Thanks for that, Lump.

To any rebuilding team with cap room: Phillips is a walk rate stud and fairly close to the majors. Claim him on waivers and get my team under the limit. And if you want to speculate on Homer Bailey, I would appreciate that as well.
-
Dammit I forgot about the $1 for each available roster spot move. Robles is the only one of those guys I actually wanted to cut.
-
May8th and I'm resigned to the re-build. Looking for young cheap and talented.
-
Looks like we've got ourselves an arms race.
-
Thanks for sharing that, didn't see that article.

check out today's FG article on OTTONEU Power rankings...the number one 4x4 Rotisserie team is our own LatosIntolerant...congrats!

Alright guys... it is now May and we have a sense of where we all are ~15% into the season (which is to say, my team is obviously going nowhere). So - I will start entertaining offers for Bryce Harper. It honestly does not matter to me who I trade with, it's just an open rolling bidding process. I'll jump on the first deal I like. I need pitching desperately, but I would also obviously consider offensive contributors too.

and as if Doom called fangraphs on my behalf...Fullmer's stats are posted
-
thanks...just curious...I don't expect Fullmer's outing to carry my pitching staff this week
-
Things update slowly for recently-called-up players. I remember it used to be impossible to put someone into a lineup on their first day, so it's better than that. I suspect you'll get stats, just maybe a bit late.

anyone familiar with stats on new call ups...I'm not getting any stats for Fullmer v Twins tonight...no "green arrows" before the start to show he was in the lineup...just wondering
-
I didn't, but then again I have zero cap room. I think I'm happy to treat it like a normal trade. In both instances we've had so far, the person who received nothing in return is the one who initiated the trade talks. So I think it's safe to assume that they saw some merit in selling the player. As long as the owner is shopping his player by making multiple offers, I think it's fine. No need to post when half the league is operating with $5 in cap room.
-
Did everyone get an offer for Torres? I know I did... If so, I guess I'm ok with it. Maybe the better way to do it would be to offer the player for free here on the message baord and see if there is more than 1 team interested. This way there can't be any question of impropriety.
-
Gotcha. Sorry for jumping to conclusions. We had a long discussion about this type of move prior to you taking over the team, but we're all still getting used to the player-for-cap space move.

*roster cap

question wasn't re fairness...just trying to understand the effect on roter cap...still learning the ropes, one strand at a time
-
He will have to cut a player after it processes, but I'm not sure what that has to do with it being fair or not. I get something (saving a dollar), and it would be the same decision for doom if he had won an auction for a player.
-
question re the Justice-Doom trade...won't doom need to cut a player to make this deal?

I have no issue with the trade
-
I think it's fair, but I'm happy to open it up to the league and see if we can come to a consensus. But I believe active salary cap rules make this fundamentally different to the Duda give-away from the offseason.
-
Do you mean trading a player for salary relief? The issue with the Duda fiasco was that in the offseason, it's impossible to trade for cap room because you can just cut the guy and get the same effect. Here, I did a 2-for-1 with HM and Schwarber hit the 60 day, so I had spots opening up and only $3 in cap room. Lump gets a role player he was interested in and now I can afford to play the waiver wire again.
-
I thought we nixed these directed waivers?
