck meant to me. Good luck to everybody this year! #winitforueck

Hi Commish and owners, congrats to the winners, wanted to say it's been a pleasure playing with all of you this season. Got way too many leagues and cannot maintain the rythm (time consuming and $$$). So I won't be renewing many of my leagues like this one, got some talent to attract new owner for next year so you should be able to quickly fill vacancy. have a good arb and a great future season! Thanks Commish for great work

Who is Who Is Karim Garcia? The runaway winner this year. Congratulations, well done.

Congrats WiKG!

Thanks Otto - I'd like to say I celebrated in style, but my Mets nearly gave me (another) stroke!

Jeopardy Clue: this team is the 2024 Champion! (congrats WIKG)

Just an FYI for the league. This is in the community section and comes from Niv. Because the Mets/Braves will have a doubleheader on Monday, the season will be extended for those games and the stats will count. This will also extend the official end of season to Monday at 11:59pm EST. This means you can still start an auction on Saturday before 11:59pm EST and it will process. Any auctions started after that will not have enough time for the 48hr waiver wire period. Thanks.

Final night for trades.

Whole team is for sale, reasonable offers, please no big deals, I will eat salary.

Only a few days left to make trades before the deadline.

Looking for rental SP with high K rates - message me if you see something.
-
I am also ok with the 2 comish adds. He will still need to make cuts in addition to those adds, which should be done asap, imo.

Also willing to operate with an invalid roster for a few more days and can make a few more cuts as I think there's potential for claims of some of those players mentioned, to see if that resolves the issue. Don't want to make more of this than it needs to be.
-
I would say the obvious caveat is that these are players of little to no worth. I would hate for this to become some sort of precedent, and more of a one off issue, but of course we are opening a potential can of worms. In general I think our league has been logical and fair and does not have a history of Owners taking advantage of situations and maybe naively hoping that would continue if we allow this.

Let him add those bums
-
I made those mistakes in different occasions over the past seasons, never asked to correct it, I assumed my error. Won't make a fuss if the league decides to give back the two guys, it had to be a mistake like the one I made
-
Hi All, Is anyone opposed to adding Hayes and Abreu to WIKG's roster? I'm Ok with it as long as nobody opposed.

Okay, I see now. I’m sorry. I say go ahead.
-
Had no expectation anyone would claim underperforming/injured Harris and Leclerc has sucked all year; did the math based on cutting everyone I've cut so far, plus cutting Eflin, Lowe, Heim, and Bello. If I cut all of those, with no claims, I'm at $395 with 33 players on the roster. $5 for 7 roster spots. If I added the 2 guys nobody wants (remember they're already in the $395), I am at $395 with 35 players, thus, a valid roster. It was an honest mistake.
-
It’s a wash if it means you have to cut two fewer players.
-
The more I look into this, it seems like a strategy/gamble that isn't working. Freeman is great pickup especially if someone claims Harris II. That didn't happen... so now it's time to cut someone that will get you valid (and likely get claimed). Don't know why the commish would need to help cover your risk, after-the-fact.
-
I don’t understand. Whether the two players are cap penalties or on your roster, the 2 dollars they count against the cap exist in both scenarios. The only way to clear that money is for someone else to roster them. You do have to have a free dollar for every open roster spot, so you currently need $7 + the number of cuts from the results of your cuts. If you rostered the two players for $2 you would need $7 + the number of cuts from the results of your cuts.
-
Issue I am running into is even if I cut guys I am OK with cutting to get under $400, I don't have enough cap space to "fill" a 40 man min roster because I would have too many open roster spots - the cap penalties count against me whether they're on the roster or not, so adding them to the roster gets me closer.
-
WiKG, not sure what you mean here. They are already at the min cap penalty ($1). Adding them won't help your invalid state. You need to cut more $, at least $8 so that you reduce your level by $4 (assuming no claims).
-
I made a mistake and forgot to start the auction for my cap penalty players Austin Hayes and Jose Abreu prior to Freeman's waiver period ending - I can't get my roster to a valid state without them added back to my team (assuming no claims of players I cut); would anyone object to commish adding them?
-
I wouldn’t assume anything - it could be a cap space cut.
-
Assuming the cut of Freeman was an accident?
-
Happy 2024 Opening Day!

Glove and FERDA - please come to the draft room.

I’ve got one or more drafts almost every day through the end of March but I’ll be there for whatever works for majority.
