🚨 Alert 🚨
Draft day 1pm Pacific TODAY

I feel like I jinxed Kelenic by my team name change...do you really trust spring training stats? I love baseball, but it can sure be a challenge to predict what is going to happen! Looking forward to the draft this weekend!

Agreed.

Agree. Before Opening Day, not a big deal. I like it. Our time between auction and OD is limited, too.

Before Opening Day, I don't see the downside I guess to allowing it. After Opening Day I think 48hrs is a reasonable amount of allotted time to resolve the roster issue. Maybe with the caveat that as long as they are working towards resolving the overage within that time, as trades can take a bit to get worked out especially with us being in several different time zones. Just a thought.
-
To follow that, during the season, I will try to follow-up with managers if their rosters or salary are over limit for more than 48 hours.

Hey all. Draft is in 11 days, and injury season has already arrived. We have not discussed this before, but I would like to get opinions from the league: we should have a generally agreed upon policy for how long teams are able to remaining over roster cap limit. I don't think it is a huge deal, but it will likely happen as managers wait for 60IL designations.
So, before Opening Day, (1) do we care; and (2) if so, how many over the limit is too many; and (3) how long over the limit

OK. Sounds like the 16th of March works. We are scheduled for 4PM. If this does not work, we can re-visit the scheduling. This is a much more friendly 10PM start time for our overseas league mate, which makes me happy.
Thank you everyone!

I would prefer either March 3rd or March 16th. 17th a no-go.

I can do the March 16th or 17th dates.

Either would work for me. I would not be able to move the time any earlier on those days.

Either March 16th or 17th will work for me.

So, final question before we settle on March 3 at 7PM EST:
Would either March 16 or 17 at 4PM or 5PM EST time work? This is earlier for our league-mate abroad. If the times just don't work, though, we will go with March 3.

We have one league member who is 6 hours ahead of EST. They have said that 7PM EST is the latest start time that works for them. Which is, in fairness, very late (1:00am). We have available draft days later in March, but so close to opening day that we would have 3-4 days of trade time before the season, which is not ideal.
So, yes, we can move that March 3 time to 7PM EST, but only if it is absolutely necessary.
I think that because so many prefer March, it is the be

I would much prefer the March date. Not a fun conversation asking the wife if we can move a valentine's date for a fantasy draft 😁
-
Could the March date be at 6pm EST? I could make that work. If not, I would have to be at least an hr late. I can make the Feb date work.

I can manage the February date if necessary, but MUCH prefer the March date.

Hi everyone. So I made a mistake when I sent the Google form, and forgot to ask for names. So I am unable to follow up individually. Apologies.
We have a problem with scheduling, and that problem is this: not a single day/time combo works for everyone. So far the best we get is weekends, mid-afternoon or early evening start time. But I know that does not work for two people.
I am proposing two dates:
(1) Saturday, February 17, 4PM EST
(2) Sunday, Ma

Hey guys, had my cuts set in Roster Organizer but somehow completely fumbled when it came to the deadline. Not sure how to proceed but I do intend to stay in league and will accept whatever you decide.
-
I am going to renew, but it will probably happen at the last minute. I am currently in Malaysia and Paydala does not work here, so I have to get someone in the US to do my renewals for me. Should be taken care of.

The prospects on my roster are all players I will not be cutting. Willing to move a few for MLB players before the deadline.

Reminder that the keeper deadline, and deadline to extend your franchise, are fast approaching! We are currently at ~50% for renewals. Hope everyone intends to stick around. But if not, please let me know before the keeper deadline.

Traditional auction it is.
Keeper deadline is 11 days aways. I would like to proceed with discussion on the auction date and time, but have not yet prepared a poll or questionnaire of any sort. I will get that out before this next week's end.
Thanks everyone.

I prefer traditional auction and doesn't necessarily matter to me early or late

My vote is definitely a traditional auction. Slow auctions really work best (and are most needed) for new leagues. Also agree with the vote for an earlier draft.

Ok. We are full and the keeper deadline approaches...let's talk auction schedule. Spring Training begins Feb 22, and the South Korea games kick off the season March 20. I prefer earlier auctions, but let's have some conversation. Also growing in popularity are the slow auctions, which we can discuss if people are interested.

Thanks for a good season, everyone! Lots of participation through the entire season.
As R.O.U.S. says, arb should begin in a couple weeks...last week it began Oct 15. We already had one owner decide not to return next season. I would prefer to have full participation in arb. If you know you won't return, and also do not want to complete arbitration, please let us know.
Also, if you know of anyone looking for a team, it would be great to have Sliders under new manageme
