My two back to back picks are made
-
Got it, will do!
-
Only thing that's helpful after you make your pick is to delete the player name and salary from Columns J and K to make sure a player doesn't get selected twice. Let's try to make picks within a few hours (excluding night time) to keep this moving.
-
I'm taking Zack Wheeler. Papi is on deck with back-to-back picks. I'm generally pretty quick with mine unless it's sleeping hours or I'm away from a phone, but I'm down with whatever reasonable limit you all propose.

Ok, my 1st pick is in. I entered it on the spreadsheet. Should I do anything else?
-
Alright, welcome back Papi, and with a few hours to spare we now have a full league! And yes, we can now start the dispersal Draft. The order will be Newbridge, Cat's Meow, and Papi. Remember you don't have to leave with a full roster of 40 players, but you do have to leave with a legal roster. Once a team opts to stop drafting, they will be skipped from further picks. Any questions, please post them on the message board.
Newbridge is on the clock with the first dispersal draft pic
-
So, can we just drafting players now? Do I just add them to the spreadsheet? Should I message or email anyone once I've made a pick? How long do we have to make picks? Thanks!
-
Thanks for the warm welcome. I'm Tom. I recently moved into a new place and introduced myself to my neighbors, though I was not legally obliged to do so. I'm looking forward to competing against you all and think this league will be a great avenue for expanding my personal brand. I don't watch a ton of baseball but I have looked up photos of all of the players in the dispersal draft and feel like I have all of the info I need. I like cats.

Also here's the link to the dispersal draft sheet. Please let me know if anything is unclear in the setup: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/13itpxk0U3fIVzUH9Hba_0agU8XgQ-VjtL3wlM3hak-8/edit?usp=sharing

As far as Blue Jays new owner, the artist known as SexyTom whooped my ass down the stretch in another league we’re in last season. I’ll let him introduce himself further but don’t let those dreamy little emoji eyes fool you…you have been warned
-
Just to let you guys know my background: I've been playing fantasy baseball since 2013, my oldest league I've been in since the beginning is a H2H Dynasty league. I've also been playing in a Redraft Roto league for five years (I think?). This is my first experience with a points based league and auction/salary cap so this is going to be a big adjustment, but I'm up to the challenge. Look forward to getting to know you guys over the season!
-
That doesn't mean you'll need to draft your entire team, but you'll need to be able to enter the auction with less than 40 players, less than $400 in salary, and enough cap space for $1 per open roster spot.
-
In terms of the dispersal draft, it will work like this: I'll put all the players from the 3 teams into a google spreadsheet, and use a random draft order generator to create the snake draft picks. Then each manager will be able to select players from the combined pool (at their current salary) until they are satisfied with their roster. Since we'll be doing this "post cut deadline", the only rule will be you need to draft a legal team.
-
Welcome new owners! Excited to have you and please post any questions you have to the message board. In terms of the dispersal draft, the only thing you have to do right now is renew your team and do not make any cuts or trades. Once we get the last owner in, we'll do the dispersal draft and I'll manually update everyone's roster.
-
Thanks for the welcome! I’m still wrapping my head around this system and format, but I’m looking forward to trying to compete (though I’m trying to figure out how I could possibly beat the Commish’s team…Witt and Acuna? Yikes!). Just to clarify, do I need to set keepers or do I just wait for the draft? Is there a date on that?
-
Hey guys, please welcome the new owner of Newbridge (formerly sticky substance). He's a friend of a friend who comes highly recommended. Commish, maybe you can send him a line with any relevant details about the dispersal draft, which I have briefed him on.
-
Hey commish, I saw in another league, they posted the player pool of the distribution draft in a sheet like this. Might be worth a shot: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1AhAHLotwE8oFncivYoSMqsYvZ0pWI1luCtXxlr1mCi4/edit?usp=sharing
-
I posted the teams in another league as well
-
I posted it in a home league and a couple guys there also re-shared.
-
I think I have one manager from the forums, but still looking for another two. I posted in both Slack and Forums, and will do so again today.
-
Any luck with these open teams? Have we posted it on the Slack and on the messageboards?
-
not sure. but 3 mgrs short is a tough get. enticements are needed.
-
*should only be players on those rosters at their current prices and not current free agents. (Right?)
-
dump all 3 teams players into a mini draft, along with existing free agents, only the 3 teams would be drafting
-
How does the dispersal draft work?

We now need 3 new managers for this league (Sticky Substance, Blue Jays, and Big Papi Memories). Will post again today in Slack and forums, but we'll need to fill them quickly in order to keep this league going. If you know of anyone the teams are available on the Claim page and I think we can offer up a dispersal draft to ensure a bit more competitive roster going into auction season.

We need two new owners still - both Sticky Subtance and Big Papi Memories are available. I've posted them in Slack and will post in Community board today. I think the best thing is to do a dispersal draft btw the teams to make slightly more competitive rosters. If anyone has a friend that wants either of them would love to start there.
-
what team is open?
-
Any progress on filling our open manager spots?
-
I'm looking to trade infielders for outfielders. Please feel free to send offers.
-
Please abandon my team. Best of luck to you guys. Thanks again.
-
Also welcome to the league Votto's Revenge Tour!
-
Reminder that arbitration ends tomorrow (11/14). If you cannot get arb done, please LMK ASAP.
-
Please abandon this team. I was victim of a stroke on Sep 15, so I will have to quit my part time job losing my Ottoneu spending money, anyway don't have the same energy to manage so many leagues, will be quiting many leagues. Sorry to let you down guys, thanks.
-
Congrats Suspects!

Thanks for letting us know Sticky, and it's been a pleasure. I'm going to post your team now to see if I can get a manager to handle arb season.
-
I am going to drop out of this league next year for no other reason than I prefer H2H. You guys have been great. Hopefully I have left a team that is in good shape for the next guy. I do intend to continue to try an optimize my lineups to take 5th place from SCC. :). But after that I am out. Best of luck to all of you.
-
Anyone want Semian for the final run? I need a definite, no questions about it, keeper for next year.
-
If you want to take the risk that Ohtani doesn’t get TJ, send me an offer. I don’t want that risk and I’ll be cutting him.
-
All of my relievers are on the the block -- notably Hader, Duran, and Sewald. Looking for younger OF talent or Catcher. SP always welcome as well!
