ARBA Message Board

Rick

After the Redwood players laid a collective egg in the 2018 MLB season, it looks like the best path forward is to retool the team, as there are just too many holes to fill to reasonably expect to be competitive next season. That said, there are still some very strong players that are now available as the...

In the CL Wild Card Game, the Shiner Blondes (95-67) visited the Bali Dawgs (98-64). This was the 1st playoff appearance in franchise history for Bali. In honor of this special occasion, Aaron managed his team live from the Ukraine, thanks to the wonders of modern technology. Bali started their ace...

Walker vs Lamet With all the homerun power on these two teams who would expect a low scoring game. Souza would hit a homerun in the 2nd and Russell would add one in the 6th. Walker, Madson, Albers, and Kimbrel would team up on a shut out and Lamet went the distance for WAS. CMD wins 2-0. Marquez vs Cobb No...

Good morning everyone, One of the things that bothers me about ARBA is that trades go down and I feel like I'm left out in the cold. So with that being said I would like to share with you the guys that are coming up in conversations. Staton is drawing interest as is Martin and Ramos. So if anyone else is inte...

Just 2 years after shocking trading team MVP Andrew McCutchen to their hated rivals in Santa Fe for IF prospect Gleyber Torres, the bitter foes have somehow found common ground once again. This time, it's longtime ace Zack Greinke returning to Santa Fe after a very long time away. Over the past 5 seaso...

Actual rule proposals are due 11/6, so feel free to workshop things before then but get me the actual proposals on/by the 6th. I am personally going to propose eliminating the cap on pitcher GS in the regular season, as I completely agree with Rick that it's pointless when we have an IP cap and, frankly,...

Hi Guys, Well after another year of both teams at .500 or better it's time to see if there is any value in the players on these two teams. Absolutely everyone is available. Except my top prospects. Before you trade take a look and see if we can work something out.

This first year was a blast. Thanks for everyone understanding the mistakes I may have made. And special thanks for to Dennis for showing me around this league and helping the new guy out. As is the plan, my team is open for business, except for my prospects. I am mostly interested in draft picks, cash,...

In the Federal League Wildcard game, the South division Redwood Pioneers (99-63) visited the Central division Surprise Zombies (111-51) in the one-game playoff. Surprise sent David Price (5-1, 3.72 ERA) to the hill and Redwood countered with Chase Anderson (14-5, 2.64 ERA). Redwood struck fir...

Sewell sends Starlin Castro to Bali for Jon LEster and 75K.

Okay, I should probably post something about Shiner's plans for 2019. They certainly have a very crowded roster, with a bunch of rookies more making up for attrition from last year's team. Juan Soto! Starting Pitching is definitely at the top of their wish list as 3 of last year's top starters implod...

I have updated the Draft Order, Money Balances, and New A Player lists. Congrats to Jake deGrom, JD Martinez, Blake Snell, and Blake Treinen on joining the ranks of the A Players! Please let me know asap if anything looks wrong.

Eric · Jon

I think I have to go for it this year, despite the crazy division. So I'm looking for win-now pieces, specifically: At least one, maybe two starters LH DH type Help at 2B, C Usual prospects and picks available, plus a mountain of cash. I also have the following cards that could be of interest: Jonathan Sc...

We current have a limit of 30 cards, with up to 5 additional little A players. What would people think of changing that to 32 cards, with up to 3 additional little A players? Its always been a bit of a challenge to cover 1450 innings and all of our positions with 30 rosters slots. And, to a point, I like the c...
