Who has an extra 1B? Scrappy’s boy Yuli is killing me. 

we have 4. 

ok - so i woke up to this trade - some wires obviously got crossed.  we're not trying to trade 3 healthy hitters (shit as they may be) for two injured pitchers.  there were apparently 1 (or more) hitters supposedly coming back, but the app can be a little wonky on trades.

for all i know, this may have been ambien (or something) induced, but we would like it rescinded if possible.

please do what you can to reverse it, and we'll be more careful in the future.

apologies, @VolenteHawk

thanks @txhorns

I will check tonight and see if I can override it.  In the meantime everyone just vote no on it.

I had already voted yes this morning. Not sure I can revote

you should just be able to manually cancel it when you're in front of your computer.  votes shouldn't matter.

yeah, this is my bad guys. i'm the one who sent the offer, and i definitely wasn't trying to send three healthy guys for two injured guys. hopefully the other offers i sent will kind of show that this isn't what i was going for. ive sent a lot of shitty offers in my time, but this is a first. apologies for that.

Cool, I'll peck around tomorrow if the immortal Owen Miller goes anything less than 4-4. 

And of course he died before ever getting an AB for me.

Voted yes earlier as well. For the record, two sides agree makes it sound like a completed trade occurred. Sounds like one partner on a two man team didn’t like the deal after it was completed. Don’t know that I’ve seen one get canceled after the fact.

If we didn’t up it last year when I lost 5 of my top 6 draft picks to injuries we damn sure aren’t upping it this year.

if that's what the league feels needs to be done, that's obviously the way it'll go.  you guys decide.

I don’t have any problem reversing it if both teams want to.

Also what it sounds like to me, but for the record I'm an "all trades go through unless there is collusion" guy...so I'm admittedly strongly biased to not reversing.

I'll ultimately abide by what the league decides, of course.

 

@Henry Hill, I wasn’t mad at your trade, just happened to first see it whilst boozing. Shit happens like my shadow_op bro knows.

I’m in fucking 9th, so I’ll revisit. Thought my offense was gonna be fine, they are fucking me sideways. 

It's been a few years since I've done fantasy baseball. In football you can overreact to everything and lots of times it works out just fine. I forgot that in baseball I just have to sit here and watch my dudes all OPS .350 for the entire month of April.

This is the worst start to a season I think I’ve had. This team sucks top to bottom at the moment.

Had to sit one of Woodruff/Sevy/Bassitt

why?

My team is 7/67 so far over the past 2 days.

That seems bad

Fantasy is more fucked than usual this year with the ball fuckery and whatever else is going on.

Had to sit one of Woodruff/Sevy/Bassitt, chose poorly. 

we sent you 2 different trades.  you turned one down right away but the other is still sitting there.  just a heads up.

The past two years with injuries is just stupid.  

My latest fun one is Haniger being out like 2 weeks with COVID then comes back finally, goes 1-1 and fucks up his ankle.  Now on 10 day IL.   So I go pick up Kyle Garlick.....he starts yesterday for my first game with him and he goes 1-1 and fucks up his calf and is now DTD at this point.  

I will give you fucking credit for Garlick in the first place, he was a target of mine as a Ranger fan long before Roto. 
 

And my team fucking sucks donkey.

I need a hitter with 1B eligibility if anyone is selling

I have lots of 1B eligibility, but I may need you to define "hitter".

 

I posted it on the league message board awhile back.

we are always down to clown.  especially last season when our team name was down to clown.

whenever we send out trade offers and there's no response it's hard to know if it's being "rejected" or if it's just unseen. i'd ask that anyone who receives an offer from us that they don't like to reject the offer so that we can move on to tiger trade offers, please and thank you. 🙏🏼
