Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 Trading Trout seems like an exceptionally bad idea. Please don't do it. Especially not to Greenwood or North.
TheHurl Site Manager Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 Randy's accomplishments: - pissing off the entire league and getting booted mid-draft - gifting me Freddie Freeman - drafting one of the worst fantasy teams in history And you still think he did better than Boxy lol. giving us TRM, still up in the air on that one
TheHurl Site Manager Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 It should be noted "active" does not equal "improving". that's the leagues favourite kind of active

KingKat Old-Timey Member Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 Trading Trout seems like an exceptionally bad idea. Please don't do it. Especially not to Greenwood or North. North badly needs a CF though, I would try to leverage that. I think he might be in enough of a pickle to make it work for both of them. Couldn't hurt to ask. At worst he tries to work some 10 team gargantuan trade that's bound to fail but is good for a laugh.

I think he had the worst draft in the league, easily.

AdamGreenwood Old-Timey Member Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 I'm not going to list them, but there are definitely teams with far weaker drafts. Baltimore had one of the strongest starting rotations in the league. Offense was pretty bad though.

Baltimore had one of the strongest starting rotations in the league. Offense was pretty bad though. When TRM took over the draft was more than 450 players deep and his offense was Yelich, Perez, Schoop and David Murphy. I'm convinced the entire thing was a troll by Randy.

Meanwhile, DDL is Has anyone who isn't already in the league even posted in this thread? This seems like a really bad time for a manager search. Board is pretty dead.

This seems like a really bad time for a manager search. Board is pretty dead. Another possibility is that, at ~35 owners now, we've exhausted the list of interested parties who visit this board. I think in general, people aren't nuts about inheriting a team anyway, especially in such a deep league. People want to draft their own teams, unless the league is so awesome that they're dying to get in by any means.
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 I can't even imagine what it would take to get me to move him in BORED. One Bryce Harper
TRM Verified Member Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 Angel Pagan CF,OF - SF David Murphy OF - CLE Jeff Locke SP - PIT Kendall Graveman RP - OAK Zach Putnam RP - CHW FWIW, I drafted these folks.

BTS Community Moderator Posted December 30, 2015 Author Posted December 30, 2015 One Bryce Harper plus stuff

An expansion draft involving assetts from 3-4 team might be more appealing but with the draft slated to start on Jan. 2, there's no time to set-up something like that. Need an owner for Silvergunn ASAP or failing that a prospects guy who would enjoy getting a team through the draft though I can't think of anyone who is that hardcore about prospects and not already in the league.

I've asked silvergun to run the draft. I'm hoping he's willing to to that.
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 I've asked silvergun to run the draft. I'm hoping he's willing to to that. If not we should kick him out of the DDL as punishment. And do a dispersal draft with his players.
KingKat Old-Timey Member Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 I've asked silvergun to run the draft. I'm hoping he's willing to to that. Yeah that would be alright. Then maybe we can look into creating a pool of candidates and possibly holding a 2 to 4 team dispersal draft which would be a way to make the new owners feel more invested.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 If not we should kick him out of the DDL as punishment. And do a dispersal draft with his players. I would even go as far as stripping him of his title and passing it to the runner-up.
TheHurl Site Manager Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 two of my three criteria still stand. Obviously the dispersal draft doesn't need to happen but I will take the Mets, and do the draft until a more active owner is found.
BTS Community Moderator Posted December 30, 2015 Author Posted December 30, 2015 two of my three criteria still stand. Obviously the dispersal draft doesn't need to happen but I will take the Mets, and do the draft until a more active owner is found. What were your three criteria?
TheHurl Site Manager Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 What were your three criteria? That a replacement be searched and that no one say anything when I do everything in my power to piss off AG (including using my entire window despite being online and having a list to pick from minute one)
BTS Community Moderator Posted December 30, 2015 Author Posted December 30, 2015 Your dumn I can't wait until you repeat your DDL and LOD performance in BORED.
