LMAO, you are the one that brought the shit up. As you said "weeks ago" and not one peep from me about it. Then you opened the shit up on the boards today. I just simply finished it.
-
I think we all just need to take a deep breath and relax. No reason to get upset we are playing a game and games are supposed to be fun. Let's just move on and try to have a good time. You all are great!
-
weeks ago?
-
Jesus Christ, man. Do you hear yourself? It might be time to turn off the computer and take a deep breath.
Okay, so you didn’t like my — what, three offers — I made several weeks ago? Don’t like Judge, even though most consider him a pretty good power outfielder? Could have sent me a message, could have countered, could have really done anything but instead you fly completely off the handle — publicly — and burn a bridge. This is definitely not what I expected after joining... 3 we
-
Anyway, you have a solid team, good luck the rest of the way.
-
I looked to counter but decided you were only interested in getting a lot for nothing so I left it alone until YOUR comments today.
-
...and if it was simply him for Buehler I wouldnt say it was a terrible offer. It is all the other players you put into the deal going each direction. You made horrible horrible offers.
-
LMAO, you have me confused with someone who actually wants to work out deals with you. Those offers? WOW!!! Little tidbit for you. If someone says they are looking for something like maybe a power bat it does not mean any power bat and maybe not one that is on the shelve most of the time which perhaps is the reason you want to trade him....
-
What the fuck are you talking about? More of the same? We’ve interacted a handful of times. I’m new to this league. Are you okay? You come across unhinged.
If I recall, the main piece in the Buehler trade I offered was Aaron Judge. Your block says you need a “Power Outfielder”. You can quibble with the other pieces I wanted back but you made no legitimate effort to counter. Count me out for future deals if you’re going to continue behaving so bizarrely.
-
No crying, responded to your bullshit is all. You dont respond because it would just be more of the same from you. You didnt accept my offer and didnt counter. Hmm, wonder why?
-
I don’t have the time or energy to fully respond. If you’d like to, I don’t know, put forth any effort whatsoever to trade Buehler/Stras — rather than crying on the message boards because a deal hasn’t fallen into your lap — I’ll look at offers. Otherwise, good luck the rest of the season.
-
Just made you guys both offers that are about the equivalent of what you made me. Lets see who accepts first!
-
& Sgt. your offer was not any better. Let me know when a person asks if there is interest in a player from their team that they need to trade said player to the first team that offers shit for that player.
-
LMFAO, Johnny. You make it sound like you proposed trades for Buehler. What you made were trades for many other people with Buehler in the mix. You offered mostly garbage for mostly the only good or potentially good and cheap players I have. Your "offers" were ridiculous and would have stayed between us but since you brought it up on the boards. As far as counters, while you have a very good team, looking at your "offers" I could tell you were only willing to give up little t

As far as trade proposals go, I have been scorned as well.

I love the fact that we are expressing our feelings. Communication is a great first step. Keep up the good work.

I haven’t seen anything close to bullying. Sent several offers for Buehler, was told they were lopsided and received zero counters back. I might be interested in Stras but given that prior trade negotiations went nowhere I’m not very eager to try again.
-
This league is a safe place. Members should not fear backlash from a mere trade block update. Bullying and intimidation have no place in Women and Whiskey.
However, when is Buehler getting traded?
Sgt. Pepper on

I am a bit gun shy to even ask this at what will be certain backlash but is anyone interested in Strasburg or Keuchel?

He did look pretty good. I have mild interest in him. Jon Gray did outpitch him though.

Start #1 of the season and in Colorado looked pretty darn good!

Walker Buehler on the bump tonight. I have a team of scouts there evaluating him.

I am actively seeking pitchers. If you have an access, could be sp or rp send me an offer and we can see if we can get things done.
-
If you had posted Buehler as available in another league I am in, you would have been inundated with offers and probably would have had a deal in 48 hours, yet in this league you receive blowback. Just funny how different leagues can be.

We're starting to agree on things. Our relationship is growing. Good luck to everyone this season.

I agree. I gave too much credit.

My commentary has never been worth 2 cents. It's generally much lower.

No one said a trade was imminent. I simply posted that I was "looking to possibly move Walker Buehler prior to the seasons start." If neither of you are interested in him at this time or if no one is interested at this time it is all good. He is a player I have no problem keeping if no trade partners arise. Thank you both for your 2 cent commentary though.

When can we all expect this Buehler trade to happen? Ken Rosenthal wants to know.

An owner can obviously keep any player as long as they are willing to pay what the salary is which is why there are more then a couple players already over 40 and most most likely will not get cut next off season either. It is about the owner, the player and the team structure.
-
I hesitate to argue points of Otto contract law, but our contracts last as long as we choose to keep the guy. Starting from $40 means nobody can keep that pitcher much longer. You know that's true.
Magic Bus on

All contracts are but "1 year".
-
$40 is jumping off from the highest board. Loans last but one year. You are asking a lot, Smellerino, and while I no longer commish, I can still comment from my humble perspective as a W&W foot soldier, which is what I felt I was doing.
Magic Bus on

Umm. The players I get in return take some of that salary cost away plus there is a thing on this site called "loans". As the former commissioner I would have thought you'd of heard of these things. ;-)

Very few of us have $40.

Looking to possibly move Walker Buehler prior to the seasons start if the pieces are right. Looking for MLB ready players especially a SP'ing arm. Now reviewing offers!!!
-
Anyone honest, diligent, and a bit compassionate will make a great commissioner. We had one, and now we have another. Life goes on in life and in baseball. I love all of you, but the time has come for me to move on. I am an old guy who hopes to keep kicking your hinders for another dozen years. And Sarge is our new commissioner. As Butthead put it, "So let it be written. So let it be done."
So let it be done.

I see, no joke, Sgt. Pepper is listed as commish. Good luck!!!
-
Is this for real or a joke?

Sarge is our new commissioner. You wanted this, and I admit to being an old guy slow on IT. But I have resigned. Pepper is a great guy. C'mon, say something decent to him.

We have a new commissioner, Sgt. Pepper. Wish him well and bon chance. As for me, I will stay so long as I can afford

IF serious, I do work in IT...
-
Not sure if serious, but I'm not looking for a new commish. Probably would have left this league years ago due to lack of activity, but Magic convinced me to stay. Glad I did.

Nor do I have the social skills necessary to take on such an undertaking.

I don't know who did it but there are no instructions for how to end a draft. The league's level of outrage outrages me. You guys can do better, and if not by attacking me, by finding a younger guy to run it. I do not know many of the others, I have come to think I know you and that you will be an honorable and fair commissioner. If as it seems, my IT skills are well beyond sub-par, someone younger should take over. The league deserves a competent commish. I nominate you, Sgt Pepper.
