First off I really appreciate and enjoy playing in this active and competitive league. IMO I dont see any issues with that deal. One team wants to win right now and is mortgaging the future to do so. Polanco and Olson are probably keepable but the rest are rentals. There is alot of young MLB ready assets that moved to the rebuilding team. There is a chance more than half are kept at seasons end.
This is going to be a digfight for the next few months. Lets Go!!!!
-
Sure is a blockbuster of a trade, but if you look at it closely, IMO only 4-5 players from the whole bunch are very attractive, he's getting Springer, Olson, Gray and Polanco in returm, the other guys are a flip of the coin, so I'm cool with it, but it's big alright, on one side it's 25% of the roster
-
Hate to be that person but the latest trade between afternoon delights and madmen and misfits is really lopsided. Do with that what you will but if any of those players were shopped a much larger return could have been had. Thanks

I’m looking to move a few of my higher priced bats. Would prefer SP in return but would also consider lower cost bats & prospects.
-
Taking offers on Trout. Looking for top prospects or younger high end players.

Happy Opening Day!! Let the season begin!

No strong feelings, but my schedule only gets busier as the spring moves along, so I would lean toward keeping it as well.
-
Keep the date
-
I am easy peasy. Either is fine with me.
-
Still waiting for a few owners to voice their opinions, but as it looks now the majority of votes are for keeping the aucrion on the 13th. Will keep everyone updated. I will give everyone who hasnt voted until Sunday.

I'm with Wonderdogs. As a team with a lot of cash to spend, I would like to have at least some info re injuries, team changes, etc. before heading into the draft. That said, I'll be there on the 13th if that's how the vote plays out.
-
I vote to keep it March 13
-
Just noticed I'm at 40 roster wise so no draft for me anyway....sniff sniff
-
I say keep it as it is, we are all in the same boat for the FA
-
I don't think you're missing anything and I think your points are valid. Only a couple teams responded so I'd be interested in hearing more opinions. For me personally there are a couple reasons. First the ottoneu auction availability. As far as baseball, I'm confident we will have a season. As far as free agents I think most teams in this league are built already which makes unsigned players less risky. I of course could be way wrong but just my opinion on things.

It may result in some players ultimately being more or less valuable than their auction salary, but I agree that it's mostly even amongst teams (though an argument can be made that teams that have more open roster slots are at a disadvantage in a draft with minimal info.). I'm fine to postpone it and can be flexible on a time, but am willing to stick to the original date/time if that's the consensus.
-
I feel that the competitive disadvantage of not knowing where a handful of players may go is equal to every team manager. Nobody gains an advantage either way by drafting on our current date.
-
Outside of time slot availability, I'm curious why the preference to draft when we don't know a bunch of free agency outcomes or when/if the season starts? Ultimately I'm fine either way but I'm wondering if there's something I'm missing...
-
I also prefer to keep it as is
-
I vote for keeping the draft date on the 13th.
-
I will be more than happy to hear what all owners think. If there is a majority of teams in agreement then we can discuss moving draft date. Personally I'm fine doing it on the 13th. Another thing we need to keep in mind is time slots for drafting. Ottoneu auction dates and times fill up quickly and I would hate having to do a spreadsheet just to figure out who can attend auction, when they can auction, what time to auction, and if auction slot is actually available. Let me know your thoughts.

I think we should push the draft date. No sense in drafting until we know the status of the season.
-
I don’t know how the league would feel about the commish pushing the trades through as we have two new owners and rosters lock in 2 days. I don’t see anything getting vetoed but don’t mean to be pushy.

Welcome to both new owners. Good luck.

Welcome to the new owner of Brawlers. Glad to have you.

You are correct. The system will abandon team and it will be filled prior to draft.

Barrel Strength Bourbon has not logged in since September. Does something need to be done to see if he is returning?
-
Hey everyone, hope all is well.
I wanted to see if we could move draft day to 3/13 at the same time. We have a small conflict for one of our owners and since everything else got pushed 2 weeks out i figured id see of we cant push the draft out another week.
Please let me know if 3/13 8 pm EST works or if youd rather keep date we already have.

Last day for arbitration allocations. One team left to nominate. Also if youd like to change any allocations today is the day. Trading should open up tomorrow for the winter meetings.

I just wanted to send out a reminder that this is the last weekend of arbitration. Only a few teams left to allocate. I know some teams like to do on last day but figured I'd send this out as life gets busy and i dont want anyone to forget.

I'm exploring some trade options on guys like Betts, Goldschmidt & Hader. Feel free to send offers. Not looking for anything in particular, just looking to make some moves.

If anyone is tight on cap and looking to trade any SP, let me know...I have some depth on the offense side I’d be willing to move.
