I have never been happier as a FBB commish, esp in a league with such depth, detail, etc. We are 100% paid, ~likely to be 100% up to date on roster cuts, we avoided needing to do a doodle, we had an active off-season, we had very low turnover. Awesome job guys, looking forward to keeping things competitive in 2021. Let's hope for a shitload of games.

Those looking to make moves and need saves, please search the available free agent RP market. I'm willing to move one of my closers!
-
We're 1 week away from cuts/payment deadline. We're in good shape with the large majority already paid up. Lets get some final deal made!
-
Draft day and time is good for me. BTW, anyone interested in Sherzer? He's pricey at $54, but I'm dropping him at the deadline, and judging by the lack of SP available at this time, I'm assuming his draft day price is going to be at least in the upper $40's. I'm looking to cut cap space, so if anyone is interested shoot me a message. Also, I'd rather just release him to the draft in the spirit of competitive balance than give him away for a player(s) who won't help me at all or has no future.
-
Sorry it took me a few days to get back to you guys. The draft date works fine for me.
-
I’m flexible, any Saturday works for me.

Draft date is fine with me. I don't know what I'm doing next weekend, let alone a few weeks from now.

We do have quite a few already paid for the season, but just a reminder that the end of the month/keeper deadline is when payment for 2021 is due. Obviously we won't be drafting without that all squared away.
-
Ace / RI Reds / Horsin' / 1776 / Acuna yet to chime in. All others obviously please let us know ASAP if the current draft date does not work. Avoiding the offseason doodle's would be fantastic!
-
I’m flexible on dates as well. Later in the evening is easier for me to pull off, but I’ll figure out a way to make it work if we stick with this time.
-
I’m flexible with any draft day.

First priority is absolutely 100% attendance, just wanted to get the convo started now. If we don't have a form NO for the current date I think we try and take that
-
I'll make any day work. I'm generally more of an advocate for later drafts so there's more info available (injuries, who's making rosters, etc) but fine with whatever works for the group.
-
My only preference with the draft date is that it's one that everyone can attend. Nothing is worse than having a team or two sit out of the auction draft.

I’d rather the early draft too, but I’d also just go with the majority
-
And as for the start of the season, https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2021/01/no-delays-expected-for-start-of-spring-training-2021-season.html
-
I'd agree if any of that impacted managing a team like this, which is more or less done the same regardless of those outcomes. With or without minors, we'd still stash prospects. DH in one or both only changes valuation of a handful of players which is more or less like waiting around until spring training is done to rule out injuries.
-
I am normally in favor of starting earlier but the unknowns (season start date, minors, DH, etc.) makes me want to wait. I may be in the minority on this one and will do whatever the majority wants.

I'm hoping to have as little inactive time as possible to allow for less dead time as we approach the season. Please chime in, also let's get the trade blocks updated and make some moves!
-
Hey all, the draft is absolutely subject to change. I can do a doodle if we must, but I'd like to attempt to just pick a date and have it settled. As I am writing this I realize this is Super Bowl sunday probably kickoff, so I'll aim for Sat.

Welcome!

Welcome! It appears we have a new owner for our inactive squad. Looking forward to a full offseason of active owners!
-
Hi everyone - new guy here, taking over for Gent. Gonna take a quick look at this roster and then will be ready to make some deals. Looking forward to the season.
-
I've abandoned Gent's team and have it up for grabs on Otto, should hopefully have a new owner soon. Good luck with the off-season trades, try and update those trade blocks!
-
Last call for arbitration. Gent's hasn't been on in like 2 months so not too hopeful. Prepare those trade blocks for the offseason!
-
This Sat is the Arbitration deadline, once that is complete we're able to off-season trade until roster cuts are due. We'll start focusing on a draft date around the holidays.
-
Appreciate it, aiming for 100% arbitration for sure.
-
Just to make you guys aware im working on this.
-
Hey all, arbitration has begun! I'll be doing my best to ensure we have full activity for arbitration and cuts, off-season management, etc. If you have any indication that you may be leaving the league please reach out so we can do whatever we can to get timely replacements and keep competition robust from all squads.
-
Thank you, it was a tight finish to the very end. I'm glad this crazy season is over. Hopeful that next year we can get back to normalcy.

I'll email the chat log with Niv to ya Ace to verify the move.
-
It'll be randomized to either Ace or myself for $4, don't worry about your roster Soto as your $1 bod shouldn't have been included.
-
Not sure what happened to the Alvarado waiver claim but it's being looked at on Otto's end.
-
Nice draft. It's officially over instead of letting it time out. Trade away.
-
**Yes of course you can draft below a given valuation, that's the whole idea lol. It was just a reference to the start of a boxing match: I want a good clean fight. Stop when you hear the whistle, and no hitting below where your belt should be.
-
Draft is TONIGHT at 6:00pm EST. I want a good clean draft. Nominate when you hear the whistle, and no drafting below where the valuation should be.
-
I might be a little late to draft, but will be there
-
I'm just afraid if I don't have something to look forward to on Sunday, I'll jump into another NFBC draft and I really don't need any more leagues to keep track of. lol

I will admit I have an absolute itch to draft ... and open up transactions again.

Let's go with Sunday.

I don't really care so long as everyone is there I'm fine with either date. Feel free to message me if Sunday doesn't work and we'll do March 8.
-
I'm hoping for this Sunday if it remotely works for everyone, just because no one knows if something will come up between now and March 8th.
