Moneyball Baseball League Chat

See the league page, the trade was executed . should be under transactions.

You’ll also note that the affected players accumulated stats for the destination teams

I've searched through the threads and I cannot find it. I'm on vacation and have to use my phone, so I may have missed it. If MYKBR1 would confirm the trade, I'll put it in the spreadsheet.

Mykbr and I also announced and confirmed the trade by league email sent 6/6

Okay, I’ve entered the trade into the spreadsheet.

Are we getting ready to rock and roll???...

Just finished updating and loading my other league, so Moneyball is next!

There is one decision we need to make before proceeding and that is how to conduct the supplemental FA signing period. There were a number of proposals prior to the season, and what I have decided to do is the following:

1. Free Agent bidding will be conducted in reverse order of finish based on the outcome of season 1.
2. Three free agent players will be bid upon at any given time (i.e. Teams 12, 11, and 10 make bids on three different players creating an active pool of three free agents).
3. Once a team wins a bid on a player, the next team eligible to name a player can add a free agent to the pool by making an offer (teams must make an offer on the player they are naming).
4. Teams without the salary cap or roster space available to make an offer to a free agent will have to pass when it is their turn to offer a free agent contract.
5. The supplemental free agent signing period will end when every team has filled their 40 roster slots, or when no more free agents are offered a contract 24 hours after the last player to be signed.

If this is agreeable to the league membership then we can begin announcing our drops. Remember that you are responsible for the salaries of players you drop unless another team picks up that player's contract.

FYI: SRH1200, sociophil, and oldmansmith2 do not have the salary cap space to participate in the supplemental free agent signing period.

How would the auction process work? How do we bid? At what point is a winning bid determined?

And to what are proceeding? 2019 again?

And, am I to understand that I get no opportunity to cut players to make room for salaries...that my cuts were predetermined before we played the season??
