Alright! Probably time to get the hot stove going with the Christmas break. Looking for long-term pieces, in particular, with Bogaerts, Kershaw, Stanton and plenty of others available--drop me a line if you're interested!
We could also still use a replacement manager for NYCC, so feel free to send out any feelers there.
-
Good morning all,
Thanks for having me, I am excited to get digging in on this team. Expect a name change here and expect some fireworks on the trade front.
While I won't move everyone, i will listen on anyone. I have updated my block and in general just want to improve my team across the board.

Hi, all! Welcome to Ira and Rick, our new managers (respectively) for Redacts and I Like Turtles.
Unfortunately, Ira won't have much computer access until after the arbitration deadline. For equality's sake, I'm planning to arbitrate on his behalf, basically assigning value to each team's currently most-arbed players--but if anyone has any concerns with this or an alternate solution, please feel free to speak up.
We're also looking for one more owner (for NYCC), if anyb
-
FYI, it looks like we'll be looking for at least one new manager for 2022 (Redacts), and it never hurts to have others interested--so if you know anyone looking to join, let me know!
-
Thanks for the kind words and a fun season everyone. It was really fun to try and play catch-up for half a season. If I had another week (or Acuna not getting injured :/) and I think I could've of pulled of top 3; but maybe next year! I've got three teams open other leagues if anyone's interested. One rebuild ($50/FGPTs) and two in decent shape (1-$50/5x5, 1-$50/FGPTs); if you're interested let me know and I'll shoot the roster over for you to take a look at!
-
Nah, I'm laying this one on Kershaw, Bauer, Castillo and Sonny Gray. Also Alcantara for being roughly as good as Freddy Peralta when I traded him. You know what? Let's just blame all of them except for Walker Buehler.
-
And congrats, Jay!

Thank you thank you. My reign will be quiet and peaceful. Bend the knee and all will prosper.
I want to thank my pitching staff and Adam Frazier for randomly turning into a good player because my offence was trash to start the year. Hope everyone has a great offseason and if you’re looking to make trades hit me up :)
Congrats to Kleborp and Brice for tying for 2nd and Dan you did an amazing job. I’m terrified for a full season against you.

Congrats to Jay on his first League of Nations championship! Been mighty close in the past, but this was pretty much a no-doubter since Labor Day. Shoutout as well to kleborp on another solid finish, and to Dan for an extremely impressive turnaround after taking over his team midseason. Should have seen that coming when I saw you were like #15 in OPL.
Y'all know the drill; if you're definitely out for next season, let me know so we can start looking for a replacement. Good luck in a

Or hit me up because I’m nicer

Last call! If anyone's looking to move a rental (basically anywhere but SS), drop me a line.
-
Got a surplus of bats, if anybody wants to pick one up for a pitching rental or long-term pieces.
-
Looking to acquire really good players for my cheaper options. :)
-
Well, that was badly timed! Still looking more for pitching, but if anybody's looking to move an SS rental feel free to drop me a line.
-
Anybody got a catcher?
-
Happy to finally get a crack at a 4x4 team. Feel free to reach out about trades/etc. There will be some roster churn coming over the next 48hrs.
-
And we've got a new manager for the Twindians. Thanks and welcome, Dan!
-
On a completely different note, the Twindians have been idle for a month and aren’t responding to messages/email, so we might be looking for a new manager there soon. Drop me a line if you have any candidates.
-
Yeah, in light of yesterday evening's Ozuna news Kara and I have mutually agreed to reverse the trade after it goes through. No need to veto or anything--we're discussing other options for Bauer that could affect the final rosters--but I can't tell y'all what to do :P
-
Don’t worry Kara, I voted to veto the trade 😂
-
I'd be up for moving Wander for elite pitching talent, if anyone's interested.
-
The big story here is now I can name my team Kluber Industrial Smoothing again.

-
Wouldn't mind picking up a solid 2B if anybody's interested in dealing.
-
Looking to move paddock in a 1 for 2 deal on offense. 2B/SS/Of is what I'm looking for.
-
Oh Donaldson. Only took one AB this year to get injured!
-
Alright lets trade. Need OF and 2B :D
-
Woot woot! NO worries. See y'all then!
-
Sorry about the false alarm. I’ll be free tomorrow at 6 after all.
-
Thanks, y'all! So to confirm, Junker, are you a hard no for tomorrow evening? If so, I'll set up another Doodle poll to figure out an alternate time.
-
I have a bit of flexibility in case we do make a time adjustment
-
I have another draft at 12:30 so cant do during the day
-
I am good for anytime during the day, but I can't do 8
-
I may not be able to make the draft if it’s at 6. Would we be able to push it back to 8 pm or up to 11 or 12 am?
-
Hey, everyone! Quick reminder that the draft is a week from Sunday. If that doesn't work for anyone, please let me know ASAP.
-
One last-minute team change: Kevin and Andrew will be taking over Redacts. Pretty sure that kleborp now knows more of the owners in this league than I do.
In any case: hi, y'all! I've enabled one round of penalty-free cuts for Redacts since we're post-keeper, pre-draft. If y'all could make those cuts (should you wish to) in the next few days, that'd be great.
-
Surplus calculator is claiming that Votto, Paxton and Freddy Peralta are net values, so if someone wants to swing a last-minute trade for one of them let me know.
-
Looking to see what the best offers on Olson and Castellanos would be. Hit me up.

Also, I could still use a catcher and some mid-range help at OF/SP. I don't want to keep Freeman but I will if I have to.
-
Keeper deadline is Sunday night! You can still make trades until the last second, but anyone you trade for after midnight Friday can't be dropped.
-
We're down to one date in the Doodle poll that works for everyone so far, so I've gone ahead and penciled that time in for the draft. If it's not good on your end, speak up.
-
Scherzer is available under similar terms.
-
Top-end SPs will be at a premium at auction. I'm looking to move Strasburg for a cheaper keepable player (flexible re: position) who would be an upgrade over my current starters.
-
Thanks for the update, Lumber. Welcome to the league CoachCrupp and lumsden.
-
Hey, y'all! 2021. We made it. Some updates:
A) James is taking a fantasy hiatus for 2021. He will be missed--but welcome to our new managers, CoachCrupp and lumsden!
B) It's looking by all accounts like the season will start on time, so here's the Doodle poll to plan the draft: https://doodle.com/poll/iz2r6ycuskh3ugeh Next few months are obviously... a bit uncertain... so we can tweak this as needed.
C) League dues are due on the keeper deadline, midnight January 31st. Get them in. Thanks!
-
Thanks to everyone for arbing! Enjoy the trade season. I'll start the discussion for setting a draft time in January or so.
-
Arbitration season is live! Remember that you can go back and change your selections anytime before the deadline, but all of your team's arb money must be used or none of it applies. Don't leave me/Jay/kleborp hanging.

I’m glad we don’t do this
-
You're hilarious.
On a serious note, trades are now open. Hit me up if you want to get some catchers, some OFers, some 1B and some Carlos Correa in your life.
