A Very Darrelly Dynasty League

[Laika]

Looks like we still need cuts from Sammy, FeatherD, Gibbers, Jaysblue, and Kitten Mittens

[BTS]

If you wanted Miller then send me an email otherwise shut the f*** up.

 

 

 

I guess I just don't fit in with the cookie cutter mode of trash talking in leagues or playing sports, never been my thing. But carry on.

 

The comments on your moves go both ways. I'll be the first to give you credit when you have a contending team of 22-year olds. Part of the fun of these leagues is commenting on what other people do, whether it's giving them praise or a bit of s***.

[z3r0s]

It's all about staying young. At no point do I want a guy to fall of the map due to age.

 

And what I don't get is, people ridicule my moves and then later in the year the trade I was ridiculed for the same f***ing tools that ridiculed my trade come inquire about the players I acquired.

 

lol, the best part of this is that Barreto was (one of) the player that I traded you for Wil Myers. So I certainly can't ridicule you (and I wasn't trying too if it came off that way).

[z3r0s]

Just as a heads up, Dinger, z3r0s, and TCA need to cut one prospect each today.

Jaysblue needs to promote or cut Robbie Ray.

 

I'm going to call up Alex Meyer rather than cut him. I assume I can do that in lieu of using my last waiver pick. If not I can always cut Rob Kaminsky.

I'd give you something for Kaminsky.

[z3r0s]

I'd give you something for Kaminsky.

 

I'd like to get a ruling first as my intention was always to keep him and just promote Meyer. If that isn't legal, we can always postpone the deal until after the waiver draft as it was just MiLB picks going back to GP. (I think I even put that in my trade announcement).

You can call up before the draft, but he has to be one of your 20 keepers.

[z3r0s]

then I'd propose to postpone the deal until after the waiver draft. I think my intention was clear enough in my trade announcement.

Technically that would mean you would be keeping 21 dudes, so it's not kosher. You'll have to either keep him in your group of 20 or cut him loose and hope he lasts until one of your waiver picks (tbh he probably will).

 

Sorry if that's persnickety.

Sure. Just make sure Gibbers protects Barreto.

[z3r0s]

Sure. Just make sure Gibbers protects Barreto.

 

He's a prospect, and Gibbers only has 10 prospects, so I'll check with him.

hmm, that's the reason we talked about this deal being processed after the cut-down, to avoid being subject to the keeper limit. If the de facto cut-down is the end of the waiver draft, it seems I've already said that this is where I wanted the trade to be processed.

Ok, I didn't notice that note in the trade announcement. It's all good. We will say that Gibbers is technically keeping Barreto but leave it processed for now. And you can use your last waiver pick on Meyer

[z3r0s]

I have an email in to Gibbers as well in case he had prospects he wanted to acquire to fill those 2 spots. If he did, I don't mind dropping Kaminsky as it wasn't crystal clear when the trade was to go through (ie immediately after the cut vs after the waiver draft).

[Boxcar]

Hahaha I made that feeder comment totally oblivious to the Miller trade.

 

Makes everything so much better. I see the one million picks that will eventually all go to waste strategy is still in style.

What do I need to cut?

 

I selected my Keepers in Yahoo and actually only have 19 kept. Do I have to actually post who I'm keeping and cutting?

 

Do I need to cut my minors down?

If the thoughts are I'm colluding with Jaysblue then please remove me from the league.

Minors is fine, can keep 12 and you don't have 12.

 

Why wouldn't you keep 20?

 

I guess you can just select your keepers on Yahoo if they are all still on your roster. We post the rosters though because most people are keeping guys they acquired by trade this offseason. Like you'll need to officially keep Upton some how.

The 19 was not including Upton.

 

Is there a way to go back and have one last look at my Keepers on Yahoo?

[Laika]

Yeah you should be able to review or change them. I think there's a little banner above your team when you go to the roster page.

 

If its just the 19+ Upton then no worries about posting a list

[KingKat]

I don't understand how to set my keepers. Maybe I'm too late. Yahoo tells me the The Keeper Declaration Deadline passed.

 

 

[KingKat]

I'll post here if that works.

That's still more starting pitching than is practical but I'll try to work some stuff out after the cut. Cheers.

Carson Smith bumps Erik Johnson from my keeper list as a result of my deal with SG.

NJH, you should know that moronically having the cut deadline the night of the Super Bowl cost me a four spot waiver upgrade, and I will never forgive you for this.

 

What kind of backward ass league with a crooked ass commissioner puts the cut deadline the night of the Super Bowl...?!

[Cyborg]

Lol @ DDL.

[z3r0s]

Lol @ DDL.

 

jelly much?

[BTS]

Cyborg has been waiting for a moment like this for years.
