Awesome- this article came out literally hours after the trade. Thats about how my season has gone. My thoughts were with Tatis hurt, and not knowing if he will be back this season my chances of making much of a move are done. I will not keep peralta next season and if mondesi comes back healthy next season i will keep him. He is a high SB guy and can change a category. Would i have made the trade if i saw this information, probably not, do i think it should be vetoed at this point, definitely not.

More votes to allow trade through than not so case closed.
doesn't make it any less of a disgusting trade.
it's the kind of trade that happens in a public league, and should never happen in a league like this.
to a person, everyone from outside of this league that i've asked was baffled it was allowed to go through.

I saw that mondesi article yesterday like a couple hrs after I accepted wiggs' offer. I'm not buying what that GM is saying. It looks like a roundabout way of motivating Mondesi and sending him a message before they begin contract negotiations. Honestly mondesi was my favorite keeper and his injuries this year have been such a let down. When he is on the field there's not a more entertaining player in the league just to see what he does night to night. I don't think it's a stretch to think that he could be a #1 overall fantasy player in the future if he could just stay of the IL. My first inclination was to veto the trade, especially considering that he is on the cusp of returning to action, but the deal really made sense for my team and the realization of that finally cracked through my thick skull. Hopefully both peralta and mondesi are good contributors in the future. If peralta keeps pitching like this he'll be a keeper for me, maybe replacing my kershaw keeper slot.

Willing to move Rendon for pieces that would help me this year if there is a rebuilding team similarly interested. He has struggled with injuries this year and results have lagged as a result but offers top tier talent when healthy

So, I have a dynamite bullpen as most of you know. You also know I am leaving the league after this season. Seems my hopes of getting in the money this year are dwindling, so its time to look toward next year, albeit for someone else.
I have received several offers for my closers, but think it does the league the most service to put them on the trading block and let you all bid for them.
I think Kimbrel is keeper worthy, debatable whether it makes sense to keep more than one closer.
The offered players: McGee, Melancon and Hader.
To be clear, I am only going to consider pick offers, so you needn't offer any players other than throw aways. With your offer, tell me which of the closers you want, and what pick you would give for that player. Multiple offers is kosher. You wont get a second chance, so come with your best offers.
I am going out of town tomorrow, and will be back Wednesday evening. I'll accept the trades on Thursday and likely the process will be completed by Saturday.
I cant imagine anyone would object to any of this normal activity in any keeper league. You wont be able to complain that I am favoring any manger over another. However, if you think this isn't what a departing manager should be doing, I can suggest a good psychiatrist to help you deal with your issues. ;)
Good luck this year guys.

So I'm going to hunt down Trevor Story and see how much he'll pay me never to have him on one of my fantasy teams again. Not counting the shortened 2020 season I started 2021 with him here and 2017 with him in an ribc league. His 2 worst seasons and its not even close.

Huge bummer to see a manager who knows he is not returning to a keeper league drop the 11th ranked SP (and 4th by avg stats min 5 games started) presumably because his next start was questionable over the last week of the season.

between moves like that, and the still disgusting Bauer trade, i'm seriously weighing whether or not i'm going to return to this league after this season.
that Bauer trade was so wrong and should absolutely not have been allowed, it makes me question what sort of trades it would take in this league to get one overturned.

There were only a couple votes against Bauer for Ray, correct. And even today, I'd personally rather have Bauer as a keeper option over Ray who literally just went undrafted earlier this year in most leagues and had a 6+ ERA last year.
I probably don't keep either, but if this goes away for Bauer he's got the Cy Young upside. And he did just win the first court battle when they denied a restraining order, and texts revealed she asked for the BDSM stuff. So now its a grey area of where the line is drawn. Certainly not an open/shut thing. and that is why whoever did pick him up made a good move... he's a lottery ticket.

