• Warde is into Free Agent Fodder now. Sveet can have Prospect Manipulator as soon as he gets me a FG ID (it's not mikemc). -Ian

• Can we talk about how flipping stupid it is to play those first two games in Japan and have them count as the regular season then go back to a week of spring training before the real season starts? I've never heard anything dumber and I read Dbullsfan's comments on DRB.

  Willy Adames Never Molested Kids on January 25, 2019 10:57 AM

• Understood. Fair enough. I may be able to log in, but since there's timers, I'm gathering sat comms will not work well. I've got no real chance at competing anyways this year, I'm still in building phase, so even if I miss it that's ok.

  And Here Come the Pretzels! on January 25, 2019 10:56 AM

• I'd be fine drafting the first week of march, it's not as critical in otto as drafting too early in a redraft league. But we should set up a doodle once warde and sveet are in.

  Jhost/ynxon on January 25, 2019 10:47 AM

• I say flip a coin to assign these two new managers to the two old teams instead of letting them take their pick. We'll never hear the end of that.

  Willy Adames Never Molested Kids on January 25, 2019 10:46 AM

• The first game of the season is 3/20-21 then a week off then everyone plays 3/27. It is incredibly hard to get 12 adults (?) together at the same time so I hope everyone respects each other's time. You being gone for over two weeks during the prime time to draft means you should be finding a surrogate you trust that can draft for you and not expect everyone else to move things around.

  Willy Adames Never Molested Kids on January 25, 2019 10:45 AM

• Sveet is mikemc, warde is wardehill as listed below. Both veteran DRB users

  Willy Adames Never Molested Kids on January 25, 2019 10:43 AM

• Here's the other guy: wardehill @gmail.com

  Willy Adames Never Molested Kids on January 25, 2019 10:43 AM

• I concur.

  And Here Come the Pretzels! on January 25, 2019 10:32 AM

• The site renders fine on mobile if that's your concern. I was setting my lineup and checking who was active mainly via mobile for a few months last season and I was actually surprised at how not-terrible it was (at least relatively)

  Jhost/ynxon on January 25, 2019 10:23 AM

• If you need another open spot to recruit these guys, I've been contemplating leaving. I'm just too busy, and the lack of a mobile app makes it difficult to keep up while i'm on the go. If you need me to stay for another year, i'll make the best of it. Seems like a good group and a fun league - but I've got 3 kids and my wife and i work full-time...life is exhausting. :) -oom-papa

• Also, can we start talking draft date, unfortunately I'm offshore for a chunk of March 10-27, weather dependent. Love to do it the first week of March. If that's not possible that may change my last days of trading strategy.

  And Here Come the Pretzels! on January 25, 2019 10:20 AM

• If either doesn't work, I have two that have expressed interest in the past, I've not pinged them since it looks like you have it covered.

  And Here Come the Pretzels! on January 25, 2019 10:09 AM

• Okay, let's say that Sveet gets first pick of the two teams. Then Mikemc004, then the other guy (if Sveet doesn't actually get in). They can email me their preference and their Fangraphs handle at imalino@gmail.com, and I'll make the switch. Thanks for finding peeps.

  Sveet on January 25, 2019 9:28 AM

• Here's one: Mikemc004 at yahoo and I have another guy that wants to play, big Rays fans, former DRB vet just waiting on his email. West coaster so might be a few hours.

  Willy Adames Never Molested Kids on January 25, 2019 7:31 AM

• I don't care who it is as long as they're active. Sick of people missing important dates and giving up a month in.

  Jhost/ynxon on January 24, 2019 11:58 PM

• Lot's of talent on those 2 teams. It needs to be sorted out. Players need to be kept or put back into circulation.

  Coming Down on January 24, 2019 10:38 PM

• Sveet is the biggest asshole I know and therefore the best candidate I can recommend. He has interest, but only in the top tier. I told him to reach out to John, but not sure if he followed up.

  Willy Adames Never Molested Kids on January 24, 2019 10:33 PM

• Okay, so we'll go ahead and bring in new owners for Prospect Manipulator and Free Agent Fodder. It's a shame, those were both guys who have done well in this league for a while. First, check with your friends. I'd prefer to bring in someone we know, since they're more likely to stick. If you have no takers by the weekend, I'll do a call on the site, and come what may. -Ian

• Congrats on getting hitched. What should we do about the teams that look like they are dead? Some of us are trying to shape up our roster and it's pretty annoying to see so many teams being completely inactive. I thought this was a high level league? I feel bad for whoever has to take those teams over after keepers lock. This on top of allocation getting fucked up bc of those same inactive teams. This is fine, though.

• At the very least they should be given a chance to make keeper decisions

  TTBNL on January 22, 2019 1:16 PM

• If we have to replace owners we should do it to where new owners have about a week to make trades.

  MakeitRayn on January 22, 2019 12:20 PM

• Anyone heard from the two owners who haven't had activity since September? I know PM is debating, and even he's checked in since then. Keeper deadline is awfully close.

  Willy Adames Never Molested Kids on January 17, 2019 2:57 PM

• So, is anyone here tied into the developers of the Ottoneu? I'm wondering if there's any disscussion about how pitching may be changing w/ the using of relievers to open games and the rules regarding starting and relief pitchers. It may be good to think about points for just pitchers w/out the distinction. I have no suggestions, this site has been set up much smarter than I would've been able to make it. Just a thought over coffee...

• Funny, I thought the Champ was ragging on me.... I value the versatility, but I'm not going to be able to compete this year anyways and I think Malix has a higher ceiling.

  And Here Come the Pretzels! on January 4, 2019 7:45 AM

• Needed the versatility. Had a surplus of outfielders.
