2022 HR Derby - Discussions and Transactions

[Southpaw19]

I have confirmed the error (which is technically mine); and the same has happened with Derwood (G.Hampson). I'm trying to work out a fair resolution. Stay tuned...

[Southpaw19]

@Derwood - I need you to pick a replacement bench player, so I can make adjustments on your team. Thank you.

[Southpaw19]

I just noticed that Nate Lowe, who I picked for one of the 3 WC spots, is a $50 dollar player. Swap him for Julio Rodriguez and reward my honesty with 32 HRs, please!

 

What I have decided is to award 1/3 of Lowe's total home runs (4) + an additional home run for my error. (1).

Also, Julio Rodriguez replaced Mr. Lowe.

Do you have an updated link for bench players. I'm still being directed to last year's list

[Derwood]

I'll go with Brandon Drury (CIN)

[Rex Buckingham]

Main Roster Transactions:

 

Drop: Cody Bellinger ($25)

Add: George Springer ($75)

 

Drop: Brandon Lowe ($200) - how did I not know he missed 2 months with a back injury? smh

Add: Jazz Chisolm ($50)

 

Edit: lol, and now Chisolm hurt his back. Can I just cancel this transaction since you didn't clear it yet?

 

Future Idea - we should get to pick one hitter in the HRD at the ASG and add their total HRs (or a % of them) to our total

Edited July 30, 2022 by abmillis

[SouthSideRyan]

Do I still need to wait 30 days from my last bench transaction or does that reset in 2nd half?

[SouthSideRyan]

Well enough time has passed now.

 

Bench spot

 

Drop Taylor Ward

Add Julio Rodriguez

[sweetpeteman]

Bench: drop Trout, add Julio Rodriguez

[texascub]

I’d like to drop Vlad Jr from DH and add Aaron Judge as my DH.

[Southpaw19]

UPDATE: My apologies for the lack of updates in the last 10-12 days. My wife suffered a heart attack on July 18th, and I've been taking care of her, and working around the house (in addition to my regular job). I am at a point, where I can finally catch up, and will begin to do so.

[Southpaw19]

I'll go with Brandon Drury (CIN)

 

Correction made. 1/3 of Drury's home runs (6) + 1 additional home run for admin error = 7.

1. George-for-Cody: Done and done.

2. Jazz for Brandon cancelled per your request.

3. It's difficult to get people to sign up initially, let alone pick a HR derby competitor in a short window of time. Good idea, though.

[SouthSideRyan]

Jesus man, all the best to you both

[Southpaw19]

Do I still need to wait 30 days from my last bench transaction or does that reset in 2nd half?

 

The 30 day rule does reset in the second half. I will make this more clear in the rules moving forward.
