Assuming that the two who made the trade approve it and the commissioner abstains, that leave only 9 potential voters. It seems unlikely to get 7 vetoes out of 9 unless the trade really upsets just about everybody. I personally hope it goes through because I'm hoping to swap Duda & Flores for Hosmer & Altuve.

I'm also still interested in hearing from Strawberry Fields. I'm sincere when I say I really don't like vetoes, and I'm uncomfortable with this situation even as I post about it. But if NYmetsfan83 has some new-player regrets over it, I'd be happy to see it reversed. If not, this is a weird mess to think about, and hard to apply the veto.

He has played fantasy but not ottoneu.

There's probably not much to be gained in responding to message board posts that have been removed, but I'd like to say I don't think less of any owners because of the trade we're discussing. I would have accepted it, too. Correa, man. Jackpot. I'd still prefer to play in a league where it doesn't go through, though.
-
Has Strawberry Fields played Otto before?
-
Sounds good to me, Batazos.

Not the commissioner veto, I should clarify. Not using that. Just my vote out of our 12 teams.

Just so the league knows, I am personally abstaining, but in order to correct Iorg's reflexive approval, I will use my veto so that his vote counts.

I'd like to hear Strawberry Fields explanation as well

Actually it is probably not up to me anymore at that point, which would be fine.

I will encourage everyone to vote their minds on the Correa trade (and other trades, for that matter). If the league votes to veto (7 votes), I will certainly veto.

It's extremely one sided, but I would like to hear Strawberry's reasoning before I do anything.

So, I'll lobby the rest of you to vote to veto and keep this from processing. It's so mismatched that it is either based on a pretty fundamental misunderstanding of the scoring. At least, that's the most palatable explanation. For a few good reasons, this one shouldn't go through.
-
I know what you mean. My approach is to allow trades between two willing parties when there is no collusion, and I know the motivation here is based on fandom. But I'm always open to feedback.

I've never voted to veto a trade before, which is probably remarkable considering all the time I've buried in fantasy sports leagues. But I logged in to vote to veto the Correa trade -- and reflexively clicked "approve." Old habits die hard.

At this rate my short-lived time at the top will be over before another pitch is thrown!

He said he's currently in the process of re-running stats for the first half & it's still in progress. As far as I know, it's not one specific issue.

I suspect yes. It looks like we both increased in points (and perhaps other teams, but I recall your lead being 10 points too). I emailed Niv to see if it is a specific issue or just a series of unrelated corrections. We shall see.

Has there been a scoring correction? I swear I had a 10 point lead yesterday, and now it's down to 4...

The league has approved the new owner of A Lidle to the Right (which I expect will change names). Please join me in welcoming Dewayne to the league. He is a Mets fan living next door to me in Braves Country. I'm pretty sure a portion of his league fee goes toward paying Bobby Bonilla's salary through 2035.

Yes, perhaps even since the beginning if I am remembering correctly. I didn't ask for reasons, but he still has the keys to the team and can weigh in here if he wants.

Did brieger share why he was leaving? He's been here a fair while, hasn't he?
-
For what it's worth, I will be happy to abstain from trading with this owner for a period of time (or indefinitely), if it makes everyone more comfortable accepting someone I know in real life. I've seen that concern before and understand it, although I certainly have no intentions to take advantage of anyone.

A Lidle to the Right's owner has let me know he plans to leave the league. I have a real-life friend who would like to join us. He is knowledgeable but has not played ottoneu. Any objections? I'm putting up a poll on Doodle, but of course you can post here too if you want to voice concerns to the league. Please vote by the end of the day Tuesday 7/12, and if we reach a consensus in favor (or abstaining), I will offer him the team. Poll link: http://doodle.com/poll/3cct5xduvnrcxt3i

Bummer of a trade. Super sorry it nixed the Harvey/Cordell/Alford for Bautista/Stanton/Hammel offer I'd been so carefully considering.
