Gentlemen, Fosten and I would like to hear from you regarding potential auction dates. As we have in the past, we conduct our auction on a weeknight starting at 5pm Pacific Time. I would like to propose Wednesday March 22. Yes, that is the beginning of Ramadan, I hope that does not pose a problem for any of you. What say the lot of ya?

Not trying to spam the message board, but this feels like it'll interest most of you all. I'd like to move Corbin Burnes before the draft, but only for a player (or a few players) that fit in these specific categories: 1) young, 2) an outfielder or 1B, 3) costs less than $20. Do your worst!

To be fair, you have 3 MVP candidates on your roster plus Vlad Jr. and Aaron Nola. The question should be: why eighth? ;)

Hmm... arbitration results -
Foot - First place, most arbitration dollars
Mudville - Second place, tied for second most arbitration dollars
Port Rupert - Third place, tied for second most arbitration dollars
Seattle Zen - Eighth place, fourth most arbitration dollars :( WTF?

Wow, that was as close as it could get! Amazing! I was enjoying my own little battle with Seattle for 7th place. He took a big league on the second-to last day, but I was surprised to see two of my starters get starts on the last day despite them going to the playoffs, and I inched ahead. My hitting was a shambles this year and I had no money to fix it. I'll definitely be looking to reload on that side.

Congrats Foot! I still have no idea what i'm doing, but feel pleased with how i finished. i don't even know that i've gone through the arbitration process, so if someone wants to smarten me up, feel free to shoot an email over!
-
heck of a season, gang. Watching the jockeying at the top of the leaderboard was something to behold. I could have been up with them if I had managed my roster better - I left lots of games unplayed and didn't realize I couldn't catch up until it was too late. Looking forward to arbitration and running it back again next season with this group!
-
Congratulations to five time defending champion Foot! 🎉🍾 Was that our first real close finish? That 162 game limit did Mud in, seeing over 40 points stuck on the bench, you must have pulled your hair out.
Arbitration starts on the 15th. Don’t be a Munson, fill out your arbitration before the deadline passes.

Congrats to Foot and to dave for an entertaining finish. I burned thru my allowable innings pitched early so it was just a matter of time before I fell back. Hope everyone has a great off season.

Thanks Mudville…crazy, nerve wracking finish. I feel very lucky to come out on top.

Congratulations Foot! Seems like it was back and forth for the last month of the season. Mudville just didn't have enough in the tank at the end. Fabulous race!

Look at that!!! Mudville and Foot neck and neck just inches from the finish line! Where did Taxman go? Best of luck to our annual medalists. Can Mud keep Foot 🦶🏽 from getting one for the thumb? Or is it big toe? 💍 🏆

Reid Detmers threw a no-hitter on my bench last night lol. For the record, he was there due to my own stupidity, not negligence, as I opted not to start him against a decent Rays lineup. Related, but getting "only" 67 points for a no-hitter is pretty hilarious, but that's what happens when only two of the 27 outs are via K.

well, crap. what a lame as rule. wish i'd have known about it.
-
Yep, it's a thing: Rule 1(f)(v): All pitchers can be placed in either SP or RP positions on the lineup and roster organizer pages. However they will only accrue statistics if you use them in the same manner as their MLB team.

CRISTIAN JAVIER points? I didn't get credit for his points yesterday. The only thing I can think of is that there is a rule i was unaware of that he only gets SP points if he's slotted as an RP? IS that a thing??
-
Me joining this league has clearly caused copious chaos.
-
I am as surprised as is SZ that this season all sides other than mine have have raced to the bottom of the standings. Give me time, I'm sure that I can again lead the rush to mediocracy.

I'm blaming it on user error, though I swear I clicked that "make a claim" box.

The computer 💻 probably assumed Taxman was in last or looked at the standings and didn’t believe it. “That can’t be right”.

"When a player is dropped, other team managers have 24 hours to claim him on waivers for 100% of his salary, with the team lowest in the standings getting priority."
Only thing I can think of is you thought you put in a claim but didn't get the mechanics of it quite right (there is a box that has to be checked)
-
that's strange, I put in a waiver claim for Jeimer Candelario and thought it went to the team lowest in the standings, but Taxman (in first place) got him. Or do I misunderstand the process?
-
Three weeks ago I left the draft with 18 MLB pitchers. I now don't have enough to fill an active lineup. I hate pitchers.

Season is off and runnin! Looking forward to matching wits with you all this year, this is my favorite format of fantasy baseball out there.
As an aside, anyone heard from Munson? Looks like he hasn’t set his lineup these last few days, which is out of character from our fearless leader.
-
Thank you, Foot, for reminding all of us to line up tonight for our annual spanking. :) It would really pain me if any of us did not show up tonight. It's been a crazy few weeks, Foot, Munson, and myself have been participating in two simultaneous slow drafts which I find taxing on my brain. I am also introducing a new girlfriend to my fantasy baseball habit and am now realizing that she is the fifth gf I've put through this in recent years! Flying by the seat of my pants. SZ

Do we have a Discord server or anything for league wide chat, or are we committed to using a message board only?

Kevin, I thought you would be ecstatic that you now have the opportunity to bid on Yimi Garcia on the 30th when before it looked like you would be denied!

this round of cuts should have happened BEFORE these free agent signings
-
Appreciate the understanding, folks. Apologies for the disruption. With so much uncertainty during the lockout, I do think flexibility makes sense this year. SZ and I have opened up penalty-free cuts set to expire 3/23/22 with the draft on 3/30/22 and the season starting 4/7/22. With a furry of free agent signings and spring training activity, sincerely hope this round of penalty-free cuts can be beneficial for all. Thanks again.
-
What did we ever decide on here? It looks like the votes were 7-3 for the free cut, but rosters are still locked. Do we need to do something to make it happen or is it still under discussion?
-
I usually try and give the benefit of the doubt...but this is the second time he missed a deadline (2021 Arbitration...as a result $33 less allocated dollars across the board). If this was a more cutthroat league like G20, I'd say a penalty is warranted. That said, I like the fact that this league is more draft and hold than having to mine rosters/free agents daily. I'm willing to give Fosten a pass in the interest of sheer competitiveness to the other 11 teams, myself included.

speaking as the new guy here...there's a lot to be said for these deadlines and their importance. those of us who made the deadline, at this point, are at a disadvantage. if you're going to move the deadline, perhaps every team that cut a player should have dibs on that player if their situation changed re the "new" deadline.
-
I'll be that guy and oppose the proposed free cut. The keeper deadline had already been extended, making cuts well ahead of spring training is part of the challenge of this particular format (and hiding your cuts as long as possible is also a strategic move), and this is a significant financial and roster windfall to anyone who didn't make all their cuts by the deadline. But imaginary baseball is hardly important stuff, so I don't really care.
-
Yes to free cut

I'm good with a free cut stage as well.

I’m fine with another free cut stage, as much as I enjoy the hilarity of the co-Commish missing his deadline after reminding me I missed the payment deadline >:)

Fine with me.

Considering I didn't realize that I had already missed the roster cut deadline, I'm 100% on board with a penalty-free cut at some point in the future as we (hopefully) get closer to real-life baseball.
