TJ surgery is most certainly not end of career, many pitchers come back even better. Its too bad Chris Carpenter's career was over though. Oh, wait.

 

Anyway, ok, I'll make an executive decision while reserving the right to change my mind if enough people bitch about it. I figure since your not just keeping the injured player, it puts Liriano back on the market for anyone who wants to keep him for the long term like next season. I'll allow you to swap.

 

Now, SP made another suggestion regarding the new managers. Since, the 2 new manager's are essentially taking over for the departing two, and since we've found the final rosters from last season, that their preliminary Keeper draft would be limited to the rosters of those 2 teams (I wouldn't designate one team to each manager because there's no fair way to do that). What does everyone think of that idea. I like it, I must say, so again, unless there is much bitching, I'll say that's the way we do it.

Drafting from the two teams sounds fair to me.

 

I don't have a real issue with him changing his Keeper, but I will say that his injury was well known during last season and it typically takes over a year to come back from.

Not counting me and Stephen there are 18 other managers. It will probably take me a couple more days to get all the info together in terms of preparing for the draft, so if before then 10 managers post here or PM me to officially disapprove of allowing the keeper swap, I'll veto my original decision. If less then a majority of manage's bitch though, it will be sustained. I'm for the people.

Fantasy baseball is a disease.

 

Baseball and Football aren't a disease, but if you're playing Fantasy hockey, or Fantasy Golf, or Fantasy NASCAR then you have a problem..

No, they're all shit. It makes people fret about individual achievements instead of wins and losses, which are supposed to really matter. Plus you get weird statements like

 

"man, I hope the Cubs win today, but I hope they make sure Jeff Suppan gets six good innings first."

 

"YEAH T.O.!" "You hate the Cowboys" "He's on my fantasy team"

Could you continue this in another thread?

I'm still standing!

 

But yeah, I guess I'd better go express my displeasure with fantasy baseball in a thread other than "TSM Fantasy Baseball."

OK, I've compiled the list of players on jWeeper and Wart's final rosters that will be up for grabs in this supplemental keeper draft for our two new managers. The way it works is you two will go back and forth drafting until each of you has selected 4 "keepers". Note that I noted each round that a player was drafted in last year's draft. So again, to review, if you choose a player drafted in Round 2, you lose your second round pick in this year's upcoming draft. If you choose an undrafted player you lose your last round (so 20th or if you choose 2 undrafted 20th, 19th, etc.). There's no fair way to say who goes first, so I'll just say "early bird gets the worm" and since Jack Bauer replied first, he gets first pick followed by Precious Roy and you guys will go back and forth, indicating in this thread which player you have chosen (please feel free to make ample use of the google image search and image tags to give a visual representation of your player as well!):
