Hah. I feel like I *should* want to draft earlier—more certainty doesn’t really do much for the poorly prepared, and last year maybe I got lucky in our February draft—but I find it’s impossible to care, especially this year (as anyone who has sent me a trade offer knows).
-
I would prefer earlier rather than later. I like the uncertainty.
-
The later the better. If we have to schedule it now then the week after FCA would be okay even if we’re on a regular schedule (though it might be before spring training even starts this year).
-
I'd prefer it a week.sooner, as an appetizer so to speak
-
Someone has requested that we schedule this league’s draft. The other draft is Sunday March 13. Do we want to do this one in the same timeframe? A week later or earlier? What do people think?
-
Please make a draft date, if memory serves me correctly, this league drafts a week previous or so to the main league.
-
New park dimensions got Mancini cut
-
I should say "slightly" lesser
-
(1) With 1B eligibility only and my overdrafted finances, I would consider trading Vlad for some lesser, but much more affordable player. Perhaps a 1 for 2. (2) With Thanksgiving in the books I'm relaxing at my in-laws and actually have some downtime.
-
(1) is there a black friday deal on Vlad? (2) apologies for my lack of response to trade offers (in both leagues)—seems hard to pay attention. Will say most have been for guys I’m thinking of signing and trading with a loan.
-
Speaking of Woodruff, I am entertaining offers. Looking for offense and targeting '23.
-
Thanks Mikey!
-
It was me. Idiotic. Too much going on…
-
Isn't there a penalty? I say put those $2 on whomever made the mistake. Unless that was me.
-
I went and removed the $2 from Woodruff's salary

Someone still has arb on Woodruff
-
Thanks for the reminder.
-
There is currently $13 worth of arb dollars assigned to the 4 protected players. Everyone please revisit your allocations and remove any arb currently on Woodruff/Tatis/Alvarez/Will Smith.

I’m taking that as a “yes.”
-
So protections are in place for Woodruff, Tatis, Will Smith, and Alvarez. Is that it?

The Steve Bartman incident was 18 years ago today, a date which shall live in infamy . I was there and you could have heard a pin drop after Cubs gave up 8 runs that inning.
-
Kevin's sandwich was terrible
-
I'll protect Alvarez from arbitration.
-
It is a nice caveat of being able to protect someone, cause otherwise 5th place is the worst
-
Drew got the better of that one
-
Drew traded me his arbitration protection for a club sandwich. Ill use it to protect Kohei Arihara.
-
I'll protect Woodruff.
-
Drew and Hook, I think you still need to declare who you’re protecting from arbitration
-
Getting wine with the proceeds ?
-
Got the payout. Thanks!
-
I'll protect Will Smith

10/15 I meant
-
Arbitration.starts 10/13 so we had better declare
-
I choose to protect Tatis from arbitration
-
Got it Mikey thanks….
-
Alright, I'm just going to assume my math is correct and payout what I posted yesterday. Please let me know when payments are received. Thanks
-
I forgot about the protection rule -- and the beer rule. Damn! Even when I win, I lose. ha.

…If I had been in Brent’s shoes (and paying more attention) I’m not sure I wouldn’t have benched my team down the stretch in an attempt to snatch that six-pack from Coop. Fun season everyone. Thanks
-
Okay, I’ve calculated things out. This year’s payout is based on a $600 base (twelve $50-entries) and $512 from 2020 and 2021 salary cap penalties, totaling $1,112. Payouts are a nice $556, $278, $166.80, and $111.20. Beyond that, positions 5 through 8 get to protect 1 player from arbitration, and… I had completely forgotten this… Charles has to send Coop a “six-pack of local microbrew.” ...
-
Henry made some brilliant moves and deserves much credit
-
Congrats Henry. Nicely played. That winning margin is larger than I thought it was going to be just a few weeks ago.
-
I’ll try to calculate the payouts today and post them for someone to confirm.
-
Congrats, Henry.
-
So far :)
-
Thanks Pat. I can't speak to FCA, but things always seem to turn my way here.
-
I don’t think there’s any risk of jinxing you now Henry, congrats on a great season! Is that 2 out of 3 (and both full seasons) here?
-
Henry you can buy a lot of wine with your winnings
-
Well, it was a longshot anyway
