Hey all, I'm Jake. I'm taking over the Arsenal franchise. With any luck, I'll have this ship turned around within ten short years. Anyone who is in the market for a decent starter (Ryu, Morton, Gausma

From the week one round up: "No Dynasty for Old Men were saving like they grew up in the depression, notching ten overall."

We actually both wanted to go a different route. But no ####### way we could pass up the shtick of both top picks being yours

We will trade Matt Carpenter for a bag of balls if anyone wants to roll the dice.  He needs a change of scenery from us for sure.  O's "closer" Givens can also be had for slightly more.  He should get 5-10 more saves down the stretch.

Eephus can you change my league title "High and tight" to Pik95 on the site? That was a stupid name. 

Still up for a deal contenders.  Send offers.

CBS doesn't allow retroactive changing of old team names.  The titles and stats still show up for pik95 on the http://sb-uber.baseball.cbssports.com/history pages.

High and Tight was an improvement over "I bought sunglasses from a paligimist!"

Rosters will be frozen on Saturday October 5.  This will give time for end of season drops to cycle through waivers.

 

Thanks guys!  

 

Does the above mean we are free to make unrelated add/drops right now or no?

Add/drops are open until Saturday Oct 4.  Off-season trades are allowed.

No season 13 rule changes assuming no stable ownership.  Teams will protect 25 players for the four round competitive balance mini draft.  Unprotected players will enter the draft pool along with the 2019 draft class and international free agents, CBS free agents and the rest of the baseball universe.

Congrats @cheese on the title, and also to @HellToupee and @Doctor Detroit for cashing. Unless I hear otherwise in the next week, I will send winnings back to the PayPal addresses the entry fees came from and deduct the $50 to roll you in for next year.

Seems like ancient history now, but the franchise currently known as Cheese was the first one in this league to undergo a total teardown and have a roster of mostly minor leaguers under boubucarow. It took two managers and almost a decade but it's cool to see that process culminate in a title. Gives hope to others undergoing long rebuilds.

Boubucarow bottomed out with 19 points in 2011 (13 team league) before beginning a slow climb up the standings.

He got 33 points in 2012, 44 in 2013, 64.5 in 2014 and 96.5 in 2015 (3rd place) before handing the keys to Cheese.

Year one of my rebuild went slightly better than expected. My offense scored an above-average number of points despite leaving holes in the lineup for the first month or two and never having much of a bench. With no hitters over 30 and a lot of top prospects on the way, I feel good about my bats.

As for pitching, in theory I like what I've got, but who the hell knows with young arms. Also don't have any closers. Might be more than a year away from doing damage on that side.

What you said is fine for mine. 

 

No question a lot of my core came from that Boubucarow tear down.

@Eephus

Short answer:  best league ever

Long answer:  Dynasty league on CBS with 40 man rosters  and no keeper limits, i.e. you can retain players forever.  5x5 roto with OBP instead of AVG.  Daily lineups (CA, 1B, 2B, 3B, SS, CI, MI, 4xOF, 2xUT, 9xP).  Lots of transactions.  Minor league prospects can be rostered beginning the year after signing pro contract.  Annual four-round minidraft in February of first year players and players left unprotected by their current fantasy teams (can protect 25 and can lose 3 at most).

ETA:  we use pitcher W instead of QS or some other made up category.

2020 bump.

It's time to start thinking about your 25-man protected lists for the competitive balance minidraft.  We started the draft last year a couple days after the Super Bowl.

Explanation please

More drafting = more fun.  in February we hold a four round (non-snake) minidraft in reverse order of the previous year's standings.  I believe you'll be picking ninth. 

Every team gets to protect 25 players from their 40 man rosters.  The unprotected players are added to the draft pool along with CBS FAs (including first year players from the 2019 MLB draft and international signing period) and amateur/international FAs.   This is the only opportunity to roster the latter until next year's draft.

Teams can only lose three unprotected players.  There's no need to drop a player from your 40 man roster when you make your pick.  We'll all cut back to 40 before the iniitial waivers run.

Last year's proceedings happened around page 63 of this thread.

The last few spots on the protected list can be the toughest decisions you make all year.

 

ETA:  except for deciding which crap closers to chase
