Need help to pass Chief and take home the 2019 trophy? Listening to offers for Madbum. He has put together some nice outings lately. You got to think he will get traded to a contender with the trade deadline around the corner. Lmk

RE: HR's - My pitchers seem to give up HR by the bucketloads but my hitters don't seem to hit them .... and .... if I tune in live to a game in progress with my pitcher .. the first thing i see is a batter drilling a no doubter into the cheap seats.
-
I literally think I’ve had more starts from my pitchers this year where they’ve given up 3 HRs than I have zero.
-
Good luck gentle people! My ascension to top 3 begins tomorrow.
-
Best of luck to all in the 2nd half
-
Best of luck, KRR, with Folty. I started him for all but one of his starts this year. Literally the only start he didn't give up a HR was the one that he was on my bench.
-
Thanks for the quick response! Welcome. Feel free to re-cut Cutch.
-
Roger that!

Welcome new owner of Dodgeville. You’ll have to go back a bit to find the post but please review and renew for 2020 prior to making any roster moves at all. Any moves made prior will be reversed. Thanks.
-
Carlos Carrasco and his weird blood condition are on the block. Looking for more immediate help.

As regards Rick Porcello, same Dodgeville Knights scenario as before, the new owner didn't reply to messages requesting he renew within 48 hours and was asked not to make roster adjustments. Porcello will go to Pirate Fan for $3 and I will be abandoning the current Dodgeville owner.
-
I want to trade Trea Turner or Trevor Story, both elite SS, for an elite OF. Willing to take on lots of salary or dead weight you want to cut to help avoid the cap hit.

Yes he needs to go back to Dodgeville and I'll make that adjustment.

Should Joey Lucchesi go back to team Dodgerville?

As the new owner of Dodgeville has not yet paid to renew per our rules, and has not replied to messages requesting he renew and not take part in any roster moves until he has, the following roster changes will be made. Kevin Cron will be added to Charros for $4. Bryan Reynolds will be awarded to Benders for $5.
-
Welcome, Maverick. Please read the post from Arise. You’ll need to renew your team for an additional year prior to making additional roster moves.
-
These rules were agreed to by the original 12 owners, many of whom are still here, and are not flexible. If you pick up Dodgeville Knights, the abandoned team, please do not engage in any auctions, trades, cuts or other personnel moves until you have renewed the team for the 2020 season. Any moves made, I'll reverse, so it just saves a lot of time for all involved. Thanks.

Hi, welcome to our league new owner. We have firm rules in place in this league re renewals and new owners. All renewals are due 10 days after the end of the World Series so we ensure all owners are locked for the arbitration period. Any new owner in mid-season is required to pay for the following season now--this is to display a willingness to stay in the league for the next year, not to play in our league for a free partial season.
-
The following is here for any new owner who joins.....
-
So I offer Taylor Trammell, Nico Hoerner, Ian Anderson for Springer and it's a hard no. Then, Dodgeville, after your "Just abandon my team" and a PM from me asking if you're in or out since you're bidding on auctions, with you telling me you're out for sure, you trade Springer for a single $10 prospect? Instead of trying to find a mid-season replacement I'm going to go ahead and abandon your team and let a rando get it. Thanks for playing.

Haha, OK, I'll take the hit on that one for not being thorough ;-)

Jr hasn’t played since 2017 and is in Indy ball I think.

Was reading this and just lit up those mentioned: https://blogs.fangraphs.com/sunday-notes-pitchers-pop-ups-and-unnecessary-deference/ I'm poking around here so happy to pay the price for any mistakes.
-
That's Jr, not Sr.
-
Well. Not kill the auction. But pull the player from your roster.
-
If yes dm me and I’ll kill the auction.
-
Is this Bichette auction a misclick? I can delete it if you’d like.

How do we get folks into the system again? Do we have to ask Niv to promote them?
-
I would very much like to abandon my team. If someone could please make that happen I would appreciate it. Thank you.
-
Anyway, I will have an abundance of depth at MI with Trea Turner getting off the IL soon, so if someone would like to make me a compelling offer on one of my MI I’m all ears. Just don’t ask me to send you Trevor Story for injured P and a big loan. : )
-
Snells: well said. No one is telling anyone how to run their team.
-
And because people vetoed a trade doesn't mean that anyone is telling you how to run your team. The majority of the league agreed that this trade wasn't balanced and in the best interest of the league. That's simply all that was stated by the vote.
-
You're free to cut bad contracts. But to trade them away and cover the cost of the contract changes the landscape of the league from year to year.
-
No tantrum here. It has just been made clear that the majority of the league doesn't believe I should be allowed to run my team the way I choose to.
-

It's also an enormous waste of the time for the many of us who have been in this league since Year One or Year Two. Not sure if you play much Ottoneu outside this league, but this style isn't designed to be transient so you're not going to find many people happy to play with you if you're the type to treat these as one-year leagues.
-
That would be an enormous waste of money and some second grade tantrum shit, to join a $100 league, have your league vote down a trade where you take on pitchers with arm injuries in return for three elite RP and an overpriced stud with a loan to make that stud underpriced, then immediately go from active to "I'm out" over the veto. I'll abandon the team in a month or two if you're not active.
-
I'd like to abandon my team.

Copales Charros's trade block has been updated!
-
I personally think loans can be a great way to keep leagues active as long as the implied risk is fairly balanced.
-
So I actually don't think the loan is the worst part of this trade. I see a lot of trades (as a function in being in way too many leagues) and generally speaking when any $40+ player moves, a significant loan comes along with it. I think the more objectionable part of this trade is that the risk exchanged - both Glasnow and Kopech look like they have significant value concerns due to injury and Tucker is way overpriced.
