Hi All. The Musial Suspects team has been abandoned. Looking for a new owner.

A great season to be sure, after the deprivations of 2020, and we had a good finish to our pennant race, and now we have playoffs to entertain us in the real world. Thanks to all for being part of it. Landing in 4th as I did, that's actually a rung below kissing your sister, and if I had a manager to fire I would do it. Alas, can't terminate my own dumb ass. Looking forward to adding salary to all your players though - see you in the arbs!

Arbitration starts in a mere 9 days, so be sure to start thinking about your allocations. Pleasure playing with you all again this year and looking forward very much to next season!

Well the 2021 Timmy season came down to the wire in quite a battle between the two dominant second half teams. Hearty congratulations to Ben for prevailing in the end and holding off quite a charge from Jason's squad, which steamrolled it's way into contention after a slow start. So congrats to Yaz for the second place finish and to Vafa for a fine showing and convincing win of the final money spot.
-
Hoping that watching Charlie Morton will calm my nerves and ease the nausea. In any case congratulations to Vafa on securing 3d place and I hope everyone enjoys the drama as it unfolds.

Using the “scheduled follower” feature for the first time today! Are there any others than McHugh who get this?

Let's bash Trevor Bauer instead. Would anybody be interested in trading me a beat-up old hat or perhaps a plug of tobacco for him?

Somebody who wants a young talented outfielder should offer me a stud starting pitcher who’s too expensive for next year. So I can beat Yaz. Also just learning that “raking”is either when you are super handsome or your spray chart looks like a lawn rake 🤷🏽♂️

oh dear something's gone wrong again. i should check my team more often instead of larking about. i honestly thought for once i had the yaz cats dead / buried and now . . . so sad.

dude, your team is doing great, why are you feeling sick? i suggest a nice cup of peppermint tea, maybe with a little honey. my team will still beat your team's ass in the end, but you still have a small chance of ending up in the money. enjoy the ride!

If by "fun", you mean that special combination of nausea/indigestion/diarrhea...then, yes. I'm having butt loads of "fun" this year, DC. Thanks for asking
-
Anyone else having fun this season? I'm really rather enjoying it. Not the injuries of course, which seem worse than ever. Nor the controversies. But the baseball part of it. And as we hit the halfway point here, I think we could be looking at a decent pennant race in this league. cheers

Never responded to a trade offer I sent a few weeks ago, IIRC.
-
Just wondering if anyone has heard from Utley. His lineup hasn't really changed all year(injured/benched players starting and whatnot) and he hasn't been responsive to messages.
-
i do two adjustments. one is just called adj ttl and that's column R. That adjusts for pitching. I pegged everyone at 475 innings. Oppo leads there but the race is tightening. I also adjusted for hitting. So, Column P shows new totals with both innings pitched and games played evened out-- i pegged everyone to 580 GPs. I consider the adj adj standings less valid since I'm not in first there.

dudes, a certain member of this league asked to see the adjusted standings. I uploaded a file to Drive -- which really seems to be having a problem with the file, i don't know why. let me know if you have trouble accessing. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1lufrOdM1drZdTklfunr4O0H7rgfFkLo0/edit#gid=407155144

I think I'm going to give The Hornets a "Well played, sir" on that little round robin. I appreciate that Walt was ready with the transactions to follow the Trout pickup and knew exactly what he was about. Everyone should be able to field a major league team though, so minus 10 points for Griffindoor there. But it's not too egregious for a 12th place team in this case and it's *sort of* almost a full lineup. So, ok. Of course, I'm going to win it all this year. (maybe)

You're welcome, btw, on Cedric Mullins. Next time I like a player I'm going to both: a) start an auction and 2) actually bid on him. Here are adjusted standings- Adjusted for innings pitched that is-- I pegged everyone at 67 innings: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1pfNV8cKwZ8usRiUWmySof_sJFMPItl4n/view?usp=sharing

Okay, draft set as ended.

I think the draft is still open. To end it, I think a commish can go to "Commissioner Tools" > "Manage Owners" and select "done with draft" for everyone.
-
Hey league, Ill only be around for the first 15-20 minutes of the auction, have my baseball semi final today. But with my roster and budget situation I probably wasn’t getting anyone at auction anyways haha!

Yeah I still like the 6th. & I now have my other Ought-To-Know draft on the 7th. That particular weekend does seem to be the default draft time. Last year I had three drafts in three days, March 7, 8 & 9.

6th good for me, but later fine too. (I feel very strongly about that.)
Yaz Cats on

Yeah, I thought the 6th was good, usually around when we draft in this league. I also like having some time between the draft and opening day to maneuver.
-
6th works for me
-
The sooner we draft, the sooner we can make trades. So I’d be in favor of keeping it where it is on the 6th.

I'm open to considering other dates. I don't like to draft *too* close to opening day, because after the draft teams still have maneuvering to do, and that means a bunch of slow drafts, and it can take awhile for things to shake out. (Season starts April 1 this year btw). There's also our Yahoo league draft, which is always closer to the season. I will discuss with the Papi. Others are welcome to chime in with their thoughts.
Oppo on

I'm available on the 6th, but that gives our guys almost a month to get injured before the start of the season. Is there a downside to pushing it closer to opening day?

that draft time is good for ratboi

Dudes, the Auction Draft is currently set for Saturday March 6th, 8pm eastern time. What do you reckon? We can change this but if that doesn't conflict for anyone I think that'd be ideal. Should be a decent hour for our Aussie friend. But let us know if it just doesn't work for you.

Welcome Mr. Ratboy. You will find a number of wheeler-dealers in this league. I am not one of them. (not that i'm completely averse to an occasional deal, it's just not a way of life with me.). cheers

Thanks, Papi. I posted a message about our open team (Pujols) on the Ottoneu community board. And you've probably seen my email too - I just like to make sure we reach everyone. It's so easy to miss these deadlines. cheers

Also a heads up that everyone also needs to renew their team in Ottoneu by Jan 31. So make sure you're all paid up by then! Additionally, We All Have Pujols is still owner-less. If you know of anyone looking to take over a team, pass the details along. Thanks!
-
Hey all! Hope you're doing well, looking forward to the new season (hopefully) beginning in a couple months. Just wanted to give a heads up that the keeper deadline is approaching fast: 1 week from today. Make sure to get all your penalty-free cuts in by 11:59 PM EST on Sunday, Jan 31. This is also the deadline for any pre-draft trades, so you have one week left for any wheelin' and dealin'.
