I would imagine native son Olson's hot start helps mitigate the loss of Freeman for Braves fans. Both are gold glove, no loss on defense either.
-
Just thought it wise to bench Smyly @ Rockies
-
Perhaps quality and SP are now an oxymoron
-
I'm looking for my offense.

yeah, I'm shopping for an SP too. Will deal Luciano, or, Bregman or Machado
-
I will be looking to trade top prospects for quality SP .
-
Buxton hurt again , I should have done a beer bet over under for plate appearences with him
-
Well, it's been three years and he hasn't implemented it. So probably not a real priority despite the length of that discussion.
-
That's really interesting. I've seen some other one-line comments that are basically, "not a priority."

A quick search led to this April 2019 thread where he clearly did not see it as a “feature”. Maybe he’s changed his mind since then but it seems clear this wasn’t an intentional result.

Has he ever given a rationale for it? A basic principle of game design is “there’s always a tradeoff” but there isn’t one here.

Niv has addressed this a couple of times in the forums and his response is basically "This is a feature not a bug."
-
Niv should fix this, there should be no free rides—especially for the 1st place team. In real price enforcing there’s some risk the enforcer pays the price, but not here.

“If two teams are tied for the highest bid, the player salary is that amount” applies to Brusdar. No one is ever forced to pay more than they bid.

I'd always just misunderstood this rule then

Do you think the Brusdar result is in conflict with this?

All in-season auctions are Vickrey auctions with blind bidding. The player is awarded to the team that makes the highest bid, and the player's salary is $1 more than the second highest bid. If there are no other bids, the player is awarded for $1 or the player's cap penalty if applicable. If two teams are tied for the highest bid, the player salary is that amount. If no one bids at all, the nominating team is awarded the player for $1 or the player's cap penalty if applicable
-
Yeah, Wright is $7 because I bid $7, if I’d bid $6 I’d have him for $6. Also Fred just cause other people do this doesn’t mean you have to; you don’t see Idaho doing it in Capped.

That is correct. The dollar bid only works if someone lower in the standings bids $2
-
That only works if someone actually bids more than 1$ on the guy. If all bids are 1$, the player is awarded to the mgr lowest in the rankings...pretty sure.
-
I don't see any issues Fred. Do you have a specific example? (I looked at Graterol, but nobody bid $2 on him..)
-
I bid 6$ on Wright ,as I actually wanted him, and his salary is correctly 7$ for Bat.
-
While I'm in first I'm biddingg 1$ on everyone to do the standard price inforce
. There is some glitch where its not working , guys are being awarded for 1$ , should be 2$. Could someone investigate ?
-
Will he be the guy to finally strike out Kwan? Will he at least outscore Kwan today?

The nick lodolo era is upon us . no matter whose team guys are on, I love the newly arrives to do well. Like Brash yesterday
-
There was some glitch, Brusdar should be 2$ not 1$
-
Back on a real computer where I can check the rules…of course a save is worth more than a K. But 3Ks are worth more than a save so in theory (though of course not in practice) there’s still no upper limit….

I think a strikeout with the batter reaching first on a passed ball/WP, followed by another K, would be 1/3 of an IP with 2 Ks and the save, so a little better. In theory this could continue until the save is lost…but I think a K is worth more than a save, so there might not be a theoretical maximum.

Suzuki is a star , John Rooked us all
-
Brooks Raley currently has 1/3 inning pitch. It was a strikeout and he was credited with a save. Does that mean his 28.41 P/IP is as high as it can possibly get?
-
Wow, Fred, have yourself a day!
-
Giolito to miss two starts is all
-
Haase was auto benched ,unfortunately

Jeremy owns both hoerner and burns

Mccutchen has always hit Hendricks , so far 2 for 2 with a double
-
Who had “the first batter Burnes faced” as the first BB of the year? Looks cold in Chicago today Brew.

That's funny, don't drink too much, Brent is a bad influence
-
Brent and I headed to a Rox @ Dbacks game. Maybe we both should wear paper bags over our heads.
-
no brent .Dbacks are in the hideous to watch catagory
-
I'll take Rowdy
-
my prediction - Renfroe takes Hendricks deep for the first HR of 2022.
