Yep make sure to set those arbitration values folks. Sorry to have been mostly silent this last month or so. I have recently accepted a full-time analyst position in the Brewers R&D department so after arbitration here I am gonna surrender my team to someone else. Ben's Banter said his brother might be interested in taking over, and if the league was ok with that, that's an option.
-
Only a couple days left for ARB numbers fellas...
-
I'll be back. Congrats on another championship, Fran!
-
Phil and I held an executive conference and concluded we'd be back and better than ever next year.
-
Buoyed by our other than doormat finish, myself, my silk robes, and my kimonos, will be back for next season.
-
I will be back
-
I’ll be back :)
-
I will be back. Thanks.
-
Alright folks, with arbitration starting in about a weeks time, I just thought I'd mention that it would be a good idea to let me know if you will be returning to the league for next season. If you are not planning on playing again next season, the earlier you let me know the better, so we can find a replacement owner. Just send me a message on here in the next few days if you know whether or not you will be sticking around.
-
thanks folks. hope everyone enjoyed the season and a big thanks to those of you who kept a keen eye on MiLB debuts when things got busy for me.
-
Congrats Steely Fran! Great season.
-
You da man, Steely Fran! Congratulations! And good luck to the Brew Crew in the playoffs!!!!!
-
And the three-peat validates the name change! An Ottoneu dynasty! Great season.

Congrats on the win Steely Fran! I'm coming for you next year!
-
oneil cruz has been added to my roster after his debut yesterday.
-
Debut - Oneil Cruz
-
baz has been added to BALCO's roster.
-
New debut Baz
-
Did anyone enter OPL this year?
-
I appreciate the head up, Dawgs. Both players have been added to their respective teams.
-
Maybe Josh Lowe too.
-
Joe Ryan has made his MLB debut.
-
I gotta tell you guys, the race for 6th place is lit!
-
Well, in baseball you are supposed to hit the cutoff man, so maybe old Otto Neu just cutoff anything following a quotation mark in his short career. It also explains why my attempt at a clever response didn't work all that well either....
-
It looks like Ottoneu cut off my dumb joke when I tried to include quotation marks. The trade note was supposed to say that the Platonists ask What is Wisdom? but I ask Is Wisdom available?

After debuting yesterday, cabrera has been added to Dawgs' roster.
-
Thanks. Just wanted to check.
-
Yeah our rules state players get added only after they actually debut. This seems to be the fairest thing to do since 1). not every prospect gets such advance announcement of their callup and 2). it's a lot of work for the commissioner to make sure every player is added before their debut. I wouldn't want to end up with only being able to add 80% of players before their debut over the course of a season since it negatively impacts those teams that miss their debuts.
-
Edward Cabrera is expected to start Wednesday. Does he actually have to play before he is added to my roster? Thanks.
-
Thanks! Now I actually have a healthy 5th outfielder!
-
Jarren Duran debuted on the 17th and has correspondingly been added to Squirrels roster. (Sorry for the delay).
-
Thanks for catching that! I was out last couple of days, would have been sad to come back to someone else trading away my prospect!
-
Looks like the trade should be fully undone. I moved the players back to their original team and Niv handled to loan as far as i can tell. Let me know if anyone does not have access to the MiLB spreadsheet so I can give it to you.
-
I am going to undo this trade but I need to message Niv to see if there's a way for me to remove the loan part of this deal.
-
If this is indeed correct that pending trade will need to be nixed
-
Hey folks. I have Mauricio on Flying Squirrels MiLB roster in my version of the spreadsheet. Is that what folks also see? I have Squirrels acquiring Mauricio on 3-18.
-
Enjoy the days off all. Happy Dissection of the draftees!!
-
Man, I just read the article in The Athletic. It’s horrific.
-
Ok… seeing the news about Bauer now… I wouldn’t fault anyone for not being eager to trade for him. Statement still stands that I’m open for talks on my roster

Potentially looking to move a few big names over the next month: Torres, Rendon, Bauer, maybe others. Look over my roster and let me know if you're interested in talking.

I am now at 11 guys on the 60 day IL and 13 total on the IL
-
Anybody interested in Montas or Paddack? Just throwing it out there :)
-
I now have 9 guys on the 60 day IL... I feel like that has to be close to a record. I am still one short of Soler's total of 13 though.
-
Odd coincidence, I once again heard an EWF debut on radio, this time with Manoah pitching in Game One vs the Yankees yesterday. I listened to the NYY radio stream and they were gushing over how poised he was, giving up 2 hits in 6 innings for the win. They also gushed over the 40+ family and friends who attended. Welcome to the show.
-
added to balco's roster
-
Damn, super bummed I dropped Manoah before the draft. Let’s hope Veen pays off…in 2-3 years lol.
-
Manoah debut
-
13 might be the most i’ve ever seen, ive hovered around 5-7 basically all year. btw folks my weeks are quite busy with the brewers so its way more likely now that i will miss some MiLB debuts. keep an eye out and let me know if i miss any!
-
Is there any way we can pause the season for a few weeks? I have 13 guys on the IL and my insurmountable lead in the league is now very surmountable.
-
Nick Gordon debuted for Minnesota yesterday and has correspondingly been added to Phil Roof All Star's roster.
