Done and done. First bench transaction on 4/15/22

Done and done. First bench transaction on 4/14/22

Got it - thanks Derwood, for your patience on this.

Got it. I will also blame my ignorance on Stanton generally being Mr. Glass. I just assumed he was injured again last year and didn't make the cut.

Good catch. I'm going to blame the lockout, because well... I can. This is what I get for not going back to updating bench options, or just removing them entirely. Andy and Derwood: Please choose another bench player to replace Stanton. This can be done at any time. You don't have to wait for the "deadline", due to my error. It just needs to be a player NOT in the main 4 player groups.

Don't know if you listened to the episode, but these baby blue jammies made the list!

I did not include these for the same reason these did not make my list either: Both sets scream SOFTBALL jersey to me.

I will post the latest episode info here. You can visit my LinkTree to find your podcast player of choice to listen. ----------------------------------------- Episode 9 In this episode, I recap the first 10% of the season (16 games).

Um... no?

I thought everyone would pick Trout, which makes him a less desirable pick.

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. · The salaries of each drop/add must keep you at or under your salary cap. · 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 bench player transactions. · No transactions between the deadline on April 6 and 12:00pm Central Time on April 14, 2022 (first week of the season) and also no transactions after 12:00pm Central Time on September 15, 2022.

First scoreboard will be posted on Sunday, April 17, 2022

Bench player reveals will be out later today. I'm waiting on one correction.

FYI - I'm allowing texascub's entry, even though it was past the deadline. The reason is, we have a low turnout this year. Last year was 15 teams and that was a new low. This year was 12 before texascub.

No. They are "free" and the equivalent of wild cards in previous years.
