HCKL Chat/Trades

Hey guys,

Quick update - I have 3 votes for the 14th (or later) and specifically 1 guy who will be traveling 14/15, so thinking we start Weds 16th?

Also, very few trades Smitty so last roster you got from me is mostly good, I will put an update out this weekend but if you check the transactions page you'll see there is very little there. Last update I sent around Oct 10 & only a couple of moves since then.

Sorry guys but I just dont have the time or passion for strat as much as I had before. I'm probably only going to play one keeper league. I tend to like the ones with no prospect drafts so this one is out. I hope you all can understand it isn't you guys-you are all a ton of fun to play with...just lost me free time. AFD

Hey Dickie - really sorry to hear that, but completely understand. The silver lining for me is maybe now your hex on my team when we meet in the Semis will disappear! LOL

Best of luck & stay in touch -

Dave

I trade Paul Goldschmidt to Stoney for Marco Scutaro and Jose Valverde.

I'll drop David Pauley to stay at 40.

Confirmed

Deal is voided. Goldschmidt is not on my roster. See league e-mail for details.

Okay lets get a little hot stove action percolating before the draft...

I have 3 legit CF's in Bourn, Jay and Span Bourn is a 1; and Jay and Span are 2's. I also have Darwin Barney a 1 at 2b All are available. I also have Ted Lilly and Anibal Sanchaez and maybe Prospect Drew Smyly available on the pitching front.

I need:
Catcher
1st Base
Both corner OF
DH
to a lesser extent a 3b
and I'll always entertain draft picks

Send offers, none of these guys will be cut, I have plenty of other dreck to get rid of on this squad, so if one of them strikes your fancy, let me know.

Hi guys,

Sorry this weekend was busier than I expected. After getting all the feedback, and also looking still for a replacement for AFD, here is our projected timetable for FA draft:

Sun Jan 13: updated rosters & available players list going out

Weds Jan 16: drops including stadiums due @ midnite EST

Thurs Jan 17th: draft starts 10am EST, no clock Rnd 1, 2 hr clock thereafter, separate link for stadium draft will also be posted

Draft should conclude no later than Jan 31 or Feb 1. I have emails out to several replacements for AFD but will also now post on the main SOM BB thread.

Thanks,
Dave/Qk

Hi everyone,

Please welcome Craig aka rburg to HCKL, he will be taking over AFD's squad. I sent out an email which includes his contact info, so please use that latest HCKL email introducing him for any reply-all type of messages to the league.

We are still on track for the schedule I posted above, will let you know if anything changes.

One note - if stadium stats have not been previewed by SOM as of the start of our draft, we'll do the stadium draft at a later date.

Get your drops ready & welcome Craig/rburg!

Dave/Qk

I still have a few good bats vs LHP available

ARod 308/410/514
Cuddyer 351ob/577slug
Carroll 338/405/434
Uggla 371 ob/405 slug
R.Weeks 387 ob
Guzman
303/401/548

also looking to move the following

Morrison
Danks
Hanson
C.Kelly
Romero

Hawk, PM sent.

(EDIT) No Torres, I forgot I dealt him. Have the rest of the guys listed below.

Also have RP/closer Benoit who is a good fit for a pitcher park team, and SP prospects like:

Carlos Martinez
Taijuan Walker
James Paxton

Could move 1 of them in a deal. Main needs are 2-way DH/1B (could swap Teixeira in such a deal) and RPs/good 5th SP.
