American Fantasy RBI League Free Agent Thread

[Guido13]

Place your bids here, 48 hours from the original bid the player is assigned to the highest bidder... ...maximum length of contract is 4 years for free agents and you cannot exceed the 145 mil salary cap.

[ultimate7]

So we have all used up 120 million, correct? So we have 25 million to spend.

I bid 3 million on Dale Murphy, Arcade.

[TbT]

so we got currently 16 players.  just how big can our roster be then?

[Guido13]

Actually $136 Million is committed to the 16 drafted players... ...upon reviewing the other threads we settled on a $150 million dollar cap... ...and a 20 player roster cap, 16 active.

[TbT]

as elvis once said..thank yah......thank yah very much.

also how long are thier contratcs?  how does that factor into things as well.   

also i remember the deabte on FA's and who would get them cause some guys would offer longer contracts, or better pay.  uh...is there a recap or summary for this?

[ultimate7]

I bid $1 million on the following FAs

Mike Krukow, NES SP
Catfish Hunter, Arcade SP
Pedro Borbon, Arcade RP

4 million on dale

and one million on marc sullivan and one million on spike owen.

[TbT]

i believe it aint been 48 hours yet, and i'll pony up 5 mil for dale murphy.

also what happens if we drop players?  do we not retain thier contracts..ala john madden football?  or are we stuck eating them?

im still a tad in the darkj on the whole FA pool, but thats alright.

BTW guys make sure to set your dang line-ups and get em to bastardo.

[TbT]

ok more questions.  im going to be a pain in the ass on this deal, but when i sign a guy to a FA contract, can I then give him 4 years and then put him on my reserve list.  but then how does that work for our other contract year agreements?

maybe our reserves need to be signed to one each of a 1 yr, a 2yr, a 3yr, and a 4yr?  fuck this is gonna get confusificated.  i like all thats going on here, but seems we dont have a lot in concrete here to work with for all the ins and out of the FA market.

bastardo i will PM you my phone # and hopefully we can discuss this crap tonight.

TBT.

you tard.     its post like those that get you over with the dee-nee crowd around here.
glad you could add some vital components to your team.  sullivan once hit a homer for me vs mclane and it wasnt even during his 1st ab with the ph bonus.

question... who did you sub him in for? otehr than the pitcher?

[Attezzobal]

I believe he had him hitting 8th...Was this the same game where Malnu spent about ten minutes talking about how you were the worst manager ever?

EDIT: I believe I remember this home run, it was to either tie or win the game, in the room that Malnu TBT and I shared...Hmmm...

actually i think malnu claimed i was a very questionable manager when i had spillman hitting in the 8th spot(?) vs Gdavis.....i was going with quantity(of better hitters in the line-up) over quality that game.  it worked cause i remember a late homer by spillman to seal the deal vs Gdavis.   

i wasnt really ready for the tourney back then.  competent?  yeah.... somewhat, as my record was 4-5, but i didnt have all playing skills and managing ideas in proper order to really be a force.

In the boston game with the sullivan homer in place of owen, i believe i saved Henderson for a late inning at bat.  nothing id do now, but anyways it worked and got a win.  id not go against tried and true thinking, but there were a few games at the tourney where some wackly line-ups panned out for me.  just dumb luck i guess.
