We are on Fantrax. The team that just quit is OK. Not championship caliber, and heavily reliant on veterans like Stras, Ozuna, Kluber, Calhoun. They do have Story and Bichette. Pretty ideal rebuilding situation if you're into selling 30+ YO vets and assembling your own young core.

 

lol... OK.

[BTS]

ok fine. If you guys will have me, I'll take over.

 

Sent you the invite.

 

We're one pick in to the NPD, and your team needs roster maintenance. Rosters are supposed to be locked for adds/drops during the draft (because Fantrax forces it), but let commishes know what players you want to drop to clean your roster up for the draft, and we'll make the cuts.

 

A few things you'll need to know:

- The draft room likely won't let you make picks if you have players on the IL with no red flag.

- Hitters with more than 1000 MLB PA or 50 (GS + 0.5 relief appearances) can't be on your farm until the draft is over.

- This draft is very shallow, because it's our first year switching to the LoD format of a NPD early in the year. We've already picked over the MLB 2020 MLB draft in our last midseason prospect draft.

- Any player owned by an MLB team and who has played 0 MLB games is eligible to be picked in this draft.

I’ve paused the draft. If Ling shows up he can make his pick and we can continue to MAD’s first pick at 19, at which point we’ll pause again until his team has a new owner.

 

I wrote him on FB, which is normally how I communicate with him. However, there is usually at least a few days response period if not more. As of this post, it appears he has not seen my message yet...

[The Cats Ass]

So what’s going on with the draft? Seems silly to pause it and wait for someone to maybe show up in a few days

OK. Now that Greenwood is on board I've resumed again.

 

We'll pause again if we get to 19 and Greenwood still needs time to clean his roster.

[L54]

He hasn't indicated otherwise, but also hasn't made any transactions in Fantrax this offseason.

 

L54, can you reach out to him?

 

Yup, he will be making his pick

[jays4life19]

AG - we will be sending you a few offers shortly

[BTS]

FYI: I've temporarily increased roster size to 27. You can't add picks directly to your farm in the draft room, so the idea is that add them to your MLB roster, then immediately move them down to your farm. Commishes will do the second step if you draft someone without a green flag.

Draft -> Allow drafting to minors slots

 

Ah, I see. Guys without flags would still be a problem.

Yes, there are a handful of guys without green flags that have never played a MLB game. Another COVID anomaly.

OK, in that case commishes can just process the handful of non green flag guys that get taken.

[BTS]

OK, It turns out Ling can't even make his picks because his roster is illegal.

 

I'm going to make cuts for people until midnight tonight. Spanky, let me know if you want Munoz cut and I'll do that.

[AdamGreenwood]

Hey mods,

 

Can you drop the following players for me. It won't let me do it while the draft is in progress.

Pedro Severino

Zac Collins

Ross Stripling

Austin Voth

Jonathan Losaiga

Kendall Williams

Dax Fulton

Cj Van Eyk

I'd have traded for a couple of those guys, bro?

So you still want Munoz cut?

[Spanky99]

If I could, yes.

[TheHurl]

Added my guy. My draft is done. If someone can message me when it is done I will clean up my roster

[BTS]

If I could, yes.

 

Done

[AdamGreenwood]

OK, can someone post a link to the league spreadsheet?

[AdamGreenwood]

OK, having gone over the roster, I'm pretty much gonna do a complete overhaul.

Everyone must go except Bo Bichette and Dustin May.

 

Going to try to avoid 2-1 offers etc, but open to player + 2022 draft pick for a player.

 

Get those offers in. Will respond tonight if possible. DM of send trade offers.

[jaysblue]

What do we have to cut our rosters down to again? Thanks.

[BTS]

No cutdown. Roster maxes are 26 MLB and 15 minors. But you need to let commishes know tonight if you're dropping anyone to make room for draft picks in the NPD. You can't make drops yourself now that the draft room is open.

 

You also need to make sure everyone on your IL has a red flag, or the draft room won't let you pick.

Ok thanks. As for red flags, even if they're not on the real IL but have a red flag, I could keep them on my IL and they don't count towards my 26 MLB roster?

Yes. If they have a red flag in fantrax they can be on your IL right now. Just like LoD. IF a player has a red flag now and loses his red flag mid draft and it prevents you from picking, one of the commishes will process a drop for you to allow you to move the IL'd player from your IL so you can pick.

[jaysblue]

Could I drop the following

 

Daniel Volgebach

Max Stassi

Cole Sluser

Homer Bailey

Cam Bedrosian

 

That should bring me to 26 players on my MLB roster. My minors are 12/15 so I'm good.

 

Thanks

[AdamGreenwood]

ok, sent trade deals out to everyone. Don't think this round will top DDL.
