Strat-O-Matic Baseball 365

So the ratings book indicates that Billy Hamilton will have a card. How could this be true with only 19 AB's?

Guys,

Just want to let you all know the state of the league. Quick recap, my wife, the big bread winner in our house, lost her job in August, we have been unable to find anything that fits her skill set and/or salary here in Buffalo. We know we will be moving, just not sure where or when. We have some promising leads these next 2 weeks in Virginia and Michigan. My best guest is we will be leaving Buffalo around May 1.
What does all this have to do with this league? Well for starters, at the moment, I do not have a discretionary income (hell I don't have any income), not sure when that will change but it could delay the start of things. I do have a few credits in the bank so It won't effect all my play. Secondly packing up and moving is a HUGE undertaking and a giant time suck. I don't know if.when I'll have time to get out rosters, player avail sheets, etc. Nor do I know if/when I'll be able to babysit a draft. I just think it's fair you all know what is going on. I'll keep you posted as I can.

That said, I've examined my team with the help of the ratings book and have determined I can move the following pieces:

1. George Kottaras C very good OB, for a catcher
2. BJ Upton - obvioulsy a Flyer type, if you think he can bounce back, won't cost much
3 Mark Trumbo - BIG power against LHP, not 100% I want to move him, might take some convincing
4. Jeremy Hellickson- Bottom of the rotation type
5. Sam LeCure Reverse RHRP VERY tough on lefties
6. Robbie Ross- Reverse LHRP, Lecure's opposite
7. Rafael Soriano Closer straonger against RHH

If I didn't list em, I means either i didn't think you'd want them or I'm not inclined to move them. Feel free to send offers.

I need a corner OF and a DH vs RHs. I have some good trade bait in Utley (top 5 2B card) and Jaso (great C vs RHs with 52 pts of OB), and have picks and prospects to deal as well. Holler if you have someone.

We deal Jaso to Terry for Mike Carp. Terry to confirm.

BTW thx Terry, quick & clean.

OK,

I have a few pieces to deal and a few needs (LF, CF, bullpen and FA picks) I am maxed out on prospect picks, but if you want these guys and a 2nd rounder and will give up a 1st rounder, we can talk.

Assuming Terry okay this deal- league approves

Approved on the Jaso for Carp trade

Just a bump to see if we can get ANY activity in this league...

Will this league be regular or unleashed?

Regular, I've given up trying to convert this one.
