2084 Draft Thread

[Karl Hungus]

This class looks pretty good- some of them aren't wheelchair-bound!

Do's:

Choose between the FOUR Belorussian comrades
Select a long-term starter at SS or 3b
Pick Ger "Assman" Asseldonk

Don'ts:
Pick the pitcher with an arthritic elbow
Hold Niven Kennerson hostage

@TonyGin&Juice Can you get the traded picks together?

@TonyGin&Juice Can you get the traded picks together?

Yes, will do TODAY babby.

@Karl Hungus - Not that I really mind @doh taking Matt Walls, but don't you normally get a chance to claim back a player that you waive?

Maybe the waiver clock ran out mid-week and you missed your chance? Not 100% sure.

 

[hayvis]

I don't mind anyway. He's better off in Vegas. He HATED Paris.

 

[Orlando]

So many Swedes

Did you DFA him as well? There's specific waiver rules that are complicated, but I believe you get one chance to pull someone back off waivers. I can't remember how OOTP models it though.

Not sure as I don't know what that is.... Whenever I've claimed players it's been under the condition that they had one chance to revoke it. I never got that chance. I've contemplated giving Walls to @doh before anyway so it doesn't matter and if I added him to our Tolny trade it would still be generous in my favour, so I have zero problems with this. I'm just interested how it works if you can explain.

 

[Yankee151]

It's honestly the most confusing part of baseball rosters so I don't know how all the details, but there are revocable and irrevocable waivers

 

[jdlikewhoa]

I thought all our waivers were irrevocable

 

[hayvis]

Probably, but when you pick someone up it always tells you it's deferring.

 

[Karl Hungus]

Draft will be up today.

Copy. Will pick in the next 30 minutes

Thanks hayvis. Day 2 of no fever and body aches. Still short of breath and have a light cough if I over exert, but it looks like I may be on the road to recovery.

 

[Mr. Radpants]

Sounds like a post nasal drip

 

[jdlikewhoa]

Who should I take as 1-1? In game file is borked

 

[Soonerfan09]

Bin Fatin if you need a pitcher, Chong if you need a 2B, possibly Grul if you need an elite fielding SS who can hit decent. Also some really good cathers and an elite closer.

Actually, there are a ton of good pitchers and it's hard to tell who is actually the best. Probably have to decide if you want a college age or HS age, control vs stuff vs movement, number of pitches, etc.

 

[jdlikewhoa]

Hopefully I picked right since ya'll sabotaged the game file and didn't put a new one up. @berlin whoever that is

Although Grul can't hit lefties, it's hard to argue against a guy that rakes against righties and will probably be an 80 defense at SS or CF.

Is there a new game file somewhere so I can reinstall the league?

The only option is Waive/DFA (put on irrevocable waivers) once you're out of options.

Thanks Doh. I hope you can get the sulky shit head to hit some dingers.

We'll never finish at this rate.

I love it when the WBL slows down. A week a day is too fast.
