Well hot damn, first time in years that my Wildcard picks weren't pure insanity

[evv98]

I am guaranteed a top 25 finish.

[Southpaw19]

First scoreboard is coming Monday, April 8th.

 

I did not want to publish one with just 3 days in.

[Clem Fandango]

I don't know how everyone else has been doing, but mine has been crushing it as far as I can tell

[Sammy Sofa]

I think the only dongless dorks I have so far are Stanton, Judge and Willlllllllson.

And now Stanton out 2+ weeks.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

21 is better than 31? I didn't see that in the rules.

2019 HR DERBY SCOREBOARD (as of April 8, 2019)

=========================================

1. The Logan (36)

 

[Andy]

Bench player transaction!! (In case anyone didn't see the rules, you can change a bench player twice per half of the season now but can't do both in the same 30-day period.)

 

Drop Lamb. Add Tatis Jr.

[Derwood]

I was wrong to have hope

[Southpaw19]

21 is better than 31? I didn't see that in the rules.

 

All fix. Sorry for the error. That's what I get for starting the standings on Saturday.

Done and done.

[chopsx9]

Can I:

Drop - V Guerrero

Add - D Santana

 

Drop - D Murphy

Add - G Torres

 

Thanks

[Southpaw19]

Drop - V Guerrero

Add - D Santana

 

Drop - D Murphy

Add - G Torres

 

Thanks

 

Done and done x2. That is your first position transaction of the first half.

Additionally you cannot change bench players for 30 days from 4/9.

[PackLandVA]

Will someone tell me if any of my guys get injured for an extended period of time. Thanks!

[Southpaw19]

Drop: Jake Lamb, Trea Turner

 

Add: Fernando Tatis Jr., Marcus Semien

 

Legal?

 

You can do Tatis for Lamb. However, Trea is an OF and Marcus is a SS. It has to be the same position.

Let me know how you want to proceed.

Turner is listed as a SS/CF/2B, Semien is listed as a SS/3B/2B, why does that not count?

Well first off, Lamb is a bench player, so he can't be traded out yet, right?

 

Turner for Semien should be legal, though

[Southpaw19]

For Clarification

 

TRANSACTIONS

Throughout the season, you may make six (6) adds/drops to your core roster of 10 players. The following rules apply to transactions:

 

* You must drop a player to add another player. A drop/add is one transaction.

* The player added must be from the same position as the player dropped.

* You must post your transaction in the HR Derby transaction thread. The transaction becomes effective at midnight Central Time the day you post it. You will accrue the dropped player's HRs in any game started by midnight Central Time that day. You will accrue the added player's HRs for any games starting after midnight Central Time the next day.

* If you only post an add without a drop or there's any other problem deciphering your intent, the transaction isn't finalized until it's straightened out.

* You may make three (3) transactions before the All-Star Break and three (3) transactions after the All-Star Break. These transactions apply only to the core roster and not the Bench Players. It's use or lose it -- if you don't make three (3) transactions before the All-Star Break, you still only get three (3) transactions afterwards (no rollover transactions).

* You may change your Bench Player(s) twice in the first half of the season and twice in the second half of the season (up from just once at the ASB). HOWEVER … there must be thirty (30) days between transactions.

* No transactions between the deadline on March 27 and 12:00pm Central Time on April 5, 2019 (first week of the season) and also no transactions after 12:00pm Central Time on September 13, 2019.

That being said ^ . . .

 

Position-for-Position means if you place someone at SS (which TomtheBombadil did), then you must replace him with a SS.

 

I didn't realize that he put Trea Turner at SS, so his swap for Marcus Semien is legit, and I can process both of his requests today.

Wait, so he can swap his bench player despite it not being 30 days since opening day?

You have to wait 30 days between bench player swaps. There's no 'since Opening Day' provision.
