I did the form. I am unfortunately definitely out March 9 & 10. There's a fair chance that I will also be away March 16 & 17, depending on if my kid advances to "zones" in her sport for that weekend (~5 hrs away), so I left that unavailable. I won't know that until Feb 24-25. Sorry, wish I had more availability and certainty, especially as the new guy.

If we want to try a live draft, I put an availability poll together: https://www.when2meet.com/?23559591-foUdq

Welcome to the league.

Welcome to the league! Great group of guys here...

Thanks. Team name rebrand is coming. Hired a consultant to do market analysis, and now focusing-grouping some options. Software let me make a round of cuts. Done! Feeling lean and mean.

You certainly can make a free round of cuts - Just send me a message and I'll put them through for you (and welcome!!)
-
Welcome to the league! Are you planning a rebrand of our dearly departed Lt Columbo's team or did we by some twist of fate attract another fan of the 70s crime drama? (And yes you'll get a round of cuts)
-
Hi everyone. I'm taking over Columbos. Looking forward to playing! I think I get a free round of cuts(?), which will be coming soon. Byron Buxton and Brandon Woodruff incoming.......

Additional friendly reminder that today is the Keeper Deadline!!
-
Friendly reminder to renew your teams, if you haven't, yet!!
-
(The draft day update is not real.)
-
(Otherwise I'll mark the team abandoned and open it up to the public for a new owner later this week.)
-
Early Happy New Year, everyone! Just a reminder: we'll need a new owner for the Columbos next season, if any of you have friends or kin interested in picking up a team.

Another league I am in is looking for 2 managers. League name is Major League Baseball. League id is 1130. The teams available are Replacement Level and Never Gunnar Give You Up.

I will be back.

A belated congrats to the Vlads! And a reminder that Arbitration has begun - and to let me know if you'll be returning for next year! I think we'll need a replacement team for the Columbos... :(

Great season guys!

Wooo! I spent early September writing me off and on based on the daily results. What a thrill! Congrats to the Beets and the Thumbs too. I haven't seen a three horses race go that far in ottoneu. Now it's playoffs baseball!
-
Congratulations, Ain’t Half Vlad! 🎉
-
Congrats on the win Vlad, well done. Thanks to the Commish for running the show again.
-
Huge win! I'll take some credit and also apologize to the league for what turned out to be an awful trade! McClanahan and Severino, neither of which I'll hold on to for Freddie Freeman. Oof!
And congrats!

Congrats, Vlad! Not too long ago, I’d written you off. Nice come-from-behind win!

A couple of teams out there might be a pitcher or two short of a valid roster, as provided under:

Live by Joe Ryan, die by Joe Ryan. :-(
-
30 days and 10 p/ip later, I think I'll keep Graveman for $4. Ha
-
You mean you DIDN’T want to pay $7 for a reliever with under 4 P/IP? I don’t buy it…

I 100% thought I put a waiver claim on Tim Anderson not Graveman. Hahaha. Oh well!

I am looking forward to a Houston repeat!

Everything on my end looks great, except I thought I got Mike Trout for 3 bucks. Lol!

Rosters should be unlocked now, but make sure to message me with any discrepancies. Sometimes the player names get mixed up between services (Daniel Espino vs. Daniel Espinoza, for example), and you might even end up with extra players.
-
Thanks Commish. The rosters still show locked.

The draft is complete. I imported rosters - there were 3 import errors that I'll fix manually. Let me know if any prices or players are amiss!
-
The draft has begun!!

I'm in, sorry!

Hoping to start it this Saturday at noon ET if we can get everyone to join in time!

Do we know what day the draft starts?

Here's the link to the draft:
https://www.couchmanagers.com/auctions/index.php?auction_id=511
The password is "772draft"
As people join over the course of the week I'll upload rosters. I know there were varying opinions on how long the auction length / extension should be: we'll hammer that out over the course of the week.
-
Alright folks, no time really worked for everyone, so we'll do a slow draft. They take a little time to run, so I figure I'll start it next Saturday at noon Eastern. I'll set everything up tomorrow and send out links and info.
-
I think my preference would be a slow draft as opposed to a weekday draft.

Hi again everyone! A couple people reached out with zero weekend availability, unfortunately. I put a second poll together to see if we might be able to swing a weeknight evening. The times on the poll are Eastern Time, so I figure the only possibility that will work out will be around 830 Eastern, considering our west coast folks. It'd be late but I'd be willing. If this doesn't pan out, we'll do a slow draft again.

I think we should try to do a live draft this year, if we can. Here's attempt #1 at a poll:
https://www.when2meet.com/?18823751-bcIIT
I thought I'd start with weekends, and put a range of times with the understanding that we'd want to finish any draft we have by about 10 PM ET. (And I didn't go to early because we have quite a few folks on the west coast.)
-
Reminder to make cuts! Today is the last day.

Welcome Rake!

(Of course, it goes without saying: the team cannot be claimed not by anyone already in this league, lest we have a Yankees-Kansas City A's-in-the-1950's situation. But we should be welcoming a new league member shortly.)
-
Seatown has been abandoned and may be claimed!
-
Don't forget to renew your subscriptions, everyone! Also, absent objection, I'm going to designate Seatown's team as abandoned. He hasn't been active since June. Depending on who takes over and when, this could mean that more players enter the FA pool after the keeper deadline (which could affect how you all decide to budget).
