Hasn't been around for a couple of weeks. Did he pay for the season?

Anyone heard from NY Debt$? He was active until recently but didn’t make any cuts. I’m assuming he’ll need to be replaced.

Just a reminder that this is the last day to make penalty-free cuts for both your 40-man and 5MiLB rosters (except for Vegas Baby, who will be able to make cuts once we find a new owner).

I am going to cut Ramon Laureano and Michael Gettys from my 5MiLB roster
-
Vegas Baby - no problem, I'm looking for a new owner on slack. Please don't cut anyone; whoever takes over for you will have penalty-free cuts.

Commissioner has the power to allow a team penalty free cuts
-
I'll hold on to all the players on the roster. I can field trade offers, and will only take trades that would be no-brainers. I just don't want to do anything that would either hamstring the new owner or make the league mad.

Someone else will have to confirm but if memory serves, a new owner would have a chance to cut whoever they wanted free of charge when they take over - even after the keeper deadline.

i also know I would not be able to do the draft on 3/10. basically i just want to make it a smooth transfer to a new owner in a way that doesn't make anybody mad.

guys, I reached out to the commissioners asking if they can replace me as owner. I am not good enough at this game to compete in a league like this - I can tell I'm over my head. I don't want to let the cut deadline go by without cutting players - it seems unfair to everyone to do that. But I don't want to cut players the next owner might want. I can do my best until you abandon me if you want. let me know what is best and i'll try to do right by the league and next owner.

March 10th is good.

March 10 is ok for me but after 8:30pm (est) would be preferable

The 10th works fine with me.

The 10th would work for me as well
-
If you want a march date - how about the 10th?
-
re: draft, I can make most times work, but prefer a night (est) slot.
Trades!: J. Upton, A. Toles, Neshek, Manaea, Madson, Swarzak, Barraclough all available
-
Other than 3/3, any day after like 7pm CST will work for me
-
Then propose something that will work for you, please.

That would work for me.

Schedules:
For the main auction, how about Sunday, March 4th, 8:00EST?
For 5MiLB, how about we start a slow draft on Saturday, February 10th? This will allow for a week to review/research after the cut deadline. Like last year, whoever's on the clock gets up to 12 hours to make their pick. With so many 5MiLB keepers the whole draft should only take a couple days.

Well, I'm going to go ahead and cut Braxton Garrett and Bobby Dalbec from my MiLB roster.
-
I'll volunteer to yell at you if you pick someone who isn't eligible ;)
-
creating a comprehensive list of who is/isn't eligible is a pretty massive undertaking, one that I don't think I'm up for. I think what worked well during the slow 5MiLB draft last year is just some group oversight of each pick. Realistically, most of the low-hanging fruit got picked in last years's draft and there probably aren't going to be many top 50 prospects available this year. And part of the fun of this, I think, is doing a deep dive on rosters to see who's been missed...

Thanks for the clarification. Can you post a link to the MiLB rosters? It would be greatly appreciated. Also, just a thought...but we should try to get something to show what MiLB players are unavailable for the draft because they were on someone's team during the regular season.
-
WB4: no - "5MiLB keepers will be kept in the latest possible round, which means each team that keeps < five 5MiLB players prior to the 5MiLB draft will receive a 1st round pick." So if you keep 3 players, you would receive a 1st and 2nd round pick this year (but not 3rd/4th/5th).

Pinkerton also brought up a good point: one way to clear space for this year's 5MiLB is to promote players to the 40 man roster now. You don’t HAVE to wait until the player is actually in the majors, you can call up any 5MiLB player at any time. The downside is that once he’s on your 40-man, you can’t later demote him, even if he hasn’t made it to MLB. Pinkerton is promoting Acuna now to clear up a draft spot, because it seems certain he’d have to promote him this spring anyway.

I’ve updated the 5MiLB sheet to reflect Acuna’s promotion (to Pinkerton), Perez & Newman’s removal (from Prepare Yoenis and Homestead Grays respectively). I’ve also shuffled the rows to reflect who would get picks in each round if the 5MiLB rosters were finalized today – note that as of right now, 7 teams would not get ANY picks.

March 3rd, probably not gonna work for me. I have dinner plans that night with the girlfriend and her family. Also, just making sure I understand correctly, if I keep my first 3 picks from last year, and cut my 4th and 5th round picks, I don't pick til the 4th?

I will cut Delvin Perez

I will cut MiLB5 Kevin Newman :'(

2. Like last year, I'm proposing we hold a 5MiLB "slow draft" starting on or about February 1st.

3. I think we can only hold the 5MiLB draft before the regular auction if everyone's on the same page regarding the rules. Please take a moment to reacquaint yourself (link below). I added a "Shohei Otani rule" to the charter earlier this offseason, but there's also a few weird cases like Miles Mikolas (who should clearly be excluded but may cause confusion).
