You've deleted your sales pitch. You don't like the trade in your opinion. That's fine, just put your vote in. And if you get DM's, you should tell them to do the same. But the trading owner did like it. I believe I gave up a lot. I don't believe they are cuts. I spent that money on them. I guess it depends on how much money is available, but if you use Fan Graphs projected salary, they are under the average cost. We went back and forth with many offers, and this offer was actually
-
I didn't ask for a veto. Only asked that everyone vote because I was getting DMs and we only have 11 manager currently.
I could go on and on about why I don't like the offer but I will just say that Machado and madbum are borderline cuts at those prices and a $38 Acuna is worth more to me than a $70 Trout
-
You do the math on the numbers and there shouldn't be a problem on this trade. Acuna and Machado are close in price, take out last years slow start and the are comparable in numbers as well. Bumgarner outscored Fried. Now add in the numbers and price tag of Gurriel and Voit along with a prospect added in, and you can't justify a veto by the numbers. Just because you value a player differently is not the basis to veto. There is no collusion here either.
-
Acuna had 1114 points, Fried 705. Machado had 840 in what was a down year for him as he typically is around 1000, Bumgarner had 918, Gurriel had 922 and a great price, Voit had 707 in a shortened season and is a great price, and Dalbec is a upper tier prospect projected to be up next year at $2. It's one thing to value players differently and I understand Acuna is the shiny new toy. But don't call out vetos unless you can justify a lopsided vote. I sent back a strong package to him.
-
I am not doing it for every trade. Just ones like this were I get DMs from other managers. I understand it's your trade, sorry about that.
-
I don't think as Commish, you should be putting your sales pitch to veto a trade. I've never seen you request owners trade with any trade in the past. Owners can vote as they wish on every trade. But just because you view players differently, doesn't mean you should put your sales pitch on the board. I expect you to do it for every trade from now on. I think everyone needs to look at the points from players being traded and you'll find there is nothing wrong.
-
Going to have to veto. Don’t even think that would be a good deal if it was just fried

Need everyone to vote on this trade. Have gotten DMs.
-
Anyone have a decent 2b to trade?
-
I'm cool with whatever rest wants on league fee
-
I'll change $75. Whoever already paid for 2020 will be refunded the $50 and will need to pay $75
-
Yeah. I vote against h2h and playoffs too
-
$75 is fine... No to H2H

I'm for 75$
-
In for $75. Out for playoffs.
-
Im down for $75 tho
-
Can we vote on h2h playoffs or nah? Just seems more a well rounded format since a 6th seed could technically win it all if they got hot at the end. Either way just curious on what others think
-
Since we have new teams, let's vote again on increasing league to $75. As discussed below, if we switch, the winners will receive a much higher % of total pot vs $50. I believe the payouts are +25% respectively.
-
But it would be nice if everyone updated the trade blocks 😉
-
Basically, if you send a scam offer, people will think you are over estimated you players and devaluing theirs. Therefore there eis no need to reapond5
-
Well I don't know what your offers are but many people won't respond to something that is super lopsided.
-
It would be great if everyone would update your trade block. Let everyone know who is available for trade. If I make an offer, counter if you don't like it. Most times, I only have small interest, so counter to see if we are even close. I can't read your mind to know your value and we all value players differently.
-
Alright im in like with my team I'm done trading fellas i need to shut er down. See y'all at the auction!
-
Me2
-
Just realized im gonna be that guy swerving on $1 players at the end of the auction. Sales expensive with elbow n all lolol
-
Divide. Not decide
-
Well, count the number of spots you need to fill. Decide that by cap room. I like to have at least $5 per a spot to spend.
-
I'd say it ranges from $150+ to $10 just depends on what you keep. After seeing the Yelich deal I might look at moving Mookie

Hey guys. Quick question. What would be the average amount of money that is set aside for the draft. I'd guess 60 or so but not sure
-
I added mercado back by request. He said it was an accidental click
-
Definitely fucked up that trade with Cole Train. Meant to ask for an additional player but i guess i misclicked. Just looked all my trades over n realized this.. yikes
-
Damn... High expectations from the new management, cutting loose a $5 Mercado...

Welcome to the league
-
New owner here. I feel like I’m behind a little for the excitement so send some offers my way while I figure out plans for my squad. I’m always open to dealing anyone if the offer is right.
-
CMart and Upton are likely non-keepers if anyone is interested in either. I need SP and MI depth.

I have Goldy if anyone is interested.....only asking for a couple of decent relievers. Don't have to be top of line guys. 400 pt guys. 350 to 400

Really wish that other team had been available when I was looking yesterday.. but that's part of the fun and the challenge...
Always looking to deal, so hit me up.

Guess who's back???
I'm guessing only one or two (Laser & Kruk)of you could guess, because everyone else is new here... I was actually in this league for 4-5yrs and left in 16 or 17?...it's possible I even founded it back in the day (tho my memory isn't 100% on that)...acted commish a few years.. Suffered a multiple defeats to Laser on the final weekend of the season... All that kind of good stuff...
Anyway, glad to be back and looking to improve this roster
