• Oops didnt mean to bid on rojas. Damn.

  Anaconda Cut on August 14, 2019 9:01 PM

• Alright guys. I was thinking I could have a season a few games over .500 and win my division. I am about to drop under .500 losing the last two weeks to teams that had 4 & 3 wins respectively when I played them. I am open to trading. I think anyone could be had for the right price but I will update my trade block to those I am most likely to move.

  MLBRaleigh on July 28, 2019 4:50 PM

• Oh, got you. I did not realize that with Lester. Thanks again!

  MLBRaleigh on July 28, 2019 4:44 PM

• Lester got removed from his scheduled start but for some reason it stuck in the system and counted. It was ottoneu wide.

  Proletariat Stars on July 27, 2019 6:41 PM

• pleasure doin bidness, shoopy!!!

  Swamp Donkeys on July 27, 2019 5:50 PM

• send the offers, boys. wiling to pay salary for prospects....

  Swamp Donkeys on July 27, 2019 3:55 PM

• Thank you, Brian.

  MLBRaleigh on July 27, 2019 9:58 AM

• Paxton sucks.

  MLBRaleigh on July 26, 2019 8:21 PM

• Not following on the Lester thing.

  MLBRaleigh on July 26, 2019 8:20 PM

• Fixed. Blame Jon Lester.

  Proletariat Stars on July 26, 2019 12:17 AM

• Thanks.

  MLBRaleigh on July 25, 2019 11:50 PM

• Smelly, I've checked it out and yes it looks like an error. I've posted in tech support to have it looked at.

  Proletariat Stars on July 25, 2019 9:38 PM

• AGAIN!!! thinking lightning cant strike twice, i stick with musgrove vs mikolas..... FML

  Swamp Donkeys on July 25, 2019 9:26 PM

• Commish... somehow I lost a start this week. It says I have 7 remaining but only Archer has started a game for me this week. He pitched Tuesday and has been my only started to go so far. What can be done?

  MLBRaleigh on July 25, 2019 5:20 PM

• Somebody's gonna get stuck with an $11 A ball pitcher or a $16 reserve IF.

  Sandlot Sharks on July 20, 2019 12:09 AM

• I am about to lose to a team who's owner has not been on site but once in the past 6 or 7 weeks and averages about half of what they have scored already this week with 3 days to go. Ugh.

  MLBRaleigh on July 19, 2019 9:54 AM

• Money to burn boys ;) I didn't even realize that information was viewable lol

  Proletariat Stars on July 17, 2019 7:20 PM

• Guess our $3 bids really underestimated his worth.

  Sandlot Sharks on July 17, 2019 7:19 PM

• $16 for Brosseau

  MLBRaleigh on July 17, 2019 6:54 PM

• Story of my yr- musgrove v mikolas. I choose musgrove cuz we get 9 starts over the period.

  Swamp Donkeys on July 16, 2019 12:19 AM

• i was thinking about emailing him about it

  Swamp Donkeys on July 13, 2019 7:26 PM

• Maybe it's not a loophole. What if it's intentional? Wonder what Niv would say.

  Sandlot Sharks on July 13, 2019 6:53 PM

• That is a site wide loop hole not a league loop hole. Nothing we can do about it.

  MLBRaleigh on July 13, 2019 6:42 PM

• but we do need to get rid of that loophole where you keep cutting, signing, cutting and signing a guy just to get his contract money due lower.

  Swamp Donkeys on July 13, 2019 12:12 PM

• that said, being in several leagues actually helps find free agent gems. one guy in a league puts a player up for auction and you research him a little. then YOU put in for him in any league youre in which hasnt discovered that player. worked in gdr and im sure it works here too. if you want to be competitive with monkeys and shoopy, you gotta put the work in that they do.

  Swamp Donkeys on July 13, 2019 12:10 PM

• this yr has been difficult. im in akron and my oldest moved his family to las vegas. hell teach at unlv. my youngest son is in the nat guard thru bgsu and is deploying to the middle east, so i havent been paying as close attention as i should be. i do my lineups but have missed many free agents i normally would have been in on.

  Swamp Donkeys on July 13, 2019 12:07 PM

• Bully for them for getting deals done. I know I have made many many offers and have only gotten a handful of deals completed. If no collusion is going on and there certainly is not, then so be it. We just have to get better is all.

  MLBRaleigh on July 13, 2019 9:18 AM

• I think this league is increasingly competitive, and it’s a lot more fun with everyone active. Admittedly I’m not super optimistic about my team’s long-term prospects, but I guess that is the nature of trying to win now. As for trading, I’m very active in all of my leagues and try to trade with everyone. It’s a big part of what makes this fun for me. In fact I’m still open to making trades if anyone is interested.

