why would you even accept such a one sides trade?! (as-in the one you thought you saw and not the actual trade)

I was in a league long ago where one of the managers would constantly throw these absurd trade offers out there trawling for someone to click the wrong button and sure enough someone would and then there would be a desperate campaign for folks to vote against said trade, haha (it wasn't me).
― Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Friday, 31 May 2019 22:25 (four years ago) link
the deed is done. and i don't think the trade was absurd!

i'm unbelievably back in the mix at the back of the pack -- it'll be a knife fight in a phone booth for 12th place.

Not 1 but 2 grand slams today, yes from my team whose only keeper is on the IL with a busted testicle.

Said keeper had surgery to repair said busted testicle and may (?) begin light baseball activities shortly.

now that i'm not in first place anymore i feel like i'm allowed to complain about how badly my pitching rotation is fucking me
― na (NA), Tuesday, 18 June 2019 16:58 (four years ago) link
some of which was me gambling on streaming options, sure, but my young hotshot pitchers (paddack, strahm, and fried) fell apart and stasburg has had some shitty games recently. on the plus side, darvish has been gradually improving and clevinger just came off the IL, so hopefully that plus verlander will stem the bleeding
― na (NA), Tuesday, 18 June 2019 17:12 (four years ago) link
Having been in last place all season despite having an across-the-board fine offense I feel that. My best pitcher has been the thoroughly solid #4 guy Mike Minor.

This is one hell of a trade that's brewing between The Guns of Buxton and Porno for Shapiros. Gutsy move, both of you!

Team name I thought of the other day: Acuña Matata

My mistake last year was waiting too long to make a deal and push for first. Just hoping Springer comes back as hot as he was before the injury. And stays healthy obviously.

i believe alonso is a keeper for me, i drafted him
― na (NA), Monday, 24 June 2019 21:24 (four years ago) link
or is keeper-eligible, i mean. but maybe you mean he was a free agent prior to the draft.
― na (NA), Monday, 24 June 2019 21:25 (four years ago) link
you haven't kept him yet!
― Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Monday, 24 June 2019 21:41 (four years ago) link
sorry for the confusion, i was reading the K/FA as their eligibility, not as their current status. it doesn't matter.

just an FYI – i accidentally hit the "-" button next to Winkler's name instead of closing the window, and then return because i am dumb and was closing a bunch of windows at once and not paying attention. hence the drop and instant re-add in the transactions.

if it helps appease the league – everyone can have Winkler for two weeks.

usually my pitching is great and my hitting is mediocre and this year it's the other way around, i'm averaging 2 pts per pitching category.

i drafted that fucker in my other league (for $10) and carried his sub-mendoza ass for two months before dropping him. now this – he's gone in both leagues in seconds. anyways, glad he's hitting and am a big fan of his.

Since this league was turned into a keeper league, has there ever been a team with all 5 Keepers on the DL?

I have inadvertently dismissed Eovaldi, who has been on NA. Looks like he may be becoming closer for the red sox. Will you guys be bros and let me have him after the waiver period? I'll have lost those days anyway, due to my negligence, though i don't know how it happened. cheers, love you
― francisF, Saturday, 20 July 2019 16:32 (four years ago) link
better yet perhaps commish can place him back on my team? i've just done it

hey - so i just got back from chicago where i had spotty access to the interwebs. what's up?
― Mad Piratical (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Monday, 22 July 2019 14:20 (four years ago) link
can you drop someone so you have room on your roster? i'll de-drop eovaldi for you and maybe rename your team for lols.

― Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Monday, 22 July 2019 16:41 (four years ago) link
he asked literally right away and i'd done the same for myself when i hit the wrong fucking button earlier, so ya.everyone gets one.

Okay I dropped Cain, who played one game for me in an effort to maybe get a steal, where i'm dead last. Collected I CSThanks Thermo for the help, and yes feel free to change my name to the Mulligans if it makes Al feel better
― francisF, Monday, 22 July 2019 21:40 (four years ago) link
Collected 1* CS that should say
Apparently renaming teams is where my powers end.
Oh well. I don’t think “Nathan Eovaldi #1 Fan Club” would have fit anyways.
