How does the arbitration work in this league? Increase dollar value or vote off?

Congrats Champagne! And congrats to everyone for completing this strange season. I'm looking forward to next year and I hope you will all be returning. Thanks!

My first year as well and Im also having a blast. Given the circumstances we are all facing in the non fantasy world, this should be and needs to be fun. We all need it to stay sane. At the end of the year (or perhaps a couple of years) We can assess who got the best of who in each deal. In the meantime let’s have fun and we'll get to compete soon. I hope all you stay safe and healthy.

This is my first year in the league, and the 1st week post auction has been a blast for me! I love making deals and it's been a lot of fun wheeling and deal with you guys! Let's have some fun and get ready for when the season hopefully starts! If anyone wants to make some more "unfair" trades with me, I'm open for business!

...I am assuming we are all adults and probably have way more pressing concerns in life right now, with a lot of newly added stress, and so I would ask yourself if you really need to be an another additional source of stress in someone's life right now and have some empathy and perspective. Hopefully we can get some baseball in this season! I hope everyone is healthy and safe!

3. In terms of name callings/threats: I don't really care. In the past I have made the mistake of taking "FAKE" baseball too much to heart and allowing trash talk to really affect me in real life. I suggest the rest of you do not make that mistake. Unless someone is threatening physical harm in real life or crossing the line with real personal insults, I would suggest ignore it. If you are making threats and trash talking, I get it, been there done that, its part of Fantasy Baseball, b

2. An explanation was asked for and an explanation was given. Again, it might not be the best logic/strategy, but the owner provided justification/insight to what he was thinking. And it seems like he had a big picture plan in mind that perhaps each individual trade/cut didn't make sense on its own, but fit in his overall plan.

But, 1. All of these trades, and looking at the history, only ONCE did someone bother to hit the "veto" button. So it seems like most owners don't think anything is very out of the ordinary here, except maybe a bad trade, which we are all guilty of at some point.

My philosophy is that we are all presumably adults and can make our own decisions on roster construction, so in general I would hate to have to actually reverse a trade. Now, if we knew there was some real shenanigans (for instance the same owner using multiple email addresses to run multiple teams in same league and build a super team through lopsided trades with himself), action should be taken.

you can call in who ever you want. And the league from what I see is already sabotaged. I am in other leagues . EVERY single person I asked said exact same thing.
-
No further comment from me. Once the name calling and cursing starts, it is time for the commissioner to step in. No one should be threatening to sabotage the league.

Ok 1. FERDA gives up lopez for 9 . gets chavis for 3. Lopez dropped. Ferda gets musgrove-5 calhoun-6 for Baretto -8and Puk -5 . Good trade if your a idiot. Ferda gets cArenado -50 Lowe -3 for Marte-48 D.Smith -3. Smith then dropped. Another bullshit trade. Clkear enough for you now?
-
When complaining about a trade, it would be good to state a very specific and detailed complaint, not just throw out the term "bullshit" trade. Otherwise we are left guessing at what you consider to be unfair.

I am telling you right now. one more bullshit trade. And i will drop every fucking player on my team and abandon my team. I have been in leagues for 25 years. This shit doesn't cut it .
-
The explanation is simple. I took on salary in a subsequent trade and was forced to make a cut. I made the original trade for Lopez when he was offered for a player (Chavis) that I was planning to cut anyway. The chance to pick up Kershaw and Renfroe in the next trade made a cut necessary, and Lopez was the choice. You should be happy that the odds on favorite to win the league had to eat a couple of dollars!

Agree with @LightSabr, this looks unreasonable and ugly.
-
Uhh big old time out. I’ve been ok up to this point. A $3 player was traded for a $9 player, and the $9 player was subsequently cut? Causing a $5 penalty instead of $2? Would like an explanation.

@MenW/outShame I do not share your cause for alarm regarding these trades (not gonna comment on whether it is lopsided or not) @FERDA has been actively shopping a number of these pieces around the league. Sounds like a match was made.
@EddietheBlur as a new player, one way to ensure you are getting good value for your guys is to regularly update your Trade Block -- that way others may be able to meet or exceed the returns of the unsolicited trade...
-
I am curious? I just saw 2 trades made. Both to the same owner . Who is obviously getting the best of both deals. Were these teams involved in the league last year? To the other owners .PLEASEdo not be afraid to veto trades like these. I just want a fair league for all. Not someone handed players.

Sorry for the mistake, I was looking at it on my phone and I didn’t mean to accept. Didn’t mean for any confusion.

The trade was cancelled. FERDA clearly indicated in the response to the trade he did not intend to accept and sent me a message immediately. It was a mistake while responding to the offer from his phone.

FERDA did you mean to accept that trade?

NL - the RFA players still have the designation and can't make trade offers for them. Can you find out how that is fixed? Thanks.

Aberyak - your presence is requested at the draft please.

15 minute warning

30 minutes - FERDA you have first nom.

1 hour to auction time. See you soon.
NL MidEast on

In addition, if you win the bidding for the specific RFA from your team, you get that player at $5 off that price. So you have a slight edge on the player that was voted off your team.

If you mean RFAs it is no different than a regular FA. RFAs are just players picked from each team (the ones highlighted in Red on the rosters) to be eligible to be auction eligible to every team. When it is your turn to nominate a player, just select the player and let the bidding begin.
-
As a new player, I'm not sure how the bidding works on the DFA's. The rule is not written clearly. Any help is appreciated.

Hi, I will give Crazy Rich Ballers until this evening to respond, otherwise, we should sub him out for a new owner and proceed as planned with the draft. Is everyone still ok with Wednesday at 9:00pm?
