I am no longer commissioner. however, the "push trades through" case was clearly overruled by most people. i had no idea yall waited to the exact minute to accept trades to account for the 24 hour period of voting. 

wish i could have helped but i am no longer involved in the decisions of this league.

um, what?

i thought you were still the commish, but that was a one-time fuck up of the trade procedures.  there is no "pushing through" of trades (just like the last 10 years of this league).  rely on espn's timeline process.  

nobody voted to oust you.  and i hate to even ask this, but...who is the commissioner if you're not?

[NOMAAA 1696]

A few trades have been pushed through I believe. Go back a few pages. What’s really awesome is derka and big o haven’t even checked in in a day. 

[NOMAAA 1696]

Also, yes. Who voted to get rid of single commish and who voted in these two guys. Not me. I vote for the new guy.

Just that one push through. My mistake.

i really don't know what i have to do with any of this. i'm not aware of any trades being pushed through besides the one. And i had no idea that Fawesome is apparently no longer the commish. also if our trade had been pushed through this morning you would have had castillo in your lineup and he gave up 2 hits and 2 ER while recording zero outs today, so good for you that we went by standard operating procedure. 

[NorthLoop 14305]

So who's the new commish, why isn't Fawesome commish anymore, and why did nobody tell us? 

[NOMAAA 1696]

What the fuck is going on. 

[Capn81 388]

I am lost. It could be the Vodka, but I do not think that is the reason.

[Fawesome 111]

I said after that trade fiasco that I would step down and the league could run itself. I’ve fucked up as commish too many times.

[henrygandorf 29201]

fine. does anyone else want to do it?  if not, i will. 

[Goo Punch 4275]

i vote for Hamiltonian.

[NOMAAA 1696]

Second for gandorf if he wants to do it. 

[NOMAAA 1696]

When do power rankings come out?

[Goo Punch 4275]

just for the record- if the commish were to push the trade between myself and nomaaa through right now then there would be no problems- the trade is going to process around 8am, and pushing a trade through in a case like that is not uncommon, and simply gives each party a bit of extra time to adjust his roster while not affecting any matchups. that is not a problem at all, whereas pushing a trade through early does affect matchups. that's the only issue. 

[Fawesome 111]

Leclerc really lefucked me today. See ya.

when eddie rosario wasn't hitting 4 bombs in 24 hours he had the likes of Dee Gordon and Lorenzo Cain picking up his HR slack. What a brutal week. 

[Goo Punch 4275]

are we still sending our money to BO?

DG has the lowest HR% of anyone with as many at bats in the league.  So yeah.  You're welcome.

[NorthLoop 14305]

ESPN keeps trying to give Boyd all the stats for the doubleheader today. 

[huge 3803]

Derka I am intrigued.  I will let you know.

[Goo Punch 4275]

I really wanted to get Gray in that deal, but you held out and remained strong. Respect. Hope it works well for both of us.

He's a dirty Sooner, we can work something out.

Let me paint a picture for you: 

-27 year old, 6 foot 1, 225 lb 2B

-played 162 games in 2016, hitting 25 HR and 28 doubles, while driving in 82 runs

-was an All Star in 2017, playing 160 games while hitting 32 HR and 35 doubles, driving in a league best 105 RBI at his position, with a .293 BA and an .843 OPS

-Was hurt throughout 2018 but still hit 20+ HR and 20+ 2B despite being traded and suffering injuries which is unusual for him

his name is Jonathan Schoop and he's for sale. I'm looking for a SP, and I have 3 closers and am willing to package a starter and a closer or any number of relievers plus Schoop for one SP. He's simply surplus to requirements for my team. Anyone who needs a 2B or who already has a 2B good enough to play UTIL come holler at me. I'll even take a lesser value player because I have no pitching and need it that bad. 

[Fawesome 111]

too tall for a 2b, he will never make it in the bigs.

tell it again!

[Goo Punch 4275]

henrygndorf tried to downplay the accomplishments and straight clout of my surplus second baseman. bro. i looked him dead in his eyes...and i said bbbbiiieeetttccchhhhh

 

The offer will still be good three weeks from now when Schoop's PR15 is above 10.0. and HG has already added two new 2B. #isaidbiiieeettccchhh

[NorthLoop 14305]

Is 3/31 good?

I've gotta be pretty close to that.  Luckily my ERA/WHIP is making up for it

[huge 3803]

I have three 2bs but still want to trade you Gray.

if schoop is so good and you can't get a good return, then you should keep him and try to moove moose instead.

Nobody here appreciates Moose like I do. He's all mine. ❤️

no, it most certainly is not, particularly with who all i have offensively. i had realmuto, freddie freeman. jose ramirez, vladdy jr, xander boagerts, moose, piscotty, and eddie rosario combine to go 1/26 yesterday. just...how? hope that means i'm in for a big day today 

[Capn81 388]

I managed to go 3/34 yesterday. At least one was a homerun, I guess.

[Armin Tamzarian 58]

who the fuck is the commissioner please push my trade through I am pleading with you I want to set my lineup

[Armin Tamzarian 58]

i implore you!

Another shot for Moose. That's makes 8 bombs in 26 games. Is that good for a 2B?

your boyfriend just hit one into the upper tank in the astros game.

465+

[Goo Punch 4275]

it's bombs away for my 2B overflow. if we have any other living, breathing managers in this league, y'all can feel free to inquire about trading for either one of these future first ballot HOF studs. 

[Goo Punch 4275]

also he's not my boyfriend. we're keeping it cazsh.
