I won't be returning this year. I hope someone can take over my team rather than just disperse all of the players.

Clive

01-21-09, 08:43 PM

I'm out too. Good luck to everyone else, and I hope the expansion team enjoys Evan Longoria.

MaximMan121 and DaSh 1 wanted in.

No problem. I think you'd be a nice addition.

01-27-09, 03:41 PM

Any idea when we'll find out if we're in or not? And, thereafter, which teams we're taking?

I'm sure you'll be in, only 7 teams returned so 5 spots are up for grabs.

Eric, I just sent the 25 dollars. Let's get this rollin :)

MaximMan121

02-02-09, 02:11 PM

Almost pitchers and catchers. When's this starting up?

ChrisRo

02-03-09, 12:15 PM

I don't know. Eric?

THEBOSS84

02-03-09, 12:17 PM

Lets draft next week!

Big_E

02-03-09, 02:58 PM

Yes, we have plenty of room for expansion teams. MaximMan121 is in...

Auction will be probably 10 days before season starts or thereabouts...see how my other leagues fall schedule-wise.

boo_427

02-07-09, 08:04 AM

I am in. You think I am going to let the last three years hold me back?

Plus I just want to see how much I can drive the price on AJ Burnett.

I hope all is well with everyone. Some of the pics I have seen from the new stadium look awesome.

Who has the best $1 keeper again? Raul Ibanez get a vote?

ChrisRo

02-08-09, 05:24 AM

Eric, did you get to renew the league?

Big_E

02-11-09, 08:01 AM

If you've received an invoice, please pay ASAP so I can renew the league!

Thanks...

Big_E

02-11-09, 12:49 PM

Welcome to MaximMan121 as a paid-up member of the league!

Big_E

02-11-09, 01:38 PM

So now that 7 people have paid (one more was free as defending champs) I have enough money to renew the league for another season! Plus, 8 is always a minimum for a decent league...

gdn

02-11-09, 10:09 PM

I didn't get an invoice yet.

Big_E

02-11-09, 10:19 PM

I didn't get an invoice yet.

you should have one now...

Snatch Catch

02-12-09, 09:21 AM

Finally paid.

We really need to recruit for this. I'd really, really, really like to have 12 teams...

THEBOSS84

02-12-09, 09:22 AM

We already have 10 teams. Are there any teams from last year that haven't gotten back to us yet? We should be able to find 2 more guys.

Big_E

02-12-09, 12:35 PM

We have 9 paid already. GDN will pay soon for 10. I invited DaSh 1 (or whatever his name is) which if he joins will make 11.

Big_E

02-12-09, 12:56 PM

Thanks to all who paid...the league has been renewed

gdn

02-12-09, 01:04 PM

paid.

Big_E

02-12-09, 01:16 PM

got it

MaximMan121

02-12-09, 07:10 PM

paid.

Wow, haven't seen you since, well, Tyler Clippard was still a fast riser in the Yanks system.

We gonna try to get a 12th? I think that would be best.

ChrisRo

02-27-09, 08:14 AM

So... anything new? When's the draft? Or the expansion draft? When do we declare keepers?

I remember last year, when I was one of the 3 new people in the league, this forum was flooded with questions and discussions about the rules. Now, complete silence.

Are we even gonna start this thing?

Big_E

02-27-09, 08:18 AM

Because people in this league are also in the other league, I want to see when their draft is, before trying to schedule this one.

Should be soon. Then work backwards for expansion draft, keepers, etc...

rodg12

03-03-09, 08:33 AM

Again, are we going to have a 12th team? That's important information for evaluating my keepers.

Big_E

03-03-09, 08:43 AM

Doesn't look like more than we already have. I have contacted some people who said they were interested but have not heard back from them.

rodg12

03-03-09, 08:54 AM

Ok, that's cool. Will prepare as if we have 11 then. Thanks.

Big_E

03-03-09, 09:09 AM

Though we have 10 paid. ;)

It's funny...I'm in an auction league were we get 4-keepers.

7 teams returning (of 8) from last year, plus 4 expansion teams. I was saying to one of the other owners (4 of us work together) that my keepers would be different if there was only 1 expansion team, rather than four. He disagreed.

I was laughing inside. Hopefully he messes up his keepers then, and it's one less person I need to worry about in 2009.

Snatch Catch

03-03-09, 12:12 PM

We really should try to get a 12th.

Snatch Catch

03-04-09, 08:00 AM

Does anyone know for sure if we have a 12th?

I think I could drum someone up if it comes down to it.

It would really behoove us to have a full league.

rodg12

03-05-09, 08:16 AM

K.

Though we have 10 paid. ;)

My bad. I guess I'll prepare as if we have 10 then.

MaximMan121

03-09-09, 10:19 AM

Are the new members taking over old teams? Or are we starting anew?

Big_E

03-09-09, 10:25 AM

Are the new members taking over old teams? Or are we starting anew?

In the past, I teams have taken over existing teams, as long as there are teams to take over. (That is, teams left, new folks came in)...If we have 10 this year, and go to 12 next year, we'd need an expansion draft.

Teams take over old teams by order joined, in order of highest finish...I have to look last year's standings up.

Snatch Catch

03-09-09, 11:04 AM

I thought we were at 11?

Big_E

03-09-09, 12:33 PM

No, 10. Been 10 for a while.

We had 11 last year; two dropped out, one came in.

Snatch Catch

03-09-09, 12:43 PM

Hmm. We really need 2 people.

NYDCYankee

03-11-09, 06:38 AM

Snatch has recruited me. I am in.

But I am leaving for Costa Rica in a few hours, so I won't be able to be involved for a week or so. I return on the 19th.

ChrisRo

03-11-09, 07:18 AM

Cool, welcome :)

Nice! One more to go...

Beware of this guy if you don't already know about him, fellas. He's a shark.

Big_E

Honestly, I would like to stop at 11. If we go to 12, we need an expansion draft, and we might not have enough time. At 11, the two new owners take over existing teams.
