the mock will start tomorrow, its open to join now
-
When is the mock draft to take place
-
Last week for Arb Votes. Make sure you have yours done.
-
I don't think you vote increases in this league - you vote into restricted free agency instead. One player from each team will be voted into free agency, and that team will be given a $5m discount on the player's price during the pre-season auction, should they choose to bid on them. This can be accessed through the "Arb Voting" link at the top menu. I believe price increases are automatic: $2m increase if a player has played in the majors at all this season, $1m if not.
-
Dumb question, is it too late to vote increases? If not how do I do?

New league is set up, its SABR Points, and it will be a slow draft during the offseason, if interested let me know
-
Arb votes are complete.
-
the ability to run an auction without everyone being on at the same time for 12+ hours to do a full startup draft. I did that last year and it took way to long. it would work very similar to how players are bid on here during the regular season
-
I've never heard of couchmanagers. What does it offer that makes it interesting in your opinion?
-
or possibly SABR points
-
Is there any interest in a brand new league with slow draft on couchmanagers? would be FGPT's scoring
-
Thanks Commish. Glad to be here.

Welcome Chris to the league, he takes over the lowly Lombadozzi team. Be kind to him in Arb, that team was/is not very good and he is willing to pay up and take on the challenge. Chris comes from my old leagues on yahoo, and we have played in the same leagues for at least 10 years. One more thing, he likes to trade almost as much as me so watch for him to make some noise on trade block.

I plan on being back next year too. Sorry for a lack of responses on here. I was swamped with some things and now it's relaxed now. I'm looking forward to playing a full year in this league and competing.
-
Just placed my votes too: some easy decisions, some really difficult ones.
-
Just finished placing all of my votes.

VOTE TOMORROW The vote-off system gives each team in the league the ability to vote on a player on each other team. Whichever player receives the most votes collectively is turned into a restricted free agent that can be bid on by other teams during the auction draft. The team they were voted off from will get an automatic $5 discount towards that player, so if they get the player back, they will get the player for $5 under what they bid. Players who have been voted into restricted free agency c

Welcome Miguel! Glad that all of the teams in the league now have an owner.
As of right now, just 3 of us have paid the $10 to renew through the end of next season. Would appreciate it if each of you could take that step over the next week or so.
We'd also like to get full participation in arbitration this year, which opens up this weekend. Please remember to get your votes in.

Welcome Miguel, the new owner to Lumberjacks, Thanks for taking on the challenge. I took a team last year in another league, from 12th to Champion. So anything is possible.
-
Sure, fine with me
-
Commissioner Planning Committee: We have discussed lowering the salaries for some of the players on the Lombardozzi team. We have had no takers on it yet and the team economics are very poor. We would like to make it an attractive pickup for a manager who likes to rebuild teams and also improve the competetive balance in the league long term. Just wanted to make sure the league is ok with that plan. Everyone ok with that?

Thanks for the opportunity to join your league. I dabble in ESPN leagues, but my main passion is a dynasty league team I have owned for 27 years, so I was excited to find another long-game to play. Hoping to rebuild this roster of yard-apes to something competitive quickly. In general, none of my players are ever untouchable, and this squad is no different. All reasonable offers will be countered...

Welcome Greg to the league, he is taking over Evil Knebel, which was left unmanaged since early April and still managed a middle of the pack finis, that team could be a lot better next year

Welcome Matt to the league, he is the new owner of Tweets, and he will be renaming his team
-
Just renewed my team for 2017. If you intend to keep playing in 2017, please renew as soon as you get the chance.
Enjoy the MLB playoffs -> lets hope everyone stays healthy.

look under available owners and email some of them, if you need help, add me as co-commissioner and i would be happy to help. I am pretty good at recruiting and screening for quality owners. My first year league i run, just had all 12 manager playing till the last day. The only guy leaving is/was a friend from the yahoo leagues i ran and he played with us for 10 years, he did not like the format here
-
"Curt Schillings Tweets" sent me a message to abandon his team. Does anybody know of a friend looking for a team, or should I hit the message boards?

Agree with everything Deal just said. Hopefully all of you can make it back next year, and be proactive in registration/fees.

Also, let the commissioner know, by posting here, if you know you are not returning next year. I have already filled an open spot in a league I run, and already gave up one of my teams for adoption with an owner i recruited. There are several managers currently looking for teams, these usually make great owners if they are looking for a team this late in the year.
-
I have a recommendation that we require all the owners to pay the league fee before the Jan 31 cut deadline. This will avoid the issues of trying to fill team last minute before and after the draft. Commissioner has the ability to see all teams and the ones who signed up and the deadline for renewing team. I would guess most of the teams renew very late. This would help the stability of the league and also make it easier to recruit.
-
Thanks guys, I enjoyed 2016 and look forward to 2017. I will be making plenty of changes in the offseason.
-
Congrats to Deal on the convincing championship. Can't wait to get the 2017 offseason underway
