Back to a little of the IL talk. How do you guys feel about changing something midseason? Usually I would be against changing rules on the fly however the game is meant to be fun it sounds like there may be a majority in favor of that change.

Anyone else having trouble accessing Fantrax? Not today but i had some troubles yesterday and from what I could find they had some issue that sounded like it affected mobile android users. I cleared my browser history and it took off. Not sure if you run android or ios.

Maybe the commissioner should put up a poll?

This isn't an endorsement nor is it a negative comment about a 4 IL slot just an observation. Another slot further dilutes the player pool.

^^I like that idea but as you mentioned I fear it devolves into a spreadsheet that requires tracking.
I'm down to start our own fantasy site...been tired of working for the past 25 years...

No league related but why in the F would a league knowingly and actively prevent owners from activated a player off IL and using said player on the same day? SMFH...

I just got 2 lineup lock reminder notifications at the same time, one for each league. Any one else? No but I'm pretty sure I have notifications turned off for that. FWIW the phantom league as so eloquently named by DRT has been up for about 4 or 5 days now.

WTF is going on with this league 2 thing? I just made a couple transactions that seemed maybe a little to good to be true....then noticed everyone's record was 0-0-36. Somehow I was taken to this fantasy world when I went to my team this morning instead of the regular league. Well poop...We were hoping no one saw that lol. League (2) is a test league for minors transactions, its only temporary. I'm going to to disable some stuff there so no one else makes that mistake. Please go to the original league to make your transactions. Sorry for the inconvenience it was an oversite on my part not realizing anyone would be able to see the league without an invite.

Is it just me or does it seem like we are seeing a lot of blowouts early? But it certainly isn't consistent.

I found another option that may work and be pretty close to what we have been used too. Admittedly I'm not sure how to implement in season if it was chosen but here's the concept anyways.
We create a 3rd division that is made up of our minors players, aka the farm division. There are options that would that can restrict adds/drops on those rosters and/or make the movement via commish only.
More food for thought...

I will dig into that tonight because, unless someone wants to correct me, that shouldn't happen. In theory, you could have 43 players if all roster spots and IL spots are filled. Please pay no attention to me, I'm a dumba$$. instead of clicking "submit now" I was clicking next which Fantrax then suggested I drop a player and confused me. It works as intended, I can stream my poopy pitcher LMAO LMAO LMAO

I'm open to just about anything. I have been scouring the interwebs looking for how various leagues are set up and there are so many ways out there its almost ridiculous.
One way would be to only allow true minor leaguers as minor eligible. I am personally not a fan of this as it eliminates our free will determination of when WE think we should call a player up.
Another way is for it to be "free for all" where you can move everyone freely around. The biggest negative I can see with this way was eluded to by TESL a month ago, and that is how does that potentially impact stash and streaming of pitchers. At least with this one, I can think of a mitigation option by altering the criteria for minor eligibility. If you recall, the limits were set to PA & IP after comparing those values to previous years mandatory promotions and rostered minor player's MLB service time. Maybe the limits could be reduced to lower that type of roster action.
For me I really want to hear everyone's thoughts...for my money this is the healthiest league I have ever been apart of and much of that stems from us making the league what we want to be.

Yes I say we put forth an idea to fix the minors issue and vote ASAP. I did, but it didn't get much traction. Also, while we are complaining this max roster thing is kind of a pain, is there any way to do max minors and max active roster and max IL like we had before? My 3 hurt dudes are forcing me to stay at 24 active and 13 minors to keep under the 40 player cap. I will dig into that tonight because, unless someone wants to correct me, that shouldn't happen. In theory, you could have 43 players if all roster spots and IL spots are filled.

Latest league setting change corrects the issue with undrafted players being in the player pool. aka Jack Leiter won't be eligible to be draft or picked up until he is drafted.

Anyone think we should up the amount of players we can put on IL? With COVID randomly popping up some of my players are suddenly going on IL. Annoying... My team is about dead already So much red. Come on now..."most" of those guys are at least still breathing

i wanted to include some draft picks and i didn't see a way to do that on the site, check your pm sir! Does the site provide a way to PM people? Hadn’t seen an option that allows you to message other owners. There are 2 ways as I see it. 1. Under the team header, there is an "Owner List/Send Emails" link. That opens up another page where you can select who you want to email. 2. On the home page there is the "Chat" window. Click the square with an arrow in it. That opens the chat in another window. Once there, you can highlight an owner an send an message. It will show up red to you and the person you sent it to. You can also do the chat thing if you are on mobile, it works the same way.

Try making an offer on the site... I only check this Britannica log periodically way too much going on here i wanted to include some draft picks and i didn't see a way to do that on the site, check your pm sir! Scroll to the bottom of your roster page where your draft picks are listed. To the right side of that area is a slider bar that says trade. Slide it and you can select draft picks for trade.

Sithbucknut77’s Annual NOSF Dynasty League Predictions - 2021 Edition The Baseball Team – TIG has that ho hum worker like roster, doesn’t really wow you anywhere but should be competitive most weeks. The real key for TIG to push past the .500 mark is to make some savvy moves that match up well with some high end prospects make the majors. 5. The Baseball Team – Uber talent at the top but the backend needs built up The Baseball Team 79-161 I agree with you about your observations on my roster evals- majors and minors. However on that record..... come on now. I may finish in last place in the division. No way I only win 79 games. I will transaction my life away to make sure that never happens. I hope so! I only put what the simulator spits out!

@bell-That helped quite a bit. Sure enough, I was just too stupid to figure it out. Thats what 4 years in Humboldt County will do to you......TESL knows this. I propse that for next year we discuss either adding a MI slot or changing our CI slot to just an INF slot. When we started the league, 1B and 3B seemed to be pretty loaded with 2B and SS being sort of thin. Seems that nowadays, good 1B are harder to find and quality MIs seem loaded. Just something to think about. If I had to choose, I'd probably lean towards changing the CI to and INF slot and not adding a new ACTIVE starting slot. Just trying to reduce the value of my 1B depth...