  Rodents of Unusual Size on July 12, 2019 9:12 PM

• It has felt at times this season that its a 2 team arms race between Shoopy & Monkeys but that's a credit to both of them for their drafts and managing their rosters. They both also have done great jobs at filling roster spots with free agent players other teams have ultimately wanted. I'll take my chances with a league with more active owners who trade & make moves than a league where there are only a couple of trade partner options and some teams only make a handful of moves th

  Otto Who? on July 12, 2019 6:49 PM

• I know I make too many trades but that part is fun for me. And I have lost both times I've played you yaong.

  Anaconda Cut on July 12, 2019 4:22 PM

• Some poor team walks into it every week then chomp, chomp, chomp, by Sunday night that team is in the belly of the beast.

  Sandlot Sharks on July 12, 2019 4:02 PM

• Man I want to see what a shoopy death trap looks like lol

  Anaconda Cut on July 12, 2019 3:44 PM

• It seems that too many teams just donate to Monkeys and Shoopy. Am I overreacting?

  STL Wise Guys on July 12, 2019 3:43 PM

• Anything can happen in playoffs! Just have to get in. Red division and the Wild Card are open for the taking.

  Proletariat Stars on July 12, 2019 3:39 PM

• True, but they let us use the slide and the sandbox, just not the brass monkey bars or the shoopy death trap. And Otto is actually ahead of the Monkeys right now so there's hope.

  Sandlot Sharks on July 12, 2019 3:32 PM

• Anyone else think?

  STL Wise Guys on July 12, 2019 3:06 PM

• This league is just a playground for Monkeys and Shoopy.

  STL Wise Guys on July 12, 2019 3:05 PM

• Turns out...there is a rule...its 9 starts total for this extended week. Plan accordingly.

  Otto Who? on July 11, 2019 12:08 PM

• It certainly wont be 18 starts with only essentially 3 days of games added on to a normal weeks schedule. I dont see them adding any starts for just that. It will be 9 starts and everyone simply needs to plan them out.IMEO

  MLBRaleigh on July 11, 2019 5:35 AM

• Mine says 9 (max) as well. The question is whether its going to reset after Sunday, July 14. Obviously, whether that is going to occur or not affects how a team would distribute its 9 (or 18) possible starts.

  Otto Who? on July 9, 2019 9:55 PM

• Good question. My page shows 9 start max, so I’m going with that until I see otherwise. Maybe ask the online discussion page?

  Rodents of Unusual Size on July 9, 2019 8:32 PM

• A quick question...according to the Schedule page, we have a "10 day" week + 1 game on July 11 coming up. Does the 9 SP starts/week apply to the extended week (i.e. all 10 days + 1 game on July 11 or does it reset on July 15? I'm guessing its the former but wanted to check to be sure. Thanks in advance.

  Otto Who? on July 9, 2019 3:16 PM

• Best/lucky trade was Margot for soto before he came up last year. Worst trade at the time was mikolas for Hanley last year. Right before Hanley was released and mikolas ended up a top 12 pitcher.

  Anaconda Cut on July 9, 2019 3:21 AM

• My best was monkeys worst, but what made it better for me was getting Klubot back for half the price!

  Swamp Donkeys on July 9, 2019 2:56 AM

• Love the discussion. My best trade was getting Glasnow, Adell, Gore and Bauers for Bryant. Flipped Gore for Muncy and Glasnow was key to getting Buehler. Worst trade was Brantley and Mikolas for cap space as Kluber got broken later that night; ugh.

  Rodents of Unusual Size on July 8, 2019 7:39 PM

• My worst trade is a run away. None others even close. While Cal Quantrill has shown some good stuff so far and I believe he is a year away from having a good career I really screwed up trading Peter Alonso for him. I truly thought Alonso was going to come back to Earth this season but not only did he not he went into the next stratosphere. 30 bombs in his rook season. Damn, I fucked up on this one.

  MLBRaleigh on July 8, 2019 5:37 PM

• Since we have some time I wanted to see if we could get some discussion going here. Was thinking we all could let the rest of us know what you feel are your best & worst trades to date in this league. I was considering to be my best trade for Mike Soroka & his $3 contract for simply $10 cap space or me getting Austin Riley for Chad Green straight up but my #1 best trade has not come to total fruition just yet. I got David Dahl, Luis Urias, Mitch Keller & Austin Hayes for

  MLBRaleigh on July 8, 2019 5:32 PM

• Saw that. I was going to write that and also about my miserable week losing to a team I was outscoring over the year by 1500 points. Yikes.

  MLBRaleigh on July 8, 2019 5:15 PM

• My turn this week, Smell. Putting up 823 only got me a 100 point loss. Tough league.

  Sandlot Sharks on July 7, 2019 10:02 PM

• Yes, very sad. I drafted him in GDR as a prospect and had him ever since.
