Re: Line-Ups and settings
That is an interesting take on the usage between the mobile app and desktop computer type systems. I do all of the important type stuff like Setting Lineups and FAAB work on the laptop on a daily basis. I use the mobile app to follow live scoring and any last minute lineup changes that need to be m...

Re: Line-Ups and settings
The lock icon should be there soon if it’s not there already. The Save button will be added to the bottom of Set Lineup. We apologize for the four teams that didn’t play still being locked today. Our program locks all pitchers on Fridays and it would be tough to change that for this one exception. ...

Re: Line-Ups and settings
Agree with John, the 'lock' icon is missing from all players this year. Also, when hitting 'Save] for lineups, a message appears that we have had success IN saving the lineup, then have to hit x to start another lineup. Can the 'Success' notification just be an alert that fades without us having to...

Re: Suggestion: Free Agents
We manually over rode our stat providers' team designation today on many of the current Free Agents who are being drafted in the NFBC. They should show FA right now. As soon as they sign with a new team, the stat provider will over ride our FA designation. Thanks for the suggestion. That was easy, ...

Grounding of 737 MAX 8 Flights
So we don't have expected high winds in Vegas for draft weekend, but we don have a travel advisory regarding specific 737 MAX 8 flights.
Southwest seems pretty busy, had a 119 minute wait to talk to someone.

Re: Hot Stove
There is one aspect to all of this, however, that depresses me. Look at the big activity we've had so far. Thus, before we get to Spring Training, I count about half of the teams as having no chance to win, and who seemingly are in or on the verge of a rebuild, or who just tread water content to be...

Re: Hot Stove
I am not in love with Philly signing McCutchen. If having a lot of money to spend, 50 million on an aging player would not be where I'd start with the signing of players. Philly could be thinking that if missing out on the Harper 'sweepstakes' that they'll still have 'a guy' for the outfield. With ...

Thus, before we get to Spring Training, I count about half of the teams as having no chance to win, and who seemingly are in or on the verge of a rebuild, or who just tread water content to be mediocre.

Re: Hot Stove
As for Corbin, it is amazing how a guy can make so much money by being so inconsistent, Still, he had a good year on his contract year. That means a lot in this day and age. I believe Corbin will pitch more like Strasburg and not like Scherzer for the Nationals. Strasburg has never been the pitcher...

Re: Modern Day Drafting
I love drafting. Maybe even more than the pursuit of trying to win a league. You may laugh. But, I know a fella that drafted almost 30 NFBC teams last year, then tried to do minimal work in in-season management, lineups and FAAB. THAT is a guy who likes drafting more than any other part of our hobb...

Re: Hot Stove
The Cano/Diaz deal is great for the Mariners. I personally wouldn't want to trade Bruce, he is a useful at bat and has a manageable contract at $13 million for the next two years and can play OF/1B. Which they will need once they trade Haniger. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: The selling of Segura is ...

Re: Modern Day Drafting
The other day while drafting, a drafter selected Whit Merrifield and told the league" Trea Turner Lite!" I responded, "Nope, Trea Turner... period" Over the last two years, Merrifield has over 100 more at bats, but look at this comp. These are the last two year statistics of Turner and Merrifield. ...

How does Jeter do that trade without DEMANDING Gleybar Torres? At least get Clint Frazier in the deal. He has no chance of playing in New York now, right? What was the hurry to unload Stanton, Jeets?

I miss the manager with fire. I miss the tirades. Now most of the time its holding a finger up signify "wait, we are reviewing the play."
