Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted March 28, 2023 Posted March 28, 2023 I’d be in favour of going back to 20 keepers. Making hard choice necessitates activity. I used to be one of the heaviest traders in the league so I’ll take my share of the blame when it comes to the decline of league activity.

Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted March 28, 2023 Posted March 28, 2023 Seriously though, this year starts in 2 days... anything happening is next year.

What you're saying makes intuitive sense. But I also remember thinking that going full dynasty would increase activity because it would enhance the value of non-elite relievers, good bench players, and SP7/8 types.

Fine line, but there was way more activity than, and frustration at cutdown day. Lets talk about it, but it has no baring on this year. In the FC you keep 23 of 27. 4 round waiver draft.
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted March 29, 2023 Posted March 29, 2023 I kind of miss the waiver draft.
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted March 29, 2023 Posted March 29, 2023 I kind of miss the waiver draft. It's a fun wrinkle even if it's for 3 rounds, KEEP; 23... 3 round waiver draft and action, mon.
Laika Community Moderator Posted March 29, 2023 Author Posted March 29, 2023 This league could 100% use some Stranger Danger Why doesn’t MikeM play here? He should. I’d welcome william with open arms too Basically, nobody has wanted to leave in a while and we haven't landed on an obvious reason to boot anybody. Carlos has been the next one up for like 2 years.
BTS Community Moderator Posted March 29, 2023 Posted March 29, 2023 Carlos has been the next one up for like 2 years. I hope you have better luck than I did saying this about Carlos in LoD.

Yeah but when you have guys like Spanky with 10 players on IR at all times, that’s much less players in the pool for such moves
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted March 30, 2023 Posted March 30, 2023 Yeah but when you have guys like Spanky with 10 players on IR at all times, that’s much less players in the pool for such moves Shut up, moron.
Laika Community Moderator Posted March 30, 2023 Author Posted March 30, 2023 Want to move Blackmon and Waino for draft picks. Could move any other OF for a good 2B.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted March 31, 2023 Posted March 31, 2023 Colin Holderman got a Hold yesterday. Nice.
TheHurl Site Manager Posted April 2, 2023 Posted April 2, 2023 I have way more interest in the DDL than the LoD still. I love my team. I'm just not a trade or scour the waiver wire guy. I have 10 hitters that should get 500+ PAs for the first time in a couple seasons (and most are under 25). I badly need to build my pen again. All my draft picks are available
TheHurl Site Manager Posted April 2, 2023 Posted April 2, 2023 and with that I make my first move of the new Seniors Circuit era. Willing to move my young top 100 dynasty assets for more power and eventually a top 10 pitcher.

TheHurl Site Manager Posted April 2, 2023 Posted April 2, 2023 Yer dumn. You didn't like the Gimenez for Albies move? Someone accepting my first offer without any negotiation makes me feel like it's an overpay. Considering where my pitching still is, that first rounder could be a good one. If the second statement "trading my under 25 top 50 talent" is the dum part. I already had that conversation with my unofficial advisor. And she agreed that it is dum. Build around Gunnar, Volpe and Walker. My apologies to those that sent offers.

Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted April 2, 2023 Posted April 2, 2023 I think Gimenez is probably already better.
z3r0s Old-Timey Member Posted April 3, 2023 Posted April 3, 2023 I think Ozzie will have a great year now that he's finally healthy again. But I don't think there is a big drop-off to Gimenez and the pick loomed large. Also helps me this year as I can use him at SS and Jazz at 2B until they both loose those positions next year.
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted April 4, 2023 Posted April 4, 2023 5 year plan made 2 illegal pickups. I dropped him to the bottom of the waiver order. And I put Dodd through waivers since he's making his debut today.
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted April 4, 2023 Posted April 4, 2023 Might as well just waive them, now.
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted April 4, 2023 Posted April 4, 2023 Might as well just waive them, now. I did. Both off on Friday
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted April 4, 2023 Posted April 4, 2023 These convoluted waiver rules are big deterrent to league activity. Anyone could have taken these guys with the last pick of the prospect draft. Why wasnt Brito put on waivers after his start. Y’all are a bunch of esoteric s***-dicks. This league sucks.

I wanted to pick Brito up tonight at 8, dink. lol
TheHurl Site Manager Posted April 5, 2023 Posted April 5, 2023 I did. Both off on Friday Do we do our new player waivers on Friday? There are Debuts not on Waivers. Are they available to be picked up? Just looking for some clarification here.

Just looking for some clarification here. No automatic waivers We will waive players by request, or if a commissioner notices a hot prospect debut But most debuts just end up going through the automatic, two day + 8 PM ET deadline

Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted April 5, 2023 Posted April 5, 2023 Owning Eloy Jiminez has been extremely, frustrating. I'm not enjoying this player.
