Hey guys, my name is Chad Supp. I'm taking over The Angry Irishman. First Ottoneu league for me, but I'm a veteran NL-only 5x5 player. May take me a day or two to figure out the nuances of the site, but I'm happy to join here. Thanks.
-
I want to encourage you guys tho to put your money out there and then go back in a week or to and see what everybody else has done. That way you can move it around and really toy with people's emotions.

Just taking a look at the progress with arbitration and I hope everybody is having as much fun with it as I am. Looks to me like we have had $191 allocated, which is pretty good. Means at least 8 managers have thrown their money around somewhere

Reading the older messages on the board, for the record, I do not mind changing scoring systems.

This is my first Fan Graphs league but I have been playing fantasy baseball for 20 years. I look forward to getting to know everyone.

Hey guys, my name is Pete Grassi and I finally got to take over Kenny F'n Powers. I am glad to be on board with what appears to be a fairly active league.
-
Matt, Kenny Powers was opened up for myself to claim.

I honestly would prefer not to switch. I understand the value in the points system, but I joined the 5x5 league on purpose and not a points league.

it also opens up the player pool for relief pitchers. You have 5 roster spots for relivers and if you dont have a guy getting saves, then why bother.

i feel that it helps give a more accurate account of each individual player's performance vs stats such as wins and rbi

just to clarify, the first email did not address the scoring changes, but in subsiquent conversations with those who responded, nobody opposed

A week before the season ended, I sent out an email to everybody and the 5 people that responded agreed to the scoring change. We had 3 people who were out of the league. so I figured 5 out of 8 was a quorum.

When did the scoring format change from 5x5 to Points?

The arbitration process is pretty cool

I hit enter too soon, apologies. Hey all, I saw this team available on the abanodoned teams list and was looking around. I saw Kenny Powers team is open and would like to claim that one but had no way to get in touch with the league. Is it possible

Is there any way to do their arbitration allocations without them managing? I would hate to lose 3 arbitration allocations because no one fills their spot this week

Hey guys wanna give you a heads up, we are looking for I think 3 replacement managers this offseason for old cock and balls (I changed his team name), Angry Irishman, and Kenny Powers. If you know anybody interested, shout them a holler.

ya it looks like it will be pretty fun and interested to see how it turns out. Looks like you can go back and adjust your selections as well.

That arbitration allocation thing was actually pretty fun. I hope everyone else does it before it's over

the $2 increase is not part of arbitration. that happens with both systems.

So since all of the players had their arbitration increase like usual, does that mean we aren't switching? Or can we reverse that and then do the new system?

can you link the article, i dont see it.

I'm in favor of the new arbitration process and increasing the buy-in.

makes it more interesting. Just mull those two things over and get back to me on here or via email.

also something i would like to talk about before the offseason gets here is possibly upping the entry fee to the $50 teir. I know for me i liked the $10 fee initially to just test out the waters and the thought of playing for a prize fund always

The only vote that matters is a veto vote, usually I dont vote at all, unles its a veto.. which I would never do anyway, unless the deal was suspect. Not sure why I voted that particular deal?

im not trying to police anybody, i would just like to see better voter turnout

As long as there is no collusion, I allow any and all trades to go through. I am not the "trade" police, people have the right to manage their team as they see fit. I dont have to agree with it, and certainly in no way, needs to benefit my team...

Jesus Montero, Yasmani Grandal and Devin Mesoraco are all available if someone needs a young catcher. I'm looking for pitching

As another GM why would you allow the trade to go through that does not benefit you but instead hurts other teams in the league?
