I can’t do 2/17-21

Not unreasonable... a couple more options, move it all the way back to 3/25 so we all operate with maximum info (at the expense of putting the Firehouse in bubble wrap for an extra four weeks) or move it up to 2/18 so that we're all equally handicapped by the lack of information while P&C are reporting. Anyone have any strong feelings or, better yet, conflicts with any of Feb 18, Mar 4, or Mar 25? Do we need a Survey Monkey?

Any way we can move the draft back a week?
-
Looking to trade Scherzer for cheaper pitching. Let me know if interested.
-
Date works for me.
-
Also, I've preliminarily set the draft date for Feb 25 @ 1pm ET to roughly coincide with the start of Spring Training games. This is not set in stone, so speak up if you'd like or need a modification.

Just a reminder that you've all got about two weeks to pay for your teams (the seven of you that have yet to do so) and make penalty free cuts (also seven teams, though not the same ones, and even those who are "legal" may well be making more cuts) ahead of the Jan 31 keeper deadline. Tommy Pham did just sign with the Mets, so... the stove is at least still a little warm.

Happy new year guys! Now that the news we've all been waiting for has broken, that being the fate of Trevor Bauer in a Dodgers uniform so that he can ultimately go where he belongs (that is, Queens), we can concentrate on our Jan 31 keeper deadline, which is a short three and a half weeks away. That is also the dues payment deadline, so please be sure to get that settled as well. We can also consider a draft date, without the interference of a work stoppage or virus (one hopes).

No idea if Click makes that move, but I like the upgrade. 3 year deal isn't too much of a commitment and Abreu's profile is aging really nicely.

Will you look at that, speak of all the devils and we get Jose Abreu to the Astros... someone post an "It's Happening" GIF, please. Russ, what do you think, any chance that signing happens if Click is still in charge?

I don't think anyone is really paying much attention at this point, Tony. We have at least one owner who hasn't been in for two weeks, a couple more out at least a week presumably bc of that thing called Thanksgiving. Perhaps next week's MLB Winter Meetings will bring a transactions thaw and we'll see some Firehouse action as well?

Alas, I wont be sharing in Mack's record winnings. But I am happy to share in another Houston win.

Russ, hope you made a large furniture purchase from Mattress Mack earlier this year. To the rest, hope you enjoyed the WS and I'm here mostly to remind the three of you who have not yet done so that you have about a week to mull your arbitration assignments before the extended "hot stove" period begins ahead of the January 31 keeper deadline. See you all for some horse-trading in a bit.

Also, in the event that you have a DFS-like itch to scratch, you might want to go check out a Fangraphs points derivative game that Niv set up called Six Pick; it's free (though perhaps this is simply a beta run to see if it is viable as a pay to play game) and an interesting way to dip your toe in an alternative points scoring format, which you can check out using this URL: https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/sixpicks/viewDay?session=7&date=2022-10-19

Hope you all enjoyed the division series' much more than I did. Popping in to note that the arbitration window has indeed opened and, with the exception of Kyle (who is way out ahead of the rest of us), that you should get to work on or at least begin to think about getting those set up before it closes on Nov 14th. Also, and though I hope not to hear it, if you won't be back next year please let me and/or Paul know ASAP so we can work on finding a replacement owner.

I'd also like to congratulate Harry on the stellar third place run, with an honorable mention to Kevin for showing us all how to pull a team up by the bootstraps even when the going is rough to start ($300 of impending incoming loan hell aside).

Thanks, guys, I suppose I should await the stats corrections so will simply say making that run at Josh was tough as hell and I'm happy to have merely pulled even with him. I think, since he's joined, he's never not cashed and that's damned impressive. Now we can all take a breather and enjoy some playoff baseball while the inflation and arbitration adjustments kick in. Hope to see you all back here in November for that hot stove.

Sorry my guys hit .192 on the final day to drop you down a peg, Tebow! Congrats on great seasons Tebow Forever and Kings of Crash, well deserved co-champs!

Wow! What an amazing finish! Congrats guys!

Actually I feel more like the Tigers. Or White Sox. Maybe any AL central team that's not the Guardians

Fat ladies and all that, Josh... good luck today, there's still a lot of play in some of those categories. I'm certainly not counting up anything yet.

Why the cheap heat Joe? If it's about Leclerc, you're balling out over there with all that cap space so make it rain baby!

Not sure if anyone else noticed, but Niv added a nice feature to the Standings that shows which categories your team is losing points each day. Or gaining, I suppose, but from my perspective it just shows the numerous places where your team is leaking oil as it plummets down, down, down...

Kyle, I hear ya, the incoming owner had to have been "Soto for half a billi... nah, I'm not signing thee papers till he's gone" and that's not exactly encouraging but Rizzo got a damn HAUL and I'm not sure what else he was supposed to do there. Granted, I'm used to an FO working without two nickels to rub together with the Guardians so YMMV.

You already knew that, Joe, you kept him last winter! I just want to revel in that debut, and that the Padres had to basically turn over their entire org to catch a Dodgers team that was just like "nah, we're good, we'll just call up Vargas." And trade for Gallo, I guess that was pretty important...?

You tellin me I got a keeper here with mr Vargas??
-
I am a Nats fan. I can confirm I did not enjoy it.
-
It also works as to why the Dodgers were so chill and the Padres were hair on fire active, but I hope you all enjoyed the generational trade deadline activity just the same (even Nats fans... that was a pretty damn fine return!). Our own Firehouse deadline is still a month away, and I wish those of you gunning for the bag a good race to it.

"I just felt incredible and I didn't feel like anyone could stop me." - Miguel Vargas, on stealing third base last night specifically, but likely describing his future more generally.

Clearly I bid on a bunch of stiffs…didn’t think I’d literally get everyone of these guys. Oh well.

Looking to swap power/RBIs for SBs or saves. A reasonably priced Bregman and Stanton are available.
-
“Know the feeling” not “enjoy” it’s definitely not enjoyable
-
Trust me, I enjoy the feeling my man. Good luck to you.
