Kevin - Evas 7:18 AM
I am thinking about moving my closer Montoya. Off the charts stuff with decent movement and control. He would be ideally suited in a park less prone to home runs for left-handed hitters.

Garza, You, Moreno, Miyata, Lightbody all can be had this off-season. Also I have plenty of TOP CF prospects (not Ohanti or Guzman) available. I'll be in and out of the meetings.
Ken - Farstriders 9:11 AM
The Florida delegation has arrived. Strategically behind the Bakersfield table this year.

We're primarily looking at moving a major league arm and/or catcher (roberto jimenez, foppe ros, gilberto zamora). We're looking for draft picks/prospects. Cash is available to even out deals.

@Rory - Thoroughbreds 1 more than me.

Bummer @Scott-Duluth. How'd he pitch?
Scott-Duluth 9:23 AM
A shortstop closer but forced to start at tournament time. 2nd time through order gave up first hit followed by walk, 2 run triple, 2 run homer. Went 4. Too many breaking balls up in the zone.College SS but not College P’er don’t think. Great year for the 14 man roster.
Hopkins, MN has a nice team.
Ken - Farstriders 9:23 AM
thats why we got those shinguards, @Greg - Alleghenies

Greg - Alleghenies 9:25 AM
@Scott-Duluth He needed to face me. Anything above my waist I couldn't hit. But if it was in the dirt I would still be hitting it LOL
9:25
I probably used a bat just a tad bit heavy and big for me.
9:26
But if it was good enough for Sal Bando it was good enough for me!!!

@Andy - Fishermen I need you buddy! Let’s trade!
Greg - Alleghenies 9:27 AM
@Michael - WIL Hitmen They should let me trade for the other WIL teams, I'd definitely make lots of trades with you
Michael - WIL Hitmen 9:28 AM
I’m almost out of trade pieces after my first couple trades already. I got a few more in the tank though
Dan - Ghosts 9:32 AM
That's a real downside of the WIL - you can only do so much tinkering before you're just done.
Michael - WIL Hitmen 9:33 AM
@Dan - Ghosts yup, you run out of pieces and picks unless you plan to strip the whole organization bare
9:34
Having a 50 man reserve and mostly useless pieces stored there is not much help. But it been a fun challenge
Dan - Ghosts 9:34 AM
Even then, the opportunity runs dry quickly. Have you been able to work with @Andy - Fishermen at all on trades?
Dylan - Wind Dancers 9:36 AM
@channel Any trades should be sent to me via slack. Once they are announced, then you can post them in the trades section on the forums.
Dan - Ghosts 9:36 AM
@Dylan - Wind Dancers Do you want them also sent via PM in the forums, or is that unnecessary?
Dylan - Wind Dancers 9:37 AM
Nah you don't need to send them to me on the forums.

Today, we have a variety of things to discuss, but as we know, this is a day where trades go wild – we already have a number on the stove – so let us go through the trade protocol for today’s event – it’ll be a little different that tradition, as Dylan has already pointed out…

Contrary to an earlier post, when you have agreed to a trade, please group Dylan, me and the GM you are trading with in a Slack message detailing the trade. The other GM will be required to confirm said trade, for it to be formalized and processed.
Michael - WIL Hitmen 10:24 AM
@Scott - Zephyrs does he lean heavily to one side? Hitter or pitcher? That is usually the case

Last reply 2 days agoView thread
Mike - Borealis 10:25 AM
Once the trade has been announced to the group you and your trade partner will need to post and confirm in the forum’s ‘Completed Trade’ thread…
3
10:25
AND… Please be sure to format your trade announcement properly, with the players noted position and organizational level (minor leagues) – it makes processing the trades far easier. Some folks tend to be a bit lazy on this part. Thank You.

As is traditions we pretend to know what will happen each season... and predict the positions of the divisional results; award winners and playoff results... Thank you all for participating. I will after WM put up the new thread for the 2034 predictions. Scoring is like the silly game of golf - lowest score wins. Scoring Rules:
+1 point for each standings position you're off by
-1 point for each postseason series winner correctly identified
-1 point for correctly guessing the number of games team advance a postseason series (do not need the losing team accurate)
-1 point for getting the PEC winner
-0.5 points for identifying an end of season award winner
10:35

The Office of the Commissioner would like to make a Public Service Reminder:
10:45
When it comes to offering contract extensions to your players, please be advised to refer to the Constitution regarding contract rules. The most commonly violated rule is the following:
10:45
2) Extensions to players with fewer than six years of PEBA ML service time cannot exceed two years in length and must be greater than or equal to the previous years salary, with the one exception being the 5-6 Rule.

Regarding the 2035 expansion, New Jersey will be joining the Seaboard Division, while Gloucester will return home – sort of, to the Trans Atlantic Division…
11:26
Fun Fact:

Perhaps the older GMs already knew – according to the current League file, the original division name was the ‘PAN’ Atlantic – and it was up until the PEBA-LRS merger! Goes to show you what this ol’ SL GM knows…
