ARBA Message Board

Eric · Eric

Sure, I might as well spend more of my afternoon on the message board. In case anyone else wants to participate in 2nd Trading Period action, here are a few ideas. Shiner's wish list looks like this:1B vs. RHP - Probably LH to partner with Freese, part-timers welcomeC upgrade - Covered on PA with the Pe...

Eric · Eric

Huh, apparently all 2nd Trading Period transactions must include one of my teams. Works for me! Anyway, this one is a little more significant than the past 3 deals... Desperate to distract doubters from dubious decisions on salaries and auction bids, Surprise sends a large duffel bag filled with $...

Eric · Eric

Now it's Surprise's turn to announce a not so huge deal. They will send the invaluable Ivan De Jesus to Davenport in exchange for Geovany Soto and $20K. In related news, Geovany Soto is available!

Rick

Redwood is looking to add decent starts to its rotation. We're a little "righty" heavy, so of particular interest are southpaws. We would also be interested in acquiring a 1st round pick in the draft. If you're looking to flip some starting pitching or draft picks for prospects and youth, we can go...

Eric · Eric

Shiner spent some more of that cash they failed to spend in the auction to fill out the bench. This time, they acquired the adequacy of Ryan Rua for $120K in Traveler's Checks. The 2nd trading period sure is exciting!

Bali

I went a bit crazy in the C draft and have some available IP if anyone is interested. Cash would be fine.

All - Thanks to all for another smooth Auction! The site should be updated with all the auction information, including updated Rosters and Money Balances, and a list of the untaken FA. All Untaken FA will be available in the draft for a B1 salary just like a rookie and, if not drafted, will be availab...

All -The START TIME for the C/FA Auction SATURDAY FEB 18 will be 5:00 Central / 6:00 Eastern / 4:37 am Eric Standard Time. In a vain attempt to avoid the problems we have every year with AIM, I would like to use the MUCH more user-friendly and stable slack.com. Later tonight I will be sending an invite to...

Eric · Eric

Let's get the 2nd Trading Period Party started! Yeah, this blockbuster will really shake the league to its foundation...or absolutely not. Shiner sends $80K in gold doubloons to Bali in exchange for nominal catcher Curt Casali, who might have purchased more cheaply in the auction if I hadn't tempo...

Bali

Is anyone short of abs in LF or basically anywhere? I need to pick up an additional 40 starts (Unl are welcome). I have some mediocrity in the likes of Cody Asche, Hank Conger (yay!), Ryan Rua. I'd also be willing to trade some RPs. Let me know if anything jumps out at you. Aaron

Eric · Eric

Because I'm a crazy dreamer who thrives on abuse, I'm going to throw this out there and see what happens... Anyway, Surprise brilliantly allowed their 2 RH closers to depart in the auction and failed to adequately replace them. I'm sure that will inspire many sympathetic tears, so if you have a good R...

Eric · Eric

Surprise has some truly great benches over the years. 2017 looks like a glaring exception, although at least they own Tomlinson, so it's not a total loss. I definitely got carried away with adding cheap bench players and need to unload at least one of them. The most available is Ivan DeJesus, who is...

Eric · Eric

We somehow ended up with only the uninspiring Carlos Perez, so yeah, we're still searching. SHI has plenty of cash to throw at the problem and I'm open to other suggestions. Shiner might also have some interest in other bats, such as 1B vs. RHP or maybe another OF. Let's talk!

Mike

Whose team has 196 starts, but could use an extra hitter? That's right.. Rome. For those of your who decided against taking out a second mortgage to afford Ricky Nolasco, hit me up... There's a deal to be made.

Ye Olde Commissioner · Ye Olde Commissioner

All Rosters should be up to date, as well as Money Balances. Please check your roster and let me know if anything looks wrong asap. The Free Agent and C Player lists are also current and are listed in the order in which they will be available for bid at the C/FA Auction. Thanks, -Tom