the only people i know who thought that trade was anything but gross are in this league.
Bauer will be lucky to pitch again in the Majors. At best, it's VERY unlikely he pitches in the bigs in 2022.
texts revealed she asked for the BDSM stuff.
indeed. but that doesn't me she asked to be anally raped while passed out. in her own words "I did not consent to bruises all over my body that sent me to the hospital and having that done to me while I was unconscious."
MLB's policy on sexual abuse, etc, is very specific here:
Sexual assault refers to a range of behaviors, including a completed nonconsensual sex act, an attempted nonconsensual sex act, and/or nonconsensual sexual contact. Lack of consent is inferred when a person uses force, harassment, threat of force, threat of adverse personnel or disciplinary action, or other coercion, or when the victim is asleep, incapacitated, unconscious or legally incapable of consent.
re the restraining order, he didn't win anything. in fact, it's probably worse for him, because part of the judge's ruling basically said that any woman who sleeps with Bauer should expect injuries to occur during the act, so give then the situation, a restraining order doesn't fit the bill.
that's not good for Bauer's MLB future.
Attorney Sheryl Ring (who deals with sports related stuff said "And that’s why this case isn’t the ringing victory Bauer’s legal team would have you believe. First, a court basically just ruled that Trevor Bauer is so dangerous that any woman who sleeps with him can reasonably be expected to get physically injured. Moreover, from the evidence adduced at trial in Bauer’s own words and from the mouth of Bauer’s lawyer, Bauer punched an unconscious woman and choked a woman until she was unconscious, because she didn’t say no. Coming on the heels of the Washington Post report that Bauer threatened to kill a woman in Ohio, this is damning - not exculpatory - evidence for a violent proclivity towards women. That Bauer’s attorney attempted to say that he was only violent during sex is not a defense."

Re 210, agree 100%. Complete lack of regard for the future manager of that squad. Rodon is ranked higher than any pitcher that I have on my team. Even if the future owner of that team didn't want to keep him he would at least have trade value. Not impressed.

While I never officially said I wasn't returning in a public forum, this isn't a league I can, in good faith, return to.
I was here 16 seasons. I won two championships, and was in the top 4 six times beyond that. I've enjoyed my time here prior to this season, but I'm not so sure the league would veto a Pete Rose for Ronald Acuna trade at this point, on the basis that since he has a heartbeat, Rose could possibly make a come back.

Of. course Mr. Tax. We've got a few so will have a lottery of some sort though need to determine if that is just picking which franchise they want... or perhaps we throw all players from the open teams into a pot and you guys do a dispersal draft. You'd still get a franchise and all traded picks associated. Perhaps we make that a "pick" or one of the rounds of the draft as well. Whoever gets first pick of the player picks, gets last choice of the franchise pick. Seems fair.

Dodgers pitcher Trevor Bauer will not be criminally charged by Los Angeles prosecutors, the L.A. County District Attorney's Office said Tuesday. The ruling concludes a five-month review of the case, which stems from sexual assault allegations made against Bauer by a San Diego woman who sought a restraining order against him in June.

Anyone lurking... we've got a few teams available.
Since the new owners would be acquiring players as well as traded picks, I think the way I want to do it is a lottery with the 4 new managers. Let them pick which franchise they want (players, picks, drat slot... the whole package).

Guys, the first game of the season is like 2.5 weeks away if I'm not mistaken and we're still a few managers short. I'm just going to bow out at this point. Think I'm going to reduce my fantasy baseball activity to just one league this year. My dad passed away last August and opening day doesn't feel exciting to me, for whatever reason. Probably will just play RIBC so I don't totally lose touch with the game.

Thanks Holt. Sorry to hear about your father.
If we do get some people to step up and have a timeline I'll check back in with you one last time.
As we are a keeper league and half the draft is already "done", I think this year's unique circumstances would be fine to do a live online Yahoo draft so we could wait till the last minute with as much information as possible about players. If we don't have a batch of new managers step up, then its a moot point. Will open a thread and see what happens.
