[Nero Cain]

Monday, March 19th too.

[Aronis]

I should be available some Monday evening. As far as the keeper goes, I'd be okay being at a slight disadvantage, it shouldn't be a big deal?

[D3f3nd3r]

Works for me, I think (either of those days that is).

[AGar]

I can't do auction that day.

[AGar]

Monday evening I can. Pages are hard.

[AGar]

Also I don't like the idea of growing the keeper league exponentially. We carry deeper rosters in the keeper league, its going to really thin the talent pool available. We've been doing keeper since 2011 or 2012, it'd be nice if we got some input before we just blow out a league we've put some serious time into.

[Kmd4390]

We could do an auction draft Sunday the 25th. Only Aronis/Locke have indicated the can't come and have not heard from DGB/Zor. Haven't given Sharon the When is good but will pm her about the time.

2 drafts 1 weekend?

I can do that. Sharon can't unless it's early in the day. 19th is the same thing.

I see your argument, but I don't think stretching it to 12 would be a bad idea. I just wish we would do it the same way we added Bert's team a few years back, by giving him free reign over the rest of the players not kept by everyone else if he wants to keep anyone. I also wish we could have done it a little more gradually.

[Nero Cain]

I think if we expanded the keeper league we'd have to have smaller benches, like the same size in H2H...what 5 or 6 bench? I'm good with whatever though. If we were going to try to do a Monday the 19th draft we have got to HURRY.

[TwoInAMillion]

I am available any evening.

[D3f3nd3r]

I'd much rather not change the roster sizes for the Roto league.

[Nero Cain]

Thats fine, if TIAM wants to replace into Zacks spot he can. Someone else will have to commish it then and I'll stick to H2H.

[AGar]

We run C, 1B, 2B, SS, 3B, 5x OF, CI, MI, UTIL, 3x SP, 2x RP, 4x P, 6x BN. That won't work with more than 10.

Also, unless someone has the auction list with prices from last year, we need more time than next Monday for selecting keepers.

Zor, do you have all that info?

[D3f3nd3r]

Auction Cost column was the prices for last year, so keeper prices are that plus five bucks.

[TwoInAMillion]

For the keeper league I assume the old coaches get their keeper slots from last year? How are the new coaches getting a competitive team?

[D3f3nd3r]

I was suggesting that once we take all our keepers at their draft prices plus five bucks, or any players that were on our teams but were undrafted at five bucks, the new managers get free reign over all unkept players at their draft prices plus three bucks, or any players that were undrafted for four bucks.

That's what we did in 2015 when we added Bert.

Also, loads of players don't get kept. I'd be damned if Trout gets kept for $81.

[AGar]

We each have gotten 6 players in the past.

Also, were those our final rosters last season? I honestly don't remember what my end of season team looked like other than Machado is still dumb cheap.

That is the final rosters, yep. Ok cool.

[Nero Cain]

So what are we doing here? Am I going to join the keeper league and commish it or do you guys want to keep it at 9 and TIAM takes over Zacks team? Or do both me and TIAM join? or if Sharon wants to play she can have my spot.

At any rate, I'm going to send out a pm asking for the keepers just so things can start getting organized here. Sorry everythings been so hectic and last minute.

Aso H2H is a go, just gotta check the schedule.

I think that's all gravy.

In my personal opinion, the keeper roster is way too large and should be downsized to grown the league but, like if I'm commish I'm not going to do that unless it's a unanimous decision so we'll keep it @ 9 or 10 this year.

[Locke Lamora]

Agree with D3f, let's just do what we did with Bert. Happy to add a team. Also happy to commish if you're not in the league/don't want to do both, Nero. Do we have a keeper deadline?

[D3f3nd3r]

We’re gonna go back to a 10 person league, right? Just want to know for purposes of figuring out player values.

[Kmd4390]

Is there a deadline for keepers?

[AGar]

10 people is fine by me.

We need a deadline for keepers, then a deadline for the new teams to select their keepers, then an auction date.

[Nero Cain]

Auction draft should be Sunday, March 25th @ 8cst/9 est. All* can make it save for Locke. Idk about Zor and DGB though.

Zor should give someone that's already in the league commish and then they can invite me/TIAM.

I'm thinking the deadline for keepers is like the 22nd? That's a week. It'll take me like just a min to do keepers so I'm not all that worried about my deadline.

@

TIAM

If thier deadline is the 22nd that gives you two days to do your keepers. Is that too little time for you?

[Nero Cain]

Or I guess one of me/TIAM is taking over Zacks team so I guess TIAM wouldn't need the second deadline. Just me.
