Metal Sludge Gossip Board

Renewed the yahoo league. If you played last year you should have gotten an email inviting you back. If you did not let me know. PM Me.

If you want to join in the fun this year let me know. Send me a PM and I'll set the invite up through yahoo. I'll find out how many spot we have and first come first in.

DON'T PLAY UNLESS YOU PLAN ON KEEPING UP WITH YOUR TEAM ALL YEAR.

Im in.

PKOSSSSSSSS where are you?

This is the year.

You're goin' down.

I'm in.
Can I suggest this year hat once numbers are sorted we have a playoffs that is half of less of the league. 8/12 doesn't really reward a good season. 6/12 with a first round bye for the top two teams is cooler/more realistic IMO.

Good call. Remind me once we get the number of teams sorted out.

Three things are constant in life: death, taxes and Killeverything's annual whuppin' in fantasy baseball.

Looking for 3 more teams. PM me if you are interested in playing. The one thing that we ask is that you keep up with your team the whole season.

I think I've got a non-sludger who might be interested if you get stuck for somebody (Crimson Haybailers who have been in the league a few years were my last recruits).

Cubs fan?

When are we setting the draft to run?

We need a couple if weeks for waiver acquisitions and trades.

Last I checked we needed one more player for an even number of teams - but 3 more would be ideal.

Let's pick a date so we know when to do our pre-rankings by.

I'll set the draft to run as soon as we get a 12th player. I will probably set it to run 1 week before the start of the season. That should allow enough time to make any moves and avoid most spring training injuries.

Any changes suggested beside the amount of teams going into the playoffs?

We need one more player. Anyone interested PM me.

Got a guy. Sent you a PM.

WhiteHouseSubsAC wrote:Got a guy. Sent you a PM.

PM me the email address of the guy.

Still need one more. There has got to one sludger who wants to play. Come on. PM me your email address and get in.

I gave you the address. Still hasn't received an invite.

WhiteHouseSubsAC wrote:I gave you the address. Still hasn't received an invite.

Never got it. Last message from you was that you were working on it and would send it.

Pm it to me again. As soon as I get it I will send the invite.

Thank you.

Is the draft set to run? On the mobile app it says "draft not scheduled". Not sure if that's because it's an Auto-Pick draft, or because it's not set to draft yet.

Let's get this done. I want to meet this year's Canuckle Balls!

I set it to run last night. It can take up to 72 hours before it actually drafts. Better set your pre-rankings before it runs.

It's showing "not set" on mine as well.

Draft ran last night.

I have some GM work to do before I'm happy with my Canuckle Balls.

Right off the bat, I'm too deep at 1B (Abreu, Adrian Gonzalez, Duda). If someone doesn't have a viable option at 1B, I'd consider trading any one of them. Looking for a quality SP, maybe an OF, or a guy who can play multiple positions productively.

I've got some multiple position depth. Let me take a look.

This year in both the leagues I play in I switched getting King Felix for Miguel Cabrera. This better fucking work. I'm also expecting both Matt Cain and Tim Lincecum to have bounce back seasons ( Lincecum not a Cy Young contender though ). Also Brandon Belt is supposed to become another Will Clark. That better happen too. Goddamnit.

You're going down, PKOS.

If I can defeat the Mighty PKOS I'm going to next set my sights on WOLF.

Start hugging your pillow pal, it's going to be hard and deep. Then I'll let Wolf smack you around.

I might be down for some trades later. I wanna see how my team performs first. I decided to draft differently this year since how I previously always have has failed horribly ( shut up, PKOS! ).

NOBODY wants a productive bat like Adrian Gonzalez or Lucas Duda. WTF people? Don't be a pussy, let's wheel and deal!

Opening Day!

So far, I'm 1/19 with an 8. 6 era.

While they would fit nicely in my lineup with Bautista and Encarnacion, there are some practical problems I'd have to overcome.
