You're off by at least one. Looks like MOY competition will be ridiculous this draft - at least 9, maybe 11 or 12 going MOY route? BIG looks like free money ... I think Fleming already has turned a profit.Glenneration X wrote:OK then, I will predict here the strategies of this year's participants.

2. Glenn Lowy ♦ Will challenge Doughy/Roger for least spent.
One thing is for sure is that this will never happen. top 2 spender for sure. will try and make sure Fleming don't out spend him but probably will fail.

Re: The Contract League 2014 (MLBC) - SOLD OUT
Champ, I will admit discipline is not my strength. However, I've now proven to myself that I can win this league with a spending strategy. Now the challenge becomes winning yet again from an MOY position.Bama wrote:2. Glenn Lowy ♦ Will challenge Doughy/Roger for least spent.

Therefore, I will not spend over $5 on any one player this year.....book it Dano. Ummm, well maybe $6. Then again, once you're willing to spend $6, $7 is not that far a cry from $6. And seriously, when you think about it, $8 is really not that much more. And $9.... Ahhh damnit, time to apply for yet another mortgage on the house.

Tom will be running draft slots tomorrow ! Then the real plotting can begin.
Someone is about to lose 40% of their season FAAB, and it will be well worth it.

PS - We were willing to go up to 50% for trout. If we get him, it will be like when I was a kid and opened my Christmas presents to find Mike Tyson's PunchoutKJ Duke wrote: Someone is about to lose 40% of their season FAAB, and it will be well worth it.

Haven't heard back from Tom on exactly when ...

Re: The Contract League 2014 (MLBC) - SOLD OUT
... for an extra 2 bills you can have Miggy and save all that FAAB for June call-ups. I'd spend those Pausma dollars like a sauced Fleming!Gekko wrote:PS - We were willing to go up to 50% for trout.

Re: The Contract League 2014 (MLBC) - SOLD OUT
We KDS'd 15, 14, 13, etc.
We're looking for the extra $400 of FAAB.
It was written in the rules, but it was implied...

Re: The Contract League 2014 (MLBC) - SOLD OUT
In most cases Faab is spent on non impact players or simply used to vastly overbid. In this case you know u are getting the best player for the lowest dollar amount possible. 400 Faab is nothing IMOAndo wrote:KDS Day, baby. Let this hoarder of FAAB $ in this league blow 4 bones this morning!

Re: The Contract League 2014 (MLBC) - SOLD OUT
Perhaps we need to attack this issue in another direction. Tom, do we need to have Jessica get all Dark Angel on your a**?
