Around SBN: Raiders' GM Begins The Purge

BMO update

We are starting on Friday. I am going to unpause simulations around midnight Thursday night/Friday morning, so that's when we will start.

Up until Firday, we will be making pre-season trades, and free-agent bids in the sub forums of this Main Forum

Available teams are FLA, NYM(?), and CHC (it's a non LL member in control of CHC and I think NYM right now, and LL members take precedence.)

I'm going to post who is with what team on here to make sure we are filled with LL members instead of random BMO players I didn't notice.

Arizona: Goose
Atlanta: Matthew
Baltimore: aestivalis
Boston: CoachOwens
Chicago N:
Chicago A:
Cincinnati: ejo
Cleveland: Sec 108
Colorado: ConorGlassey
Detroit: seattlebruin
Florida: Slurvey
Houston: Mbad
Kansas City: rlintott
Los Angeles A: Nuss
Los Angeles N: thewyrm
Milwaukee: Fin
Minnesota: tootthekazoo
New York N:
New York A: gborish
Oakland:
Philadelphia: Gomez
Pittsburgh: ness
San Diego: Garces
San Francisco: Robert
Seattle: BrettJMiller
St Louis: acblue
Tampa Bay: Taylor H
Texas: jhmoore
Toronto: kharbaugh
Washington: fuzz

So basically, if I didn't list your name, I didn't recogonize the name you were using for BMO, and what corresponding LL name it was. Let me know and I'll update the list. If we've really just got this many non-LL players in the league, we may have to delay start time until Saturday? Give me feedback and claim some teams, fuckers.

I'm Mbad

I’m playing as Houston, and I don’t post here all that often, but I’ve been a lurker for almost 2 years now. I’m really busy wrapping things up (moving out of college and heading home tomorrow for the summer) but I’ll try to be as active as possible when this thing starts up.

Put you on the list.

I'd love to give this a shot and I guess I would take Florida.

Nick S → N S → ness. Brilliant, really. I am looking forward to losing to all of you for many years to come.

Same here

Glad to hear it’s not a “work blocking it” problem. I was worried by the “could not connect” that it could be some weird filter.

Another question since I can't remember where it was posted,

but how much time do we have to set our rosters after Free Agency closes at midnight tonight?

by Sec 108 on May 21, 2009 8:46 AM PDT reply actions  

That's what I thought, thanks.

I’m an early to bed early to rise guy so I wanted to make sure It didn’t start at 3am or some other crazy ass time since Brett never sleeps.

by Sec 108 on May 21, 2009 9:33 AM PDT up reply actions  

It shouldn't be too much of a problem for you then.

I’m more interested as to see where all the free agents head off to

I went through the teams and found the 27 of the 30 teams are well over budget

Just an interesting thing I thought that I’d put out there

Hopefully you can make it up in revenue over the season

I’m starting ~$10M under my budget

by Fuzz on May 21, 2009 10:05 AM PDT up reply actions  

I've come to terms that my budget isn't getting balanced until 2010.

I’ve got like $45M in payroll coming off after 2009.

Also, if you’re interested in Longo, I’d happily give you the higher rater and bargain value Miggy Cabrera instead.

by seattlebruin on May 21, 2009 10:44 AM PDT up reply actions  

I'll take a look at that when BMO comes back online

I don't care how well he does for the M's...FUCK ENDY CHAVEZ

by Fuzz on May 21, 2009 10:51 AM PDT up reply actions  

Holy balls!!!

Miggy is only being paid $1.69M for the next 6 seasons?!?! Under team control for 2 more years than Longo and $1M less??? I’m willing to open trade talks

I don't care how well he does for the M's...FUCK ENDY CHAVEZ

by Fuzz on May 21, 2009 11:13 AM PDT up reply actions  

I have actually trimmed payroll from where I started.

But I have offered contracts to Manny, Orlando Hudson, and Nomar Garciapara. That trio would put me about $22 million over budget.

Fear the NPE

by thewyrm on May 21, 2009 9:55 AM PDT up reply actions  

How realistic is this sim?

Because with all y’all so far over budget, I want to be Jeffrey Loria and just suck up all your luxury tax payments and field a collection of junk and get RICH RICH RICH!

Nice Guys Finish Third - My semantics are a waste of time.

by pdb on May 21, 2009 10:20 AM PDT up reply actions  

I'm just under 3 milion over

And Giles comes off the books this year. I should be solid.

Of course, I had to dump half of my rotation.

by Garces on May 21, 2009 12:46 PM PDT up reply actions  

Oh, shit.

I have 18 million coming off the books in Giles and Jose Guillen.

Nice work, me!

Anyone else having trouble in the forum?

Now when I go to reply I get a dinosaur .gif and a 404 error.

You need OF help, eh?

In the form of a prospect or a win-now guy

I don't care how well he does for the M's...FUCK ENDY CHAVEZ

by Fuzz on May 21, 2009 12:43 PM PDT up reply actions  

Actually, I don't really NEED the help per se

But there were some options that looked pretty interesting to me out there.

by Robert Lintott on May 21, 2009 12:45 PM PDT up reply actions  

How about this

My Roger Bernadina (74++) for your Mario Lisson (67+++) straight up

I don't care how well he does for the M's...FUCK ENDY CHAVEZ

by Fuzz on May 21, 2009 12:47 PM PDT up reply actions  

Dammit that's tempting

But I’ve got no real 3B depth in my farm system, so I don’t think I can give Lisson up. Is there anything else you’d take for Bernadina?

by Robert Lintott on May 21, 2009 12:54 PM PDT up reply actions  

I'll get back to you on that

I don't care how well he does for the M's...FUCK ENDY CHAVEZ

You're 4-1 and in 1st place right now.

Unfortunately Wainwright is out for 3 weeks with, of all things, a chipped knee cap.

by EJO on May 22, 2009 11:57 AM PDT up reply actions  

You also missed your opportunity to trade for Dontrelle Willis

however, I still have Brandon Lyon and Jarrod Washburn available!

by seattlebruin on May 22, 2009 12:21 PM PDT up reply actions  

I'm 7-3.

Anyone want one of my excess SP prospects? They just keep coming and coming.

by .Taylor on May 22, 2009 1:46 PM PDT up reply actions  

Definitely, depending on who you would be looking to move.

I’ll right you a more detailed message on the league board

by EJO on May 22, 2009 2:19 PM PDT up reply actions  

Hurray for a team BA of .233

So I just took the Chicago White Sox.

Hopefully that’s alright.

That rocks joof! Welcome to the AL Central.

Tootthekazoo and Seattlebruin are both in that division too. We have our own smack talking thread.
