• I'm interested in packaging Lindor and Jose Ramirez for a SP. Hit me up if interested.

• Grumble grumble... 5 minute lock rule on day games..grumble. If anyone can't tell, my fantasy season is not going according to plan, so I'm amusing myself on the message boards.

• Bartolo Colon might be the greatest athlete in all of baseball, so Bart for Trout is fair imo.

  Silver Spur Mustangs on April 27, 2015 2:18 PM

• I don't really think $10 is going to matter too much in the long run. They both agreed to it. They each must think it makes their teams better. I've never vetoed a trade and I don't intend to start now. Unless Mosaic tries to flip Colon for Trout. I'd veto that. Although I think Jack Z would too.

  suckiest bunch of sux on April 26, 2015 11:54 AM

• I'm a big proponent about letting trades go through that aren't exactly fair but the extra cap space is more valuable than any player included here.

  Heart of Darkness on April 26, 2015 10:42 AM

• Yeah, McCutchen has dead money there to cut. No need for the salary.

  Heart of Darkness on April 26, 2015 10:40 AM

• I don't see anything terribly out of line there. Why the campaign to veto? Mosaic is climbing the standings. Seems overly interventionist to me to veto this. More lopsided trades have gone through with no comment!

  Quincy Infants 👶 on April 26, 2015 10:39 AM

  Heart of Darkness on April 26, 2015 10:33 AM

• It's April. Lot of season left

  Swamp Angels on April 26, 2015 10:21 AM

• Just because I have cap space doesn't mean I'm rebuilding. I'm offended.

  Swamp Angels on April 26, 2015 10:20 AM

• I get that morneau is sitting on bench most days, but with the need he fills for mccutchen, I would have taken a more forward looking approach. I also note that mosaics team is better than me...my statement was just based on salary used.

  Mississippi Sanitation Knights on April 26, 2015 10:18 AM

• I'm voting to veto. Colon for morneau is fine as is. But mosaic isn't competing this season, and colons value next year is questionable. The loan on top seems excessive.

  Mississippi Sanitation Knights on March 31, 2015 10:44 PM

• Thanks for the clarification. So there is a consequence for the nominator if no one bids. As long as we all understand the rule and adjust our own bidding behavior appropriately, that's fine I think.

  Swamp Angels on March 30, 2015 11:24 AM

• According to the rules page if I start an auction with no bid and you bid $1 then you will be awarded that player for $1. So no, the person initiating the auction would still have to bid. There is no automatic $1 bid for the starter.

  suckiest bunch of sux on March 29, 2015 11:57 AM

• Hmm. If I start an auction but don't bid, and one other team bids $1, does it do the coin flip thing?

  Swamp Angels on March 29, 2015 7:46 AM

• I just reread the auction rules and it does not state that the nominating team must bid. Only that if there are no other bids the player will be awarded to the nominating team for $1. I agree that the nominating team should be required to place at least a $1 bid. Jersey, do you think this is something that should be brought up to the caretakers here at Ottoneu?

  suckiest bunch of sux on March 28, 2015 7:29 PM

• If it is indeed the case that you can start an auction and not bid on it -- and I think you can, it's a two-step process to "start auction" and then bid -- then I think we should have a rule that you must bid on all auctions that you initiate.

  Swamp Angels on March 28, 2015 7:00 PM

• I guess I didn't realize we arrived at that conclusion last year. I thought there was an automatic $1 bid.

  Mississippi Sanitation Knights on March 28, 2015 1:28 PM

• I thought I bid but I only would have bid a dollar anyway

  Heart of Darkness on March 28, 2015 1:09 PM

• Yes, but I think we learned you can actually start an auction and then not bid on the person. Maybe that's what happened here?

  Midnight Rabbits on March 28, 2015 1:00 PM

• Edit Team B does not show up on the list of bids for Burns. But I'm pretty sure that's the team that started the auction for him. Right? Didn't we have this problem last year too?

  Mississippi Sanitation Knights on March 11, 2015 9:26 PM

• Damn, that really sucks. Expansion - you must be feeling better now. Stroman was going in the 18th round or so in ESPN leagues, I was going to be all over that in my redraft league.

  Midnight Rabbits on March 10, 2015 3:15 PM

  Silver Spur Mustangs on March 6, 2015 4:01 PM

• I'm a Red Sox fan so I sure hope he's worth those $12 for the next couple of years while he works his way through he minors!

  The Raw and the Cooked on March 4, 2015 3:44 PM

• I looked at what Bryant went for last year and saw 16 and figured that would be the upper end. That said 12 plus a $1 this year, and probably $2 next year assuming he gets September coffee. And we could all allocate some inflation to him! Certainly a risk that needs to be taken for a rebuilding team with money to burn. And if we all bid $8 -- he could have been had at $9.

  Mississippi Sanitation Knights on March 3, 2015 8:32 PM

• Call me insane but I got him for the future for $12 not bad

  Black Sox on March 3, 2015 1:20 PM

• I knew I wasn't getting Moncada with my $8 bid, but the max bid was $21? That's just insane... he's 2 years from the majors!

  Midnight Rabbits on March 3, 2015 1:05 PM

• Thanks -- I'm assuming the player pool was the same across all leagues and someone would have suggested Lopez by now-- he signed awhile ago and is supposedly closer to the majors.

  Mississippi Sanitation Knights on March 1, 2015 1:36 PM

• if you can't find a player in the pool, send an email request and Niv will add him to the pool. i actually wrote to him to add Moncada to the pool before our auction but he wasn't added in time.

  Swamp Angels on March 1, 2015 1:15 PM

• Why is moncada available and lopez not?

  Mississippi Sanitation Knights on March 1, 2015 12:57 PM

• Ahh, they're both minor leaguers.
