McGibb is a lost cause. He is too busy crocheting during baseball season. He doesn’t have time for offers.
-
U guys know who also has a problem with trades behind closed doors.........One McGibb reports have it that he just escaped a trade rehab facility wearing a shirt with the word "enter" on it. Help the man if u see him.....
-
That article was really annoying. Using his forum to complain that he was barred from the discussion because he lowballed a league mate seems like an abuse of power. Kind of dilutes fangraphs actually.
-
LOL, yep. I particularly like the (I'm paraphrasing) "I'm in 17 leagues and don't have time to check leagues' trading blocks, but be sure to check with me before you do any trades to see if I might be interested in your players." Some of his stuff is good, some is not. Today's post was the latter, IMHO.

Brad is....um...an acquired taste

Nope, I'm an exhibitionist. You're all just going to have to get used to looking at it.
-
Hey, be sure that I get to see what you're offering first and have a chance to beat it before you complete any trades! LOL. For those who missed it: https://www.fangraphs.com/fantasy/hey-shop-your-trades/

You two get a room 😁

Hey. Sorry, missed your response and offer. I'm interested. Not sure who I like better. Would you do either?
-
How is my deal looking HC?
-
Sevvy is on Zod for 5 years. He just signed a big contract.
-
Salvy for sevvy!!!
-
I own way to many shares of Severino so he better get that shoulder look at. Did any Sp throw in the off season? I don't think Charles Radbourn had these injuries.

He has to stay healthy. Just taking a shot with him to see if he can produce. 70 power is hard to find.
-
Damn I missed that Soler waiver. Nice find zod!
-
In the case of emergency tho I would like to have something in place. All this stuff is only meant for review at this time. Any parts that don't get 12 votes will not even be considered in the off season. HC sent me a constitution to review and LG has his own (Very good one) in a different league. Open to all ideas and information anyone has. Hope to start the web page soon. Just something to review before I make my 2019 run at the title.
-
I am going over some league constitutions. I am going to try and take the best parts of each constitution and send it to you guys for review. This will just be for informational purposes only to run some ideas past everyone to see what they think. I would like to get in writing something for any new owners to agree to before they sign up to avoid another Altuve situation. This is a good league with 12 great owners and I expect everyone to be here a long time.

WS 2020 has put a nice spin on the league.

Wondering if I should offer WS2020 Jansen for Posey to keep him away from HBC...
-
The over/under on Posey is 9.5 Hr. Crazy!

Panic mode! Scherzer for Posey!

Dee under channel Trey has like 6 threads. If u cant get in let me know u might need permission to access his channel. I will get it for u.
-
Dee here is the tread: https://ottoneu.slack.com/messages/C038NMRBB/details/
-
Do you know the channel number for that main slack ottoneu ? I’m just starting to learn on how to use slack.
-
I created a Slack Channel for the league it is "ottoneu979". I sent invites out to everyone via email. I am just setting this up just as a place we can all use for any possible league additions u guys may want in the future. Ottoneu and FanGraphs writer "Trey in ottoneu" has the ottoneu channel. It has trade discussions channel, owners wanted channel, etc. It is the main slack channel for ottoneu. Anyone with any questions let me know.
-
He did this while adding cap space, which protects him in case of a Scherzer injury. Honestly...Kudo's HC.

If Eloy has a year he can quickly lose his value in arbitration. With a decent year, I imagine a minimum valuation in the lower 30's. Juan Soto who is already in the big leagues, a proven producer, younger, can provide steals, and has more pop was valued at $37 by Fan Graphs. This is why HC's trade, for me, was a slam dunk. Barring injury, he at least added, at a minimum, 10 wins, 200ks, 3.00 ERA, and 1.1 WHIP (These are very low projections).

Let's look at Eloy though. Fan Graphs has him rated as worth $23.90, so getting him at $16 is definitely decent value according to Fan Graphs. Fan Graphs also rates Haniger at $20.10 Haniger's 2018 numbers was 90 Runs, 26HR's, and 93 RBI's, 0.285 batting avg. Can Eloy hit those numbers on that White Sox team, probably not. Eloy is younger and therefore worth more for shear potential. Regardless this is a lost year for WS2020, and he would be better off with Eloy being mediocre.

The misconception of the twitter poll is that people are mad, I don't think anyone is mad. I am certainly not. I just thought the trade would lead to an interesting discussion on the loan system, which WF hit right on the head. I am definitely curious how the poll pans out (I don't have Twitter, so someone let me know.)

I put out the Scherzer/Eloy debate on my discord channel for my dynasty league. Brad Johnson from fangraphs is the commish. He posted a poll about it on Twitter because we couldn’t decide which side won 😁

In first year leagues, Eloy is going for $22 on average. And $37 his max. Vlad for $35 average. I think I'm not alone in the belief that Eloy may be as good as vlad for 5×5. And will likely be up sooner. Is he going to produce $32? Probably not this year. But this is a dynasty league. Next year, WS2020 could have a $40, player at a $16 salary pre arb.
-
If a team feels a trade is imbalanced for whatever reason, whether it be the loan or the imbalance of players then they have every right to veto. And wacha I love your idea, just not sure how it can be implemented...HC, you're not seriously saying Eloy is worth $32. 😂

Just to set a baseline, there have been teams in Ottoneu that have accumulated $500+ salaries via loans and neither HBC or I are near that territory. Now there are Ottoneu leagues that limit or even prohibit loans. I'm agnostic on whether that limitation/prohibition is a good thing, but it's a conversation worth having in the off-season. In the interim, there's a trade veto system. There was no collusion involved by anyone, so I don't think anything merits a veto.
