Tracer Bullet

I'm looking at keeping ~600 points right now and the vast majority of my players are exempt. So if anyone has some points to move...

Your team is calvinball

I believe B is correct. That's the draft rule. In the draft, you can take a player in the MLB draft and if they start in the Majors, you keep them, even if they haven't been in the majors yet. According to abuck, viewtopic.php?p=2864355#p2864355, once a player exceeds the RK limit, he can't be in your minors. We'll need a ruling from abuck, but I believe we've always played that if a player is in the actual minors, he can be in yours. I believe that Abuck will say it was OK for me to draft him in the ML draft last year. It was OK for me to stash him on my DL for most of the season. It was OK for me to move him to the minors at the end of last year, since he was actually in the minors. But if I want to keep him for the off season, then he must be one of my 10 major league keepers. No one who has exceeded Roadkill's minor league limits can be kept in the minors during the off season. Also, Dan Hudson is available. Almost no points and you will be able to stash him on the DL at the start of next year. :clapping: That was my understanding. When rosters are legal, you get 10 ML keepers and 10 guys that haven't exceeded the RK minors limits.

i've never seen that page. try click "League URL" and see if it takes you to the home page. There should be a "my page" tab at the top.

I could add Espinosa on top of Gordon if you like. Trout, Dee, and Espinosa?

Farrell has about as much credibility as you do on this topic. Would make good cover for Anzalone though. Oh I was totally solid until and NFL team called Kelly. No HC of mine will ever be a candidate for an NFL job. Nosiree. I know Will Muschamp isn't going anywhere. He's solid as a...hey Will, why you talking to Texas in 2014 when Mack retires... Oh [expletive]. How did I forget Muschamp interviewed with the Bears just this week! Yeah I think AA's reasoning may not be so closely tied to his college coach interviewing for an NFL gig.

Trout and Dee Gordon?

Trout and your #2 are a small price to pay Tim

In keeping with tradition, you must draft players already drafted, including taking the #2 overall selection in last June's draft with your 2nd round pick in our prospect draft.

I have credibility. About Alex Anzalone's state of mind? That's wasn't intended to be an attack on your general credibility. I thought that was clear.

No

Jenkins declaring for the draft probably locked this up for UF

ND fans would kill themselves if he leaves already. Yeah, no. Many, many ND fans had this reaction on the season: "Nice job, Brian. Now run the damn football." There's a lot of folks who still think he's small timey. Hard to see what would ever please them if this season didn't. It sounds like this was a negotiating ploy. But even if he really wants to go to the NFL, the job looks pretty [expletive] good right now. So we'd be ok. Sounds like he has a 2nd interview set up for this weekend once he gets back in the States. That sounds like lore than just negotiating. I think you'd be losing a great coach, and it would come a few weeks before National Signing Day. There's a chance your recruiting class could fall apart with no coach right before signing. I think you're overreacting. Most players don't pick a school b/c of a coach. Might some recruits look? Maybe. But ND could promote either of their two coordinators, even if on an interim basis, and very little would change. Martin has been on Kelly's staff for over a decade. Diaco has been with him for ~5 years and was associated with half a dozen HC positions this winter. And that assumes there's mutual interest. Anazalone has already decommitted... Yes. If he made the decision in 24 hours and enrolled that would be amazing and impossible. He has been the least stable recruit all year. This has nothing to do with the eagles. Watching the other recruits publicly call him out instead of the usual "has to do what's best for him" line confirms the rumor that the other guys never felt he was all in. I'd love to have him as he'd probably be in the MLB 2-deep as of next Tuesday when classes start, but I'd rather he leave now than on NSD or after enrolling.

ND assist coach salaries reportedly "mid-big ten level" and some promises were made by Kelly to assistants, many of whom received interest for other jobs.

First, has the league never had a tie-breaker for draft position? That seems unlikely. Why doesn't it just carry over? Second, is this still the rule? So that if you would rather have a sandwich pick (last and first) than say the 2nd to last pick in the first round, you could choose that draft position? From the Rules sticky: "Draft position will be chosen by the players in the reverse order of the standings (ie if you finish last, you get first choice as to what position you want to draft in)."

As trading is about to begin again, I'm looking to take points with lots of exempt, guys, esp SP (Eovaldi, Smyly, Britton, Chen) avail. The only player that isn't available is Cespedes.

viewtopic.php?f=24&t=61292 All I know if I have first pick in both drafts. I don't know the rules on tie breaks, but the ML draft order is started in that thread. The prospect draft also has ties to work out (starting with Tim and bukie for 2/3 pick).

@iChocolate9 Im not worried and you shouldnt be either. #GoIrish That's Nix.

OU? I'd put them right in that second tier with a bunch of schools. They played several good teams but only 1 great defense, got shut down, and basically played to a stalemate (and ultimately lost). Seems to me it's Bama and then a bunch of teams behind them that are harder to separate. I don't know that you can put any one of them definitively ahead of the pack. I dont know. Clemson moved it better and dominated the 4rth quarter but it took massive coaching blunders from les, a 4th and 25 conversion and a fg at th buzzer to win. I agree on the second tier mess but put Oregon in it and have 4 sec teams in it and a few other teams probably not Ohio state or nd. I also think that second tier could all beat Nama if they played a great game or bama laid a steamer. So ND is a borderline top 10 team? Genius

I sorta feel bad for deserving players but the whole thing is such a joke. I wonder how important the hof is to current stars. Does Castro care? Stanton? Seems like it was a huge deal to guys like Santo and even Sandberg's era. Wonder if that's still the case.
