And we're full!
-
Hit It Here now has an owner. Only one more team to fill.
-
Whoo-hoo, best of luck to Milk & Cheese. At least you have a healthy warchest and should have fun building a team.
-
Good news! We've got a replacement for Milk and Cheese. Glad to have you aboard!
-
I am looking to trade 1 or 2 SP's, check my Trading Block boys
-
Nightman Cometh's trading block has been updated!
-
i had a brief rise in the standings, based on too much pitching. It was fun while it lasted.
-
I'd say this league is heating up rather nicely
-
good golly Nightman. big day for you!
-
wildcats's trading block has been updated!
-
lol
-
Bad Idea: drafting Rolen as injury protection for Zimmerman.
-
never mine "home run regression" My position players went 0/29 today!
-
Wow. So much for my gb pitching staff. HR regression is a bitch.
-
Nightman Cometh's trading block has been updated!
-
i.m in 6th place! I can't believe it.
-
ah it's no big deal. things happen, i could have tried to set it earlier today.
-
Email help@ottoneu.com with the changes. Maybe they could retroactively adjust your lineup.
-
yeah, it just cost me a start
-
is any body else having trouble seting a line up ? get message "doesn't exist", then the screen goes blank.
-
One of my buddies in my platoon has a second-grade crayon signature of Bobby Borchering (Arizona 1B prospect)
-
I should nominate my MLB namesake; Matt Brown. Last I knew he was in the Angels system.
-
If for some weird reason you outbid me on Louis Coleman, know that you will be keeping me from being able to tell my mom that I own a kid she taught in grade school.
-
The Unfortunate Cubs Fan's trading block has been updated!
-
Yeah, no way the actual Jesus Montero would get dropped. Kind of like drafting Mike Stanton, and then finding out he's the 40-something LOOGY.
-
i hear Jesus Montero is tearin up A ball for the Cards...
-
But the Jesus Montero you picked up isn't the one who plays for the Yankees!
-
The Cubs fan cut Montero, as he thought he could never play for the Yankees. Now that Mauer is hurt, and vis-a -vie Hughes is on the DL, what a trade - Liriano for Montero. "
-
I am still grasping this OttoNeu format.
-
I concur with Burninators; if there is no collusion then a trade should be allowed if both owners truly want it made. My first reaction to the trade was due to my perception of Fantasy Leagues all being like the basic ESPN and Yahoo ones.
-
I think the trade makes perfect sense for both teams. If enough of you guys want to veto, that's fine, email me, but I personally don't see any problem with the trade. I really do not like vetoes unless there is obvious collusion, and I see no collusion.
-
so here's a breakdown of my thought process. I move the biggest contract to buy bats in the offseason, gain a top prospect (idc about ETA) and maybe, maybe, bid for han ram again this offseason
-
why would i not make that trade? the salary is a wash, considering there is no way i can win this year. I did shop Hanley around for a good two weeks to managers who would make an even deal, but it wasn't happening
-
Got the message and replied, way too long to post here. I do want to repeat that I have no problem with the trade and will not vote against it myself. Since the three teams are non-entities, they should have no effect on us.
-
(I've sent you a message over ottoneu, but it removed all the paragraphs. It's probably best just to use email.)
-
I don't think it's fair to assume anything about how the missing managers would've voted, especially when the set of rules we all agreed to define abstention as a 'yes' vote.
-
What definition of artificial are you using here? I didn't have an opinion on the Napoli/Suzuki trade, and my abstention favored the trade passage. If I don't check ottoneu for 48 hours, the same rule is applied.
-
i'm thinking that it is probably best to verify that the missing owners didn't cause the trade to pass artificially.
-
READ THIS: email me in the next 48 hours if you want to vote against the trade. If a majority of the active managers want it veto'd, ottoneu will facilitate.
-
ottoneu will give away the teams if we find replacements. They'll look for replacements as well, but if you know anyone, let's get them in!
-
I emailed them, will let you know what I hear back. If you want, I can write a trade veto tool for us, if we can't do anything about the dead teams. I can manually undo trades if a veto passes.
-
Either way, I agree that the three empty spots do mess with the veto dynamics. Trip, any response from Ottoneu on this? Maybe they could offer a free year to someone picking up a team mid-stream.
-
I was a little surprised that Cubs Fan didn't shop Hanley around a little bit, but it's not like Hanley has had a great start and maybe he was worried that an extended slump would depress his value.
-
And Baseball America has Machado's ETA as 2013. If you look at what most SS went for this year, locking down a high ceiling SS w/ a low salary is a decent move.
-
Cub Fan's building for the future, so extra salary this year doesn't mean anything to him.
-
i just didn't understand why you would make that trade Cub's Fan...? Machado for Hanley? without receving cash even? Machado is 3 years away at best.
-
I third this sentiment. Would we have needed 7 votes to veto even though three aren't present? Therefore 7/9 would have needed to?
-
i agree with Expos, it was just plain ridiculous.
-
the majority of owners didnt think so
-
The Hanley Trade was Absurd.
