very early head’s up to everyone that the keeper deadline is Jan 31, 2023. rosters freeze from that date till the draft.

Rhys Hoskins now very much on the block... (Also basically any of my IFs or RPs)

Hot stove, baby! I’m looking to swap Scherzer for a market-priced or maybe maybe a tad overpriced $20ish starter. But I’ll also be looking for MI and OF help (like everyone else, I’m sure)

open to offers for Soto, though also not desperate to move him.

Thanks everyone for completing arbitration—another 100% year. Looking forward to some hot stove action!

if you don’t complete your allocations by Nov 10, or send me a message promising to do so before the deadline, i’ll assume you’re unable or unwilling to do so. that way we can replace you in time for the new owner to make the arb allocations.

2 teams left to allocate and just over a week to finish. if you don’t make your arb allocations, i will remove you from the league.

only 3 teams left to allocate. just a reminder, completing arbitration is mandatory to stay in the league.

i see it as more of a spirit of the rule issue, and the problem we were trying to fix was ppl picking up a ton on guys right before rosters locked. no one did that this year.

I think we have this same debate every year, and it feels like we come to a different conclusion every year. But agreed it shouldn't matter much--nobody's going to have more than 40 guys who are plausible keeper candidates, let alone more than 40 guys who might attract arbitration dollars.
-
Yeah, my interpretation is the same as Vlad's, but I also think it doesn't matter much. I'm ok with either outcome
-
I don't think it's correct that rosters need to be at 40. Rule I(b) about needing to be at 40 and under the cap refers to "during the season." And the Offseason section (Part VIII) really suggests that having more than 40 is OK between the end of the regular season and the keeper deadline. I think this is why the rosters are locked right now.

And of course all rosters are locked right now so we cant cut. Think we ran into this in prior years and had to wait to do arbitration.
-
rosters are locked, so we’ll just have to make cuts after arb.

All players must be reinstated from 60 day IL within 5 days after World Series completion so I believe there should be no exception to have more than 40 man rosters.
-
60-day IL guys don’t count against your roster limits

yes, thanks for the reminder—everyone should have a legal roster, too.
Pavin Meadows on
October 17, 2022 10:23 PM

Shouldnt we be cut to 40 per team first?
-
arbitration has started. it’s mandatory for you to complete your arb nominations before the deadline.

Donated--congrats Framber, and thanks everyone for another great year!
-
Haha, that's great. I've accumulated some of those loser achievements.
-
For anyone wondering, when you come in dead last in six picks and spend at least $110, you get the "Los Angeles Angels" achievement
-
Congrats, Rusty! I donated to the shelter I got my pup from - awesome suggestion.
-
New round of playoffs version Pick Six starting now. Entries due by 12:00 noon.
-
Donated to ASPCA

Made my donation to Humane Society. Congrats again, Russ.

I see Six Picks is running through the MLB postseason. I may actually try it if I remember on Friday.
-
Congratulations Russ! Well done. Also, congratulations to Dave for doing an outstanding job as commish. And a hearty thanks to the rest of my league mates for staying involved and making this such a fantastic league. Looking forward to the Guardians-Padres world series!
-
Thx all. Nice job by Croney, too, for almost taking 2nd place but for Ranger Suarez. But as many have noted, everyone in this league remain active thru the year and make this league super competitive and special. The wife and I are animal lovers and share our lives with 2 dogs, 1 from the Santa Fe shelter. Please give to your local shelter or The Humane Society.
-
Bravo, Rusty!!! Well-earned!
-
Look forward to donating to your charity of choice.
-
Congrats Rusty!! Well done. 2 years a bridesmaid and now the blushing bride. Amazing run in a very competitive, participative league.
-
Congrats to you Vlad for getting to cover the MLB postseason.
-
Rusty Great job you did a awesome job managing your roster all year. Chuck

My biggest congratulations, Rusty! This is a VERY hard game, and victory is well earned. It’s such a joy to be this league that’s somehow this competitive and this positive. Looking forward to arb season!

Hearty congratulations to Rusty, who richly deserves the victory! Rusty never rebuilds and never quits, just a pure competitor every season. I’d be delighted to make a contribution to your charity of choice. I also want to give a hat tip to everyone else in the league. We had nothing but fun, positive vibes all year. You guys rule.

Agreed on all counts. Thanks to everybody for being engaged.
-
Congrats to Russ on a great season, and thanks as always to Dave for doing a tremendous job as Commish (while putting together a great season himself). If you get a chance you should wander around the global leaderboards. If you do I think you'll see, as I've seen, that Ottoneu leagues like ours are clearly the exception. Grateful to all of you for making this weird little game of ours competitive, and fun. See you in the virtual hot stove.

it will be a remarkable accomplishment if we get 5 teams with 18,000+ points

That would have been the deepest darkest 5 o'clock shadow on a 13 yr old, ever.
-
Clearly with Pujols on board for '23 you could move a prospect like -- oh, no one in particular, let's just say Jordan Walker -- and set yourself up for a championship run.
-
Everyone asks if Pujols lied about his age. No one stops to ask which way. My sources say that when he was drafted in '99, he was actually 13 years old.
