I dunno, if buehler comes back as normal walker buehler, that guy at $5 is worth more than Olson at $29, I think. If he doesnโt come back as the same guy, then I probably win the deal. Itโs a risk on both ends.

Again, just interested in the dialogue to see if I was missing something. I don't think either trade was a good trade, but if all the parties involved are good with the moves, then I appreciate the thoughts and I'll recalibrate my valuations!
-
Not making accusations of nefariousness, just was having a hard time rationalizing the returns. A top-3 reliever for a guy well over avg price putting up under 4 ppg--catcher eligibility notwithstanding--seemed like a stretch. And take minor pieces out of the other deal, the #2 1B (and an easy top-5 points league bat this season) at an under-value price--plus a cheap top-5 prospect on the cusp of a call-up for a guy coming off TJ is a stretch no matter how you spin it.
-
On one end, hader doesnโt look keepable at $22 and apparently Hats for Bats like Melendez, whoโs still catcher eligible next year. On the other end, $3 Buehler could be an elite keeper, depending how he comes back, brash and Alzolay are similar, and a few other things for mainly Olson whoโs gonna be at least $29 next year. I always have a side I prefer in any trade, but I genuinely donโt see any issue

Iโm confused as to which end of things youโre confused about. Obviously, Iโm involved in one of them but they look stone cold fair to me.

always appreciate non-combative discourse! on the one i was involved with, i was seeking help at RP and H4B was more interested in keeping a hot hitting 24 year old with prospect pedigree and C/OF eligibility than hader at that price. on the other deal, if each manager thinks it makes their team better i'm cool with it. and i think that's what went down.
-
Hoping Buehler comes back strong and overpaid. Thought I had pulled Lawlar back but did not so ended with a bit of the short stick.
-
Trying to find the least combative way to say that I'm confused by both of those trades--but I'm confused by both of those trades.
-
Think it's just a case of two heavy traders and is Whitlock average, good, great? Cause I change my answer often.
-
Oh Garrett Whitlock traded again and again. Intriguing trade history.
-
Lol yeah we're determined to go down swinging--for better or worse.

Thanks commish! Yea, snuck by one more round there. But really going to need luck on my side to make a run at the playoffs. Should be fun to watch at least!
-
Good luck today WD. Look to be in great shape for making it to the next round!
-
Ha, thanks! My team isn't exactly optimized for the OPL format, but I was happy to sneak into the 2nd round!
-
Congrats to our lone OPL rep. WD is on to the field of 170.
-
sheesh. i guess meadows didn't take to the news of the trade very well

Kopech gives up 4 homeruns in one inning...

Hey guys - running just a few minutes behind. Probably wont be even 5 min late.
-
Finally draft dayโฆnow can the injuries please stop.
-
Maybe it was that the time zones mixed me up and not the other way around, lol. Also, this is in the middle of the sweet 16...So, that's gonna take away some attention too. Plus, I reside in Spokane and that makes Gonzaga a big deal in these parts.

What with the draft cutting into dinner time these days. Eh, btw, I was promised California whether and Iโm getting is pure fuckery. Can someone turn the rain off?

And to my friend Devers, remember, draft time is 8pm *ET*. That's 5pm for you (you too now YJ)! Devers missed our draft in another league a couple years ago due to mixing up the time zones.
-
I'd remind y'all about the draft, but I can see that isn't necessary. Everybody here has already logged in over the past few days to get their draft boards ready - almost all over the past 24 hours. JaBO rocks. Only problem is we're not going to be able to sneak our favorite sleepers through. See you tomorrow night!
-
Draft Day Confirmed: Thursday, March 23, 2023 5:00 PM PDT. See you all next month!
-
Wow, the draft day poll just tightened up in a hurry. One more check mark from either PANDA SHIELD or SCRANTON STRANGLERS and draft day will be Thursday, 3/23!
-
Yes sir. Thrilled to have everybody back!
-
The 5 NVs are a little concerning. Is everyone paid up?
-
Trying to go out of town and help move my son that weekend after he closes on his house so everything is TBD anyway.
-
If I can't make it
-
We were given one option during the week and no one is against so I'm a little confused. Schedule it for either day and if u can't make it I'll pick up waiver claims. I don't have much cap space.
-
Same, the later the better as I'm in CA.
-
No prob for me if we push it back to any time later

Sorry for the typo...for the 5 missing a vote on 3/23 (Thrs) please vote!
-
WTF, I saw you note that Friday "isn't great". We're only missing you for this slot. Would it help if we made the Friday time one hour later? Would this be a problem for anybody else?
-
Thanks all for voting! To free up your calendars, Im cutting potential draft times to 2 options. Friday 3/24 @ 7pm ET is the clear frontrunner. I heard from AoK and he can make this time work, which gets us to 11 available. The dark horse is Thursday 3/24 @ 8p ET. Only 7 have indicated availability for this time so far, but nobody has indicated they are not available yet, so no reason to close this option yet. For the 5 missing a vote on 3/24, please let us know.
-
Not super optimistic the weekday option will work based on past polls , but happy to give it a shot. Added another option - Thursday 3/23 at 8pm ET. Have also removed choices where 3 or more people had conflicts. Setting a deadline for this Thursday to get your votes in so everybody can block off the time in their calendars. Please vote ASAP and try to be flexible so as many of us as possible can participate. Thanks! https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/b83x46ra

I can also do weeknights. Most nights I would need them to start at 5pm PST or later.

We can make most nights work (including weekdays), but a start after 7:30PM EST would absolutely be better no matter the night.
-
Yeah, I was gonna suggest we at least try and see if some weekday night works

Any chance to do it during the week? That Friday isn't great for me.
-
Draft day update: With 7/12 managers sharing availability so far, the best scenario we have are 2 slots where one of us can't make it. I just added one more option for the last Friday evening (3/24) before opening day (3/30) in an effort to see if we can find a time everybody can make. For those that have already voted, please indicate if you can make it to 7p ET/4p PT on 3/24 as well. The sooner we can confirm a date/time the better. Thanks!

Poll has been corrected to March. Sorry WTF, please select your dates again.
-
Yikes did I really do that? Good catch YJ. Updating now.
-
Did you mean to make those march dates? I only see February, two of which are this weekend. I wouldn't be able to make any of those fwiw

I think the last few years we've drafted on the 3rd weekend of March, which has seemed to work best for most of us. Though we always offer an alternative. I'll be traveling the last weekend of March so have added March 18th and 19th as alternative dates. For each date I have included 3 times that should accommodate people from coast to coast (1p ET/10a PT, 4p ET/1p PT, and 7p ET/4p PT). As always, your flexibility in selecting all possible options is GREATLY APPRECIATED!

Yes, thanks AoK and GP. Hope y'all have had a good week. Happy to report it's JaBO's version of MLB's Truck Day. It's Doodle Day!
