Just a heads up, you currently don't have a 4th or 5th round pick, unless I've missed recording a trade.

guess I should edit a better example
I think most will get the idea
my 6th for a 5th etc.

for the right player I'll part with 2,3, and 4 too

Garcia's latest blog post pretty much pegs next Thursday the 26th as launch day. He also posted a few card images with salaries, which he says may or may not be final (Trout 12 mil!!!!) I suggest you check it out.

So, one week until we get started. Unless there is an issue, I'm giving us one week from card launch to have drops posted, March 5th. That should be plenty of time for everyone to review the cards online. If it's not, or there is an issue, due to vacation, work, etc PLEASE let me know.

If anyone needs a roster, please send me an e-mail and indicate which league you need as I'm sending this out to all four of my leagues.

Guys, my drop list is in. I have some good trade bait as follows:

Profar - with another year of injury time and Russell likely to get a card this year, I am going to put his name out there. If you are rebuilding & want to take a flyer on him now is the time. Looking for a card to help this year and a high prospect pick.

Taijuan Walker - will get his shot this year for sure.

Brandon Belt - a personal favorite of mine as I live in the Bay Area but he can be moved.

Tony Sipp - killer RP/closer card, one of the top 5 in the set with an .88 WHIP and 11 Ks/9. Should be a $5M card but I have Britton and Miller as LHs in the pen already. Looking for similar value RH RP or high FA pick.

Yasmani Grandal - healthy, starting job in LA, hits bombs vs RHP in this set.

Holler if you see a fit.

Available players

Avisail Garcia (RF)
Nick Castellanos (3B)
Robert Stephenson (SP prospect)
Kelvin Herrera (RP)

1st FA pick available #6 overall

Looking for a SP for this year, primarily, but will consider other offers.

Trade to report: we send Melky Cabrera to Splinter for his 7th round FA pick. Splinter will confirm & make a drop.

confirmed

Splinter drops Justin Smoak

Anyone interested in Wily Peralta for a draft pick or a prospect pick? PM me if interested

I have an abundance of OF...Cruz....Gomez...Marte.....could part with one perhaps

also nice DH platoon of McGehee and Baker

Fister Miley Burnett Deduno can all be had

need LHH...pitching perhaps...move up in draft...picks

will listen to offers

Fingers crossed I'll have roster and players available sheet done tomorrow sometime. Wouldn't be untilmage afternoon at the earliest I'd suspect. If the lSt three days/leagues are any indication. I just hope you've all made sure you've indicated what you are don't with ALL the prospects drFted in 2013 whether promoting or releasing, that's been the consistent hang up in every other leave so far.
