Okay, it's about time for me to show some interest in the 2017 season... Shiner might actually get back to winning next year, but there's some work to do. Their shopping list includes Catcher, Shortstop and a Closer. The old adage states that one can never have too much pitching, but Shiner begs to diff...

Sewell is primarily planning to build through the C auction this year, but we'd like to float one trade chip- young Mariners SS Ketel Marte. Major league needs are SP, 1B and 3B. Looking to compete in 2017, but not looking to trade the kid for just a one-year fix.

Travis

Harmony Grove sends their #2 and $300K to Springfield for Bartolo Colon.

Warren

NMO trades Willy Adames, Roman Quinn, and it's #3 in the IOD to SPR for Edwin Encarnacio

.... Or am I just receiving 25 emails per day from the Strat Draft website? Is this happening to anyone else? AA

WAS sends Alex Bergman, Kyle Lewis, Rhys Hoskins, and Bryan Reynolds to KC for Goldschmidt and J.D. Martinez. And a side note I have had offers on Scherzer and for him I would like a good young carded player in a deal. other than that let the dismantling of KC continue.

Okay, so, I've gotten more feedback about the date for the IOD. The 18th doesn't work for some people, the 4th doesn't work for some people, and the 11th doesn't work for me. So, in the event that we don't use Strat Draft, we need to get a date that works. With the C/FA on 2/18, I think we have the following c...

Some other rule change proposals - one that I received and one from me. Others more than welcome! (1) No current "tired" pitcher can be used in a game IF there is an available pitcher who is not "tired". If all pitchers available pitchers are tired, then a tired reliever can be used, but like the curren...

I thought it would be useful to have a thread to discuss using Strat Draft for the IOD. For those of you not familiar with Strat Draft, it is at www.stratdraft.com Login credentials were sent around last year as we have used the site for dispersal drafts and to recruit experienced owners. If you can't...

Aaron

The team is finally beginning to shape up after several years. We would still like to upgrade at 1b and Catcher, and I wouldn't mind picking up another young arm with some upside after losing Heaney to TJ and Rubby DLR having his own elbow issues... and of course Kyle Zimmer never making the majors becau...

KC is putting all players and minors up for trade. The only players I am looking to keep are Profar, Soler, Desclafini, and Severino. All others can be traded. Looking you good young players and top notch minors in return.

I am very pleased to welcome our new owners (and one slightly used one): Dennis Derby Chris Liacouras Josh Miller Carl Strohak Tristan Traviolia They are in the process of familiarizing themselves (or, in Dennis's case, refamiliarizing himself) with the rules of the league and will be participat...

It was with a sad heart that I read the announcement that Gary was leaving the league. Gary was the last founding father from the organizational meetings to the original 1982 season I joined the league in the middle of that 1982 season but was not around for the beginning. He did leave the league for seve...

Eric · Mike

In their previous meeting, the Umpires of Rome pummeled Clayton Kershaw, winning 12-3, so the team came in expecting to put some runs on the board. Except that Kershaw is really, REALLY good (he K'd 11 over 8 innings, giving up 1 run on a Melvin- you'll always be BJ to me- Upton). And so is Marco Estrada...

Ye Olde Commissioner · Y.O.C.

All - I have posted a bunch of information on the site:- 2016-17 Proposed Calendar (on the "Calendar" page, duh). Note in particular the Feb 11 and Mar 4 evening dates for the C/FA Auction and IOD. Please let me know ASAP if there is an issue with those dates (or any others) that I am missing. Pretty su...
