Good luck spinning, been fun. And to borrow a phrase from one on my favorite fellow owners in this league, namaste. Let’s enjoy the rest of the season! Gonna be fun
-
I am certain at this point, I won't be returning next year. Just too much life in the way. I will continue to co manage the team and I would expect transactions to be scrutinized by the league with a yes or no vote. Thank you to those that sent nice messages my way. Its been a pleasure playing and I will do my best to stay engaged for the remainder of the season.
-
Not on you spinning, more just find it funny that even though I have reached out multiple times to get a friend in the league to fill open teams the commish ignores the and finds his own people to fill the teams. Among other things he ignores. No worries either way, carry on all.
-
That is still my intention, however I don't want to handcuff any of you trying to make a run or those leading the league. A tough spot I put you all in and I apologize for that.
-
I apologize for the late response here. Wow, lots of discussion. A few days before I announced on the MBs that I was leaving the league, I messaged the Commish. Shortly after I was told he had someone that would fill in as a Co-Manager for the remainder of the season. I was okay with this however I would not approve of any wild trades as my intention was to maintain the integrity of the team. So that the next owner would have something to work with.
-
There is a league finder and others have spoken up about having a member available. Again, not opposed at all to this move, just commenting on the unilateral decision making being something I seem to only have an issue with in this one league.

I’m certain that any moves by Seams, especially any trades, will be watched closely by the league and commented on or vetoed if warrants. And there’s zero infrastructure within Ottoneu, to my knowledge, to actually help the commissioner make these kind of league changes in any other way than how Swallows does it. I also think it’s unreasonable to ask for anything beyond a minimal extra effort. I have no issues.

I'm kind of with Cosby, particularly because the new owner appears to share 2 other leagues with Swallows. I'm not opposed to the shared ownership thing or even the new guy (welcome, Zwibi!) co-managing, I actually really like that for transition. I am absolutely concerned about the complete lack of input from the rest of the league when it comes to major decisions that impact our shared investment. More or less it's Swallows way or the highway on things like this, draft date, time, etc.
-
I don’t have an issue with it. I think that’s part of the commish’s role.

I’m not talking to you
-
After discussion with Seams, he was good with this as he said he still might return. Not sure why you think you have a say in that. This way integrity will be maintained through the end of the year. Not sure why you think you have a say in that.
-
Is anyone else here concerned that any opening in this league is filled unilaterally by the commissioner with no consultation with the rest of the league?
-
FYI Seams has a new co=owner. He will run the team thru the end of the season. Seams said he might return, so this is the best of both worlds.
-
Best of luck to you, SpinningSeams. It was a pleasure to play with you.

Sorry to hear man, wish you would reconsider we’ve had a great league. If you do leave I have another owner who will probably take over
-
Folks had a fun couple of years. Thank you for that. I will not be returning next year. So if you have a friend or know someone that wants to take over a team...
-
I picked the wrong day to drive back from vacation. Lots of action here yesterday

Fair enough.. blew all my keepers already anyway. Hoping to make top 3 so I can afford to come back next year
-
faded your roster when i probably shouldnt have
-
Sad I didn’t get an offer!
-
gimme the loot i want a free 2022 buy in amirite?!
-
its weird when you spam half the league with offers and theres a cold accept within a hour or so. no slow roll or burn. glgl. im coming for third place, maybe second!?
-
Means I’m in first lol. Have fun!
-
I, too, have nothing but respect for Tigres.
-
Net total trades made means nothing without viewing net total trades sent my friend.
-
Especially if it helps me fend of my biggest challenger (tigres)
-
Don’t know what you mean by that but I make more trades than anyone here so I think my offers must be fine. Always open to more though!
-
cold accepts are most fun though
-
All in favor of active, increased trade offers. Be they ridiculous or not, we all value most players wildly different. Please do not hesitate to send me Cosby quality shenanigans if you want to open a dialogue. Best to Fancy
-
gonna piggy back those ridiculous offers with some of my own. looking to offload some pitchers for relief arm, or outfield power. if im close tickle me with a counter pls. ... gl fancybears
-
FYI... I spoke with Fancy Bears 10 days ago. He is dealing with a difficult personal issue for the last few months. He will try to get in when he can. He wants to stay in our league. Please have patients with him as none of us would want to go through what he is having to deal with.
-
Swallows is probably just broken up about the degrom injury like I am in my other leagues. Rough year for pitching!
-
Sorry got upset after getting a couple of ridiculous trade offers that included some extra cash. I've got a commish in another league who does whatever they can to game the system and it's frustrating. That one and this one are my two original leagues so that's doubly frustrating.
-
Chill.

Looking to boost my OPL chances. Hoping to trade Oneil Cruz ($4), Brandon Marsh ($4), and/or some cap space. I also have others I am willing to move. I will move Brujan (he has been asked about fairly frequently), in the right deal, but it would have to be a pretty hefty haul.

I am away on business for the month of May. I will still be able to respond to offers and messages, but it will be after some delay as I have no internet access inside the facility I’m working in.

As always looking for SP upgrades.. Willing to discuss pretty much anyone in the right deal..
-
I don't knock the veto whatsoever Tigres, just stating my preferences. No hard feelings and appreciate you do around here. Maddeningly so
-
i vetoed it before bastards said anything. lol. i dont think anything is wrong, just the 20 dollars is too much for me, but im just one player. 20 dollars is 5% of your payroll. it bought the likes of blackmon, moustakas, goldschimdt a few weeks ago in our auction. it can used as a heavy piece. half that amount seems to be a more standard. but im also a nit. glgl
-
Wow, I missed alot of communication this evening. Coaching, sorry. I feel I should chime in because I am directly involved. Trade was made where two owners agreed. Nothing else. You can go back and read the messages grom this afternoon, if you haven't already. If the league decides to veto, then we can try to renegotiate. Should be simple process for every trade.

Cool! Have at it...

As the initial objector, I think we should use the veto process and accept the results. No need for commissioner intervention.

I’m for letting the process play out. This is what it is there for. I agree with Cosby here. Canceling without letting people use the veto option could become a very slippery slope. The vote is private, and no resin need to be given. I personally will not be voting to veto, as I see no reason to.
