I will allow the two new owners to make any cuts they want without penalty

He needs to go here, find his name, and claim his team back https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/claimteams

I was worried about that. I need his username

Hey Commish, can you send the Naturals owner a link to how he can renew at this point. He missed the 1/31 date, but he wants to continue in the league
-
We're heading into year 4 of a league that started with 16 teams so some of those original prices were skewed. Arb and regular increases have pushed us into higher inflation probably a year or two earlier than usual. Also, I think owners have seen that perhaps reputations have outpaced actual production and some names that previously commanded high salaries have been let go. Its all good stuff!
-
Maybe it's me but it seems like there are a lot more cuts this year. The arb increases over the last few years played a big part in my some of my decisions
-
Another reminder that cuts are due tomorrow and if you haven't paid up, get er done. I'll put together a draft poll shortly to find a good time for all of us.
-
A heads up. Cuts are due by this Sunday 1/31 and if any of you degenerates, like me, haven't paid yet then get that done by Sunday as well. Thanks!

3/3 In the trade with Acuna, I not only am getting Winker and Sano, but also $30 extra to spend in the auction. That (if applied to only one player) is a very good player. Like a George Springer. If I were to win Springer in the auction for that $30 and the end result of the haul I got for Freeman is Springer, Winker, and Sano, I assume this wouldn't bother you so much? If you'd like, I'd be happy to take this discussion further via PM or phone call if you'd like.
-
2/3 In the offer I made to you, you would have gotten Freeman - plus and extra $10 to spend in the auction. That could be used to add a player (to use players on our rosters) the likes of a Jorge Polanco, or a Luke Voit. So the resulting trade is Freeman + Polanco/Voit for Xander and Devers.
-
1/3 Sandlot - I understand your concern, and if these were in-season trades where often cap space is exchanged to balance the cap implications for each team, you would be absolutely correct that I would be applying a very different standard between what I asked from you and what I got from Acuna in exchange for Freeman. However, it is the offseason. And while you are correct that I'm not "concerned" about cap space, the cap space difference is always the unspoken "PTBNL" in a

In a vacuum, I would too. However, my roster was filled with a bunch of $10ish 6 points a game type guys and while depth is great, points don't accrue on the bench.
-
I could be the high man in the room on Winker though.

I don't think it's a bad deal at all for either side, just wanted to point out that it wasn't obviously one sided in favor of Freeman. There's a lot of value in h2h in consolidating talent to roster more arms, but in a vacuum Id want Sano, Winker, and the cap space.

I agree. However that Sano K rate is scarrrrrrrrry. I basically sold many multiple years of control for those two for maybe two seasons of Freeman and hoping he continues to produce at Trout levels.
-
I thought Sano and Winker were a slight overpay for a $48 Freeman. Not a trade I would object to at all.

I'm not sure what you're looking for. I assume Derek put feelers out to multiple teams and was waiting for the best deal he could get for a player he was clearly moving on from. He made me an offer and I countered. He accepted. Are my players better than yours? No, not really. Are my players cheaper and probably a better value going forward? Absolutely. I was willing to take on a high-cost player for two guys that were redundant for me.
-
I thought it would be pointless. Now Rogue accepts a trade for Freeman for Sano and Winkler. It might be just me, but that is a far cry from Devers and Bogaerts and the rich (Acuna) gets richer. I know Rogue wasn't worried about salary as the trade proposed to me would have increased his overall salary. This is just very frustrating to me based on what I believed Rogue was looking to receive back for Freeman.
-
I'm probably going to upset some owners with this post. I've only been in the league for 2 seasons. Not sure how that stacks up to the rest of the owners or what relationships exist between owners, but when I see a trade like the one currently accepted between Acuna and Rogue it really pisses me off. Rogue offered me Freeman for Devers and Bogaerts. I indicated that was too rich and didn't receive a counter ( I know I could have countered, but when the starting price was that high

Who wants Freddie Freeman?

Mookie is available!

Robbie Cano is ON. THE. BLOCK.

Sorry for the Gallo fuckery. Sean thought he needed to get under the cap. Just so everyone is aware, you can be both over the cap and roster limit until keepers are due on 1/31
-
Just another reminder to get your arbitration done by the end of the week. Thanks!
-
Greetings all - just an FYI that I will complete my arbs this weekend.

Two more weeks, get your arbitration done!

Congrats Mark! There's always next year for Rogue's ☠

Thanks! What a weird season. I was ready to start the fire sale when I basically lost my #1 and #2 starting pitchers in the first week and began 0-2. Next year I think we should keep the multiple team scoring.

Congrats Murph on your well deserved championship

Last day to trade. Still looking to move Altuve and Devers.

Still looking to move Devers & Altuve if anyone is interested.

Well, I think I am officially out of the running for the post season. Starting to build for next year and the future. Let me know if anyone is looking to make a final push for this year and we can try to work something out.
-
Apparently, the Gallen cut was a mistake. I am re-releasing him with the expectation he is going back to Bozzs.
-
I don't mess around!
-
Appears to be fixed now.
-
I've notified Niv. We aren't the only ones having the problem apparently
-
I don't know about anybody else, but when I go to set my lineup, I only have 2 SP slots and no indication of how many starts I have left for the week, as though the settings have been reset to the way they were 2 years ago. I assume this is a site glitch and not a midseason settings change? Just a warning in case anybody has 3+ starters going today (I do not).
-
Quite the Sunday comeback to make up for it though. Well done.

Wow, Beiber's 77 points are on the bench. That could easily be the difference this week.

Santander has been added to the restricted list until I get figure out if the Naturals and OBP both bid. Once we get that info I'll add him to the correct team's roster.

It happens. Whenever you can get him off my team will be fine. Thank you.

Last auction appears to have gone ok
