Laika Community Moderator Posted May 31, 2014 Author Posted May 31, 2014 Stro' my god! Marcus is OTB. Serious offers only.
Fearthedoc Verified Member Posted June 1, 2014 Posted June 1, 2014 Haha, you f***er, I was seriously considering Volquez if that was processed in time. e: Nm, other one went through, I hope he burns you bad! ,,l,, I strictly targeted him because he pitches at 8, so I have the luxury of seeing how ERA shapes up. I refuse to let you pummel me this bad!
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted June 1, 2014 Posted June 1, 2014 f*** JBJ just killed himself. FU NJH for selling me damaged goods!
jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted June 1, 2014 Posted June 1, 2014 I've never experienced having a team with this many players banged up or on the DL. It's absurd. Just when I thought I was able to start fielding a full outfield after acquiring Brown, I lose Myers to the DL and Maybin left yesterday's game in the 2nd, ugh. And Tex's wrist is acting up again. This year has been a total disaster. Even Brown is sitting today because Niese is pitching. Likely won't be starting an outfield today lol

Likely won't be starting an outfield today lol I've got more OF'er to trade if you want one Stubbs, Cain are available (so is Gose, but I'm sure he's not that attractive). On the plus side, you know what I want

On the plus side, you know what I want You should drop Gose, he wasn't part of the trade. Violation on your part. lol jks I like Cain to an extent, but I don't think I'll be making the playoffs anyway unless a miracle happens.
z3r0s Old-Timey Member Posted June 1, 2014 Posted June 1, 2014 Anyone want to take a shot at Matt Davidson? I don't think he's going to make it past the prospect cut-off date.
jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted June 1, 2014 Posted June 1, 2014 On the bright side, Maybin's trash anyway? Post-hype player. He's been alright - not getting any HR's, RBI's or SB's however. His slash line of .303/.333/.449 is decent, though he needs to steal more bases to be valuable. Also, the guy is probably the most fragile player I've ever seen. Seems like he gets injured almost all the time.
jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted June 1, 2014 Posted June 1, 2014 I'm hoping Grant Green gets more playing time with the Angels - he's been solid. Love the fact that he holds eligibility at 2B and OF.
Laika Community Moderator Posted June 1, 2014 Author Posted June 1, 2014 GP has cut Cody Buckel, Roman Quinn, and Brandon Maurer from his farm.
NorthOf49 Old-Timey Member Posted June 1, 2014 Posted June 1, 2014 GP has cut Cody Buckel, Roman Quinn, and Brandon Maurer from his farm. I went to pick up Maurer but realized I didn't want him either lol. I see that GP has also promoted Javier Baez. Makes sense. Lots of teams are preparing for the draft... should be fascinating.
Laika Community Moderator Posted June 1, 2014 Author Posted June 1, 2014 I went to pick up Maurer but realized I didn't want him either lol. Same. It's bad.
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted June 1, 2014 Posted June 1, 2014 Anyone want save collector Belisario? I'd move himfor tythe smallest of pick upgrades.
z3r0s Old-Timey Member Posted June 1, 2014 Posted June 1, 2014 Did we firm up when the draft is taking place and when picks are dissolved?
z3r0s Old-Timey Member Posted June 1, 2014 Posted June 1, 2014 my very last player (Doolittle) just bumped my wins from 10 to 12 by striking out the side to secure me K's and K:BB. BAM! oops; another game remaining... should remain the same, but I guess there is a saying about chickens I should heed.
Laika Community Moderator Posted June 1, 2014 Author Posted June 1, 2014 Did we firm up when the draft is taking place and when picks are dissolved? Everything will remain the same as what was stated in the mass email. Next year our draft will take place after the signing deadline, but I don't want to implement that change this year right before the draft.
z3r0s Old-Timey Member Posted June 1, 2014 Posted June 1, 2014 have apparently lost the mass email... anyone got a copy?
Laika Community Moderator Posted June 1, 2014 Author Posted June 1, 2014 The draft is coming! The draft is coming! The MLB Rule 4 draft begins on June 5th this year, a Thursday, and concludes on the 7th. Our rule 4 draft will commence on June 8th, the Sunday, at noon o' clock. Our cutdown deadline will be the midnight before our draft (11:59 PM on June 7th). Everybody must trim their minor league roster to 12 total assets by this point: picks + prospects = 12. If picks + prospects 12 after the cutdown deadline, then surplus draft picks will disappear into the ether before the draft begins! Picks that were dissolved into nothingness prior to the draft by an almighty Darrell will not be tradeable after the cutdown deadline. They cease to exist entirely. However, trades involving minor league players CAN occur during our draft, so long as each party does not go over 12 total minor league assets as a result of the specific transaction occurring. This means that in most cases an equal number of minor league assets will exchange hands for trades occurring during the draft. As usual, we will have 12 hour draft windows and when everyone makes a pick they are expected to email the next guy up immediately! If you are on your phone or something and you can't easily email, then at least post a message on the forum asking someone else to email. The draft will happen on Yahoo. Happy drafting, and try not to pick a Mike Zunino when a Miguel Sano is on the board!!!!!!
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted June 1, 2014 Posted June 1, 2014 have apparently lost the mass email... anyone got a copy? I didn't receive it either.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted June 1, 2014 Posted June 1, 2014 I would like to point out that you also drafted Zunino agead of Buxton, not just Sano.
Laika Community Moderator Posted June 1, 2014 Author Posted June 1, 2014 Yes but Zunino vs. Sano was my internal debate
Laika Community Moderator Posted June 1, 2014 Author Posted June 1, 2014 That's not good if people aren't getting mass emails through Yahoo....
z3r0s Old-Timey Member Posted June 1, 2014 Posted June 1, 2014 I got it, I just must have deleted it. Thanks!
BTS Community Moderator Posted June 1, 2014 Posted June 1, 2014 Solid win over Spanky. Looking forward to the Butt Stallions next week.
Laika Community Moderator Posted June 1, 2014 Author Posted June 1, 2014 Boxy cuts Austin Wilson and Jon Denney, promotes Jake
BTS Community Moderator Posted June 1, 2014 Posted June 1, 2014 Losing's never looked so good. Goddammit your team is scary right now.
NorthOf49 Old-Timey Member Posted June 2, 2014 Posted June 2, 2014 Another tough test this week vs. that Pharm Team, gotta keep pace. I'm not tough lol. My offense doesn't hit for any power. Although I am going to squeak by SpeedyGose this week on pitching and steals. I can beat your pitching.
jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted June 2, 2014 Posted June 2, 2014 Where do we make our prospect cuts? And we have a 12-man farm correct? I get all the leagues I'm in mixed up haha just want to make sure.

I get all the leagues I'm in mixed up haha just want to make sure. PM/email a commish, post on this board, post on proboards. No formal process. I just asked Nick about it yesterday.
